Following the February 2004 introduction of the 2005 model year Tacoma, the 7th generation Hilux was unveiled on March 2, 2005 in Buenos Aires, Argentina. Market launch later began in April 2005. The Tacoma was based on the 4Runner chassis, while the Hilux rides on an revamped version of the ladder frame found on previous versions. The Hilux increased in size and then became classified as a mid-size pick up. The Tacoma had a new 4.0 L V6 engine that produces 176 kW (236 hp) and 361 N·m (266 lb·ft) of torque. Its design was very similar to the 4Runner.[16]
Hilux models sold in Australian, Middle Eastern, and Asian markets are built and assembled in Thailand, where the vehicle is called the Hilux Vigo, or simply Vigo. For the European and South African markets the Hilux is built in Durban, South Africa. As of December 2009, it is the best selling vehicle in South Africa. Those sold in South America are made in Argentina, as with the previous generation Hilux.[17] However, the engines are built in Japan (where they are also used in the Prado) instead of Argentina.[citation needed] In Asia, the Hilux Vigo platform was used as the basis for Toyota's IMV program which spawned theInnova MPV and Fortuner SUV/PPV.
In 1995, Toyota introduced a new pickup model, the Tacoma in North America, discontinuing the Hilux/Pickup there. The 4Runner is now a full SUV, and the more recent models do not resemble the Tacoma.
As of 2014, the Toyota Hilux is available worldwide, except Japan, United States, Canada, North Korea, and South Korea.
Wow, thanks for your reply, really helpful of you.I believe the Tacoma is the #1 selling mid-sized truck for the North America markets, so that is the United States and Canada. Outside of the US the Toyota pickup of choice is the Toyota Hilux truck.
What are you looking to do mostly with a new truck? You want a daily driver? Something that you can haul any specific type of gear around in? Camping? Traveling? Towing? Maybe a mixture of all of the above?
Toyota Hilux 7th Generation (from Wikipedia)
nah, not for cruising, for travel and adventure mostly!What are your plans for the truck, just want something to drive around town?
Yeah have been thinking for a while and will definitely go for a double cab truck..Well it all depends on your use and why you need but If I need to choose one then I would go with Double Cab because of more space and I like the style. You should check it.
Did you ever find anything?Been reading through this forum looking for the nicest Toyota truck to pursue, first decision came to be the Tacoma.
What should I look for I start my search for a good used truck? Anything to keep in mind or to watch out for?
Thanks for any help I do get.
