2023 Toyota Hilux range boosted by Xtra features

The Toyota Hilux has been a mainstay of SA’s motoring landscape for years, consistently topping the light commercial vehicle (LCV) sales and overall charts.

With four body configurations — single, Xtra, chassis and double-cab — the Hilux has a model to suit every driver’s needs. Now, with ever-evolving customer demands, Toyota has made some key changes to the Hilux product line-up to continue meeting the needs of drivers countrywide.

One of the most significant changes is to the Xtra Cab, the Legend grade of which now includes Toyota Safety Sense (TSS) 2.0, an active safety system that includes a pre-collision system, high-speed-range adaptive cruise control and lane-departure alert.

The TSS operation can be adjusted via dedicated steering switches or the multi-information display (MID). Exterior mirrors now also incorporate a welcome light feature, as seen in the double-cab Legend models.

As part of a second wave of Legend-grade alignment, all double-cab models now boast the same specification level, including 4x2 variants, which previously omitted the JBL audio. This upgrade means the Legend grade now offers a power-adjustable driver’s seat, leather interior, TSS, that aforementioned premium JBL nine-speaker audio system, dual-zone climate control and a smart-entry system.

For Raised Body Auto transmission models (Raider and Legend), there is now an automatic transmission temperature warning, which reports AT operation when driving on steep terrain or conveying heavy loads. This addition allows for greater peace of mind for drivers who rely on their Hilux for work or adventure.

The existing colour palette remains, offering buyers a choice of seven hues on single-cab models, while Xtra and double-cab models can also be specified in Platinum White, with Attitude Black reserved for double-cab duty. Additionally, customers can inquire about the availability of Sand Beige units, available across all three body shapes in limited production numbers.
