The new model Hilux takes into the 21st century compared to the prior model - from and engine perspective.

The new 3.0 litre Turbo Diesel is 120Kw, and 343nm from below 2000 rpm to over 3000rpm. The V6 petrol is straight from the 120 series Prado, with over 175kw on tap.

If thats not enough from the TD engine, just add a Diesel Tuning Module and boost it to over 140kw and over 400nm in under 30 minutes. That makes it quite sporty, and even has a weight advantage over the bigger 4x4's too boot.

The petrol is no slouch either, but moves along a bit better with a set of (custom) extractors. Opening the exhaust system helps both engines even more.

Reports are that some offroad ability has been lost on the (ex factory config), but I guess that the same applied to the previous model too, after moving away from a solid axle configuration. OME are supposed to be addressing the suspension issue right now.
