2025 Toyota Hilux GR Sport II Interior Design

Over 55 years, the Toyota Hilux has earned an unparalleled reputation. It demonstrates its strength and reliability day after day, all over the world: on any terrain and in the most challenging conditions. Over the years, Toyota has continuously evolved its legendary pickup truck to meet and exceed the evolving needs and expectations of its customers. The ever-improving design, technical innovations, greater comfort, more power, and advanced safety technology create an ideal balance between off-road capability and confident on-road handling. Now, Toyota is about to launch two new models with which it meets the most important needs of modern customers and continues the Hilux success story. For the first time, the Hilux will feature an electrified powertrain – benefiting from Toyota's unrivaled expertise in this field. The 48V mild hybrid system not only increases efficiency but also gives the rugged all-rounder more refined driving characteristics with less noise and vibration. The classic Hilux virtues for everyday use and leisure are, of course, retained: load capacity, towing capacity, and off-road capabilities are the same as the non-hybrid models, including fording through deep water. The second new addition is the Hilux GR Sport II: The new top-of-the-line model in the series, with its powerful design elements, delivers a strong emotional appeal and appeals to customers who want to express their personal style and character with their vehicle. In addition, there are numerous technical improvements that make this model the best Hilux ever – whether off-road or on the highway.
