Toyota Hilux Invincible for the European market

Hilux Invincible-07

The compact hatchback may be the European car of choice, but everyone needs their workhorses. And when it comes to one-tonne pick-up trucks, the Toyota Hilux is the default choice, whether as a rugged ute in Australia or a low rider with cargo twice its height in Thailand. Success doesn’t come overnight – its reputation has been bulit over 46 years, with sales now totalling around 15 million units.

Today, lifestyle sales are of growing importance to the pick-up market. In Europe, of the current DLX, DLX+, SR and SR+ Hilux variants, the range-topping SR+ versions represent over 40% of the mix in many leading markets. And in recognition of the pick-up’s role to dual-usage customers, the European Hilux line-up is being extended to include a new range topping ‘Invincible’ grade.

Hilux Invincible-03

Available in Extra Cab or Double Cab form, the Invincible Active features a silver front underguard, chrome air-intake, fog lamp and rear lamp bezels, and ‘Invincible’ door badging. The new all black interior features matching black fabric seats, a soft padded armrest, a leather handbrake, light grey roof lining and ‘Invincible’ scuff plates.

The Hilux Invincible Sport adds chrome hi-bars, and the optional availability of a new hard-top, chrome side bars, new 17-inch dual-tone alloy wheels and full leather seats in black.

The Hilux Invincble is available in eight exterior body colours, including this hero blue shade, and with a choice of four powertrains: 2.5 litre D-4D engine with manual transmission and either 2WD or 4WD, or a 3.0 litre D-4D unit with manual or automatic transmission and 4WD.

      I still prefer fabric seat. It’s grip my body much better than leather seat. When I sat in a Volvo or Mercedes and even Camry, I keep sliding from a side to another.

    just realise that Toyota Malaysia never introduces any Special Editions of Hilux at all.. compared to Triton or D-Max… the original Hilux is powerful enough to support the local market like a boss!
