Verdict
The Toyota Hilux Revo N80 is the cheaper workhorse at RM87,152: diesel, manual, all-wheel drive, 148 hp and 400 Nm, but only two seats and three airbags. The Toyota Hilux AN220/AN230 asks RM226,300 and goes electric, with dual motors, 193 hp, a 59.2 kWh battery and 257 km range; it also adds five seats, seven airbags and AEB. For Malaysian buyers, the newer truck buys cabin and safety kit, not wheelbase, which stays 3,085 mm.
Pick the Toyota Hilux Revo N80 if you want the lower purchase price, diesel torque, a manual gearbox and only need two seats.
Pick the Toyota Hilux AN220/AN230 if you need five seats, electric drive, more airbags and AEB, and can live with 257 km of EV range.
