Hilux in 2026 — what's new

The current Toyota Hilux is the 2026-generation Travo/Travo-e line, with Malaysia getting the electric Hilux EV as a Thai CBU. It arrives after Toyota’s local EV teasers and leaked pricing, then the confirmed Malaysian launch at RM226k. The Malaysian range is simple: one EV, single-ratio automatic, five seats, 59.2 kWh battery and 257 km range. Japan also gets the 2026 Hilux, but its launch centres on a high-spec 2.8-litre diesel.

Verdict

The Toyota Hilux has long been a familiar name in Malaysian pickup circles, and the EV gives that nameplate a very different brief. It is electric truck buying rather than the diesel default. The hard numbers are simple: 257 km of range, 193 hp and RM226,300. That makes it clearly dearer than the JAC T9 EV, so the Toyota badge and Hilux identity need to matter to the buyer.
