The Toyota Hilux is a alternation of bunched auto trucks produced and marketed by the Toyota Motor Corporation. Most countries acclimated the Hilux name for the absolute activity of the alternation but in North America, the Hilux name was retired in 1976 in favor of Truck, Auto Truck, or Bunched Truck. In North America the accepted advantage package, the SR5 (Sport Rally 5-Speed), was colloquially acclimated as a archetypal name for the truck, even admitting the advantage amalgamation was aswell acclimated on added Toyota models like the Corolla. In 1984, the Trekker, the camper adaptation of the Hilux, was renamed as the 4Runner in Australia and North America, and as the Hilux Surf in Japan. In 1995, Toyota alien a new auto model, the Tacoma in the United States, alternate the Hilux/Pickup there. The 4Runner is now a abounding SUV, and the added contempo models do not resemble the Tacoma.

First generation
The Hilux started assembly in March 19682 as the RN10 in short-wheelbase anatomy with a 1.5 L engine, bearing 77 PS (57 kW) in Japanese bazaar spec. This was abundant for a claimed 130 kilometres per hour (81 mph) top speed.3 This was upgraded to a 1.6 L I4 engine in February 1971.
In April 1969, a long-wheelbase adaptation was added to the range. The short-wheelbase adaptation aswell connected in assembly for abounding added years. The long-wheelbase adaptation was not awash on the North American bazaar until 1972.
In animosity of the name "Hilux", it was a awful comfortable car alone if compared to the Stout. The Hilux was engineered and accumulated by Hino Motors to alter the abate Briska4 in the alcove below the beyond Stout - it replaced the Stout absolutely in some markets. For the North American market, the alone physique appearance was a approved cab abbreviate bed and all were rear-wheel drive. It acclimated a archetypal barter bureaucracy of A-arms and braid springs in foreground and a reside arbor with blade springs in back. A four-speed chiral manual was standard.
Global markets:
1968-1971 - 1.5 L (1,490 cc) 2R I42
1971-1972 - 1.6 L (1,587 cc) 12R I42
North American markets:
1969 - 1.9 L (1,897 cc) 3R I4, 63 kW (86 PS; 84 hp)
1970-1971 - 1.9 L (1,858 cc) 8R SOHC I4, 72 kW (98 PS; 97 hp)
1972 - 2.0 L (1,968 cc) 18R SOHC I4, 81 kW (110 PS; 109 hp)
Second generation
In May 1972,2 the 1973 archetypal year Hilux was appear as the RN20. A added adequate autogenous was defined forth with exoteric updates. A 2.3 m (7.5 ft) "long bed" was an advantage for the aboriginal time in North America, although such a adaptation had been accessible common back April 1969.2
The Hilux was radically redesigned in 1975 to be beyond and added luxurious. In North America the new adaptation aswell meant the addition of the appreciably beyond (2.2 L) 20R engine and the SR5 flush trim package. A five-speed chiral manual became optional. In North America, the Hilux name was absolutely phased out in favor of "Truck" by that year, accepting been alone from brochures and commercial starting in 1973.
Global markets:
1972-1978 - 1.6 L (1,587 cc) 12R I42
1974-1978 - 2.0 L (1,968 cc) 18R I42
North American markets:
1973-1974 - 2.0 L (1,968 cc) 18R SOHC I4, 81 kW (110 PS; 109 hp)
1975-1978 - 2.2 L (2,189 cc) 20R SOHC I4, 72 kW (98 PS; 97 hp)
Third generation
The redesigned Hilux was alien in August 1978,2 with a 4WD alternative alien in Jan 1979.2 The 4WD alternative - not offered with any engines abate than the two-litre "18R" - featured some accepted technology with the beyond Toyota Land Cruiser.4 Assembly of the four-wheel drives chock-full in July 1983, but some 2WD variations connected in alongside with the next generation.2 The L alternation agent engine was offered on the 2WD variants from September 1979 and the 4WD variants in March 1983.2
In North America the Hilux saw the use of four-wheel drive. It had a solid foreground arbor and blade suspension. The physique saw a redesign that included individual annular headlights and a beneath circuitous body. This new 4WD bureaucracy featured a accessory apprenticed RF1A alteration case. This alteration case is different in that its low-range abridgement allocation can be replicated, application what some accredit to as a bifold or amateur alteration case. This after-effects in a abundant lower all-embracing accessory ratio.5 It was the aboriginal Hilux accessible with an automated transmission.
1982 aggregation cab pickup
In 1981 a car development acceding was accustomed amid Toyota, Winnebago Industries and two added aftermarket customizers. This was to acquiesce Toyota to access the SUV bazaar in North America. The cars which resulted from this accord were the Trekker (Winnebago), Wolverine, and the Trailblazer (Griffith). All three acclimated the Hilux 4×4 RV cab and chassis, and an all-fiberglass rear area (the Trailblazer had a animate bed with a fiberglass top). There were at atomic 1,500 Trekkers, 400 Trailblazers and an alien amount of Wolverines awash in North America. Research and development plan on the Trekker led to the development of the 4Runner/Hilux Surf, which was appear in 1984.
Toward the end of the SR5's assembly run (1983½ archetypal year), Toyota alien the affluence Mojave for the US bazaar as a limited-production (3,500 units) archetypal with options not accessible on any added Toyota pickup.6 List priced at US$8,308,6 it featured brazier seats, two-speaker circuitous radio, chrome foreground and rear bumpers, and no Toyota logo on either the grille or tailgate.6 Cruise control, ability steering, and air conditioning were optional.6 It was powered by the SR5's accepted 2.4 L (150 cu in) inline four.6

1981-1983-1.8 L preflow, 4-speed chiral (Australia)
1978-1980-2.2 L (2,189 cc) 20R SOHC I4, 67 kW (91 PS; 90 hp) at 4,800 rpm and 165 N·m (122 ft·lbf) of torque at 2,400 rpm
1981-1983-2.4 L (2,366 cc) 22R SOHC I4, 98 PS; 97 hp (72 kW) at 4,800 rpm and 175 N·m (129 ft·lbf) of torque at 2,800 rpm

Fourth generation
The August 1983 redesign (sold as archetypal year 1984 cars in North America) alien the Xtracab, two-row continued cab option. These "1984" models agitated over the carbureted 22R engine while archetypal year 1985 saw the addition of the ammunition injected 22R-E. Two agent engines were aswell offered, the 2L and the turbocharged 2L-T. The diesels were discontinued in the U.S. afterwards the 1986 archetypal year, this was due to college achievement expectations from barter and the advanced availability of bargain gasoline. The next year saw the addition of a turbocharged option, the 22R-TE, conceivably due to accretion antagonism from Nissan who already offered a V6 barter at this time. The solid foreground arbor was swapped out for an absolute foreground suspension/torsion bar bureaucracy in the 4×4 archetypal in 1986, and alternative automated foreground locking hubs and an cyberbanking alteration case was added as well. A V6 engine was alien in 1988. The Hilux-based 4Runner which fabricated its access in Australia, North America and the United Kingdom was based on this bearing Hilux; in some added markets, such as Japan, it was alleged the Hilux Surf.
Toyota alien a new bearing of the Hilux in a lot of markets in backward 1988 but the fourth bearing remained in assembly until 1997 in South Africa. Toyota says this was due to South African "content laws" which fabricated it cheaper to abide to aftermath the fourth bearing Hilux, rather than to retool the bulb for the fifth generation.7
