2024 Toyota Hilux 48V Hybrid Design Preview

Toyota’s updated HiLux range with 48-volt technology on select 4x4 double-cab automatic models will be priced from $54,130 for the SR cab chassis when it goes on sale in March, providing superb value, improved performance and efficiency, and a raft of equipment upgrades.

The new fuel-saving powertrain technology – named V-Active Technology – will be optional on SR 4x4 double-cab automatic variants and standard on SR5 and Rogue 4x4 double cab automatic versions.

In a HiLux-first, all models fitted with V-Active Technology also feature Toyota’s Multi-Terrain Select off-road system (MTS) that offers six selectable modes to help improve traction in a range of conditions.

When in high range, MTS can be configured in Dirt, Sand, Mud, Deep Snow and Auto modes, while switching to low range offers Sand, Mud, Auto and Rock modes to provide the ideal mix of traction control in any situation.

Toyota Australia Vice President Sales, Marketing and Franchise Operations Sean Hanley said the addition of V-Active Technology on select 4x4 double-cab models offered outstanding value, while delivering improved performance and efficiency.
