Figures taken from the manufacturer: source. Anything we could not verify is left out rather than estimated. Specifications change by model year and configuration - confirm with the supplier before relying on them.

Before you quote these figures

Payload varies by cab style and by engine/transmission on the Double Cab; a Double Cab exceeding 3,500 kg gross train weight (vehicle plus loaded trailer) may require a category B+E or C1 licence depending on the combination.

Who uses it

The Hilux is bought in the UK on a reputation for durability rather than outright payload, and its 3.5 tonne braked towing capacity across the range makes it a common choice for trades that also tow plant or trailers.

Closest alternative

The model most often cross-shopped against the Hilux is the Ford Ranger.

We do not hold verified figures for it yet, so there is no side-by-side to link to.

Looking for one?

Most companies carry several makes and advertise none of them. Find the firms covering your area and ask what is on the yard.
