The Toyota Hilux that we know today in 2023 did not just become that overnight. It is a state-of-art work that included sweat, skill, and talent that has been evolving for over 50 years. This piece takes you down the memory lane of where the Toyota Hilux was born.
1968-1972
The idea was born here. Call them the first-generation Hilux. The first Toyota Hilux was manufactured by Hino Motors Ltd with the term “Hilux” being an acronym of “high” and “luxury”. It had an engine capacity of 1.5 liters with a four-speed manual transmission. It accommodates up to three occupants with a payload of 1,000 kilograms. The engine was upgraded from 1.5-liter capacity to 1.6 in 1971.
