The all-new Toyota Hilux: model range and prices revealed
The all-new ninth-generation Toyota Hilux has landed, and Toyota’s taken its legendary workhorse and dragged it kicking and screaming into the digital age with sharper styling, more tech than your average teenager’s bedroom, and enough off-road wizardry to make muddy lanes feel like the M1. On-road manners are improved too, meaning it should no longer feel quite so agricultural when you’re nipping to Lidl for milk and accidentally coming back with a kayak and a roof tent.
Big news comes under the bonnet as well, because Hilux is entering the electrified era. Alongside the new Diesel 48V hybrid setup, there’s now a fully electric Hilux for the first time ever. Yes, an electric Hilux. Somewhere in Australia a farmer has just dropped his flat white in shock. Still, it’s all part of Toyota’s “multipath” strategy — basically giving buyers different powertrain options depending on whether they spend their weekends green-laning, towing diggers, or silently judging EV charging queues.
Toyota’s simplified things this time round too. The new Hilux will only come as a Double Cab, meaning five seats as standard. Handy if you’ve got kids, dogs, mates, or a collection of muddy waterproofs that smell faintly of wet Labrador. A two-seat commercial conversion will follow later in 2026 for those who prefer maximum load space and minimum passengers.
The Diesel 48V range kicks off with the Active model, which now gets a decent chunk of safety kit thanks to upgraded Toyota Safety Sense systems. It also gains a digital driver display, rear deck step and electric power steering. Which means manoeuvring in town should now require less upper-body strength than wrestling a stubborn sheep.
Move up to Icon spec and things get posher. You’ll get 17” alloys, heated front seats, a chunky 12.3” Toyota Smart Connect infotainment system, Apple CarPlay, Android Auto, and wireless charging. Basically, everything you need to pretend you’re working while parked in a lay-by eating a sausage roll.
Invincible trim adds part-leather seats, electric driver adjustment, a larger digital display and an auto-dimming rear-view mirror — ideal for avoiding temporary blindness from Dave in his lifted Ranger with LED suns strapped to the grille.
Then there’s the range-topping Invincible X, which turns the Hilux’s already imposing road presence up to eleven. You get unique 18-inch alloys, a high-over bar, drop-in load liner and extra badging so everyone at the campsite knows you spent the extra money. Inside, there’s a JBL sound system, heated rear seats and a Multi-Terrain Monitor to help stop you parking your £50k pick-up nose-first into a bog.
The all-electric Hilux arrives in two trim levels. Icon models get alloy wheels, side steps, Multi-Terrain Select and Downhill Assist Control, while the electric Invincible adds leather upholstery, wireless charging and LED headlights. So yes, you can now silently crawl through the woods while listening to Fleetwood Mac in near-luxury. Strange times.
Toyota says full technical specs and equipment details are coming soon, alongside pricing information. What we do know is that the electric Hilux qualifies for the UK’s £5,000 plug-in van grant, which softens the financial blow slightly. Deliveries for the EV model start in mid-June, while the Diesel 48V arrives in July.
Either way, the Hilux looks ready to continue its reign as the go-to truck for farmers, adventurers, tradespeople and people who simply enjoy reversing trailers badly in public.
