Car Profiles - Toyota Hilux

TOYOTA HILUX

Nearly 10 years after, it still has that toughness that this truck is associated. GPS Navigation ready head unit adds sprinkle for this otherwise aging truck. VNT equipped 2.5 models makes a wise buy, as long as you don't need 4WD. A TRD model may signal an upcoming model is coming.

The Good: Durable
The Bad: Getting old

Price Range: P865,000-P1,505,000
