Toyota Australia has announced local pricing and specifications for the 2026 Toyota HiLux range, which enters local showrooms in December. Priced from $33,990 plus on-road costs, the cost of entry to the HiLux range has climbed by $6260, though the 2.8-litre turbo-diesel is now standard across the range and both safety and technology features have been improved.

A major facelift rather than an all-new model, the 2026 Toyota HiLux gains new front and rear exterior styling, as well as an all-new interior with standard features such as a 12.3-inch touchscreen with live services across the range.

Upper-spec models, such as the SR5, add new features to the HiLux range such as a 12.3-inch digital driver’s display, while the HiLux Rugged X has also returned to the range. As before, the model range will consist of the entry-level WorkMate, mid-spec SR and SR5 and top-spec Rogue, with the new Rugged X sitting on the same level as the latter model but with more off-road features.

The 2026 Toyota HiLux range uses the same ‘1GD-FTV’ 2.8-litre four-cylinder turbo-diesel engine as the current model, with either six-speed manual or six-speed automatic transmissions (depending on the model). Outputs have not changed, with automatic variants making 150kW/500Nm and the manual making less torque at 420Nm but the same 150kW of power.

The 2.7-litre petrol and 2.4-litre turbo-diesel engines in the current HiLux range are no longer available, while certain variants are fitted with Toyota’s 48-volt system with an 8.5kW/65Nm electric motor generator and DC/DC converter for improved driving feel during take-off.
