The HiLux is now available as an EV. But the results are shocking... Subscribe here: youtube.com/@therightcar?sub_confirmation=1
There are a few grades available, but none of them come cheap, and none of them have very much EV driving range.
Then there's the changes to the drive experience... some good, but others definitely not.
So is this an answer to a question no-one was asking? Not necessarily. But sheesh, you're really going to have to want one to justify the asking price!

I am aiming to review every new car on the market that people actually buy, to help new-car customers like you, or curious car enthusiasts (maybe also like you) get the right steer when it comes to choosing a new set of wheels.
If you're looking for a car for yourself, monitoring the market and hunting for the latest info, or even if you've just bought your new car and you're looking to see what experts like me think about it, The Right Car will offer you something of value.
