Although Toyota is not very interested in pure electric models, its models have actually begun to transition to pure electric directions, such as Toyota released a prototype of the pure electric version of the Hilux pickup truck in 2022, focusing on a sword to go sideways.
A few days ago, Toyota officially announced that its Hilux pure electric pickup truck will be put into production in the second half of 2025, and the new car will be assembled in Thailand in the future, focusing on the Southeast Asian market, after all, pickup trucks are more popular in Southeast Asia.
Combined with the previously released official pictures, the front face of the Hilux pure electric pickup truck adopts a semi-closed grille design, retains the flat air intake, and integrates a through-type LED light strip inside, connecting the blackened headlight groups on both sides, effectively stretching the horizontal visual width of the front face; The interior of the lamp cluster is integrated with a lens and decorated with a blue trim strip, highlighting the identity of the all-electric model.
The wings on both sides of the grille are designed with vertically arranged air deflectors to improve aerodynamics, and the interior is also decorated with black trim for a more aggressive style. The bottom is equipped with flat air intakes, which accentuate the layered look of the front end.
In terms of side styling, the new car adopts a single-row pickup truck shape, with a more rounded sense of line, and a similar through-type shape to the waistline, which embellishes the layering of the side of the body; The charging port is located on the front fender, and the wheels are in a five-spoke blacked-out shape, which is quite sophisticated. Anchor points are provided around the container to facilitate the holding of the cargo.
In terms of tail styling, the blackened taillight group adopts a vertical layout, the internal structure has a strong three-dimensional effect, and the lower surround part is equipped with a thick bumper, and a high-gloss chrome strip is added to decorate, and the style looks tougher.
Inside, the overall style is also of the more old-fashioned type, offering a three-spoke multi-function steering wheel, mechanical pointer instrument cluster, a built-in center control screen, and a knob-type electronic gear shift mechanism.
The specific power parameters have not yet been announced, but the official has confirmed that the cruising range of the new car is 200km, if this is the data in the no-load state, the full-load state may be shorter, which is obviously not very satisfactory, if it is the data in the full-load state, it is obviously acceptable, and the data in the no-load state is more likely at present.
