From the heat of the latest Ford Ranger Raptor.

 That’s almost no drag causing many brands to adjust their marketing plans for high-performance pickup trucks—not even market leader Toyota , which just launched.

2023 Toyota HiLux GR Sport that everyone is seeing now It is not a car that is currently sold in our country, but that is exported to the Australian market for Toyota customers in the same country. Both hoped the camp would create a high-performance pickup truck to rival the new Ford Ranger Raptor as well.

And from those calls this makes the famous Toyota pick-up truck has been developed to be stronger in every aspect , starting with the exterior decoration that although the car will still come with the original body but a new front bumper has been installed. A new grille helps make the car look more aggressive and the same serious fit as the crank guard below. And a pair of front and rear tow hooks with the logo saying it’s a design inspired by the trademark Dakar Rally racer.

Not only did this by widening the wheelbase to be wider both front, another 140 mm and back another 155 mm (compared to the regular all-wheel drive version of the Hilux Revo) , caused Toyota to install a set of additional wheel arch eyebrows for it. Not only is it useful in a dingy situation but it also adds more power to the car

The improvements in the suspension are not over yet. Because it has also been customized in terms of new, more durable front wings, increase the stiffness of the front shock spring, strengthen the rear axle, and install a monotube shock absorber on the back (such as Thailand’s REVO GR Sport) to increase the shock absorption capacity. And reduce the problem of heat build-up during use

During the braking system the rear was changed to a ventilated finned disc brake, operating with single-pot floating brake calipers. The front brake, though still a disc brake, has ventilated fins. There was no additional groove. But it works with 4 fixed brake calipers.

In the wheel set though are 17-inch alloy wheels (not 18-inch like the REVO GR Sport in Thailand now), but with high-cheek A/T tires, Bridgestone Dueler and new suspension improvements. Which makes the car higher, therefore, its ground clearance is 265 mm, and the angle of departure is 30 and 26 degrees, respectively.

To which Toyota states that all of the aforementioned suspension settings will not reduce the usability in the daily life of the car in any way and at the same time, it allows customers to take it to overcome various obstacles on the gravel road in a more enjoyable way as well.

Of course, there is one more thing that everyone wants to know. On the strength I’ve learned to be honest it’s still a bit disappointing. The latter still uses the 2.8-liter four-cylinder diesel engine with the normal Hilux Revo engine.

Only this time, the campers have modified the new turbo . And adjust the new oil supply to make it have 10% more power to reach 224hp at 3000rpm and a maximum torque of 550Nm at 2800rpm, which is already enough to use. But still not enough to compete with the newest Ranger Raptor anyway.

In addition, the transmission system, which is a six-speed automatic transmission, has been modified a little more. For more agile up-and-down gear changes whether in automatic driving mode or when using the paddle shifter to manually adjust the steering wheel

Inner work This does not seem to be the point on which the camp focuses much. Because if compared to the regular HiLux, it will be distinct from the original car. In the middle of the GR’s screen front, the steering wheel has a red center strip. The lower bar is affixed with the GR logo, and the head cushion is embroidered with the GR pattern

Where the cover material is a mixture of fabrics. faux leather, the accelerator is sport aluminum, otherwise the rest of the interior is accented in all shades of black. There is no red thread in any way. Except for the seat belt only.

According to Toyota Australia officials, the 2023 Toyota HiLux GR Sport has been launched. It is a car manufactured in Thailand. Only a few parts were subsequently produced and assembled in Australia

It’s also a camp-developed vehicle. The main target groups are Toyota engineers in Australia, Toyota’s parent company engineers in Japan, Toyota engineers in Latin America (another target continent for this small car.) And finally, Toyota Thailand engineers , which is the main production base for this car.

So when combined with the fact that the car was tested in Thailand for a while last year so you don’t have to ask each other at all that it has a chance of going off at our house a lot but when will it happen? You still have to wait to follow each other closely from now on
