Hilux are for buyers who will keep their truck forever. I bought a Hilux not for 0-60mph but for longevity and easy on the pocket maintenance.
Idiot it will last forever if you maintain properly right on schedule.
I wouldn’t keep a hilux for a day let alone forever. My 2017 Ranger Xlt has 240000 kms and haven’t had to do anything apart from std servicing. Had a 2016 hilux before that and will never buy another one. Uncomfortable, slow money pits with way less kit than a Ranger. Not to mention every time my hilux pooped itself it was off the rd for days costing me thousands in lost revenue coz I couldn’t work. Pre 2016 hilux generations were the ones that go forever. IMO
And you wish u have a v6 ranger
@@tyzon00800or Raptor
You’ve obviously still have your 90’s Hilux (forever car)!
Toyotas just aren’t that much better anymore and you just can’t justify the price difference, and nearly no one keeps them for more than 5 years, especially those that buy them for tax purposes, which is a huge proportion of buyers.
I get the feeling that If it wasnt for James incompetent driving it would have been three straight wins for the ranger😅
Even if the toyota loses, I'm still team toyota!!!
Right on
@@rynophillip4406blind loyalty to the wannabee?
@@siegmac3267 even though i would choose a falcon for a sedan any day. Any other category I too would choose a Toyota. Just the more reliable vehicle.
@@rynophillip4406 i'm glad Toyota fanboys exist. Some poor cunt bought my 2016 Toyota with a smokey DPF for $45,000. I then bought the New Ranger Raptor and the thing is a blast to drive. Lightyears and multigenerational difference in everything. It's like comparing a Jet vs a tractor. So I thank that Toyota for buying my faulty turd of a car and enabled me to buy a high performance UTE for a little bit more money! haha
Would be good if Toyota gave the GR Hilux the 3.3l 227kw 700nm option.
👌🏼👌🏼
I really hope that toyota comes out with a proper gr hilux for the next generation
Toyota know people will still buy their crap .. basically they are like apple.... If only ford was more reliable... Toyota would step their game up
That engine doesn’t fit in hilux
As well as the 10 speed instead of that heavily outdated 6 speed.
Imagine if Mazda/Isuzu stick the inline 6 diesel from the CX60 in the BT-50/Dmax.....
Omg, mind blown. They would take the whole market, in-line 6 is engine perfection
Even the petrol too! It would be amazing, fingers crossed.
They won't because it will be kaput before the warranty is over
yeah but the 4jj is reliable
2:17 Paul is thinking about dinner already 😂😂
I've been waiting for this. Thank you @CarExpert.
🙌
It looks like Paul went into the office and said, who is the worst driver here I can race against, James put his hand up and said I don't know the first thing about getting a car off the line quick, Paul said lets go James 🤣🤣😂😂
I’d be keen to know if James was even loading up the torque converter, or mashed the throttle after Sean finished saying “go”.
James ruined this video... 😢
@@CM303898 Looks like he wasn't you can see Paul's Hilux Lurched off the line, James just doddle off the line
But James won every single race in his computer games! LOL
Damn, I wish the GR Sport Hilux would have a bit of a power upgrade like adding a V6 from the LC 300 Series even if it costs a little more. I mean the all new GR spec CH-R is getting a 30kw power increase over its regular spec!?! Awesome drag race Paul and the team at Car Expert for putting this one together. Another idea of though, you could add a Navara Warrior or the Triton GSR to go up against the 4cyl Ranger and GR Hilux even some of the Chinese competitors.
LC300 is having oil burning issues. Toyota has never been the best when it comes to car power performance but better at longevity
Probably the Next generation will get the V6 or 2.4 petrol engine with more power
Toyota - Built cheap, sold expensive.
@@ev0wattoyota always consider reliability first than power.
@@southerncomfort2792 I just said that.
Paul,
These tests you guys carry out are great including the 4wd testing and towing vids - it would be a good comparison to put the approx onroad costs (as per the vehicle tested) against the vehicles as a perspective comparrison. After all, at some point it is a trade off in the decision making process for the purchaser between performance, suitability, comfort, reliability, towing capacity, cargo size etc etc against price - which can make a big difference in the outcome decision to buy.
Love these video comparisons so we don’t need to go out test driving them all ourselves, just watch car expert 😅 so now we know what to expect in the way of performance with the Ute we choose.
Exactly!
@@CarExpertAus Oh What a 'Horrible' Feeling! Poor Toyota purchasers...
I love watching your videos..
Watching all the way from PNG✌️
Even tho you had a much better launch, the 4 cyl ranger did pretty good catching up
James first time drag racing? He messed up the start 5 times in a row?
Nice review ford is known for power and performance while toyota is best known for reliability
Toyota got everything!
@@densepada2848 not true
@@densepada2848No toyota doesn’t, toyota is shit
Old Toyota good new rubbish
Not anymore, Toyota 2000 - 2012 model was the best
Can we see how it goes if the Rangers are on 4A or best modes, also on Sport? Toyota's miss for not giving it the capability.
Got GR sport Hilux very happy easy maintenance always reliable
I wonder how the GR sport performs when towing. And the land cruiser 79 series performance when towing
I have a Toyota kluger can I change it to diesel which type is the best kindly advise
Paul you jumped the gun on every run.😊
That's the only way the Hilux can do any good ! They need a better starting system, every drag race video is the same.
It's just a theory, and I'm happy to be wrong. But is the Hilux just stronger right off idle. So it appears that it was getting the jump??
@@billybob1511 yeah but most people dont use their hiluxs for drag races
@@80serieslandcruisertell that to the 20 year olds here in south africa
@@jean-claudehattingh9229 lucky this wasnt in africa mate
Love the detail you go to with your reviews Paul. Always on the lookout for the next video release. Don’t get drag racing dual cabs. Certainly not high on my list when evaluating my next purchase.
Muy bien video se ve la comparación de la Hilux GR y aunque su fuerte no sea la velocidad se ve que con un competidor directo da la talla porque recordemos que la Ranger raptor es un segmento en prestaciones y precio totalmente diferente
Theory is this GR Hilux was designed to compete against the last gen raptor biturbo and Toyota have been caught off guard with the V6 Rangers
That's Toyota's problem. Designing something to compete with something else that's already under power and out dated. It's like apple. Their phones at 10 years behind but people still but them. Toyota should either not dropped engine size and beefed up the 3L. Or should of offered to engine sizes and put the V6 land cruiser engine in it. 💯 Toyota's fault.
@@willbuschmann2345 Exactly. I was a huge Hilux fan but started realizing that the Rangers were so much better value for money. I bought the Wildtrack instead of the Raptor in the previous generation because I didn't think the Raptor was worth the extra money, but the current generation definitely is. And I switched to Samsung as well
@@Anonymous-xl9pq except my 7 years+ 8th gen hilux had zero issues while rangers owners had lighter wallet from the maintaining it
@@Anonymous-xl9pqI know two people with engine problems already with the new ranger there fast but junk
Next time include the triton in a drag race, I am not surprised the hilux struggled to beat any version of the ranger in a race
The guy driving the ranger also launched each ranger terribly, the bi turbo would have probably won if the driver was more experienced.
We've owned a couple of those 2 litre Fords. Obviously, long-term durability is still mostly unknown. But man, they punch above their weight. When towing is just as impressive. And they do this all whilst making minimal noise and harshness.
Did you have the power button on?
Be good to see you review an XLS 2L with tech pack (as you've tested all of the other Rangers). They're a fair bit lighter too so would be nice to see the 0-100 times.
@user-vk4vd7vr5t Of course it is. I'd like to see, couldn't care less what you think 🤡
im am on the road of buying a new 4wd, and i think its a toss up between the gr sports and the v6 wildtrak, love to see a comparison. cheers
You should have swapped drivers Paul, and seen what happened. I think if you were driving the Rangers the results would have been even more embarrassing for Toyota.
There promoting Ford ranger bro
It's nice battling 😃😀😀
In every single one of these races, either Paul jumped the start or the Ford driver was too slow. The Bi-Turbo Ranger would have beaten the GR if they both launched simultaneously. Re-do the Bi-Turbo vs GR Race again.
The previous Ranger Raptor only had the bi turbo and everyone complained about that. The 10 speed auto is more responsible for keeping the race close, rather than engine outputs. The 6 speed toyota gearbox isn't in the same league. The new Hilux better be damn good
22 Ranger Lariat, Black Widow package, tuned by Livernoise 350hp on E30. 3" lift on 33s, dealer prepped so it retained full warranty....Love it. Only reason I'd go Toyota next purchase, they're not following the EV hype like most manufacturers..
Please can you do the same with Triton Vgt Athlete to 3.2 Ranger and Navara or an Dmax..?
Would like to see how much of a difference the rangers 4A mode would have made
My F150, if I put it in sport mode it goes into 4A also.
How is the livability and the upgraded feeling being in each cabin? I'm just wondering if Toyota has any kind of advantage whatsoever!
Unfortunately its just reliability and good resale value you get from yotas. Theyre boring cars but would get you from a-b without issues just slower.
Love to see a range of tests between all the Toyota 4wd models… 79 series v prado v hilux v whatever
Would love to have seen the older Amarok V6 258 in this test. Mine was an absolute rocket ship compared to all other trucks I have owned. Including my new Wildtrak Bi Turbo
Have you tried Global Dominion Financing Inc. for car financing or car refinancing (Sangla OR/CR)?
Thank you.
Any chance of a segment showing emergency braking distances for all the 4wds with a 2tonne van on the back from 110kmh to 0 and maybe include a couple of normal cars to compare against for reference?
We did this (albeit with no load) in our recent Ute towing test video. You can extrapolate stopping distance with load. We also have a spreadsheet with all stopping distances for cars we have tested. Link to that is in the description of any of our regular reviews.
How does the petrol Amarok compare in accelaration to all these?
Amarok very bad car
Would be interesting to see the "at the wheels" power and torque output of the GR vs the 150/500 version.
I think very little if any.... Gearbox lockup software is responsible for better performance if you ask me. I have driven both and have asked many a dealer if the same G/Box as the mapping as in the GR can be had on the 150kw version, but nobody knows much about it.....
All these new Fast and the Furious 4x4 utes, but really, you should be doing a drag race with a loaded back and trailer.
James you have to work on those reaction times buddy! Fun to watch comparo boys👍
Need one with sr5 nd gr sport, also with wildtrack x
Do you run the hilux with the power button on and trans in s mode?
Yes to power mode - and it makes no difference. It’s a throttle calibration. When you go to 100% throttle it doesn’t matter if power mode is on or not. S mode also makes no difference - it just holds to a maximum gear.
Toyota must bring the 3,3 v6 diesel and 3,5v6 petrol
The ford ranger raptor just looks amazing 😍😍
I think Toyota will never give any bigger engine than the 2.8 diesel.Because they kept the same 2.8 diesel engine in new prado.If they want petrol engine they should go to Lexus gx550.If they want to give petrol engine to Hilux,They would give hybrid engine from other Toyota truck like Tacoma
I'm ready for new gen Hilux petrol V6 from the Lexus but that'll never happen I think. I'm not at all interested in 2.8 with DPF and EGR and 150kw! If Ford brings out a detuned petrol V6 Ranger it's going to be a huge success and I heard it's under development.
Good job
Low key carwow vibes and i’m all here for it
Thanks
😂😂😂you haven't even finished your line "good start" here he goes😂😂in the same sentence
Will we ever see v6 or maybe iforce max in the GRsport
Hope so!
Fat chance as the new Prado only getting the same 2.8 diesel 😢
Long way to go Hilux GR-S. New model would be the contender for Ranger model. BTW, some Sale Agent in my area, GR-S means Grab Ready-Sport. lol
Did you press the power button makes it a hell of a lot more responsive
Think he forgot about that.
Would be keen to see these drag races with Wright in back, and maybe trailer with weight in back. To see how well they do with weight
We did something similar recently in our mega Ute test. We used a trailer dyne and measured performance times from 0-100.
Are both pick ups on the sport/power mode?
Think he forgot to push the button in the Hilux.
Out of curiosity. Did you have the power button depressed on the Hilux? During your review of it, you said it sharpened up the throttle response noticeably.
Should have used the flappy paddles - good for an extra 100kw
Just give the hilux a hybrid v6 with atleast 350hp to keep up because there is no point of buying the GR when it is just a badge
You could make a pretty good argument that any Toyota is sold just because of the badge. They're not class leading in any segment They're also burning all their loyal customers with ridiculous price rises multiple times per year. There's going to be a massive fall in Toyota sales in the next few years once the Chinese and/or Indians get their act together.
@@trimat2016na mate. That’s called the Toyota advantage
Are they made for race?
The wildtrack had an advantage with the bed cover and rear spoilers.
Try swapping drivers for second runs?
Great idea! Might try that for the next one.
@@CarExpertAusalso try with 4A Sport please. Toyota's fault for not having AWD. No need to handicap the Rangers
are those 2 ranger 2.0?
Thanks mate for all insights, really valuable....💪
I am Toyota fan and looking into buy a UTE upcoming December.
But, I noted even GR Sport or Rough are no upto latest interior improvements compared to the competitiveness, though I cannot expect similar lifetime, maintenance, endurance, some basic factors with my mind to keep the car for the next decade.
What are your thoughts?
I believe I will travel minimum 10,000 - 20,000 per annum as the work vehicle with the ute. We have a Rav4 hybrid for personal uses at home that also drive 10,000 - 20,000 per year.
Some say, maintenance, lifetime depend on the user and usages plus brand/ make does not matter.
Can this apply with Raptor vs Hilux?
Cheers
Can u do offroad comparison between this utes.
The true Ranger competitor to the Hilux GR Sport is actually the Wildtrak X (which is none of these models).
It’s a higher, wider, more off-road focussed 4 cylinder diesel Ranger.
That would be the true comparison.
There is in fact a V6 Hilux GRS available now.
Don't forget to mention the lack of GCM with the GR Hilux, towing Toyotas stated 3.5t capacity, the driver has to be under 80Kg or you are over the vehicles GCM limit, no passengers, no load in the tray, no baggage inside allowed just a driver under 80kg, Typical Toyota sticker upgrade and charge you another $5000 for less 🤣🤣😂😂
I have no problem racing any Toyota hilux any day of the week My old 2015 px2 5 cylinder ranger with 335000k on it is making 182 rear wheel kw on a safe tune and over 200+ kw at the motor with 33" mud tyres and it does it day in day out
they have all bed cover.
that helps a bit.
but sure
the 10 speed is easier for the engine
Most manufactures don't spend money on the motor on existing models. It's very disappointing. They all bolt on some "extras" and charge way more. Thank you Ford for making the Raptor!!
You appreciate Ford for their efforts in creating the Raptor, which likely includes significant advancements in the engine and overall performance.
Surprised you didn’t do a reverse race aswell! Haha
Good test, now OFF ROAD vs 👍
Both Ford and toyota offers a best package trucks than others with good performance reliability..beautiful trucks...raptor theme nice and tough...
Strange idea that we need to compare the speed of utes. I thought they were about carrying / towing stuff.
We’ve already done those tests.
@@CarExpertAusDo one for Volkswagen Amarok 2.3 gasoline Vs Raptor V6. No one has done it or I’m missing something please?
sadly that's the hype for last few years.
I personally can't wait sportscar off road races :)
If utes have to be quick at launch - why my M5 can't do proper off road track??!
Trucks aren't intended for drag race, these trucks (Raptor and GR) are made for offroad hability, so this GR has reached it's goal...there is nothing toyota has to do in this truck.
Any way this GR held pretty well against those V6, it's just 4 cylinders(being a Toyota).
My thought
Raptor- Genuine upgrade in all areas.
GRSport Hilux- Same outdated vehicle with a GRSport Badge.
Yes and the Toyota fanboys are mad about the ranger
Use the sport mode and puddle shifters
Instead of GR they should call it snail
I own the grs4 hilux. It drives very well on winding asphalt roads, while still being very capable offroad. Averaging 9.3l per 100kms in 7000 kms
you mean it drives very very slow. old man slow.
@mikeycassey8i rather pick that hilux than money eating ranger raptor lol 507
@@generizze6243 The Ranger Raptor is a lot more fun and totally worth the extra money. The only reason you could have for buying the Hilux instead of the Ranger Raptor is because you can't afford it. The previous generation Ranger Raptor didn't deserve the 'Raptor' name, which is why I never bought one. But the current one definitely does. Toyota is still stuck in the past with a vehicle that can only compete with the previous generation Ranger Raptor. They are like Apple - they know people will keep buying the Hilux no matter what, so they don't bother improving it much. The same goes for the 79 series - totally overpriced and barely any improvements. I also waited ages for the new Land Cruiser 300 series before I bought one, because my 2014 LC200 was so similar to the newer ones, The LC300 is the first one in ages to actually be a significant upgrade, and I bet I'll keep this one for the next 10 years as well, because the updates will be so insignificant.
Would be great to. See the VW/Ford petrol engine how it would go
It would be great to see a old TRD V6 hilux vs these.
Would beat the diesels and the raptor would beat the TRD
It won't beat the v6 diesel my amarock beats them easily the Toyota v6 is a crap engine
@@JohnWinzil faster than a supercharged V6 TRD?
@@mightygood1 l haven't seen a supercharged Toyota v6 just the ordinary v6 some are tuned they are not very fast and have very bad fuel consumption
Toyota knows their die-hard faithful will buy pretty much anything they pump out, even if it does defy logic.
💯💯💯💯
James looks like a Ranger driver😄
Owned both Hilux and Ranger, loved them both but the Ranger is the more cooler looking than the Hilux.
Dont get me wrong I love the reliability of Toyota but I change cars every 4 to 5 years and have money to burn so I dont stick to only 1 brand.
In Colombia, a used 2022 Hilux GR is the same price as a new Chevy Silverado Trail Boss at $68k USD… have always loved the Hilux but from all the comments I’m seeing about the newer ones I’m thinking it’s time to go new.
Good
After seeing the issues with EV, my mind is moving more towards a ute. I don't care that much about the straight line speed but I care more about the carrying and pulling capacity. I don't know much about these utes but your website is putting the Ford in front. however I do know that you have had some mechanical issues with Ford. What is the latest thoughts on which brand to buy out of these but I guess all the Utes. What are they like for parts out of the major centres etc.
If you want reliability you can not beet Toyota.
@nurullah5845 Tell that to all the Toyota owners who had blocked DPF systems and faulty injectors. Toyota have become no better than the rest of them.
who is cross shopping an EV with a ute
@@jackcalow2430 My father did actually :D he was looking at ioniq 5 and tesla y and decided in the end that he wanted a ranger raptor, so he got one 😁
I have a 2015 Fortuner GX - 10 yr warranty on dpf and lifetime owner warranty on drivetrain issues to do with dpf / timing chain and a nice letter from Mr Toyota Australia apologising for the issues. After that class action re the dpfs…. And dealer replaced dpf (took 1 day) after I reported a puff of smoke on regen cycle “just in case” and video recorded a cold start timing chain sequence on record for future claims. This was all to reassure me the vehicle has ongoing backing by dealer. And its 5 years out of warranty… and, no, it cost me not one cent for the work / checking / cold start timing chain check and dpf. And no dealer network in Australia is better for remote regions. My other car is a GR Yaris….. anyway, reliability is the only relevant factor. I even wish my 8 yr old Fortuner GX had fewer electronics….
After seeing GR Yari & more recently the Rolla was really expecting something more Lambo from Toyota, but instead they simply build the GR brand up, give the normal 2.8l hilux a tune up and slap a badge on it... Excellent marketing strategies Toyota
I love the Hilux, but that Ranger Raptor, dayem that's also nice. Debating between the two. Which of the two its more reliable, and costs less to maintain?
They should bring back the 3.0 turbo diesel engine and make it a twin turbo diesel on the hilux
ชอบวีดีโอนี้
Aren’t they 4wds? Not sure what drag races or soft dashes have to do a 4wd.
So, I'm a Toyota guy, I trust Toyota, I have a 79 V8 Land Cruiser and a Hilux Legend RS which is almost the same as the Rogue you guys get down under, and I would not trade either of them for a Ford. I don't have the confidence in Ford that I have in Toyota. That being said, I really want the new Ranger Raptor. It would be a perfect weekend toy. And unless Toyota come to their senses and put either the 3.3 or 3.5 V6 engines in the new Hilux, I'll probably be adding a Ranger Raptor to the garage in a couple of years.
Yes it would only be fair to get a Ranger yourself, look after it and judge its reliability. That Raptor really ticks a lot of boxes
@@nickwest2158 Unfortunately I've heard that a lot of them have been giving problems, a guy I know is currently waiting for an engine replacement, he asked the dealer about just getting a new vehicle since his only has around 1300km on the clock, but there seems to be a bit of a shortage. And I highly doubt that he drove it into the ground, he only drives in town and on the highways and tends to drive like a grandma on her way to church. I'm sure they'll iron out the niggles eventually, and then there should be kind of midlife update to address the issues that they have, and that's when I'll start seriously looking at one. They look amazing, sound great, and the performance is absolutely insane for what it is, but it's just not in my nature to be a test subject. Really hope they'll get the reliability sorted soon though.
The “only as good” comment can only be true if “good” is defined as the ability to win drag races - certainly there are bigger considerations when buying a double cab 4x4?
Ford Ranger for me , we have owned Fords in our family for years and never had any issues .
I am definitely buying the Ford Ranger Wildtrak 2.0D Bi-turbo
Different strategic approaches.
Greater reliability and cheaper runnings costs over the life of thr car > performance and expensive bills.
Sad thing is the 4 cylinder ranger can be tuned for fairly cheap and ads slot more HP and torque.
The 4 cylinder is a toy and tuning it will just shorten its lifespan
Have petrol v6 in Middle East pretty much
