Thread: Hilux hybrid.4wd vs dmax ls 4wd

I don’t think you guys have much idea of what the Hilux “hybrid” system actually is. It is not that much different to a standard diesel Hilux. It effectively just has an electric motor belt driving the crankshaft on the standard diesel engine, and a small 48V battery under a rear seat to power the electric motor.

Totally different to the hybrid system in other Toyotas, and cannot run on electricity alone.
