Pros Cons of Toyota Hilux

Pros

  • Proven 2.8-litre diesel engine
  • Strong 420–500 Nm torque
  • Proper four-wheel-drive system
  • 225mm ground clearance
  • Large 80-litre fuel tank
  • Seven airbags standard
     

Cons

  • Stiff ride when unladen
  • Rear seat under-thigh support limited
  • Cabin feels utilitarian for the price
  • Expensive compared to its rival
  • Difficult to maneuver in tight city spaces
  • Limited premium tech features
     

Verdict

According to Seshan Vijayraghvan,

“Hilux might be an expensive option, but it offers good value. The limited features will be a question because of the high price. But it’s a purpose-built vehicle for those enthusiasts who not only want to take the car off the beaten path, but go beyond that, and experience the different terrains India has to offer.”

Best For - 

  • Off-road adventures 
  • Hauling cargo
  • Long-distance touring

Not Ideal For

  • Navigating tight city traffic
  • Seeking luxury comfort
  • Those on a strict budget


 

Pros Cons of Isuzu MU-X

Pros

  • Ride Quality
  • Spacious
  • Powerful Engines

Cons

  • Unattractive
  • Lacks Modern Features
  • Lacks Variants

Verdict

The MU-X is a likeable bloke and while it does have its drawbacks, it is definitely a massive step-up from the MU-7. Of course, the MU-X falls short on features, power, equipment when compared to its immediate rivals such as the Ford Endeavour and Toyota Fortuner, but with the 2WD prices at ₹ 23.99 lakh and the 4WD prices at ₹ 25.99 lakh, it is almost ₹ 5-6 lakh cheaper than the top-of-the-line models of its competition. So, keeping that in mind, it makes for a good proposition.
