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

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

Pros Cons of Tata Safari

Verdict

The Tata Safari’s facelift got in a fresh look with plenty of colour options, including a first-in-segment dual-tone option, and new features to boot. It’s still a symbol of authority with a premium, spacious cabin, and top-notch safety. It’s priced right making it a no-brainer buy.
