Exterior Tweaks and Aftermarket Features
Toyotas offering the 2024 Hilux Champ takes pride in its design that allows for customization. Engineers strategically incorporated bolt holes over the bed of the truck inviting owners to personalize this vehicle with a wide range of aftermarket parts. In Thailand, where the Hilux Champ has made its debut, Toyota highlights over 100 accessory manufacturers who are ready to help you transform this pickup into your Light Commercial Vehicle (LCV).
Simplistic Single Cab Design
In its Thai version, the Hilux Champ embraces a single cab design with two doors and a no frills cabin. The exterior is intentionally designed for functionality providing a canvas for modifications that reflect the trucks versatility.
Interior Practicality with a Hint of Orange
Step inside the Hilux Champ and you will find an interior that mirrors the trucks dedication to functionality. The single cab layout is complemented by plastic materials while touches of orange add a sense of vibrancy. The absence of a display underscores the truck`s work oriented-approach, putting all information within easy reach on the instrument cluster.
Essential Features for Your Needs
The interior focuses on what matters for your tasks, at hand. The variant seen in this article comes with some notable features including a fan (of air conditioning or climate control), two cupholders, a power outlet, electric windows and practical storage compartments. Although it may not have all the luxury bells and whistles, the Hilux Champ ensures that everything you need, for the job is easily accessible.
Engine with Three Powerful Options
Diverse Powertrains
The Hilux Champ provides three powertrain options to cater to preferences. The lineup includes a 2.0-liter petrol engine that generates 137 horsepower and 183 Newton meters of torque, a 2.7-liter petrol engine that produces 164 horsepower and 245 Newton meters of torque, and a strong 2.4 liter turbodiesel engine that delivers 148 horsepower and 343 Newton meters of torque. The diesel version aligns with the Hilux`s reputation by boasting a payload capacity of one tone (2,205 pounds).
Transmission Choices
The base model with the 2.0-liter engine exclusively comes with a five-speed gearbox for those who prefer a hands-on driving experience. On the other hand, both the 2.7-liter petrol engine and the 2.4-liter turbodiesel are offered with a six-speed torque converter transmission that balances convenience with performance. It is worth mentioning that all power is directly sent to the axle, since there is no four wheel-drive option for the Thai market, in the Hilux Champ for the moment.
