  • The Toyota HiLux Rogue is a legend, but does the 2024 model live up to the hype? In this in-depth review, I analyse its rugged new design, upgraded interior, powerful engine, and off-road prowess.
    We'll cover:
    Performance and Handling: How does the engine and updated suspension perform?
    Interior and Comfort: Is the Rogue a comfortable daily driver? Tech and material improvements?
    Towing and Payload: How does it handle heavy loads compared to rivals?
    Off-road Capability: Can the Rogue tackle tough Australian terrain?
    Value for Money: Is it worth the premium over other Hilux models and competitors?
    Who should watch:
    Fans of the Toyota HiLux
    Anyone considering a tough and reliable ute
    Off-road enthusiasts looking for an adventure vehicle.

    Good review. I’ll be ordering one soon, mainly to use as a family car, with the intention to go on longer trips. It might be as comfortable as a Ranger, but for a round trip of our beautiful country, I wouldn’t trust any other vehicle apart from this beautiful and reliable Toyota

    I'm actually in the market for a new 4x4 dual cab ute at the moment and have been test driving a range of models. The new gen Triton has some nice features, but the lack of in-dash cup holders in anything but the top GSR model is very disappointing, as is the fact you can't fold up the rear seats for storage. But the interior multimedia unit seems top notch and the instrument panel a lot more modern than the current Hilux.
    As for the 'manual' handbrake, I think it is probably better in terms of longevity and in the event of an electrical problem. An electric handbrake isn't necessarily a deal breaker (like having to control air conditioning from a touch screen would be), but the manual option is my preference.
    As for the Hilux v Ranger, well, everyone I know (except one) who's had a Ranger has had major issues with it. The one who hasn't also had an issue (the Motorised roll cover didn't work when we were camping and it started raining) - but I don't consider that a 'major' issue (though it did happen within 3 months of buying the car!). In any case, my point is I'm not even test driving the Ranger.
    I would love to see a review of the SR5 with the 48v (so-called V-Active) technology. One thing not clear from your review, since the Rogue doesn't have the V-Active option, is whether it misses out on Toyota's new Multi-Terrain Select (MTS) technology or if that's only available on a V-Active equipped SR and SR5?

      Thanks for your comment and for the great feedback!
      I’m currently on my way to the Bangkok International Motor Show and hope to have further information for you on the 48v Hilux variant.
      This Rogue doesn’t have the MTS option.
      I have a few reviews of the new Triton range coming up and will be able to share some good insights shortly, the new Triton’s infotainment unit definitely is a winner though.

    • @roadtrip_reviews
      @roadtrip_reviews  2 месяца назад

      Thank you! I’m a big fan of both, the interior screen has me sold on the D-Max every time, however the raised suspension and wider track of the Hilux Rogue is tough!

    I would only prefer the GR over this because its gets rock slides and removes the rear sway bar for heavier off roading.

    💯 mate , Hilux is the best Ute in the world. I drive a sr5. Best value in my view is the workmate with the 2.4 engine.

    Honestly mate this was a great review.
    Do you think waiting for the 48V system is worth it or get the rogue with out it while you can?
    took the Toyota rogue 2024 and the D max x terrain 2024 for a test drive today and I have to say the Toyota drives better but the D max has such better Tec
    I cant understand for that price how the reverse camera is so trash... why Toyota just why.

    • @roadtrip_reviews
      @roadtrip_reviews  Месяц назад +1

      What blows my mind is that the reverse cameras on Toyota models are usually some of the best!
      Honestly I think get the non-48V system version. The benefits don’t necessarily outweigh grabbing a great deal on the outgoing Rogue.

    • @roadtrip_reviews

      100% agree that the reverse camera quality is trailing other key brands, although I must say they’ve done a good job at keeping this car a usable work ute while “beefing” it up a bit and done the mechanical work required to do so.
