I know a LOT of People (myself included) that have been waiting on this truck to make it to the US. Right now, I drive a 2002 Dodge 1500 Quadcab w' a 4.7L gas engine and a 2018 Ram 2500 Quadcab w/a 6.7L Cummins. What I need is a Cab/chassis w/a flatbed.
It wont be sold in N America unless it gets the same fuel economy as a sedan. Thats the reason manufactures stopped selling compact pickups there in the first place. The smaller pickups sold now are large enough to fall under the large pickup guidelines. Toyota pickups from the 80s and 90s with 22r 4 cyl engines were among some of the best vehicles ever made.
Diesel AWD Offroad and Tow package with A/C and swap options for the bed frame: Bed, Covered Bed, RV. Such a small modular truck with those features and you've got a sale. Bring this US ASAP
Yeah. This video made it sound like it's comming soon to a dealer near you, but I am pretty sure there is no plan at Toyota to bring it here. They are already beating the US automakers, and selling Tacomas, so why stir up protectionist in congress?
They would be sold out all the time, you would never be able to get your hands on one because they wouldn’t have any to sell. They could make them day and night and they would never be able to catch up with the demand
Lol Im pretty sure the Champ is only offered in 2WD. Bro is talking about offroad enthusiasts buying this in the description. Like, no dawg 2WD trucks are about as far from off road capable as it gets.
There is no way they will sell in the US for 12,000. After import fees, taxes, document fees, delivery fees, tariff fees, registration fees, dealer markup fees, etc. It will be 30,000 or more. This is a bs joke.
Nope: I'll take the basic truck. Don't need the features... unless you consider a heater during the winter as an option - although I think that if you are going to sell me a forever pickup you ought to galvanize the frame: we use a lot of salt on winter roads.
@@AutoEdgeRUclips Until it is no longer competitive to other trucks on the market. The reliability at a good price is the selling point. If they lose sight of that then they more than likely will tank sales when price hits a peak.
You repeat youself several times in this video. Realistically it should be a 2-minute presentation. Also, you need to make the narration for what the viewer is seeing. Do better.
Will not make it to USA. Liberal California regulations adopted by 49 states + chicken tax. Climate politics discourage high volume cheap new ICE vehicles. For the USA budget truck market, the used Kei truck market is growing, recycling small low mileage trucks that are no longer used in Japan. These used trucks already made, not using new resources.
The new administration is pro business, anti regulation. So don't be surprised if this makes it to the U.S. Especially if Toyota decides to build them here. With U.S. standards and payroll costs it will likely be $25k+.
I sure wish that Toyota would bring this truck to the market in America.

I’m sorry that it won’t be coming to the US because our “amazing” government has this thing called the chicken tax
5 to 10 years time it will be in every war zone due to ruggedness and efficiency

I want it in the USA. It would become the most popular truck purchased all through the country.
It’s what the world wants !!!
I will fly to Canada (or Mexico), buy one and drive it home. Great way to break in a new engine is a nice road trip.
That's definitely one way to go!
if it stays a 2 door would consider but for some reason marketers believe we only buy 4 door trucks in US
I will totally buy one if I see one
I want this truck!

Can confirm, do want.
We won't get it in the USA.

Want!
Years ago owned the namp, Nissan champ 1400. Wonder if there Will be a legal topic.
why can't they use there existed trucks. just with out all the add on. maybe a few add ons. like ac. carpet. very few ons. roll down windows
12k starting price - US dealerships will rarely have the barebones models...
You are probably right!
Yes why did this take so long to come out!!!

cant wait for the 8K dealer market increase

What you're not telling everybody is it won't be allowed to be sold in North America it's for third world countries only
You will never see it in the United States.
@@windrider65 Sad to say.
toyota ceo koji sato said he'd give us an 8k pickup. you lied koji
Once the truck arrives at dealerships, its price is likely to skyrocket unpredictably

that has to be the ugliest truck ever....
😂😂😂😂
i like it.
@@BobFord-i3n I love it.
It's really really ugly i think it's the ugliest car I've seen
😂😂😂
i like it.
I like to have that truck if you can keep it at that same price you sell it in the other countries
Yep, I buy a kei truck, not this wanna be
I have a kei truck and repairs are tough because of parts are hard to get.
This is not a lei wannabe. It’s a different thing. Kei trucks (and cars and vans) are cool but the Champ is far more rugged.
