Toyota Readies an Electric Pickup - But Not for the US
"Looking ahead, Toyota is pursuing carbon neutrality not with a single solution, but with a multi-pathway approach,"
"Because the truth is simple: no two regions are the same, and no customer is the same. This extends to the powertrain, the body variations and the customizability...all with the aim of leaving nobody behind."
"[c]ruising range of 300 km or more"
"[o]n the road, the performance is blistering by pick-up truck standards."
Toyota reaffirmed its commitment to carbon neutrality and outlined a multi-pathway strategy that includes diesel, battery-electric, and planned fuel-cell powertrains for the ninth-generation Hilux. The BEV Hilux is quoted with a cruising range of 300 km (186 miles) while diesel versions remain available and a fuel-cell electric variant is under development. The Hilux continues to be absent from the U.S. market, where buyers favor longer-range electric pickups. Early reviews praise the BEV Hilux for capable off-road handling and unusually strong on-road performance for a pickup, highlighting engineering and design strengths beyond range.
