Photos of the Hilux 2.8 + camping for 4
Who this vehicle is for
Take the 2.8 when the vehicle will be heavy and the days will be hard: four adults with full kit, long stretches of soft sand in the Namib or Kaokoland, and mountain passes like Van Zyl's, Spreetshoogte or the Kunene approaches. The extra torque means fewer downshifts, less heat and a calmer drive with the load on board. On the standard tar-and-gravel circuit it will not get you there faster and it costs more per day — the 2.4 is the sensible choice for that trip.
Still deciding? Compare all six vehicles side by side.
