Toyota Hilux dimensions (2016-on)

All the information you need on the Toyota Hilux’s interior and exterior dimensions and its payload.

Toyota Hilux capacity & size

4.5 out of 5 4.5

There are three different versions of the Hilux, with a single cab, extended cab and double cab on offer. Unlike some rivals, there is very little difference in the external dimensions of the three – the big difference comes in the loading bay.

The only minor difference is that the single cab is 15mm lower than the other two. Every other important measurement is the same as the extended and double cab.

At the business end of the vehicle, productivity hasn’t been compromised. With a maximum load width of 1,645mm and lengths of 2,315mm (single), 1,808mm (extended) and 1,525mm (double-cab), the Toyota Hilux has one of the largest load beds in its class although it isn’t that deep at 480mm.

Toyota Hilux payload, weight & towing

4.5 out of 5 4.5

Payloads vary from between 1,250kg and 1,300kg on the single-cab, 1,185kg and 1,235kg on the extended-cab and 1,050kg and 1,115kg on the double-cab.

If towing is your absolute priority, and you need to haul as much as possible, then the single cab and extended cab versions are the ones to go for. They are the ones with the full 3.5-tonne braked towing capacity – the double cab only has the ability to pull 3.2 tonnes.

A tough and durable load liner is provided along with four lashing points.
