Toyota’s Hilux is a pickup line with a strong reputation, and it didn’t take a lot of effort for the company to draw attention to their 2015 release, which already got plenty of good press. Along with it, they’re also releasing a Black Edition of the truck, hoping to attract even more truck enthusiasts. There have been rumors about the Black Edition of the 2015 Toyota Hilux and what it would bring, but we never got any concrete information until now.
The Black Edition of the model will be based on the 2015 edition, and will feature a turborcharged diesel configuration, the same that’s been used in most Hilux models so far. Naturally, this will be a limited edition vehicle, with just a thousand units produced up till now, and the company is likely going to limit the production of the Black Hilux quite a lot. And of course, those who’re interested in getting their hands on one should be quick with their wallets.
Every time Toyota makes a limited edition deal, it usually doesn’t take long before it vanishes from the market. The company has been enjoying a lot of attention for their releases, and when they decide to release a limited edition model it usually becomes a brief sensation until their stocks run out. Currently, the Hilux Black has been priced at $53,240 for the manual edition, and $55,990 for the automatic transmission version.
It looks quite good on the outside, with 17 inch rims featuring a black highlight, and on the inside there is a SR5 touchscreen that features all the standard instruments and features that customers have come to expect from the Hilux. Some reviewers have pointed out that even though it costs a lot of money already, the Hilux Black edition is still a remarkably good deal and definitely worth the investment for those who want to know they’re spending their money on something of high value.
The SR5 touchscreen has been getting lots of praise both by customers as well as professional reviewers, and it makes sense that the company wanted to also include it in the Black Edition. It’s actually not much of a stretch to call that touchscreen one of the most popular features of some of the company’s models, and Toyota definitely know how to please their crowds and grab their attention quickly.
At this rate, it might be necessary to produce additional units of the model, judging by its popularity in online discussions. People are talking about the Hilux Black left and right, and it definitely isn’t going to take long for its stocks to run out.
