The Toyota Hilux , stylised as HiLux and historically as Hi-Lux, is a series of pickup trucks produced and marketed by the Japanese automobile manufacturer Toyota. The majority of these vehicles are sold as pickup truck or cab chassis variants, although they could be configured in a variety of body styles.
The pickup truck was sold with the Hilux name in most markets, but in North America, the Hilux name was retired in 1976 in favor of Truck, Pickup Truck, or Compact Truck. In North America, the popular option package, the SR5 (Sport Runabout 5-Speed), was colloquially used as a model name for the truck, even though the option package was also used on other Toyota models, like the 1972 to 1979 Corolla. In 1984, the Trekker, the wagon version of the Hilux, was renamed the 4Runner in Venezuela, Australia and North America, and the Hilux Surf in Japan. In 1992, Toyota introduced a newer pickup model, the mid-size T100 in North America, necessitating distinct names for each vehicle other than Truck and Pickup Truck. Since 1995, the 4Runner is a standalone SUV, while in the same year Toyota introduced the Tacoma to replace the Hilux pickup in North America.
Since the seventh-generation model released in 2004, the Hilux shares the same ladder frame chassis platform called the IMV with the Fortuner SUV and the Innova minivan.
Cumulative global sales in 2017 reached 17.7 million units.[2] In 2019, Toyota revealed plans to introduce an electric-powered Hilux within six years
Parts Included in the Hilux Conversion Kit
This powerful 70KW direct-drive PMSM motor delivers exceptional torque for a pickup truck, eliminating the need for the complex original transmission system. It connects directly to the drive axle via a custom flange, simplifying the conversion while providing robust performance.
Pre-Installation: What to Remove
Before installing the new electric system, you will remove:
The original diesel/gasoline engine.
The old transmission system (as this is a direct-drive setup).
Engine-driven accessories (power steering pump, brake vacuum pump, A/C compressor), which will be replaced by electric versions.
Installation Note: New mounting brackets are typically required to securely fix the motor and other components to the Hilux chassis. Proper measurement and custom bracket fabrication are key to a successful, clean installation.
This high-efficiency, intelligent on-board charger is built for the demands of a high-capacity EV battery pack.
Fast Charging: At 6.6kW, it enables significantly quicker recharge times compared to standard chargers.
Robust & Reliable: Features advanced LLC resonance technology, active power factor correction (PFC ≥0.99), and full microcomputer control.
Comprehensive Safety: Includes protections against overcharge, short circuit, over-voltage, and overheating. Rated IP66 for water and dust resistance.
Key Specs: Wide global input voltage (85-265Vac), high efficiency (≥93%), low noise operation, and CE certified.
The Hilux’s power brake booster relies on engine vacuum. After an EV conversion, this vacuum source is gone.
Solution: Our 12V electric vacuum pump provides a consistent and reliable vacuum supply for the brake booster.
Benefit: Ensures your power brakes retain their familiar feel and full stopping power, maintaining safety and compatibility with the original brake system.
The energy heart of your electric Hilux, designed for range and durability.
Substantial Capacity: 35.6 kWh provides the energy needed for practical daily use and workload.
Superior Chemistry: LiFePO4 (Lithium Iron Phosphate) batteries offer enhanced safety, longer lifespan, and stable performance compared to other lithium types.
Professional Design: The dual-enclosure structure aids in installation flexibility and thermal management within the truck’s frame.
