ROARING ONTO THE SCENE: HILUX GR-S III HAS ARRIVED! The legendary Toyota Hilux reaches new heights of performance, ride comfort and imposing appearance with the Hilux GR-S III. Building on its multiple Dakar Rally- winning heritage, the Hilux GR SPORT III achieves a new pinnacle for Toyota’s pioneering bakkie, which has earned an unrivalled reputation for durability and reliability since its arrival in 1968. The double-cab Hilux GR-S III delivers a powerful combination of enhanced handling and stability, with excellent towing (3 500kg) and payload (1 000kg) capacity allied to an assertive design evolution. It stands out from the crowd, wherever the spirit of adventure takes it. The GR-S III features an increase in tread, the lateral distance between the wheels, which is expanded by 140mm at the front and 155mm at the rear compared to the standard Toyota Hilux. This creates a confidence-inspiring ride, even in adverse weather or road conditions. On- and off-road capabilities are also purposefully enhanced, thanks to that wider tread and significant improvements in handling characteristics, such as increased vehicle stability through reduced roll angle, and a precise steering response. Optimised handling ensures a sure- footed drive with reduced vibration noise, while the suspension and brakes have been specifically enhanced. Driving excitement and sporty sensations are evoked without compromise on ride
