Hardcore Raptor-fighting HiLux not in the pipeline

Toyota Australia (TMCA) has no high-performance HiLux derivative to tackle Ford’s Ranger Raptor in the pipeline, though local management acknowledges the “formidable competition” it faces to stay atop the sales charts without one.

It’s $64,490 plus on-road costs. Review is here.
