Contrary to what they may look like, the Hilux is not the Tacoma for the rest of the world, and the Tacoma is not a reworked Hilux for American roads.
Down to the platform, the two trucks share very few functional components. For example, the upcoming 2024 Tacoma shares a platform with the most recent generation of Sequoia and Tundra. Meanwhile, the current generation of Hilux, launched in 2015, is based off of an improved and reworked version of Toyota’s IMV platform, the same used in the Toyota Fortuner — another overseas market SUV.
Next, the drivetrains and engine options are almost entirely different between the Tacoma and Hilux. The current Tacoma is available with either a 2.7-liter four cylinder, or a 3.5-liter V6. The 2024 model gets a turbocharged 2.4-liter four cylinder engine and an option hybrid drivetrain. The Hilux, in some markets like Australia, also get a 2.7-liter, but most other areas where the Hilux is sold come with a 2.4-liter or 2.8-liter turbo diesel.
