Toyota revises mid-range Hilux Raider’s price
The once flagship model now finds itself positioned below the Legend as replacement for the SRX.
Toyota Hilux Raider
Officially no longer the flagship variant of the local Hilux line-up, Toyota has provided updated pricing for the now mid-level Raider that replaces the SRX.
Positioned below the range-topping Hilux Legend, the Raider receives the same eight-inch touchscreen infotainment system with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, but loses out on satellite navigation while also swapping the 18-inch alloys for graphite coloured 17-inch alloys and gaining a model specific chrome surrounded grille.
It also does without the nine-speaker JBL sound system, push-button start, keyless entry, Safety Sense driver and safety systems and electric front seats, but retains the TFT instrument cluster display, LED fog lights on the 2.4 GD-6, cruise control, a revers camera plus rear parking sensors, the air-conditioned glovebox, climate control and bi-LED headlights as well as fog lamps on the 2.8 GD-6, a leather wrapped steering wheel and Toyota Connect in-car Wi-Fi with complimentary 15 GB data.

With the standard fitting of a limited slip rear differential on all models, the Raider also rates as the sole model to feature both the upgraded 2.8 GD-6 and 2.4 GD-6 engines now that the Legend is powered exclusively by the 150kW/500Nm version of the former.
In 2.4 GD-6 guise, output is still pegged at 110kW/400Nm with buyers having the option of rear-or-four-wheel-drive plus the standard six-speed manual or optional six-speed automatic gearbox. The same applies to the 2.8 GD-6, although no longer offered is the manual on the 2.8 GD-6.
Like the rest of the line-up, the Raider comes standard with thee year/100 000 km warranty as well as a nine service/90 000 km service plan.
