Toyota Hilux 1980 belongs to the third generation of the famous Toyota model.
For long time pick-up trucks were considered primarily designed for farmers and small businesses, and as auxiliary trucks for transport, service and construction companies. However in the early 1980s they are also widely used as recreational and sporting machines.
These pickups often painted in bright colors, acquired chrome parts, an arc of safety in the body and additional lighting equipment on the roof. They were transported bulky sports equipment and tourist equipment, as well as used for amateur racing on rough terrain.
The third generation of Hilux is ideally adapted to operation in urban conditions. The characteristics of the previous generations of the model are improved. The engineers completely redesigned platform, including the chassis, added new engines. Now petrol engines of 1.8 and 2.4 liters are installed on the car. On the third generation of Hilux for the first time in its history four-wheel drive transmission and automatic transmission have been installed.
The car acquired a more modern streamlined bodywork and an even more comfortable interior. Toyota Hilux 1980 became noticeably softer as a result of the fact that the front double independent suspension on springs was used in this model. And the central differential, which includes the 4WD system depending on road conditions made the car more attractive for driving both in the city cycle and off-road. In addition the car is also produced in the rear-wheel drive version.
Toyota Hilux 1980 is able to please its owners with a comfortable cabin. In some trim levels the salon is very richly equipped. Inexpensive rear-wheel drive cars in standard configuration offer simple fabric upholstery, gray plastic in the cabin, analog instrument panel with “pale” white scales. But in the interior of expensive versions you can see wood grain, leather inserts, Recaro sports seats with excellent lateral support, sports three-spoke Momo steering wheel. In this case the salon has a velor upholstery in light colors.
The instrument panel has optronic illumination and more expressive scales with an abundance of pictograms. And below the rear-view mirror there is a “flight-navigation” instrument package (crinometer, altimeter, compass). The transformable rear row of the car allows you to get a trunk of huge sizes, where you can shove everything you need for outing.
Toyota Hilux 1980 is improved in terms of safety. In the standard equipment, the car received two airbags (driver and front passenger), front belts with tensioners, child seat anchorages, anti-lock brakes. Еhe first and second generations of this car showd insufficient crash-tests results. Whereas in contrast Toyota Hilux 1980 has improved on passive safety performance .
We are really happy to present you Toyota Hilux 1980.
