Load bay

Access to the load area is by means of a drop-down lockable tailgate released by a single, centrally mounted handle.

Once released, the tailgate sits horizontally; the rear bumper and step prevent it from dropping down completely.

Our Hilux’s cargo bed had four load tie-down points – two on each side wall.

They look inadequate, and we would like to see better provision, but having said that one suspects that the majority of loads carried in double-cab pick-ups are not lashed down anyway.

The cargo area was protected against scratches and scrapes by a mixture of plastic linings and films. Total price? £487 plus VAT.

If the load area offers insufficient space for the items you need to carry then you can create more capacity by folding back the rear seats in the cab.

Rear privacy glass will help conceal whatever it is you are transporting.
