Overview
The current generation of Toyota HiLux dates back to 2015, although the model has received minor upgrades over the years. All grades from the 2015 model year still sit on the IMV ladder frame platform, dating way back to 2004.
Significant features on the GR SPORT grade that make it stand out from other HiLux include an extensive suspension system, tuned powertrain, and underbody modifications.
Engines, transmission, and performance
There are two engine options, including a petrol and a gasoline on the 2025 Toyota HiLux GR SPORT grade. A 2.8-liter 4-cylinder Diesel D-4D turbocharged engine delivers 201 hp at 3,400 rpm, and a torque output of 500 Nm at 1,600 to 2,800 rpm is available, but it doesn’t come to Nigeria as a result of low demand for diesel cars.
The popular option is the 4.0-liter V6 petrol engine producing 235 hp at 5,200 rpm and maximum torque output of 376 Nm at 3,800 rpm.
Both engines are mated to a 6-speed automatic transmission. All grades are equipped with an 80-liter fuel tank as standard, with a fuel efficiency rating of 13.0 km/L.
Performance on the 2025 GR SPORT is top notch, thanks to significant improvements including off-road packages and increased vehicle stability through reduced roll angle, and a precise steering response.
Exterior design of the 2025 HiLux GR SPORT
The exterior of the new GR SPORT marks its presence when it turns up, with the front characterized by a redesigned bumper, delivering an improved approach angle when compared with other grades in the lineup. The new front redesign features new fog lamp bezels and a silver lower moulding, which sit above a uniquely developed skid plate for extra underbody protection.
On the side, the extended track width is housed by large black overfenders with aero ducts at the front that help to reduce turbulence in the wheel arches.
At the rear are red recovery points and a black rear bumper finish with exterior look, and are paired with a pre-installed towbar, towball, and trailer wiring harness.
All grades are equipped with 17-inch alloy wheels fitted with 265/65R17 tires for improved ground grip.
Other exterior features on the model include Power Side Mirrors with Turn Signal Lamps and welcome Lights, Auto Retractable Power Side Mirrors, Headlamp auto leveling, Side Molding on side doors, Tailgate lift assist, and Side Step.

Interior design
The cabin of the 2025 HiLux GR SPORT is similar to the cabin of the 2025 HiLux Adventure V6 except for a variety of luxury and comfort features. Standard interior features include the latest Toyota Smart Connect multimedia system operated using an 8-inch touchscreen display, as well as Android Auto and Apple CarPlay compatibility.
The multimedia package on the model includes access to cloud-based journey navigation, which uses constantly updated real-time traffic event information for accurate and efficient route planning. A navigation system that can be used when no data from the cloud is also available is an option.
