New Toyota Hilux GR-Sport confirmed for 2027
Toyota South Africa has confirmed the next Hilux GR-Sport will make its debut in 2027. But what can we expect from the new pinnacle model?
Toyota South Africa Motors (TSAM) has confirmed to CAR magazine that the new Hilux GR-Sport (GR-S) will make local landfall in 2027. While details remain thin on the ground, the next Hilux GR-S, seen here as a render by digital artist Theottle, will likely follow a similar formula as its predecessor — more imposing front grille, widebody kit wrapping around wider front and rear tracks, upgraded suspension, and bespoke design elements. The latter includes GR exterior decals, ‘GR’ branding inside and out, and red contrast stitching in the cabin, to name but a few items.
Details surrounding the apex Hilux’s powertrain also remain under wraps. However, it seems likely that, similar to its predecessor, the new GR-S could employ an uprated version of the Japanese automaker’s tried-and-tested 2.8GD-6 engine…perhaps this time in 48 V mild-hybrid format?
