ARToyota is set to begin producing a new generation of the Hilux in Argentina, including a fully electric version (BEV), which will be the first such model manufactured in the country. This follows the success of similar models in other regions like Thailand and Australia, where companies in mining and energy sectors have shown strong interest. The electric Hilux will initially target industrial applications such as mining due to predictable routes and available charging infrastructure, rather than immediate mass retail sales. Alongside the electric version, the plant will also produce diesel and hybrid variants, aligning with Toyota’s global strategy of offering multiple propulsion options tailored to regional needs. The electric model has already been introduced in parts of Latin America, with Bolivia and Chile being early adopters.
