Description
1997 Toyota Hilux
THIS… is a 1997 Toyota Hilux SSR 4×4, finished in Stellar Blue Pearl with a gray interior.
- This Hilux is a Japanese-spec, right-hand-drive truck that’s titled in New Jersey. Said to be imported from Japan in November 2022, it’s equipped with a metric instrument cluster, and the odometer shows about 202,800 kilometers, which represents approximately 126,100 miles.
- Equipment includes 15-inch wheels, a fender-mounted mirror, running boards, cloth upholstery, power windows, locks, and mirrors, a sliding rear window, dual front airbags, and air conditioning. Modifications reported by the seller are limited to a painted bed interior and a Pioneer head unit.
- Closely related to the Toyota Pickup sold in the United States, the sixth-generation Hilux made its debut in 1997 with a more spacious cab than its predecessor. It was available in several configurations with both gasoline- and diesel-burning engines, and it continued to offer the versatility and the dependability that the model had become known for.
- Power comes from a 2.4-liter turbodiesel inline-4, rated at approximately 96 horsepower and 163 lb-ft of torque. Output is directed to the rear or all four wheels through a 4-speed automatic transmission.
