“Everyone told me to see if these were actually as durable as they say they are, so here we go,” the YouTuber said.
The Toyota Hilux Durability Test 1
The YouTuber said he wanted to kick the test off with “what a normal person would do over the course of 25 years” but do it all “in one day.”
He started by slamming the doors as hard as he could, loading it up with 2500 pounds of blocks and pushing it so hard that it flew through the air.
Test 1 ended with him driving the Hilux straight into a tree, and apart from bending the frame a bit, the Hilux came away in unbelievable working order. “I’ve never seen anything take a beating like this, this is off the charts, this thing is insanely durable,” he said about the Hilux.
The Toyota Hilux Durability Test 2
He starts test two by simulating what they called “an average car wreck.” He crashes the car by rolling it onto its side.
While the front windscreen smashes, the rest of the truck remains in really good shape. He now tests its towing capacity, loading it up with 30,000 pounds, which is what the hitch is rated for.
Unsurprisingly, the eight-ton Hilux pulls the 30,000 pounds easily. He now did a tug of war-between the Hilux and a Ford Raptor.
At first, the Hilux pulls the Raptor easily, but then the Raptor takes over and wins. Considering what he already put the car through, the Hilux tried.
The Toyota Hilux Durability Test 3
The Hilux survived the third test where they launched it on the world’s toughest terrain in Moab Utah and the Hilux smashed the test still.
The Toyota Hilux Durability Test 4
This fourth and final test is the craziest. With the help of his team, they dropped the Hilux from 10,000 feet in the air using a helicopter to lift it up.
They started by dropping it at 500 feet to test how it would fair, but the truck wrecked and smashed into the ground. Still, they lifted it up again and dropped it 10,000 feet, the truck hit the ground after a while and scattered.
What’s the takeaway? The Toyota Hilux is an insanely durable vehicle until you try dropping it from a helicopter. Another thing is that there are people who are out there willing to do the craziest car reviews and tests.
