There are very few vehicles on the planet that don't need an introduction, and the Toyota Hilux is one of them. For over five decades, it has served as the benchmark for unyielding, hammer-and-nail durability across deserts, construction sites, and remote back roads.

The real test is against modern rivals.

We got our hands on another Kia Tasman, more specifically, the 2.2D X Pro 4x4. This unit, however, isn't straight from the factory, as a few optional parts are fitted that might appeal to the off-road community.

Audi Q3 TFSI 110 kW S tronic S line Black (2026) Quick Review
The latest Audi Q3 is the quintessential German crossover—combining executive styling, cutting-edge lighting tech, and slick everyday ergonomics.
