How big is the load bed on a Toyota Hilux?
The load bed on a Toyota Hilux is typically about 1.52 meters long on the common double‑cab configuration, with longer-bed options around 1.7–1.8 meters where offered. Exact measurements depend on the cab style and market.
The Hilux has multiple cab configurations—Single Cab, Extra Cab (sometimes called Xtra Cab), and Double Cab—and bed lengths that vary by market and model year. This article outlines typical sizes and provides guidance to find the precise specification for your country and trim.
Bed sizes by cab configuration
The following figures reflect common specifications for modern Hilux models in many markets. Always verify against the official brochure for your country.
- Double Cab – Short Bed: typically about 1,520 mm (59.8 in) long from tailgate to cab.
- Double Cab – Long Bed (where offered): typically around 1,700–1,800 mm (67–71 in) long.
- Single Cab or Extra Cab variants: bed lengths vary by market, with some markets offering long-bed options similar to the long Double Cab length; expect roughly 1,520 mm to 1,800 mm (59.8–71 in) depending on configuration.
Note: The bed width and height are also market-specific and generally referenced as the internal bed width between the sides and the floor-to-top height. Typical internal widths are roughly 1.4–1.5 meters (about 55–59 in), with the overall external width around 1.8–1.9 meters depending on fascia and bed rails.
How to verify your exact bed size
To ensure you have the precise measurements for your Hilux, use these steps:
- Check the official Toyota brochure for your country and model year; bed length, width, and volume are listed in the specifications.
- Measure the bed yourself: start at the tailgate and measure to the cab wall for length; measure the inside width between the bed sides; measure bed floor to the top rail for height.
- Contact a local Toyota dealer for a configuration chart that includes your cab style and bed option.
Concluding: The exact bed size depends on cab configuration and market, but the standard Double Cab short-bed bed is about 1.52 meters long, with longer-bed options around 1.7–1.8 meters where available.
Summary
Toyota Hilux bed dimensions vary by generation, cab style, and market. For most buyers, the common Double Cab short-bed measures roughly 1.52 meters in length, while longer-bed options reach about 1.7–1.8 meters in markets that offer them. To get the precise figures for your vehicle, consult the official spec sheets from Toyota for your country and model year, or speak with a local dealer. This ensures you have accurate measurements for planning payloads, accessories, and cargo needs.
