How many liters does a Toyota Hilux take?
The Toyota Hilux typically has a main fuel tank capacity of about 80 liters. In some markets and on certain trims, the tank can be slightly smaller (around 75–76 liters), and there are aftermarket or dealer options that can affect usable capacity. For your exact model, check the owner’s manual or the fuel-tank labeling on the vehicle.
Understanding the tank size helps with planning range, refueling frequency, and maintenance. The following sections outline common capacities and how to verify the precise figure for your particular Hilux.
Typical tank capacity you can expect
Below is a quick reference of common tank capacities by generation and market to give you a sense of what you can expect.
Regional and trim differences
Tank sizes can vary by market, trim level, and generation. In practice, many markets list the main tank as 80 liters, while some local trims use 75–76 liters.
- Current-generation Hilux (2015–present): commonly 80 liters in most markets.
- Earlier generations (roughly 2005–2015): commonly around 75–80 liters, depending on market and trim.
- Market- or trim-specific variations: some regions offer 75–76 liter tanks on particular variants.
- Extended-range or aftermarket options: not standard and can increase usable capacity, but are not part of the factory main tank.
Because tank capacity can vary by market, trim level, and generation, verify the exact figure for your vehicle using official documentation or a dealer.
How to confirm the exact capacity for your Hilux
To ensure you have the precise number for your specific Hilux, use these steps:
- Check the owner's manual or the official brochure for your market and trim level.
- Look at the fuel-filler door label or the tank specification section in the manual.
- Use Toyota's official website or contact a local dealer with your VIN for model-specific specs.
- If you have access to the vehicle, you can refill to the nozzle stop and note liters dispensed, though this is not a substitute for official documentation.
Reliable confirmation comes from the owner's manual or dealer documentation for your exact vehicle.
Summary
In most contemporary Toyota Hilux models, the main fuel tank holds about 80 liters, with regional variations that can place the capacity at around 75–76 liters on some trims. Always verify the precise figure for your specific vehicle in official documentation or with a dealer.
