Toyota Hilux: Revo N80 vs AN220/AN230

Toyota Hilux Revo N80

Toyota Hilux Revo N80

Verdict

For a Malaysian buyer, the Toyota Hilux AN220/AN230 is the far more complete everyday pick-up: 193 hp and 473 Nm from two motors, five seats, seven airbags, stability control and a 360-degree camera move it well beyond the basic two-seat Revo N80. Its 59.2-kWh battery is rated for 257 km, so charging access matters. The Revo N80 counters with an 80-litre diesel tank, 1,955-kg kerb weight and a RM139,148 lower entry price. It is the work-first choice, not the family-friendly one.

Revo N80

Pick the Toyota Hilux Revo N80 if you need the much cheaper, lighter two-seat diesel workhorse with an 80-litre fuel tank and six-speed manual gearbox.

AN220/AN230

Pick the Toyota Hilux AN220/AN230 if you want five seats, EV torque, much stronger active safety and the equipment to use it as a family vehicle.
