About this vehicle

Vehicle Overview

The 2022 Toyota Hilux GR Sport (GR-S) 2.8GD-6 Double Cabin represents the ultimate high-performance evolution of South Africa’s best-selling bakkie, engineered with genuine performance upgrades over the standard Legend trims. Having covered 75,000 kilometers since its import from South Africa, this highly capable truck benefits from an exclusive factory ECU tune boosting both power and torque, alongside a significantly widened track and upgraded sports suspension. It is exceptionally well-suited for the Kenyan market, offering die-hard commercial durability blended with aggressive styling and long-range rally-inspired cross-country capability.

Wheels and Chassis

  • Wheels: 17-inch gloss-black GR-exclusive alloy wheels wrapped in rugged 265/65 R17 All-Terrain tires.

  • Suspension: Specialized red KYB monotube shock absorbers and revised front coil springs paired with heavy-duty rear leaf springs (minus the rear stabilizer bar for increased off-road wheel articulation).

  • Key Chassis Features: “Wide Tread” chassis architecture extending the track width by 135 mm at the front and 155 mm at the rear compared to core Hilux models, matched with uprated 4-piston fixed front red brake calipers.

Offroad Capability

  • System Tech: 265 mm ground clearance, 30-degree approach angle, 23-degree departure angle, and an Automatic Limited Slip Differential (Auto-LSD) providing optimal power distribution across low-traction terrain.

  • Kenyan Terrain Suitability: Purpose-built for high-speed corrugated tracks, this South African build effortlessly dampens brutal washboard gravel paths across the Maasai Mara or North Eastern corridors while avoiding underbody damage thanks to a standard heavy-duty front aluminum bash plate.

Summary

The 2022 Toyota Hilux GR Sport 2.8GD-6 stands as an incredibly attractive, robust package for Kenyan buyers seeking a dual-purpose double cabin that dominates both commercial tasks and extreme off-road driving. Its specialized South African suspension build and upgraded 224 hp engine allow it to sail smoothly over degraded local roads where standard pickups struggle with harsh body roll. Given its top-tier trim status and legendary reliability, it retains immense secondary market resale value while delivering some of the lowest running costs in the high-output pickup sector.
