- Australian design input
Misses
- Interior desperately needs a refresh
- Price keeps going up and up
- Short six-month/10,000km service intervals

Jack Quick drove this car and these were their findings:
Hits
- Bigger, gruntier diesel
- Finally has 3.5-tonne braked towing
- Compliant and resolved unladen ride
Misses
- Low-speed manoeuvring can be jerky
- Lane-keep assist still overbearing and intrusive
- Top-spec XSR missing safety equipment

2025 Toyota HiLux GR Sport review
The current Toyota HiLux is now a decade old, but the GR Sport flagship remains the best way to experience this ever-popular dual-cab 4x4 ute.

2025 GWM Cannon review
As far as mid-life updates go, this one has to be one of the most significant we've experienced. Should the Triton and Navara be scared?
