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 Mitsubishi Triton review
The latest addition to the Triton dual-cab ute range is a compelling unit, but it's a strong package held back by a few small quirks.
