A new Hilux costs R587,200 to R1,001,900. That is the new Hilux (ninth generation, on sale from June 2026), at Toyota’s list price. Toyota also still sells the old shape new, from R379,700.
Used, a GD-6 Hilux (2016 to 2026) with over 5,000 km asks about R469,900. That is across 3,869 listings. A Hilux from before 2016 asks about R245,000 (560 listings).
We track about 5,500 Hiluxes for sale every day. See them on our Hilux listings page, with live numbers on Hilux GD-6 market data.

Toyota South Africa list prices on 24 September 2026. Prices change: confirm with a dealer.
For now, every new Hilux is a 2.8 GD-6 turbodiesel with a 6-speed automatic. GD-6 is Toyota’s name for its diesel engine family since 2016. It makes 150 kW and 500 Nm. There is no manual, no 2.4, no petrol and no GR-Sport in the new shape yet.
Prices have crept up since launch. At launch in June the top Legend cost R999,900. It now costs R1,001,900, so the flagship has crossed the million. The double cabs and Xtra Cabs went on sale in June 2026. The single cabs followed in August.
The Legend is an MHEV. That means a mild hybrid: a small 48-volt electric boost, not a plug-in. It is not new, though. Toyota put it in the old shape in March 2024. So a used 2024 or 2025 Raider or Legend can be a mild hybrid too.
So what does the extra money buy? Same engine, same ladder frame, so plenty of owners call it a facelift with a new price tag. What you pay for is the cabin, the ride and the tech:
- Seven airbags on every model.
- On the Legend, Toyota Safety Sense 3.0. That includes braking before a crash, lane help, a blind spot warning and a 360-degree camera.
- On the SRX, an 8-inch screen with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto.
- On the top grades, two 12.3-inch screens.
Every new Hilux, old shape or new, gets a 3-year/100,000 km warranty and a 9-service/90,000 km service plan. The new one is built at Toyota’s Prospecton plant in Durban.
The SRX is the price leader. The Raider is the one most buyers aim for, because it has the kit the SRX leaves out. Some buyers pick a Raider over the Legend because they would rather not own a hybrid battery. That is a buyer worry, not a known fault.
Next up is the 2.4. Toyota SA says the 2.4 GD-6 joins the new Hilux in the first quarter of 2027, with a 6-speed manual. Prices have not been announced.
The cheapest new Hilux is the old shape
| Old shape, still sold new | Toyota list price |
|---|---|
| Single Cab 2.0 VVTi S (petrol), manual | R379,700 |
| Single Cab 2.4 GD S, manual | R426,300 |
| Single Cab 2.4 GD-6 SR 4x2, manual | R513,000 |
| Double Cab 2.4 GD-6 SR 4x2, manual | R583,500 |
| Double Cab 2.4 GD-6 Raider 4x4, manual | R698,500 |
| Double Cab 2.4 GD-6 Raider 4x4, auto | R730,700 |
Toyota South Africa list prices on 24 September 2026. Six of about a dozen old-shape versions still listed.
About a dozen old-shape versions are still on Toyota SA’s list. Toyota is keeping the old 2.4s going until the new 2.4 arrives in early 2027. Toyota SA still lists the 2.0 petrol single cab at R379,700, while stock lasts.
Do the sum on a Raider. A new old-shape 2.4 Raider 4x4 double cab manual costs R698,500. A new-shape 2.8 Raider 4x4 costs R892,900. That is about R194,000 less for the old one. You give up 40 kW and the new cabin. You keep a full warranty and 3,500 kg of braked towing on the 4x4.
One catch. When you sell it, buyers will price it as an old-shape Hilux, whatever year is on the papers.
New or nearly new?
First, the old shape’s last Toyota SA list prices (May 2026) against today’s new shape.
| Double cab, 2.8 auto | Last old-shape price (May 2026) | New shape (24 Sep 2026) |
|---|---|---|
| Raider 4x4 | R867,200 | R892,900 |
| Raider 4x2 | R777,600 | R799,900 |
| Legend 55 4x4 vs new Legend MHEV 4x4 | R945,300 | R1,001,900 |
| GR-Sport 4x4 | R1,009,000 | not offered |
Like for like, a new Raider costs about R26,000 more than the last old Raider. That is about 3%. The new Legend costs about R57,000 more than the Legend 55. For that you get the new safety kit.
Now the nearly new ones on live listings. These are 2.8 double cabs only, to compare fairly with the new shape.
| Double cab (2.8 GD-6) | New list price | 2026 on sale | 2025 on sale | 2024 on sale |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| SRX 4x4 | R752,900 | R708,950 (160) | too few | too few |
| Raider 4x4 | R892,900 | R831,950 (78) | R749,900 (17) | R672,650 (22) |
| Legend 4x4 | R1,001,900 | R999,900 (37) | R799,993 (84) | R752,948 (42) |
Typical asking prices on live listings, 24 September 2026. Number of listings in brackets. The 2024 and 2025 cars show about 17,000 to 65,000 km. Most 2026 cars show under 1,000 km.
A “2026 Hilux” for sale is not always the new one. At least four in ten 2026 Hiluxes on sale are run-out stock of the old shape. Of 1,397 listings, 598 certainly are. Most are dealer stock: 843 show under 1,000 km, and the typical one shows 100 km.
- A 2026 2.8 Raider 4x4 on sale asks about R61,000 under a new-shape Raider’s list price. Many of these are the old shape, though. Against the last old-shape Raider price of R867,200, the gap is about R35,000.
- A 2025 Raider 4x4 asks about R143,000 less than a new one. The typical one has done 17,222 km.
- A 2025 Legend 4x4 asks about R202,000 less than a new Legend MHEV 4x4. It asks about R145,000 less than the Legend 55’s last price.
- The 2026 SRX 4x4 asks about R44,000 under the new list price, with almost no km. Dealers are discounting.
- The 2026 Legend 4x4 sits right on the new list price. That is likely mostly new stock at full price.
Stock of the new model was limited early on, which matters for how hard you can haggle.
Want a GR-Sport? No new-shape GR-Sport has been announced, so run-out and used are the only way to get one. A 2026 GR-Sport asks about R1,149,900 (14 listings). A 2025 asks about R999,900 (27 listings).
Run-out and demo bakkies have one trap. They come with what is left of the warranty and service plan, not a fresh one. Ask when the warranty started. Check the exact km. Then check the registration date against the model year.
Used Hilux prices by year: the GD-6 (2016 to 2026)
This is the GD-6 Hilux (2016 to 2026, eighth generation).
| Model year | Typical asking | Listings | Typical km |
|---|---|---|---|
| 2026 (all, mostly new stock) | R689,900 | 1,397 | 100 |
| 2026, used only (over 5,000 km) | R644,899 | 344 | 11,957 |
| 2025 | R599,900 | 544 | 31,000 |
| 2024 | R549,900 | 454 | 69,395 |
| 2023 | R495,000 | 535 | 99,800 |
| 2022 | R459,900 | 351 | 114,442 |
| 2021 | R459,000 | 392 | 129,512 |
| 2020 | R430,000 | 334 | 141,315 |
| 2019 | R389,990 | 310 | 152,887 |
| 2018 | R387,450 | 238 | 171,700 |
| 2017 | R375,000 | 261 | 172,260 |
| 2016 | R369,400 | 136 | 175,000 |
Typical asking prices on live listings, 24 September 2026. A used-only 2025 figure is the same (R599,925, 522 listings), so it has one row. Another 21 Hiluxes sold as 2016 models are late D-4Ds, in the next table.
Each row mixes single, Xtra and double cabs. It also mixes the 2.0, 2.4 and 2.8. The 2023 row is pulled down by lots of single cabs (99 of the 535). For like for like, see the cab and trim sections below.
Two more exact ones:
- A 2023 2.8 GD-6 asks about R599,900 (210 listings).
- A 2022 Raider asks about R419,990 across all cabs and engines (128 listings).
The engine line matters more than the year. Hiluxes built from October 2020 have the stronger 2.8. It makes 150 kW, and 500 Nm in the automatic, the same as a brand-new one. Earlier 2.8s make 130 kW. The manual kept its old torque. So most 2019 and 2020 cars have the older engine. The Fortuner, on the same platform, got the same upgrade (see our Fortuner price guide).
2.4 or 2.8? Locals use a simple rule. The 2.4 is for work and fuel. The 2.8 is for towing and the open road. The 2.4 GD-6 makes 110 kW and 400 Nm.
Look at the km column too. Most GD-6s on sale have done about 20,000 to 35,000 km a year. The oldest ones have done a bit less.
How fast do they lose value? Take one like-for-like case. A 2.8 Raider 4x4 double cab automatic listed at R706,400 new in October 2020. A 2021 2.8 Raider 4x4 double cab asks about R539,999 today (19 listings, manuals and autos). That is about 76% after five years. List prices rose during 2021, so treat that as a rough guide.
“A Hilux holds its value” is mostly true, but it is not a law. Prices move with supply, interest rates and new-model launches. Owners remember used Toyotas going for more than new list price during Covid. Then in 2023 prices dipped as fleets sold their bakkies off. A new generation is that kind of event for the old shape.
Older Hilux prices: the D-4D (2005 to 2016) and before
The D-4D Hilux (2005 to 2016, seventh generation) is the budget way into a diesel Hilux. D-4D is Toyota’s name for its common-rail turbodiesels of that era. Hiluxes from before 2005 are the sixth generation. They have different engines, like the 3.0 KZ-TE turbodiesel and the 2.7 petrol. They are not D-4Ds.
| Model year | Typical asking | Listings | Typical km |
|---|---|---|---|
| 2016 (late D-4D) | R269,900 | 21 | 242,392 |
| 2015 | R280,000 | 91 | 237,000 |
| 2014 | R263,450 | 88 | 207,000 |
| 2013 | R269,948 | 64 | 222,000 |
| 2012 | R259,800 | 43 | 220,000 |
| 2011 | R269,900 | 43 | 236,503 |
| 2010 | R249,899 | 39 | 250,134 |
| 2009 | R220,000 | 17 | 276,000 |
| 2008 | R224,945 | 30 | 239,645 |
| 2007 | R219,900 | 29 | 281,622 |
| 2006 | R219,900 | 13 | 226,456 |
| 2005 | R204,948 | 20 | 293,652 |
| 2004 | R199,900 | 15 | 217,000 |
| 2003 | R160,000 | 12 | 299,709 |
| 2001 | R149,950 | 11 | 234,339 |
| 1999 to 2002, grouped | R189,945 | 22 | 251,757 |
Typical asking prices on live listings, 24 September 2026. Years with fewer than 10 listings are left out or grouped. The 1999 to 2002 group includes the 2001 cars.
From 2010 to 2015 the price hardly moves by year. Every row sits at 200,000 km or more. So the service book and the condition matter more than the year.
By engine, 2005 to 2015:
| Engine (2005 to 2015) | Typical asking | Listings |
|---|---|---|
| 3.0 D-4D | R279,900 | 262 |
| 2.7 petrol | R239,993 | 64 |
| 2.0 petrol | R229,900 | 35 |
| 4.0 V6 petrol | R229,900 | 13 |
| 2.5 D-4D | R209,990 | 101 |
The 3.0 D-4D is the one people want. It makes 120 kW and 343 Nm. A 2013 3.0 D-4D asks about R304,948 (36 listings, typical 228,000 km).
Searching “Hilux 2000”? Hiluxes from 1999 to 2002 ask about R189,945 (22 listings). You may mean the 2.0 petrol engine instead. A GD-6 era 2.0 VVTi asks about R329,900 (189 listings, typical 48,000 km). At the bottom end, a tired early-2000s Hilux can still ask under R100,000. Only 5 do.
The Legend 40 was a 2010 special edition for 40 years of the Hilux in South Africa. It came on the D-4D shape, with the 3.0 D-4D, 2.7 petrol or 4.0 V6. Only 3 are for sale now, too few for a typical price. A Legend 45 (2014 to 2016) asks about R299,970 (82 listings). A Legend 50 (2019 to 2022) asks about R499,000 (131 listings).
Two checks before you buy an older Hilux:
- Airbags. Hiluxes from 2004 to 2015 are in Toyota SA’s Takata airbag recall. The fix is free at any Toyota dealer. Check the VIN at toyota.co.za/takatarecall, or call 0800 139 111. In April 2026, about 37% of affected Toyotas in SA were still not fixed. This is the most useful check on a D-4D.
- Injectors on the 3.0 D-4D. Ask when they were last tested. A knock with white smoke on a cold start is the warning sign. Worn injectors can wreck a piston. One owner was quoted about R120,000 for a new engine.
The live numbers for this generation are on Hilux D-4D market data.
The double cab premium: about R175,000
On used GD-6 listings, a double cab asks about R175,000 more than a single cab. That is about 47% more.
| Cab (used, over 5,000 km) | Typical asking | Listings | Typical km |
|---|---|---|---|
| Double cab | R549,900 | 2,071 | 93,000 |
| Xtra Cab | R449,950 | 840 | 113,275 |
| Single cab | R375,000 | 625 | 92,000 |
GD-6 era, 24 September 2026. Another 369 listings do not say the cab, so they are left out.
Not all of that gap is the cab. Double cabs carry the Raider, Legend and GR-Sport trims. Single cabs are mostly work spec. So here is the same year side by side:
| Year | Double cab | Single cab | Gap |
|---|---|---|---|
| 2017 | R399,999 (159) | R249,995 (33) | about R150,000 |
| 2019 | R429,973 (144) | R279,000 (37) | about R151,000 |
| 2021 | R519,900 (194) | R299,900 (41) | about R220,000 |
| 2023 | R549,900 (290) | R399,900 (99) | about R150,000 |
| 2025 | R659,900 (358) | R395,000 (119) | about R265,000 |
Typical asking prices, number of listings in brackets.
New, the gap is smaller. A new SRX double cab 4x2 costs R78,100 more than a new SRX single cab 4x2.
The white single cab is the farm, building-site and fleet bakkie of this country. So a fleet single cab with high km is a normal, honest used buy here. Not a warning sign on its own.
What moves an individual Hilux’s price
- 4x4 or 4x2. Take the same year and trim of 2.8 double cab. The 4x4 asks about R35,000 to R110,000 more. On a Raider the gap is usually about R50,000. New, the gap on the SRX double cab is R87,600.
- Trim. The ladder runs SRX (new shape) or SR, then Raider, then Legend. The GR-Sport is the sporty top of the old shape. Legend is a trim, and also a line of numbered specials like the Legend 55.
- Engine and build date. A 2.8 asks more than a 2.4. A 2.8 built from late 2020 has the stronger engine.
- Kilometres. Here is what km do to a 2021 or 2022 2.8 double cab:
| Kilometres | Typical asking | Listings |
|---|---|---|
| Under 100,000 km | R639,900 | 99 |
| 100,000 to 150,000 km | R589,899 | 74 |
| Over 150,000 km | R549,900 | 48 |
So each step up in km takes about R40,000 to R50,000 off the asking price.
The costs around the price
Security and insurance. At least one big insurer ranks the Hilux as the most hijacked vehicle in the country. Some insurers insist on a tracker. One big insurer has asked for two on high-risk models. Cover can also cost a lot more in Gauteng than in the Western Cape for the same driver. So get an insurance quote before you sign. The same protection layers we explain for Land Cruisers apply to a Hilux.
Finance and the balloon. A balloon is a lump sum left for the end of the finance deal. It makes the monthly payment smaller. At WesBank, 35% of new finance deals in August 2025 had one. The average balloon was 37% of the price. You pay interest on that lump sum for the whole term. Before you sign one on a new Hilux, check what a 4 or 5 year old one asks in the GD-6 table. That is roughly what you will trade in against.
The Ford Ranger is the obvious cross-shop, and a dealer knows it.
Asking price is not selling price
Every used number in this guide is an asking price. It is where the haggle starts, from dealers and private sellers. Final selling prices are not public, and they are usually lower.
