Toyota dealers will soon begin retailing the extreme Hilux AT35. Fortunately the conversion by renowned Icelandic company Arctic Trucks is fully approved, so the pick-up’s five-year manufacturer warranty is unaffected.
Ground clearance is significantly increased thanks to a revised suspension set-up and some 17” x 10” wheels that are shod with 315/70R17 all-terrain tyres. As a result, the approach and departure angles have become 37° and 28° respectively.
Available in double cab guise only, the Hilux AT35 is powered by the familiar 2.4 litre turbocharged diesel engine. This four-cylinder unit delivers its 148 bhp (110 kW / 150 PS) and 400 Nm (295 lb/ft) of peak torque via a six-speed automatic transmission.
A UK price has yet to be announced.
