The details may all be released heading into the end of this year for the new Hilux, or it could even be sometime next year. But soon enough the biggest car manufacturer in the world will debut what they have been working on for years, their new flagship ute. The current spec hilux is enhanced to stay competitive in the market, but if it was me purchasing the current model brand new this year, I know that if I was to have it for under 12 months of ownership before there flash new one with groundbreaking features for the company was available to order, it was be a sour feeling.

Depending on the value of the previous gen utes when the new one is finally announced (they will most likely not lose much market value, this is Toyota we are talking about) you may not lose much of your investment at all, but still could be a pain to buy and sell vehicles so frequently.

If you are getting around in a beater car at the moment and would like a new 4x4, then patience might be a nice trait to have come a year from now. People always love having the newest stuff. And if you don't have the budget for the brand new one, more will hit the market for sure once all the early adopters start getting there next gen.
