The Hilux kit reproduces the Toyota pickup with a ladder frame chassis and a shaft-driven 4WD layout to provide realistic handling. The bundled MFC-02 unit supplies sampled engine audio, programmable lighting and vibration feedback for a convincing scale presentation.
The MFC-02 offers selectable recorded engine profiles, including a V8 and a turbocharged option. It recreates ignition and idle characteristics and responds to throttle changes for a believable soundscape.
Lighting mimics HID-style headlights, with full beam, road lights and auxiliary lamps that respond to commands. Indicators and reverse lamps operate in coordination with control inputs to maintain scale realism.
The model features a 3-speed gearbox for varied driving conditions and includes metal components such as the front guard and aluminium friction dampers to increase durability. Oversized tyres give improved ground clearance and the resin body captures the Hilux styling.
The Tamiya Hilux High-Lift is aimed at modelers who appreciate precise scale detail, faithful sound and lighting, and a mechanical layout that stays true to the original pickup.
