Video 2018 Mercedes X-Class vs 2017 Toyota Hilux

Mercedes-Benz X-Class
With its progressive design, the Mercedes-Benz X-Class manages the fine balance between being both robust and stylish. As such, it brings a wind of change to the mid-size pickup segment, opening it up to new customer groups. The X-Class embodies the new and enhanced Mercedes-Benz design philosophy of sensual purity. Its purist design emphasises the surfaces and features stripped-down, extremely precise design elements to create an emotive, elongated silhouette packed with dynamic energy - and almost unlimited functionality. In order to serve the needs of different customer groups effectively, there are three design and equipment lines to choose from. These vary in terms of design and scope of functions: the PURE variant is designed for conventional use as a rugged pickup, the PROGRESSIVE meets higher requirements in terms of quality feel and comfort, and the POWER is the high-end variant for urban lifestyles.

The X-Class's design draws attention to the basic virtues of a pickup - robustness, strength and off-road capability - in an emotionally appealing way. Even the dimensions themselves exude effortless superiority with a length of 5340 millimetres, a width of 1920 millimetres (excluding the outside mirrors) and a height of 1819 millimetres. Both physically imposing and hardworking, the X-Class can haul a payload of up to 1.1 tonnes. That is enough to transport 17 full 50-litre barrels of beer in the cargo area. Able to tow up to 3.5 tonnes, it can pull a trailer containing three horses or an eight-metre yacht.

Toyota Hilux

First released in 1968, and one year later throughout Europe, the legendary Toyota Hilux has been a dominant presence in the global pick-up market for nearly 50 years.

To date, the world's favourite pick-up has recorded cumulative global sales of over 16 million units. In Europe, some 36,000 Hilux vehicles were sold in 2014, representing a 23.5% share of the segment. And making Hilux Europe's best-selling pick-up.

Renowned for its Quality, Durability and Reliability (QDR), the unstoppable Hilux continues to amaze as it conquers the North Pole, Icelandic volcanos, the Antarctic continent, and achieves podium finishes in the Dakar Rally Raid.

The new, 8th generation Hilux builds on this legendary reputation and invincible QDR, redefining toughness for business users with a new and stronger ladder chassis, a reinforced deck structure, enhanced 4x4 capabilities, and an improved towing capacity.

At the same time, the new Hilux responds to a growth in pick-up leisure usage in recent years with a new, contemporary design, greater comfort, advanced equipment and improved safety, making it more stylish and stress-free to drive than ever.

Fulfilling user requirements for both a durable business workhorse and a stylish, comfortable leisure 4x4, the new Hilux has been designed to offer all its customers significant improvements in 6 key areas:

Design - Workhorse toughness and rugged durability combined with new-found levels of refinement and the looks even business users can be proud of.
Comfort - A more spacious and comfortable interior combining SUV practicality and functionality with passenger car-like cabin NVH levels.
Safety - A high strength, impact-absorbing body structure and comprehensive brake control systems including ABS, EBD, VSC and Trailer Sway Control (TSC).
QDR - A new, tougher ladder chassis, a reinforced deck structure and Active Traction Control (A-TRC), Downhill Assist Control (DAC) and Hill-start Assist Control (HAC) systems raise 4x4 capabilities to match Land Cruiser levels.
Commercial Vehicle Capabilities - A larger, stronger and more practical cargo deck and an improved, 3.2 ton towing capacity.
Total Cost of Ownership - New 2.4 and 2.8 D-4D engines with class-leading fuel economy.
Tougher, stronger and more capable off-road than ever before, the all-new Toyota remains every inch a Hilux. Yet it also heralds a new era for the pick-up, with the style, comfort, safety and advanced technology to satisfy even the most discerning leisure users.

Fulfilling the diverse requirements of the broadest customer base yet, the all-new Toyota Hilux targets European sales of over 40,000 units per annum.
