Reliable. Rugged. An Alternative SUV for Gilgit-Baltistan Explorations
The Toyota Hilux Surf is a tough and practical 4×4 SUV built for mountainous terrain and challenging roads. While it offers strong off-road performance and a spacious interior, it’s generally less in demand compared to the more refined Prado TX/TZ models in Gilgit-Baltistan.
Engine: 2.7L Petrol or 3.0L Turbo Diesel
