Toyota Pickup - 4th Gen (1984 to 1988)

Toyota introduced a redesigned Pickup (or Hilux in markets outside the USA) for the 1984 model year. This fourth generation of the popular tiny truck saw an expansion of space with the Xtracab feature and multiple engine options. Toyota offered multiple gas-powered engines such as the 2.4L I4 (22R), the 2.4L I4 (22R-E), the 2.4L Turbo I4 (22R-TE & TEC), and the 3.0L V6 (3VZ-E), and a limited number with diesel engines like the 2.4L Turbodiesel I4 (2L-T). These trucks were available with a four or five-speed manual or a three or four-speed automatic transmissions. However, the most distinguishing factor in the market was the drive type option: either 4WD (four wheel drive) or RWD (rear wheel drive). The 4WD variant was fitted with an updated independent front suspension. The fourth generation Pickup was replaced by the 5th Gen Toyota Pickup in 1989.
