In Japan, it was available at the Toyota Japan dealership retail chains called Toyota Store and Toyopet Store. The Hilux started production in March 1968 as the RN10 in short-wheelbase form with a 1.5 L inline-four engine, generating a maximum power output of 77 PS (57 kW 76 hp) in Japanese market specification. In 2019, Toyota revealed plans to introduce an EV Hilux within six years. Since 1995, the 4Runner is a standalone SUV, and the more recent models of the Hilux are separate in appearance from the Tacoma. In 1992, Toyota introduced a newer pickup model, the mid-size T100 in North America, necessitating distinct names for each vehicle other than Truck and Pickup Truck. In 1984, the Trekker, the wagon version of the Hilux, was renamed the 4Runner in Venezuela, Australia and North America, and the Hilux Surf in Japan.

In North America, the popular option package, the SR5 (Sport Runabout 5-Speed), was colloquially used as a model name for the truck, even though the option package was also used on other Toyota models, like the 1972 to 1979 Corolla. The pickup truck was sold with the HiLux name in most markets, but in North America, the Hilux name was retired in 1976 in favor of Truck, Pickup Truck, or Compact Truck. The majority of these vehicles are sold as pickup truck or cab chassis variants, although they could be configured in a variety of body styles.
