The turning circle compared to other Toyota models
Stacked against its Toyota siblings, the Hilux doesn't exactly pirouette in its living room with the finesse of, say, the Aygo X at 9.40 meters – that one's practically wearing ballet slippers. Naturally, city slickers like the Toyota Yaris and the Corolla carve circles smaller than the Hilux, ranging from 10.20 to 10.40 meters. The Hilux, for all its rugged charm, is no street-weaving pixie, with a turning diameter matching the more substantial Toyota Land Cruiser and the executive shuttle, the Mirai, both at a comparable 12.60 meters.

How does the turning circle of the Toyota Hilux compare to it's nearest competitors?
The Mercedes-Benz X-Klasse spins a broader circle at 13.40 meters, while the Jeep Grand Cherokee, all American beef and bravado, can about-face at 11.10 meters. For those interested in lighter vehicles, the Aixam Emotion and Microcar M.Go are gymnasts in comparison, twirling at around 8.00 to 8.30 meters. But let’s be honest, these urban chariots would likely get stage fright if confronted with the rugged terrains the Hilux shrugs off before breakfast.
