It’s official, folks: Toyota will be showcasing the fully electric Hilux, the Land Cruiser FJ, and the hybrid LC300 at the 10th Philippine International Motor Show. The event will open tomorrow, June 4, 2026, and will continue until Sunday, June 7. It will take place at the World Trade Center Manila in Pasay City, and interested visitors can purchase tickets now.

This announcement doesn’t come as a complete surprise, as Toyota Motor Philippines has teased its three-car PIMS lineup before. Thankfully, our predictions were correct, and we will finally see these vehicles on Philippine soil very soon.

We most recently saw the Hilux BEV and the Land Cruiser FJ at the 2026 Bangkok International Motor Show, while the electrified LC300 has long been rumored to enter our local market.

While the brand’s recent releases have been mostly fully electric and hybrid vehicles, the Land Cruiser FJ will serve as the latest combustion-engined offering. It will also be equipped with a differential lock, an auto limited-slip differential, a second start mode, and a panoramic-view monitor.

The new Hilux, however, will join the Urban Cruiser and the bZ4X as the third full EV in Toyota’s local stable. And like the diesel-powered models that came before it, this electric workhorse will have a 4x4 drivetrain.

Finally, the LC300 HEV will pack a powerful 3.5-liter V6 engine to match its efficient hybrid system. It also gets some styling updates, with a new aero-style bodykit and Jet Black garnishes.
