"The Toyota Hilux Champ, a compact pickup truck based on a kei car platform, has not undergone official crash testing by major global safety organizations such as Euro NCAP, Latin NCAP, or the NHTSA. While the full-size Toyota Hilux has received safety ratings in various regions, including a 5-star rating from Latin NCAP for adult and child occupant protection , and a 4-star rating from ASEAN NCAP , these results do not apply to the Hilux Champ variant.

The Hilux Champ is distinct from the full-size Hilux and is not currently available in the United States market. Importing it would be highly impractical due to the U.S. "chicken tax" on imported light trucks, which would significantly increase its cost, and the necessity of meeting stringent U.S. safety and emissions regulations, including mandatory crash testing by the NHTSA, which would be prohibitively expensive. There is no evidence that the Hilux Champ has been tested in any formal crash test program, and its safety performance remains unverified by independent safety assessment programs.
A 3 ton Toyota pickup with a 1 ton load capacity is probably not going to need the full suite of crash testing. The real problem is with the 2.4 liter turbo diesel. To the environmentalists credit, they really did win America's war against clouds of smog, although it cost Americans a pretty penny. This made-in-Thailand truck is designed for emerging economies, where air quality is comparable to smoking 3.5 cigarettes per day.
