On the post-2015 Hilux the fuel tank gets only token factory protection — a plastic moulding will not stop a root or a protruding rock. This Rival plate puts a solid sheet of aluminium under it.

4.0 mm aluminium. Rival specifies 4.0 mm aluminium in silver. It is the thickness aimed at everyday use: gravel, forest tracks, construction access roads — conditions where impacts are frequent but not extreme.

Installation. A fitting kit is supplied with the plate.

Fitment. Toyota Hilux Revo, model years 2015-2020 and 2020-2025, with 2.7 l petrol and 2.4 l or 2.8 l diesel engines — catalogue name and technical description agree on this one.

Owners tend to add the tank plate when the truck leaves sealed roads with a full tank and a few hundred kilometres to the next fuel stop.
