Pickup
Load capacity without compromising comfort
Our pickup fleet consists of two Toyota Hilux versions: one ready for passengers and luggage, and another with a cargo bed or utility rack for work.
Features
- 5-passenger capacity
- True rear cargo bed, distinct from the enclosed trunk of a sedan or SUV
- Work version available with a diesel engine
- High cargo capacity without sacrificing cabin space
Use cases
A pickup is the right choice when your luggage or cargo won't fit in a standard car trunk: work equipment, tools, or trips that require transporting more volume than usual.
Recommendation
Renting a pickup in Costa Rica is the most practical option when you need real cargo space alongside passenger seating—something neither an SUV nor a van offers in the same way.
Which vehicle is best for your trip?

It depends on your trip plan: a sedan is ideal for the city, with the best fuel efficiency; an SUV combines comfort with capability for varied roads; a van works for large groups; a pickup or a work vehicle handle cargo needs; and a 4x4 is the best option when the route leaves the pavement. Explore the full vehicle catalog to compare all options.
It's worth it when the itinerary leaves the pavement: gravel or dirt roads, mountain or volcano climbs, or during the rainy season (May to November), when four-wheel drive gives you more safety and control on uneven surfaces or steep grades. For routes that stay in the city and on paved highways, a sedan or SUV is more fuel-efficient. See the details in our 4x4 category.
An SUV has more ground clearance than a sedan and handles occasional gravel roads, beaches, or gentle mountain terrain well. A 4x4 adds four-wheel drive, built for uneven terrain, steep grades, or heavy rain. When the route combines city driving with some varied terrain, an SUV is enough; if the plan includes rural or mountain roads, the 4x4 is the safer choice.
It depends on the volume: an enclosed panel van for medium loads, a work pickup with a cargo bed or fold-out structure, or a truck for large moves or distribution. See the full commercial fleet and rates on our Truck Rental page.
