Add a rally-raid replica to your collection with the Toyota Hilux No.231 22nd Place Dakar 2023. This officially licensed model represents the cross-country entry driven by Romain Dumas with co-driver Max Delfino, finishing 22nd overall on one of motorsport’s most demanding events.
The Toyota Hilux is the most successful machine in modern Dakar history, developed by Toyota Gazoo Racing and its partners into a purpose-built T1+ category cross-country racer. Beneath the production-derived silhouette sits a tubular spaceframe chassis, long-travel independent suspension and a turbocharged V6 powering all four wheels through a sequential gearbox. The platform is engineered for thousands of kilometres of dune crossings, fast pistes and rocky stages, and has carried multiple crews to overall Dakar victories. The 2023 specification benefited from updated aerodynamics and chassis revisions introduced for the T1+ regulations.
At the 2023 Dakar Rally, held across Saudi Arabia over two weeks of marathon stages, the No.231 Hilux of Dumas and Delfino tackled the full route against a deep field of factory Toyota, Audi, Prodrive and privateer entries. The crew brought the car home in 22nd place overall in the car category, completing one of the most attritional editions in recent memory.
Made by Spark in 1:43 scale, this resin model measures approximately 11cm and is supplied on a branded display base with a clear acrylic cover. At this scale the Hilux sits comfortably alongside other Spark Dakar and WRC releases, offering a consistent shelf presentation for cross-country rally collectors.
A strong choice for Dakar Rally followers, Toyota Gazoo Racing collectors and fans of Romain Dumas’s wide-ranging motorsport career across endurance, hillclimb and rally-raid disciplines.

Understanding Scale
The scale of a model is its size as a proportion to the real-life item. For instance, a 1:18 scale model means that every 1 unit of measurement on the model equals 18 units on the real item. If you divide the real item's size by 18, you'd get the size of the 1:18 model. Please note that models can vary slightly in size, as not all real-life items, like cars or planes, have the same dimensions.
