Exterior

• Although this generation of the Hilux shares its platform with the older version, it still has undergone a thorough styling update, giving it a sharper and bolder personality.

• Upfront, you get to see a massive grille with ‘TOYOTA’ spelt out on a gloss black insert instead of the brand’s logo. You also have slimmer LED headlamps, a butch silver skid plate and a sculpted bumper.

• In profile, it now looks more aggressive and taller than the outgoing version, with a few elements like thick cladding, black painted door handles and 17-inch black alloy wheels.

• The Indian market only gets the dual-cab version of the pickup, and hence has a smaller bed.

• The rear-end gets uplifted too, with larger LED headlamps, a chunky bumper and ‘TOYOTA’ stickering on the tailgate.

Colour Options

The new Hilux is offered in 6 colour options:

• Sulphur Metallic

• Platinum Pearl White Metallic

• Atitude Black

• Ash

• Emotional Red
• Super White

Interior

• The Hilux’s interior now follows an all-black, boxy and sculpted theme which lends a properly tough look to the cabin.

• The upright dashboard looks quite busy, and has soft-touch material as well. There is a new larger ‘floating’ touchscreen infotainment system, a digital instrument cluster and an all-new squared-off steering wheel too.

• Climate control switches now feature toggle-like action, while the centre console gets gloss black panelling, a large centre armrest and controls for off-road functions.

• The rear seat occupants get adjustable headrests, a centre armrest with cupholders, dedicated AC vents and even USB Type-C fast charging ports.

Features Safety

• Compared to the older version, the new Hilux is absolutely packed with technology.

• Infotainment duties are handled via a 12.3-inch touchscreen with wireless Android Auto/Apple CarPlay and connected car technology. This is paired to a 8-speaker sound system.

• You also have a 12.3-inch digital instrument cluster which has customisable readouts.

• Other comforts and conveniences include 6-way manually adjustable front seats, wireless phone charger and manual climate control.

• The pickup truck’s safety net comprises 7 airbags, electronic stability control (ESC), front disc brakes, hill hold control (HHC), mechanical parking brake , front and rear parking sensors and a 360-degree camera.

• It has also been rated 5-stars in the ASEAN NCAP and Australian NCAP crash tests.

Powertrains

Under the hood, it borrows the 2.8-litre mild-hybrid diesel powertrain from the Fortuner. Here are the new Hilux’s specifications:

AT- Automatic Transmission (torque converter), 4WD- Four-wheel drive, RWD- Rear Wheel Drive

It also employs a ton of neat off-road features such as 10 terrain modes, hill descent control (HDC), 700 mm water wading depth.

Rivals

The Toyota Hilux has only one direct rival in India in the form of the Isuzu V-Cross. However, it can also be an alternative to body-on-frame SUVs such as the Toyota Fortuner, MG Majestor and the Isuzu MU-X.
