Toyota Hilux bookings resume in India

The Toyota Hilux is available in three variants, with prices starting at Rs. 33.99 lakh (ex-showroom).

The Toyota Hilux was launched in India back in March last year. However, bookings had to be paused, as the company was unable to meet the high demand due to supply constraints and other issues.

Toyota has announced that dealerships across India have now started taking orders for the Hilux. Bookings can also be made online.

The Toyota Hilux is available in three variants, with prices starting at Rs. 33.99 lakh (ex-showroom). Known for being virtually “indestructible”, the Hilux shares its underpinnings with the Fortuner. It comes equipped with an 8-inch touchscreen infotainment system with Android Auto and Apple CarPlay connectivity, ventilated seats with leather upholstery, 8-way power-adjustable front seats, dual-zone automatic climate control, cruise control and automatic headlamps. It also gets 7 airbags, a rear-view camera, VSC, traction control and Variable Flow Control steering.

The Hilux is offered with a 2.8-litre diesel engine producing 201 BHP (204 BHP - 6MT) and 500 Nm (420 Nm - 6MT). The engine is paired with either a 6-speed manual or a 6-speed automatic transmission. It comes with a four-wheel-drive system with an electronic differential lock, a limited-slip differential and Active Traction Control.
