The Hilux shares its underpinnings with the Innova and Fortuner.

The Toyota Hilux has been spotted during an ad shoot in Gurgaon. The pickup truck is expected to be launched in January 2022.

The Hilux seen in these images is the double-cab variant. It appears to be equipped with quite a few accessories, including sunshades and a roll bar.

The Hilux shares its underpinnings with the Innova and Fortuner. Measuring 5,285 mm in length, the Hilux is longer than both models. The wheelbase has also been extended to 3,085 mm.

Reports suggest that the India-spec Hilux could get two diesel engine options. These include a 2.4-litre unit from the Innova, while higher variants could get the 2.8-litre motor from the Fortuner.

The Hilux shares its underpinnings with the Innova and Fortuner. It will compete with the Isuzu D-Max V-Cross in India

In August 2020, there was a report that Toyota was looking to introduce the Hilux pickup truck in India. Now, according to a media report, the Japanese carmaker is expected to launch the Hilux in the country in the coming months.

The Hilux shares its underpinnings with the Innova and Fortuner. It measures 5,285 mm in length and has a wheelbase measuring 3,085 mm. Both these figures are more than the MPV and SUV.

To keep costs down, Toyota is expected to use parts from the Innova and Fortuner on the Hilux. The pickup is also expected to use the same 2.4L and 2.8L diesel engines and transmission units from its siblings. While the front suspension is likely to be the same as well, the rear suspension will use a leaf spring setup instead of coil springs as the former is more suited to handling loads.

The Hilux will compete with the Isuzu D-Max V-Cross when it comes to our shores. Since it is expected to share parts with the Innova and Fortuner, Toyota should be able to keep its pricing competent.

This version of the Hilux is available in Australia and is called the Workmate.

A Toyota Hilux single-cab pickup truck has been spotted in Delhi.

The Hilux shares its underpinnings with the Innova and Fortuner. This single-cab version looks more utilitarian than the double-cab variant. It is equipped with a flat-bed and is riding on steel wheels.

This version of the Hilux is available in Australia and is called the Workmate. It is offered with one petrol and two diesel engine options. These include a 2.7-litre petrol producing 164 BHP / 245 Nm, a 2.4-litre turbo-diesel rated at 145 BHP / 400 Nm and a 2.8-litre turbo-diesel with a peak output of 201 BHP / 500 Nm. Transmission options include a 5-speed manual, 6-speed manual and 6-speed automatic. Four-wheel-drive is optional on some of the variants.

Reports suggest that Toyota is evaluating the Hilux for the Indian market. It could compete with the Isuzu D-Max.

The 2021 Fortuner & Hilux shine in ASEAN NCAP crash tests.

The 2021 Toyota Fortuner has been awarded a 5-star safety rating by ASEAN NCAP.

The Fortuner scored 32.92 points for adult occupant protection, 43.38 points for child occupant protection and 10.95 points for Safety Assist Tests.

In the frontal impact test, the vehicle provided good protection to both adult occupants, but the driver's lower legs showed risk of injury. The test also revealed that the vehicle provided good protection to the occupants in an event of a side impact. The Fortuner offered better head protection compared to the Hilux.

ASEAN NCAP used a Thailand-spec Toyota Hilux for the crash tests. The Hilux is a pick-up truck that shares its underpinnings with the Fortuner. The test vehicle was powered by a 2.8-litre diesel engine and was equipped with 3 airbags.

According to a media report, Toyota is looking to introduce the Hilux pickup truck in India. At present, the company is evaluating the vehicle for our market.

The Hilux shares its underpinnings with the Innova and Fortuner. It measures 5,285 mm in length and has a wheelbase measuring 3,085 mm. Both these figures are more than the MPV and SUV. It comes with a 1.5 m x 1.5 m loading bay at the rear.

The Hilux also uses the same engines, transmissions and suspension components as the Innova and Fortuner. However, at the rear, it uses a leaf spring setup instead of coil springs as the former is more suited to handling loads. Toyota is reportedly considering the 2.4L and 2.8L diesel engines for the pickup and the latter could produce up to 500 Nm.

Toyota will look to assemble the Hilux locally. Since it shares many components with the Innova and Fortuner, the company should be able to price it lower than a CBU would cost. The pickup is expected to be priced between Rs. 15 lakh – Rs. 20 lakh in India. 

The Hilux will compete with the Isuzu D-Max V-Cross if it comes to our shores.

Toyota also claims to have reworked the suspension on the Hilux. It gets revised shock absorber tuning with new bushings and a new leaf spring design

Leaked images of the updated Toyota Hilux have surfaced online.

According to the images, the Hilux is likely to get a substantial redesign. The front end features a large hexagonal grille that has a chrome frame. The sweptback headlamps are believed to house bi-beam LED lights and LED daytime running lights. Lower variants are likely to get regular halogen lights with an integrated LED position lamp.

At the rear, the Hilux features wraparound LED tail lights and a dual-tone rear bumper. The high-mounted stop lamp is positioned on the tail gate just above the chrome handle. The images also suggest that the Hilux could be offered with 18-inch aluminium wheels, while the lower-spec model could get 17-inch aluminium wheels. The lower variants also miss out on the chrome grille.

One of the leaked images reveals the colour options that could be offered in the updated Hilux. The colour palette is divided into three categories. There are four 'Basic Colours' - Super White, Silver, Gray and Attitude Black. 'Regional Colours' include Oxide Bronze, Dk. Blue, Crimson Spark Red, Orange and Nebula Blue. The two 'Premium Colours' are Emotional Red and White Pearl.

Toyota premiered the eighth generation of the Hilux Revo pick-up truck in Bangkok, Thailand. It has been launched in multiple variants including a Single Cab, Smart Cab and Double Cab, with a wide choice of engines and transmissions. The price range for this truck in Thailand is from 5.69 lakh Baht to 11.39 lakh Baht (i.e. Rs. 10.84 lakhs to Rs. 21.70 lakhs).

Exteriors of this pick-up truck feature new projector headlamps with LED DRLs, a 4-slat chrome front grill, new bumpers, new chrome ORVMs with integrated turn indicators and new 17" alloy wheels to name a few.

The equipment list in this pick up truck includes a re-designed dashboard with a 7" infotainment system, automatic climate control, engine start/stop button with keyless entry, cruise control, new instrument cluster and multifunction display and a new multifunction steering wheel.

The Hilux Revo is powered by a range of completely new diesel engines from the GD family, comprising of a 2.8 litre diesel motor that produces 177 BHP and 420 Nm of max torque between 1,400 and 2,600 RPM. A 6-speed manual gearbox will transmit the power to the wheels. A 6-speed automatic gearbox is also available with the same engine which produces the same power figure but 450 Nm of max torque between 1,600 and 2,400 RPM. A 2.4 litre diesel engine is also on offer which produces 150 BHP and 400 Nm of max torque. This unit too will be available with a 6-speed manual and automatic gearbox. A 5-speed gearbox will be available too with the 2.4 unit; while the power figure remains the same, the torque figure stands at 343 Nm.

Safety features in the new Hilux Revo are ABS + EBD, Brake Assist, Vehicle Stability Control, Traction Control, Hill-start Assist, Downhill Assist Control and 7 airbags (including a driver knee airbag).

This new pick-up truck is a good indicator for those who are eagerly waiting for the arrival of the next-generation Fortuner and Innova in India. Toyota is likely to reveal the new Fortuner on July 28, 2015.

The next-generation Toyota Hilux pick-up truck has been spotted completely undisguised in Thailand. The spy images give us an idea of how the upcoming Fortuner will look, since it is based on the Hilux.

The Hilux gets swept back projector headlamps with LED daytime running lights and chrome inserts, a chrome grille with two slats that merge with the headlamps, a redesigned front bumper with round fog lamps with chrome bezels and an air dam with horizontal black slats. The vehicle also gets 6-spoke alloy wheels and ORVMs with integrated turn indicators.

The interiors of the Hilux are black with brushed aluminium and chrome inserts. The dashboard is redesigned and there is a new multifunction steering wheel. The vehicle is also equipped with a large screen for the infotainment system, keyless entry and go and an automatic gearbox.

To power the Hilux, Toyota will use engines from the new GD family of engines that it introduced earlier this month. Both manual and automatic transmissions are expected to be offered.

In India, the Fortuner is likely to use a 2.8-litre, diesel power plant with a variable geometry turbo, developing 177 BHP and 450 Nm of torque. The SUV is expected to be shown at the 2016 Auto Expo. It will compete with the Ford Endeavour and Mitsubishi Pajero Sport.
