The all-new Toyota Hilux has been finally launched in India today. Bookings for the pickup truck were already open since January this year, with the booking amount reportedly being Rs 1 lakh. The first units of the Toyota Hilux arrived at dealer showrooms and stores a couple of days ahead of its launch in March this year. The truck will be available in 3 trims in India, namely a 4×4 MT Standard, a 4×4 MT High and a 4×4 AT High.
The all-new Toyota Hilux sports a completely unique and bold design language. On its front can be seen a larger hexagonal front chrome grille, swept-back LED projector headlamps with integrated daytime running headlights, fog lights, a rugged-looking front bumper and a skid plate. It rides on 18-inch alloy wheels, similar to Fortuner in India. Being reported as one of the longest pickup vehicles in India, the new Toyota Hilux is 5325mm long, 1900mm wide, 1815mm tall, and has a wheelbase of 3085mm.
