Toyota Hilux stands at dimensions of 5,325mm x 1,900mm x 1,815mm. It has a wheelbase of 3,085mm. The front fascia of the pickup is defined by the wide hexagonal chrome grille, sweptback LED headlamps with integrated LED DRLs, and a muscular bumper.

Conclusion
The Hilux serves a very small niche of buyers in India and Toyota has been trying to boost the sales of the pickup truck with discount offers and buyback schemes. Back in March, the automaker announced an assured 70% buyback scheme for the pickup truck. Currently, the Toyota Hilux rivals Isuzu D-Max V-Cross in India.
