Scoop! Toyota Hilux single-cab spotted in Delhi

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.
