Toyota Hilux starts reaching dealerships

The Toyota Hilux will compete with Isuzu D-Max V-Cross in the Indian market.

Toyota has started dispatching the Hilux pickup truck to dealerships across India. This image of the Hilux was captured at a dealership in Nagaland.

The Hilux shares its underpinnings with the Innova and Fortuner. In India, it will be offered in dual-cab body style. Measuring 5,285 mm in length, the Hilux is longer than both its siblings. The wheelbase has also been extended to 3,085 mm.

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