The Hilux measures 5,325mm in length, 1,900mm in width, 1,815mm in height and has a 3,085mm wheelbase. That means this pick-up truck could be the longest vehicle in the country in terms of length. Meanwhile, it has an enormous 310mm ground clearance and a 700mm wading depth capacity.
Moving on to the exterior, the Hilux features a large hexagonal grille at the front that adjoins the LED projector headlamps and daytime running lights. In addition, the four-door truck gets plastic cladding around the wheel arches, footboards, LED taillights and a big rear bumper. For the India-spec model, Toyota may offer 17 or 18-inch wheels.
