About the Toyota Hilux
Toyota's globally renowned, near-indestructible diesel pickup, relaunched for 2026 as a bolder lifestyle workhorse.
The Toyota Hilux is a body-on-frame lifestyle pickup, relaunched in India in July 2026 and priced from ₹31.99 lakh to ₹36.69 lakh (ex-showroom). It is powered by a 201 bhp, 500 Nm 2.8-litre turbo-diesel paired with a six-speed automatic, and comes in 4x2 and 4x4 forms. Built on the same tough ladder-frame platform as the Fortuner, it is renowned worldwide for its durability, off-road ability and load-hauling capacity.
The 2026 update brings a sharper, more muscular design, a plusher cabin with a 12.3-inch touchscreen on the top VX trim, and seven airbags as standard, while keeping the proven diesel and low-range four-wheel-drive hardware. It rivals the Isuzu V-Cross in the lifestyle-pickup niche and suits adventure enthusiasts, rural buyers and businesses that need a rugged, dependable dual-purpose truck.
The Toyota Hilux is a premium body-on-frame lifestyle pickup powered by a 2755cc BS6 Phase 2 diesel four-cylinder engine, producing 150 kW (201 bhp) and up to 500 Nm of torque on the High AT variant (420 Nm on MT variants). It offers a robust 4WD drivetrain with high (H4) and low (L4) range, Electronic Differential Lock, Downhill Assist Control (DAC), Traction Control (TRC) and Auto Limited Slip Differential — making it equally capable on construction sites and overland trails. Measuring 5.3 m long with a 3 m wheelbase and 80-litre fuel tank, the Hilux seats five and rides on a Double Wishbone front / Leaf spring rigid rear axle setup. Top variants get 18-inch Bridgestone 265/60R18 tyres, Super Chrome alloys, LED headlamps with DRLs, Piano Black trapezoidal grille with chrome surround, leather seats, power-adjustable driver seat, dual-zone automatic climate control and a 20 cm touchscreen with Android Auto / Apple CarPlay and 6 speakers. Safety is comprehensive with 7 SRS airbags, VSC with Brake Assist, HAC, ABS, ISOFIX, WIL whiplash-lessening front seats and Emergency Brake Signal across all variants. Toyota iCONNECT connected features — Emergency SOS, Auto Collision Notification, Tow Alert, remote vehicle health and Smart Watch / Siri integration — are standard on High MT and High AT.

Latest News — Hilux
Capable diesel pickup with genuine 4WD pedigree and class-leading torque
Pickup · ₹31.99–36.69 lakh · Diesel
“The Hilux is a purposeful workhorse that prioritizes off-road substance over lifestyle frills. Its 500 Nm turbo-diesel engine, low-range transfer case, and e-Diff Lock make it genuinely competent where it counts—but the absence of ADAS, drum brakes at this price, and diesel-only strategy limit its appeal for safety-conscious buyers.
How the score breaks down — weighted across 6 dimensions, scored against the segment set
✓Stands out
- 500 Nm torque from 2.8L turbo-diesel powers heavy payloads with authority
- Genuine 4WD with low-range, e-Diff Lock and ALSD—serious go-anywhere hardware
- 7 airbags standard even on base variant—unusually comprehensive for segment
- Double Wishbone front + leaf-spring rear handles 1-tonne loads without compromise
- iCONNECT suite with SOS, vehicle health monitoring on High trims
- Premium cabin touches: leather, dual-zone climate, cooled glovebox on top trims
!Gives us pause
- Rear drum brakes at this price point feel dated versus disc-braked rivals
- Zero ADAS safety tech—no adaptive cruise or collision mitigation available
- Diesel-only engine lineup; no petrol, CNG or hybrid alternatives
- Base GX misses the 12.3-inch display, Panoramic View Monitor and cruise control (VX-only)
- Significantly pricier than Isuzu V-Cross despite similar positioning
