Toyota hasn’t revealed when the bookings will resume but they are expected to reopen after the price announcement in March. 






The Hilux lifestyle pickup is based on the Fortuner and is powered by the SUV's 204PS 2.8-litre diesel engine, which is paired with 6-speed manual and automatic transmissions. The Hilux comes standard with 4WD, which includes a low-range transfer case, electronic differential lock, and an automatic limited-slip differential. It will have a premium cabin as well as rugged capabilities.

The Hilux has automatic LED headlamps, fog lights, and tail lights, dual-zone climate control, a powered driver's seat, an 8-inch touchscreen infotainment system with Android Auto and Apple CarPlay, engine push-button start-stop, and 60:40 rear split seats .Safety features include seven airbags, vehicle stability control, hill assist control, front and rear parking sensors, and a rear view camera. 

The Hilux is expected to start at Rs 30 lakh (ex-showroom), making it a premium alternative to India's only other pickup, the Isuzu D-Max V-Cross.
