The 2024 Toyota Hilux will get a complete makeover with mild hybrid technology. The 2024 Toyota Hilux has been revealed around the world. With this update, the eighth-generation Hilux gets its third makeover. Toyota would like to make it more appealing and technologically advanced.
Exterior
The 2024 Hilux has a lot of changes to its appearance, especially up front. With its sculpted hood and octagonal grille, the new look gives the car a more rugged look.
There are some style differences between the Australian version and the Japanese and European versions that can be seen.
Different grille and bumper finishes are examples of design differences that depend on the trim. Glossy black highlights and dark LEDs make higher-end models look better.
Adding Mild-Hybrid Technology to Improve Performance
The mild-hybrid technology added to the 2.8-liter diesel engine, which is offered in some trims, is a big step forward.
This 48-volt device has a lithium battery and an electric motor/generator. It uses less fuel and makes less noise.
Even though the power output hasn’t changed, Toyota says that the fuel economy has gone up by between 6 and 10 percent, depending on the trim.
Different trims of the 2024 Hilux get a lot more high-tech features.
Parking sensors
Automatic temperature control for two zones
Smart entry/start
Wireless charging are some of the new features.
ADAS
Pricing
The prices of the updated Hilux models have gone up a little, especially for those that come with the new mild-hybrid system.
The car will be on sale in Australia starting in March 2024, and it should be available in India by the end of the year. We expect it to be priced between Rs. 31-40 Lakhs (Ex-Showroom Price)
Market Situation: Deliveries in India Have Been Temporarily Suspended
At the moment, Toyota has suspended deliveries of the Hilux, the Innova Crysta, and the Fortuner in India because their diesel engines failed approval tests for horsepower output.
The 2024 Toyota Hilux has a lot of changes to its appearance, performance, and features. These changes are meant to keep it competitive in the global market, especially when it comes to how it compares to its main competitors. Adding mild-hybrid technology and improving the inside are two big changes that will attract people who want a vehicle that is tough, efficient, and has a lot of high-tech features.
