2017 Toyota Hilux Exterior ►
For the 2017 model, the automaker has tweaked the exterior profile to make it even more aggressive but still very attractive. The body will be made from lightweight materials meaning it will have a light curb weight. The front fascia still retains the brand’s signature 3-slot grille but has been slightly altered to make it more aggressive. The grille is flanked by a sleek looking pair headlights also wisely placed to enhance its aggressiveness. The front bumper is larger to help the vehicle in off-road terrain. The bumper is integrated with more air inlets to cool its engine. At the back, the vehicle features stylish looking taillights which are mounted vertically to improve their performance. The rear bumper is large and leaves small portions of the redesigned exhaust tips below it visible. The vehicle will ride on 16, 17 or 18-inch aluminum wheels depending on the trim level. The wheels will be wrapped in performance tires.
