Revised styling, added performance

Toyota has officially unveiled the 2012 Hilux facelift.

Featuring a refined appearance, the model adopts a whole new front fascia, a revised grille and restyled headlights. Interior changes are limited, but include a new instrument cluster, revised trim and an updated 6.1-inch touchscreen display.

The.0 D-4D carries over – with a brand new diesel particulate filter – even so the big news is an upgraded 2.5-liter D-4D with 144 PS (106 kW / 142 PS) and 343 Nm (253 lb-ft) of torque. Despite boasting one more 24 PS (18 kW / 24 hp), the engine includes a reduced fuel usage of 7.3 L/100 km and CO2 emissions of 193 g/km.
