Toyota has released a teaser for the ninth-generation Hilux, which will make its official debut in Thailand on November 10 this year. In Thailand, the current Hilux has the ‘Revo’ suffix in its name, but the all-new one is set to adopt ‘Travo’ instead. In the short video, we get to see parts of the pick-up truck’s redesigned front end, which features sleeker headlamps that have LED projectors and J-shaped daytime running lights. Meanwhile, ‘Toyota’ is spelled out between the lighting units (and appears to get a clear cover), accompanied by a sculpted bonnet that has a recessed centre section. As for the rear, the taillights that previously had a signature in the shape of the number three now get a C-shaped design instead. The tailgate also gets the Toyota script on it, while the grab handle is positioned together with the model’s name and third brake light. A new wheel with a seven-sided star design is also shown to us. The Hilux Travo is expected to use an updated version of the IMV platform, which has been around since the seventh-generation model. Judging by the silhouette, the cab section of the outgoing Hilux Revo will be retained as well. Prior leaks and patents uncovered indicate the Hilux Travo’s interior will sport a more angular dashboard that is designed to be more utilitarian and rugged. Digital displays and practical storage space are also hinted. In terms of powertrains, the familiar 2.4 and 2.8 litre turbodiesel engines are expected to be carried over, along with manual and automatic transmissions as well as rear- and part-time four-wheel drive. Electrified solutions like a 48-volt mild hybrid system or even a fully electric option might also be in the cards for Thailand.
