Following the release of the Dakar Limited Edition \u2013 which introduced a bold new \u2018square\u2019 face for the Hilux \u2013 Toyota has announced further tweaks to its popular bakkie range as well as a number of additional models catering to both utility and convenience-minded customers.<\/p>\n

This will include a number of changes to its mid-tier Hilux SRX models as well its range-topping Raider models, Toyota said.<\/p>\n

“The new SRX model adopts a black-themed front design to reinforce the tough, no-nonsense appearance of these mid-tier models. Colour-coded bumpers remain while inheriting a matching stylised skid plate on the lower apron. Functional black side steps and side mirrors add a rugged touch,” it said.<\/p>\n

The new model will now also feature auto light control incorporating a follow-me-home functionality, and all SRX models will inherit a 4-speaker touchscreen infotainment system (previously utilised on Raider grade) with Bluetooth and USB interface.<\/p>\n

Toyota added that its range-topping Raider models will receive a chrome grille surround which offsets the black horizontal slats and ‘creates a premium appearance’.<\/p>\n

Its touchscreen multimedia system has also been upgraded to include satellite navigation and DVD-playback compatibility.<\/p>\n

As a carry-over from the Dakar limited edition, the Raider will also feature a new full black interior, complete with black headliner and metallic-black interior trim accents.<\/p>\n
