Toyota Australia is looking to make the HiLux a little sexier with a new range of accessory packs aimed at giving the top-selling ute a more aggressive stance and enhanced off-road ability.
These additions were designed in Australia, and all three variants are permanent additions to the HiLux line-up.
Available in three configurations; HiLux Rugged X (pictured above), Rugged and Rogue, all the additions are covered by Toyota’s factory warranty, and all three models will be available through Toyota dealerships nationwide from next week.
