2009 Toyota Hi-Lux Receives Subtle Facelift

2009 Toyota Hi-Lux Receives Subtle Facelift




Toyota’s official Malayisian website has gone ahead and revealed the first image of the mildly facelifted 2009 Hi-Lux pick-up truck. Unless you own a Hi-Lux, you will probably have a hard time spotting the differences between the 2008 and 2009 model. Minor changes on the outside include a heavier profiled front bumper, a new grille, restyled wing mirrors with integrated indicators and new alloy wheels. Toyota Europe has yet to make an announcement but expect the revised Hi-Lux to hit European showroom floors towards the end of 2008 or early 2009.
