Overview
- Leaked parts manual drawings shared by Instagram user @cars_secrets indicate an all-new Prado-inspired dashboard with twin 12.3-inch digital displays replacing the current 8-inch touchscreen and analog dials.
- Patent diagrams and spy photos show a row of Prado-style toggle switches for climate control, boxy air vents, dual gloveboxes and a floating centre-console screen.
- Exterior updates include integrated rear-bumper side steps for easier bed access and C-shaped wraparound tail lights grafted onto largely carry-over body panels.
- The 2026 HiLux is expected to remain on the proven IMV ladder-frame platform, retaining the 2.8-litre turbo-diesel engine and its 48-volt mild-hybrid system.
- Toyota has declined to officially confirm cabin or technical details, and industry reports point to a formal November unveiling with deliveries set for early 2026.
