Hilux, Fortuner trim tweaked for 2014

Published Oct 31, 2013

With all the hype around the concepts - in particular the exotic FT-86 Open and upcoming new models such as the 2014 Corolla - visitors to the Toyota stand at the Johannesburg International Motor Show could be forgiven for missing two model upgrades that were quietly slipped in under the radar.

Prospection's homegrown siblings - the Hilux and Fortuner - have come in for a spot of surgery. Most of the changes take place indoors with each getting a new, black fascia moulding, as opposed to the outgoing grey palette.To complement the new trim colour, the Fortuner's upholstery is now black leather for three-litre and four-litre models, while the 2.5-litre variants get matching lack fabric.

A new multimedia system with a larger display monitor is now standard on three-litre diesel and four-litre V6 double-cab Hilux bakkies, as well as the three-litre and four-litre Fortuner variants.

The new system has a built-in photo viewer, video/DVD playback - but only when it's standing still! - full-colour album art display and expanded interface categories for music downloads.

The Fortuner 2.5-litre D-4D has also had an audio upgrade, with a bigger display and (for the first time in this model) Bluetooth connectivity, while three-litre and four-litre Hilux Double Cabs now have the same rear parking-sensor system as their Fortuner equivalents.
