This All New Hilux Full Change Model Revo will be a major change model and is expected May of 2015. On the left is a view of Toyota factory where Toyota Hilux Revo is ready to be shipped. This Full Change is expected to be a full size model. The Next Generation 2016 Toyota Hilux Vigo looks very curvaceous and a new re-think of Hilux traditional look. The grill in front will be two slimmer horizontal bars going all the way to the headlights, the rear curves inward much like Triton.
Rear bumper is much nicer looking and side step is more discreet. Bonnet has a more advanced lift. Both its cabin and bed are bigger in length and width making ait an almost full size pickup truck. Not only will it be more spacious in the front you can now carry more load in the back. Luxuriousness and comfort of the cabin will also increase. It will have higher horsepower and torque. Hybrid version cannot be that far away.
The reshaped side window line incorporates a kicked-back C-pillar and the A-pillars also appear to flow into the bonnet line more smoothly. There is a new-look front end with redesigned headlights with LED daytime running lights DRLs, a bold Toyota-signature lower air intake and a slightly different rear-end with re-profiled bumpers.
On the left is the picture of new pickup's dashboard. Large touchscreen on the center console makes it look like a car's console than an average pickup truck. Digital meter and steering are also good looking.

Now 8th Generation Major Change Hilux is expected to be released in late 2014 or early 2015 as 2015 Major Change Model. Toyota Hilux Vigo remains world's best selling pickup truck so Toyota can chose to play it safe in 2014 and only released a minor change model. 2015 Next Model will by all accounts be a major change new model which will completely overhaul Toyota Hilux's interiors and exteriors and will give it a fresh new look. It will be a cross between Toyota Highlander and Volkswagen Amarok. Some features will also remind one of Toyota Kluger. side window line incorporates a kicked-back C-pillar and the A-pillars also appear to flow into the bonnet line more smoothly. There are more significant differences to surface design, including a new-look front end with redesigned headlights, a bold Toyota-signature lower air intake and a slightly different rear-end with re-profiled bumpers.
Toyota has seen all the recent changes made in 2015 Ford Ranger especially in Wildtrak model and 2015 Mazda BT-50 All New BT-50, 2015 Nissan Navara NP-300 and 2015 Isuzu Dmax.
