Bollywood Actor Jackie Shroff Buys Custom-Built Toyota Hilux [Video]
The veteran Bollywood actor Jackie Shroff, whom we all also know as “Jaggu Dada,” is one of the most unique personalities in B-Town. This uniqueness is also reflected in his car collection. Most recently, Jackie Shroff added a new vehicle to his collection. This time around, he has opted for a fully customised Toyota Hilux off-roading pickup truck, and recently, the delivery video of this vehicle has been shared online.
The video showing the shop owner who modified Jackie Shroff’s Toyota Hilux delivering this Hilux has been shared on Instagram. It comes courtesy of Poona Motors Official on their page. In this short clip, the owner of the shop mentions that they are going to deliver this particular Hilux to Jackie Shroff sir. Following this, he can be seen arriving at his residence.
After Jackie Shroff arrived at the main gate, the owner of the shop handed him a small pot with a plant in it, following which he touched his feet, but Jackie hugged him instead. The owner of the shop then started showing the veteran actor his new SUV. Finally, Shroff sat in the front passenger seat and was talking to the owner of the car.
From the video, it can be noted that Jackie Shroff has opted for his Hilux finished in the rugged shade of metallic grey. It can be seen from the slight glimpses in the video that the shop has given the veteran actor’s Hilux a set of brand-new aftermarket alloy wheels. It has also been given aftermarket LED lights at the front, and the rear also seems to be modified.
The Toyota Hilux is one of the most capable lifestyle off-road pickup trucks in India. It starts at Rs 28.02 lakh and goes all the way up to Rs 35.85 lakh for the Black Edition model. This pickup truck shares the same powerplant as its popular sibling, the Toyota Fortuner.
It comes equipped with the time-tested 2.8-litre, four-cylinder, turbocharged motor. This engine is capable of producing 201 bhp of maximum power and 500 Nm of torque (the manual gearbox variant makes 420 Nm). It is offered with both a 6-speed manual gearbox and a 6-speed torque converter automatic.
As for the off-roading equipment of the Hilux, it comes with a 4X4 system with an electronic rear locking differential, hill descent control, hill assist, and others. It also gets ABS, EBD, and a traction control system. At the moment, the only true rival of the Toyota Hilux in India is the Isuzu V-Cross.
In addition to the newly bought Toyota Hilux, Jackie Shroff also owns a Fiat 1100 sedan. This particular vehicle is finished in a classy shade of silver and most likely has been restored by him to preserve it for the coming years. Jackie Shroff's Fiat 1100 also gets white-walled tyres, which add to the vintage appearance of the vehicle.
He also owns a Jaguar XKR sports coupe. The car is finished in the British Racing Green shade with golden-colored alloy wheels. It is powered by a 5.0-litre supercharged V8 petrol engine that generates 510 PS and 625 Nm of peak torque.
Another luxury vehicle in his garage is his Bentley Continental GT. This sports cruiser comes powered by a 4.0-litre V8 engine that produces a maximum power of 500 bhp and 660 Nm.
