The tenth-generation Hijet was introduced in December 2004 as a van only (Cargo, and the passenger Atrai), its truck and van lines now sharing little but engines and the name. The base model is mid-engined and rear-drive, with four-wheel drive (S330-series) also available; chassis numbers changed from S320/S330 to S321/S331 with the KF engine in December 2007, and only the Cargo Hybrid kept the EF-series engine (discontinued in April 2010). A thorough facelift in November 2017 gave a prominent trapezoidal grille. Toyota has sold the van as the Pixis Van since December 2011.
