In 2017, the Toyota Coaster got a major redesign change and it has the same engine options. It was known as the 4th gen Toyota Coaster or the B60/B70/B80. It had options where the passenger seats could have 2-point seat belts or the safer 3-point seat belts. The height was increased by 60mm (2.4in), the width was increased by 40mm (1.6in), the window height was increased by 50mm (2.0in) and the door steps were lengthened by 65mm (2.6in) for easier entry and exit. However, in Kuwait, the 3-point seat belts for all of the passenger seats was not available until like 2021. The emergency exit version (not the barn doors, but the version with one door that is not a tailgate) was discontinued and delisted. And so the Toyota Coaster only has a tailgate version and a barn door version.

In 2021, Toyota Coaster buses in Kuwait got the option for 3-point seat belts for all of the passenger seats. And because of that, people riding a 2021 or later Toyota Coaster can use the 3-point seat belts and have a safe and enjoyable ride and lower the chances of passenger injuries.
