New Toyota Innova to arrive in India by 2012

 Toyota Motor Corp, the world’s largest auto maker is back into the news after Toyota Etios Liva hatchback launch last month.

This time it is due to Toyota Innova makeover. The test mules of the face lifted Toyota Innova MPV were reportedly seen in Indonesia for some time now. The retouched Toyota Innova MPV, which was skeptical of hitting the Indian roads earlier, is however going to be launched towards the mid of 2012. The new Toyota Innova Price is likely to be Rs 8.1 lakh and around Rs 12.4 lakh for its top-variant.

 The new Toyota Innova will continue to have the same engine specifications with 2.5 litre D-4D diesel engine and 2 litre VVT –i petrol engine in Indian markets. The retouched Toyota Innova will be available in the international markets with automatic transmission, which is not for the Indian market, considering the excess cost involved. Toyota India is hoping not to add the automatic gearbox for the Indian variant of new Toyota Innova.



The exterior look of the Toyota Innova has undergone a major facelift as far as the recent pictures show. The front bumpers and the headlamps are changed to give the face lifted model to provide with more of an MUV look rather than the car appearance. The front grille is going to appear with a chrome finish, which the Toyota India wishes to retain as Indians prefer it that way.



The interiors of the retouched version of Toyota Innova doesn’t seem to have changed much except for the fabric used inside has been changed for good and the center ensemble also adorns a new look. The dashboard look, however remains the same. The face lifted Toyota Innova has been unveiled at the Indonesia International Motor Show.
In India Toyota Innova and Mahindra Xylo are competing against each other, with Toyota Innova’s bland look and Mahindra Xylo masculine bold look; it depends on the person’s individual choice as to which look they prefer. Notably, Mahindra is coming up with Mahindra Xylo Mini which will be an excellent option for those who want an MPV like Xylo but want to pay less. Mahindra Xylo Mini price is expected to be around Rs 6 lakh. However, there had been a slight change in the scenario recently with Tata Aria entering the auto market in 2010. Now, we have to sit back and see, with the retouched model of Toyota Innova entering the Indian market, as which of these MPV’s in India be able to woo customers the greatest.

Many automakers across the world are into small, low-budget car production keeping Indian car market in mind.

They are of the opinion that if they succeed in the Indian car market, they stand a good chance of flourishing in other fast emerging auto markets throughout the world like the Brazilian auto market for example. We all are well aware that Tata Nano has been a major success, marketed as the world’s cheapest car and has been designed particularly for the Indian low income group. Today, many car makers are working in the same direction to attract the customers. Hyundai India draws the attention of our auto market, having come up with its new Hyundai H800 which is expected to be launched in November this year. Customers are eagerly waiting for this launch to happen and have their fingers crossed.

 The Hyundai H800 hatchback is believed to be a modest version of Hyundai Santro Xing. The exterior look and the interior appearance is said to be borrowed from its sibling Hyundai Santro Xing. However as per the leaked images of Hyundai H800 in the internet, the new hatchback resembles more like Hyundai i10 with an enlarged honeycomb mesh in the front. Though the external appearance may take after Hyundai i10, the interiors are different to cut down the costs. The head room space and the leg space are thought to have been reduced, while the wheel base appears to be similar to that of any other Hyundai small cars.The wonder car Tata Nano however fulfilled long-time dream of cutomers willing to buy a car when the car was launched in 2009, now the customers have a high expectation from Hyundai H800 with the Hyundai India track record.Hyundai H800 is going to put up a great fight against Tata Nano and Maruti Alto and why not when Maruti Alto is in great demand with its low price range between Rs 2.32 lakhs to Rs 3.30 lakhs with a good on-the-road performance. A close source has revealed that price of Hyundai H800 is expected to be under Rs 3 lakhs. We do not have the official specifications of this hatchback yet. But, is Hyundai H800 is going to be as popular as Tata Nano or Maruti’s Alto is what we have to wait and watch.
