Toyota's popular MPV Innova is all set to get a major makeover after 10
years in India and global markets. Photographs of the all-new Toyota
Innova 2016 has been revealed by the company ahead of its global debut at the
2015 Jakarta Motor Show on 23rd November. The new Toyota Innova may be launched
by the end of 2016 or early 2017. It is expected to be unveiled in the country
at the 2016 Delhi Auto Expo.
The new Toyota Innova gets an all-new front face. With a
new grille with two chrome slats, redesigned bumper with larger air-dam,
sweptback projector headlamps headlamps with LED daytime running lights, the
Toyota Innova 2016 looks sportier and edgier than the outgoing model.
The interior of the new Toyota Innova is expected to get
features such as dual-tone interior and updated steering wheel. In terms of
entertainment, the car is expected to be equipped with a touchscreen head unit.
The
Innova facelift will be offered in three trim levels – G, V and Q, the new
Toyota Innova will be offered with a 2.0-litre petrol and an all-new 2.4-litre
GD diesel engine in some markets. Though the India-bound model is likely to get
only the latter one, which is good for 147bhp and 360Nm. The same engine will
also power the new-generation Toyota Fortuner. Transmission options could be a
6-speed manual and a 6-speed automatic. Toyota claims that the new diesel
engine will be about 10 per cent more fuel efficient than the current one.
The new Toyota Innova also gets an all-new IMP
(International Multi-Purpose Vehicle) platform that is lighter yet stiffer than
that of the current model.
