Next Generation Toyota Innova or is it just a major facelift?

        In our earlier post we had posted about the next generation Toyota Innova being tested on Bangalore roads amid heavy camouflage. Carefully observing the spy pictures one might get doubt whether it is indeed the old Innova with heavy facelift in the front, rear and rear side profile. We too felt that the vehicle seen from the spy pictures is the same old Innova with heavy cosmetic changes. Note the similar dimension of the vehicle.

        If our guess is true, then we think Toyota is not aggressive in growing Indian market. Normally Toyota vehicle life cycle is 8 years and it’s the 9th year running for the Innova in India since its launch in 2005. If they are not planning to bring an all new replacement vehicle now, then when will they do? Probably the labour unrest at the Toyota factory in the outskirts of Bangalore might have changed the plans of Toyota for India, at least it might have affected the near future plans of the company.

        When the Qualis was stopped, Toyota received huge request for restarting the vehicle but the company ruled out to bring Qualis back saying it had completed its product life cycle. Since then Toyota has been seen as a renowned car manufacturer and customers thought of buying a Toyota with closed eyes. But Etios spoiled the party. Probably the company got carried away or country advisers mislead the parent company at Japan. Having burnt the finger once, it’s hard to understand why Toyota is still playing a safe game by giving a makeover to an old vehicle.


        Having said all these we wish our guess does not come true. Let’s wish to see an all new next generation Toyota Innova to carry on with the legacy of its predecessor.

2015 Next Generation Toyota Innova spied in India

        Till now we have been just speculating the launch of next generation Toyota Innova in India in 2014 or 2015 or 2016. Not it is evident that the all new Innova will be launched soon India, probably next year as a test mule of the new Innova has been spied in Bangalore.

        A Team-Bhpian managed to click some spy pics of the new Innova in Bangalore and according to him, the new Innova was being tested along with the current Innova with some passengers in both the vehicles, some of them Japanese.


        As seen from the picture, the all new Innova looks bigger and features redesigned front and rear ends. However thee side profile looks similar to the current one except the rear side glass which now seems to be of an inverted triangle shape. Carefully looking, the front end could resemble Toyota Highlander and the rear tail lamps could be inspired from the latest Yaris hatchback.

        The spy pictures have surfaced just couple of days earlier to the launc h of Honda Mobilio, which is a serious competitor to Innova. With the price of around Rs. 10 lakh, Mobilio will be ‘the vehicle of choice’ as oflate Innova prices hav reached nearer to Rs. 20 lakh. In fact a top end fully loaded Innova cost you Rs. 22 lakh on road Bangalore.

        Apart from design changes, the new Innova might come with latest interior design with high technology drive information interface system. The new Innova might as well get new engine with different power outputs.

        Further details are bleak. We try to get the latest information about the new Innova and reach you as soon as possible. Till then keep tuned to AutomboilePlanet.com.

Chevrolet Sail facelift on the cards

        Chevrolet Sail facelift has been revealed in China with an new look resembling the BMW 1 series. The redesigned headlamps, bumper and the new dual port grill give a premium look to the car. The rear also features some changes in the form of new tail-lamps, inspired from Hyundai Verna and number plate slot on the tail gate.

        The bland design of current Sail looks aging and the new entrants like Hyundai Xcent and Honda Amaze feels far more superior in terms of design. Chevrolet might give a much desired facelift to the Sail in India as well to keep the car in the competition.
