Whenever there is talk of a comfortable car for the entire family in the Indian automobile market, Toyota’s name comes at the top. In recent times, Toyota Innova Hycross has carved a niche for itself in the family-oriented MPV segment. Due to its excellent cabin space, modern features and especially the hybrid engine, this vehicle remains in the news for both long journeys and daily use. The company claims that it comes with excellent mileage, which makes it unique in its category.
Powerful engine and great mileage
The biggest feature of Toyota Innova Hycross is its fuel-efficient engine. This vehicle comes in two options – a normal petrol engine and a strong-hybrid engine. According to the company and ARAI data, its hybrid variant gets a mileage of up to 23.24 kmpl. That’s pretty impressive for a large MPV. At the same time, its normal petrol variant is also capable of giving a mileage of around 16 kmpl. The benefits of the hybrid system are clearly visible in city traffic.

SUV like look and design
The design of the Innova Hycross is a far cry from the traditional van-like MPV image of yesteryear. It looks like a powerful SUV. Its high stance, large grille at the front and sharp lines on the body give it a premium and modern look. It is being liked very much by those customers who want a family car which has no shortage of space but also has strong road presence.
Space and comfort for family
The biggest requirement of any MPV is space and comfort. The Innova Hycross has been designed keeping this in mind. This car is available in 7 and 8 seater options. Its top variants have ‘captain seats’ in the middle row, which prevents fatigue in long distance journeys. The cabin is quite spacious, giving ample space even to passengers sitting in the third row. Besides, it also has good space for storing luggage.
Modern features and safety
Nowadays customers pay a lot of attention to features along with mileage. Many modern features have been provided in Innova Hycross. This includes a large touchscreen infotainment system, panoramic sunroof and connected car features. In terms of safety, it has features like ADAS (Advanced Driver Assistance System), which helps the driver stay safe on the road. However, safety features may be more or less depending on the variant, so it is important to check the complete list before purchasing.
Price and for whom is it best?
Talking about the price, the ex-showroom price of Toyota Innova Hycross starts from around Rs 19.15 lakh and goes up to Rs 32.38 lakh for the top model. This car is perfect for families who frequently take long trips and need comfortable seating for 6-7 people. If you have a lot of running around, its hybrid model can prove to be very helpful in saving petrol.
