Interior
Inside, the overall design of the Innova Crysta facelift’s interior is similar to the current model. As the Innova Crysta (Kijang Innova) is available in two variants in Indonesia: Venture & Luxury, both trims feature a different color scheme. The Luxury trim gets a brown color theme while the Venturer gets an all-black cabin with a black dashboard along with a darker wood panel and contrast red stitching on the leatherette seats.
It also gets an updated instrument cluster design, an in-built air purifier with an air quality indicator, and a new 9-inch Miracast touchscreen infotainment system with Apple Carplay and Android Auto.
Apart from the above-mentioned features, it continues to get automatic climate control, rear AC vents, steering-mounted audio controls, cruise control, keyless entry with an engine start/stop button. The safety kit includes 7 airbags, ABS with EBD, electronic stability control, hill start assist, and a rearview camera.
Engine & Gearbox
Under the hood, the Indonesia-spec Innova gets the same 2.0-liter petrol and 2.4-liter diesel engine options. The India-spec version is likely to house the ongoing engine options – 2.7-liter petrol and 2.4-liter diesel engines.
