2022 Toyota Glanza – Variants
Unlike the pre-facelift model which was available in two variants (G and V), the facelifted model will be offered in four variants: E, G, S, and V.
2022 Toyota Glanza – Colour Options
Toyota will present the new Glanza in five exterior paint schemes: Cafe White, Enticing Silver, Gaming Grey, Sportin Red, and Insta Blue. Compared to the recently launched Maruti Baleno facelift, it will miss out on the Beige hue.
Design and Features
As revealed earlier, the new Glanza will get an extensively updated design, especially inside the cabin. It will get an all-new layered dashboard layout, wrapped in a premium black-&-beige scheme. Changes on the outside will include a new single chrome strip grille (somewhat similar to the now-discontinued Corolla Altis), a sportier front bumper with a blacked-out honeycomb mesh pattern air dam, chrome surrounds for the fog lamp housings, a new lighting system, and redesigned alloy wheels.
Features onboard will include auto LED headlamps and wipers, a 9-inch floating touchscreen infotainment system with Apple Carplay and Android Auto, connected car tech with remote control functionality, voice assistant, a heads-up display, auto-dimming IRVM, auto AC, rear AC vents, up to 6-airbags, ESP with hill hold assist, 360-degree camera, engine idle start/stop function, and much more.
Powertrain
Similar to its donor model, the new Maruti Baleno, the 2022 Glanza will also be powered by a 1.2-liter, 4-cylinder, DualJet DualVVT petrol engine that makes out 90PS and 113Nm, and comes mated to either a 5-speed manual or Automated Manual Transmission (AMT).
Expected Price and Rivals
Unofficial bookings for the new Glanza are already underway at select dealerships. Expect Toyota to price the updated hatchback from around Rs 7.20 lakh (ex-showroom), pitting it against the Hyundai i20, Honda Jazz, Tata Altroz, Maruti Suzuki Baleno, and soon-to-be-discontinued Volkswagen Polo.
