The Toyota Innova Hycross is all set to make its India debut on November 25. However, it has already been revealed in Indonesia. So, in order to see what all has changed, we have compared its Indonesian-spec version to the ongoing Innova Crysta.
Dimensions
| Innova Crysta | Innova Hycross | |
| LxWxH | 4,735 x 1,830 x 1,795 mm | 4,755 x 1,850 x 1,795 mm |
| Wheelbase | 2,750 mm | 2,850 mm |
| Ground Clearance | 178 mm | 185 mm |
| Platform | IMV ladder-on-frame | TNGA monocoque |
| Seating Options | 7 / 8 | 6 / 7 / 8 |
- As the above table indicates, the wheelbase of the Innova Hycross is 100mm longer than the Innova Crysta which will make the cabin more roomier.
- Unlike the Crysta, the Hycross will also be available in a 6-seater version, featuring more premium captain seats in the second row with leg support.
- The most significant change can be seen in the form of the new TNGA monocoque platform instead of the IMV ladder-on-frame chassis, which will improve the stability and driveability of the new MPV.
