And the latest teaser unveils the hatchback’s interior, which now gets a premium-looking black-&-beige shade instead of facelifted Baleno’s black-&-blue color scheme. Also, the silver ornament running across the width of the dash has been replaced with a piano black trim.
Compared to the pre-facelift model, the 2022 Glazna will also receive a host of new features such as a flat-bottom steering wheel, slightly updated instrument cluster with colored MID, a 9-inch touchscreen infotainment system with connected car tech and Alexa support, Arkamys-tuned sound system, a head-up display (HUD), upgraded auto climate control panel with rear AC vents, 360-degree camera, auto-dimming IRVM, up to 6 airbags, electronic stability program, and hill-hold assist.

Other bits like cruise control, auto AC, steering mounted controls, auto LED headlamps, etc will be retained from the ongoing model.
Powering the new Glanza will be the 1.2-liter DualJet DualVVT petrol engine (90PS/113Nm) that now comes with an idle engine start/stop function (sans the mild-hybrid tech). Transmission options will include a 5-speed manual and an optional 5-speed AMT instead of the more sophisticated CVT automatic.
Toyota is likely to offer the upgraded Glanza in four trims {E (new), G, S (new), and V} and five colour options. With this, expect the carmaker to price it from around Rs 7 lakh (ex-showroom), placing it against the Maruti Suzuki Baleno, Tata Altroz, Hyundai i20, Honda Jazz, and soon-to-be-discontinued Volkswagen Polo.
