The Japanese manufacturer seems to be taking a dig at the Touring Sport once again as it will be receiving mild hybrid technology by next month.
The Z AT variants will feature LED foglamps instead of normal units while the six-speed automatic trims will get the idle start and stop technology. In the manual VX trim, the Touring Sport will be offered with a six-speed gearbox as opposed to current five-speed unit. It will also gain idle start and stop with Vehicle Stability Control, Traction Control, Hill Assistance Control and Intelligent Manual Transmission. Moreover, another additional feature is the audio being replaced by navigation.

The manual and automatic Z variants along with VX MT will witness the addition of LED fog lamps. However, unlike the Touring Sport, the idle start and stop technology won’t be made available in the Innova Crysta. The VX MT will also opt for navigation in place of the normal audio.

The GX AT and MT gain a slew of new features like driver seat height adjustment, door ajar warning with each door display, rear cup holder and rear armrest in the eight seater version. The entry-level manual G trims will come fitted with rear seat air conditioning system.

So something is cooking behind !
Mild hybrid soon to be accepted as a proper hybrid technology by Govt?
Does it means Govt have agreed to relook into hybrid tax structure?

I guess the redefined GST tax slabs may give exemption for Genuine proper Hybrids & Gimmick Mild hybrids ! If that happens Toyota & maruti could laugh all the way to the bank again!
Proposed GST increase is from 15% to 25% for larger cars , escaping it through these easy tricks shows the level of lobbying !

Interesting !
