Toyota Innova Hycross GX Limited Edition priced at Rs 20.07 lakh

Toyota has silently introduced a new limited-edition variant of the Innova Hycross based on the petrol GX variant. Priced between Rs 20.07 lakh to 20.22 lakh (ex-showroom), the Innova Hycross GX Limited Edition costs Rs 40,000 more than standard GX, and gets a few exterior and interior cosmetic enhancements.

Toyota Innova Hycross GX Limited Edition: what’s new?
The exterior updates are actually quite minimal – there’s a new chrome garnish on the grille that runs through the centre and the front and rear bumpers get new faux silver skid plates. One will have to pay an additional Rs 9,500 for the Platinum White exterior paint shade. Being based on the lower-tier GX trim, however, it misses out on the bumper garnishes and larger alloy wheels available on the higher trims.

The updates are more substantial on the inside – it gets a new soft-touch, chestnut brown finish (standard on the more expensive VX trim) for the dashboard and door trims which are finished in black plastic in the regular GX trim. There’s also a new faux wood trim around the window controls, while the fabric seat covers get a new dual-tone black and brown finish. The GX limited Edition variant is available in both 7-seater and 8-seater configurations.

Like the trim it's based on, the GX Limited Edition is only available with the 2.0-litre, naturally aspirated petrol engine and does not get the more fuel-efficient hybrid powertrain. It's mated to a CVT gearbox and produces 172hp and 205Nm of torque.

With the Hycross GX Limited Edition, Toyota is aiming to make the less popular non-hybrid variant more appealing to buyers who are looking to buy the MPV during this period. Sources tell us that the Innova Hycross GX Limited Edition will be available only till December or while stocks last.

Toyota Innova HyCross: Bookings reopened for top variants, prices hiked

Following supply-related challenges that emerged last year, Toyota Kirloskar Motor temporarily suspended bookings for its top-spec Innova Hycross ZX and ZX (O) variants in India. Now, bookings for the Toyota Innova Hycross ZX and ZX (O) have reopened after almost a year-long pause, and prices have also been hiked.

Last year, the waiting period for the fully-loaded Hycross MPV had extended to as long as 2.5 years due to production limitations, although production of the variant itself did not cease. Now the waiting period has also been reduced to 1 year for the hybrid variants and about 5 to 6 months for the petrol-only variants. Offering a choice of five trims and 12 variants, the Hycross MPV is available in both seven- and eight-seat configurations. Although certain variants feature the seven-seat layout with captain seats in the second row.

Toyota also disclosed plans to hike prices for specific variants of select models in India starting in April 2024, with an increase of about 1 per cent for select models and variants. As a result of this adjustment, prices for the Hycross models now fall within the range of Rs 18.92 lakh to Rs 30.98 lakh (ex-showroom). Moreover, the brand also announced surpassing 50,000 unit sales for the Innova Hycross MPV in India, achieved within roughly 15 months since its launch in November 2022.

Looking ahead, Toyota is preparing to introduce a new GX (O) variant for the petrol version of the Innova Hycross. Positioned between the existing GX and VX trims, this new variant promises additional features such as front LED fog lamps, rear window demister, dual-tone seats, a 360-degree camera, front parking sensors, and an upgraded 10.1-inch touchscreen infotainment system with wireless Apple CarPlay compatibility.

Under the hood, the Hycross is powered by either a 2.0-litre naturally aspirated petrol engine generating 170 bhp and 205 Nm of torque, coupled with a CVT gearbox, or a 2.0-litre petrol engine paired with a strong-hybrid system producing 181 bhp and mated to an e-Drive transmission, available in top variants.
