Looking to snag a top-of-the-line Toyota Innova Hycross ZX or ZX(O) hybrid MPV? Great news! Bookings are officially back open after a temporary halt last year due to supply chain issues. But hold on a sec, there’s a slight catch – these powerful hybrids come with a price increase, effective April 1st, 2024.
High Demand, Limited Supply: The Story Behind the Booking Halt
Remember the frenzy around the Innova Hycross launch in January 2023? The top-spec ZX and ZX(O) hybrids were especially popular, leading to prioritization in deliveries. This high demand, coupled with supply constraints, prompted Toyota to temporarily pause bookings for these variants.
Price Update: Innova Hycross Hybrid Gets a Bump
The wait is over, but expect to pay a little more. Toyota has implemented a 1% price hike for the Innova Hycross hybrid variants. This translates to a price range of Rs 25.97 lakh to Rs 30.98 lakh (ZX(O)). Depending on the variant, the increase falls between Rs 15,000 and Rs 30,000. In contrast, the non-hybrid variants retain their price range of Rs 19.77-19.82 lakh.
Peeking Under the Hood: Innova Hycross Powertrain Options
The Innova Hycross caters to diverse driving preferences. Choose from a 2.0-liter, four-cylinder naturally aspirated petrol engine churning out 173hp and 209Nm of torque, or opt for the fuel-efficient 2.0-liter, four-cylinder strong hybrid that generates a combined output of 184hp and seamlessly integrates with an e-Drive transmission.
