Toyota Innova HyCross: Fully REVEALED in new leaked pictures

Just a few days before the full-fledged arrival of the new Toyota Innova Hycross, we have a big surprise for you. A couple of pictures of the all-new upcoming Toyota Innova Zenix, which will be rebranded for India as Innova Hycross, have surfaced on the internet, which completely reveals the front look and interior of the premium MPV.

Putting an end to all the speculations, the fully-revealed exterior image of the Toyota Innova Hycross showcase all the new details the MPV will be getting. The Innova Hycross gets a pair of sleeker, horizontally-laid full-LED headlamps, between which there is a large hexagonal grille. With chrome surrounds on the sides and bottom, this grille looks inspired by that of the current-gen Innova Crysta.

There are two exterior images of the Innova Hycross available, both of which are of different variants. The more premium variant of the two gets sleek daytime running LED strips housed in the triangular housings of the front bumper, which are adjoined by a sleek horizontal air dam. The lower air dam at the bottom of the front bumper houses rounded fog lamps on its corners.

There are well-defined contours on the bonnet and door panels, which make the Innova Hycross look more stylish than the Innova Crysta. Even the designs for the alloy wheels look different in both variants, though both of them get blacked wheel arch moulding over them.

Luxurious cabin

A few images of the Toyota Innova Hycross have also leaked, which indicate that the MPV might get two upholstery options across different variants – an all-black cloth upholstery and a dual-tone black and walnut brown leather upholstery. The cabin looks modern with visible features like a floating touchscreen infotainment system, dual-zone automatic climate control, and a transmission lever mounted on the lower centre console of the dashboard. The cabin of the Innova Hycross will also get a panoramic sunroof and roof-mounted rear AC vents, as teased in the official pictures before.

The new Toyota Innova Hycross will debut in India on November 25th and is set to arrive as a petrol-only model. The MPV is confirmed to get a full-hybrid powertrain comprising a combination of a petrol engine, an electric motor and a lithium-ion battery, in place of the 2.4-litre diesel engine of the Innova Crysta. While it is unclear, a standard naturally-aspirated petrol engine might also be on offer, at least in lower-spec variants.

There will be a 2.0-litre petrol engine that also gets a strong hybrid system with a few variants. The engine will produce a combined power of about 175 to 185 PS. The fuel efficiency is expected to be around 20-23 km/l. The details of the strong hybrid system is not out yet. We are not sure if Toyota continues to use the 216V NiMH unit that the brand uses in the global market and will offer a better battery pack for the Indian market.
