- The all-new Toyota Innova Hycross is an Innova unlike any before. It makes the radical switch to a monocoque construction and front-wheel drive layout, and it's only on sale with petrol and petrol strong hybrid options. And there's a greater focus on luxury. Gavin D'Souza tells you how it all comes together.

Looks like mini kia carnival
P
That 3rd row space was a much needed surprise 😮 kudos to the team ❤
Literally shocked at the amount of space that third row generates🤯
I'd like to know his height. First of all.
Srsly...i also shocked that...third row can hold 3 person esily...wow
King of MPV segment Innova after all
Yeah
Not literally
all Toyota needs to do is to not overprice it
Expect 4 lacs delta overcurrent price
thats like asking the sun to not rise tomorrow
Yup

They will
Gavin and car both goes smooth. Give it up to Gavin!! Awesome car, awesome review.
This is the best review so far compared to other reviewers!
The intro was awesome 💯
Nice review ❤️
A shoutout to the legendary Diesel engines for always adding that extra oomph to the driving experience, the pushback acceleration from hefty torque will always be missed... be it the 2.2L Dicor of the Safari, or the 3.2L from Ford's Endeavour, or the 2.4L from Toyota, or the 1.3L Fiat's Mulitjet or the 2.2mHawk from Mahindra or the 2.0L Fiat's multijet or the 1.5 TDCI from Ford. Moving on from Diesels won't be easy, we will now either get the performance or the efficiency ,they were best of both the worlds !! Love diesels out and out. Buying a meek 200NM-300NM petrol SUV delivering 6-8kmpl mileage will always be a nightmare for me.
So damn true ! Diesels were the best of both worlds providing good performance at a economical rate. Truly gonna miss them ! I have an innova crysta 2.8L diesel which is a beast ! I can’t think of giving up that engine for this meager engine. That engine puts out 360Nm compared to the 188Nm of the hycross !
Ive a 1.5 diesel venue 240nm torque without breaking the wallet. With the mileage of 13-14 even in cities
Don't forget 2.0 tdi from VW.
A
We are in the final years. We are the last generation who will get a chance to buy, drive and enjoy Diesel powered ICE.
Eagerly waiting for the GAVIN bro review.
We the fan of you bro review all auto cars in your way so we can enjoy it like driving with you.Thank for the wonderful review autocar.
Just waiting for the review..from ..AUTOCAR
Toyota nailed this segment
A good looking Innova, bound to be a massive success.
It's do or die for them right now
Truly spacious (7-8 seater in true sense), it may not have the punchy mid range but fuel economy is amazing. 12-14 in city 16-18 in highway is really BIG for the car of this size.
No brother the mileage of this car is 21.1 kmpl
You have to add battery replacement cost every 5 to 6 years
@@jayaprakashnarayana6677 nah man it cant be
Lit one 🔥,, Once again Toyota Bring another beast to rule Indian auto market 🔥🙌
They should bring the corrolla back as well, considering the TNGA platform is here...
They can. But there will be no takers.
Coming soon
There will be Corolla cross over.. Like the other markets
@@seondsilva2842 they should, like virtus and salvia has heated the segment
Coming back with flex engine
It's quite very good but the 1st gen Innova was and is very memorable and pure gold
Very good car because brand like Toyota deserves it. Very good explanation as usual 🙏
I am very happy with all the changes,
Monocoque construction meaning even lesser body roll, better reachability, lesser blindspot.
FWD meaning better efficiency, it wouldn't be used as a taxi anymore (big w), lesser curb weight, more internal space as no transmission tunnel.
Better road presence, better space. Wider wheelbase meaning even more space!
Trust me with better efficency it will be used even more as a taxi, especially in Delhi region with the 10 year rule on Disel rule.
FWD would make handling worse I think? And why wouldn't it be used as a taxi anymore?
@@hyperterminal_reborn RWD used to help on hills before
Heavy , big quantity Metal, body on frame, Rear wheel drive, Diesel Innova Base model with far more moving parts ,On road comes at 22lac, hence this should come at 18lac on Road, it's meant to kill Safari and Xuv700 actually.
@@hyperterminal_reborn not likely if suspension tuned and body weight balanced with stiffeness to get intact and control
This Innova will be a huge success if Toyota price it competitively, handle the current Chip shortage situation intelligently, and deliver the bookings as quickly as possible. I am eager to see a diesel engine and a fully electric version of this Innova soon in the future.
companies are slowly phasing out diesel engines.
It's going to sell well irrespective of the pricing.
Competitive pricing? No way, the initial booking amount for innova Hycross of RS.50000 says it all...
There will be no diesel
None of those will happen and it will still sell well.
Awesome 👌 look mixture of innova & fortuner......I m gonna buy this one...
love it!🤤 a few more curves in the rear would have take it up a notch or two
Amazing look man ............... the back looks killer
Nice review. How many gears in the auto-gear?
Comprehensive review!
all i can say i'll be waiting for it's 2nd part because this car is really good
After a long time I saw
Gavin
Making a video 😁
Looks awesome & huge !!! Love it
Please make a video with all Innovas presenting the evolution across these years!!
I didn't notice 360 degree camera. A must for car of this size
Just when I fell in love with LOF diesels… the legends gave it up. 😢
Been waiting for this video , it's finally out. Btw First comment 👍. Awesome Work .
not anymore
Can you please do a comparison video between the Hycross and the new Kia Carnival. You did one between the Innova and Carnival sometime back which was amazing and informative and inspiring as well. Thank you
Nicely done review.
That's gonna sell like a piece of cake!!!
GREAT VIDEO. WITH MORE LUXURY AND HYBRID BENEFITS. THIS WILL DEMOLISH ITS OWN SEGMENT WHICH NEVER EXISTED IN COMPETITION AND ALSO THE SEGMENT ABOVE.
Great
Just to confirm that does the Hycross has digital navigation system so as to navigate with Google maps etc
Need bench seat option for middle row seats, as that will suit need of many families around. as for me 3 row seat would be always folded for that extra luggage space and middle row bench seat would play an important role in that.
Believe me or not, my Innova 2012 D2D engine once gave a milage of 18kmpl when driven at 75-85km/hr at highway.
i also extracted 17 kmpl with my 2013 Innova 2.5G diesel
Don't believe
I’m countinusily 60 km /h drive my Innova intercoller 2014 model and avarege is 22 I’m shock but it’s true
Honda City Hybrid gives 34 kmpl at steady 60 kmph.
Is the tyre size smaller considered to the size of the MPV, is it me only felt
Inniva Hycross will rock!!
DAMN. this was smooth.
Toyota Innova Hycross is a complete package of Great Design, Tech Savvy like ADAS, Cool features, Sunroof and practicality. Got an amazing road presence with its SUV look from the front. It’ll definitely a big hit on roads if Toyota price it comparatively on lower side or even same as Crysta. If it costs more than 35 lakhs ex-showroom definitely it’s sales will be affected as people will go with Mahindra XUV 700 as its top model costs ₹30L on road. Plus it got same features and more luxurious interiors.
Looks stunning
Priced rightly... this beast will be the trend setter and pushes back competitors and away EVs for another decade.
I'm particularly interested in the base variants with the naturally aspirated 2.0 with CVT gear box. would like ACI to do a TD of that too.
The problem is efficiency it’s petrol in a 2 ton vehicle would barely be 7kmpl average
Yes tru… for any thing base will be good
This is the engine out of toyota rav4. & The engine is one of the most advanced mass produced engines out there. With thermal efficiency reaching 50% this is the pinnacle of japanese engeeneering & capabilities. This is in use since 2017 in north america & many cars there have gone well beyond 600k km without issues with this engine. Although american cars get more highway miles as they drive long distance everywhere they go the country is so big but you can expect 300k easily here. Most of our cars die low km cus of slow city driving while having equal amount of engine hours
It would be interesting to checkout the suspension quality on bad roads and steep hill climb
This will FINISH off the Compass, Meridian, Carnival and C5 Aircross. Fantastic car!! Gavin has done a great job with the review as well!!
Lets just hope Toyota prices it well 🤞
Wait till Kia brings in new carnival. it's leagues better and almost looks like a range rover plus all the luxurious interiors Toyota can only dream of giving in India
C5 Aircross has to get started first. Lol.
Heavy , big quantity Metal, body on frame, Rear wheel drive, Diesel Innova Base model with far more moving parts ,On road comes at 22lac, hence this should come at 18lac on Road, it's meant to kill Safari and Xuv700 actually.
Not at all, Diesels have their own advantages including superb long term reliability
Please do a review of the 8 seater
Awesome! Just one question. What's the range in Electric mode?
This is not an EV car like 100% batteries got charged by plugged in. It is Hybrid car which cannot be plugged in. However it has two engines, one is Petrol Engine and another one is Electric Motor. Petrol engine normally works for highways/roadways. For Electric motors, there is batteries installed under the car which can get automatically charged during the drive after filling Petrol. Accordingly the electric motor will work to move the car instead the petrol engine. In shot the hybrid technology helps to switch petrol engine to electric motor / electric motor to petrol engine according to the driving conditions to give maximum fuel efficiency.
1) Petrol / Diesel engine vehicles
2) 100% Electric Vehicles (EVs)
3) 100% Electric Vehicles with an additional generator (Range Extended EVs)
4) With Hybrid technology the installed batteries can be charged so that the Electric Motor will work automatically while driving the car for more fuel efficiently instead of Petrol Engine (HEVs). HEVs cannot be plugged in. Need to fill Petrol/ Diesel to apply the Hybrid technology (HEVs).
5) Plug in Hybrid Vehicles with separate EV engine & Petrol engine (PHEVs). Can be plugged in to charge the batteries. Means vehicle can be driven by using electric motor even without the fuel.
I' so glad for purchasing Innova CRYSTA last year
Does the AC runs when the engine is off ? And I wish the AWD premium option was available ..
Perfect car for long trips . I will get it soon .
Fantastic look and amazing technology powered by Toyota trust badge. All areas ticked. In short an amazing car and looking forward for the price range.
Great pricing too! Real game changer.
Now finally Innova got good shape I love the new Innova
Put larger tyres please...
I Was refreshing Autocar India page since 12:00 pm and it popped up at 12:03 😂
@autocarindia can you guys can comment on ford india comeback is the rumors are true will we able to see new endeavour on indian roads via CBU route ?
Absolute Stunner
Kia should consider bringin in their new Carnival to India, it's one hell of an MPV. Almost a Range Rover in terms of look and interior quality...😍😍
same .
Could you maybe comment on the non hybrid GX variant especially 0-100 time, 0-60 time, general drive review etc. compared to hybrid variant and also other petrol vehicles in the category? Thanks.
Nice car but there is no infotainment screen in the middle row... Indonesia models have them
What is the cycle that is employed in regular petrol engines? If it is not Atkinson, then why do manufacturers not deploy it in cars in the 5 to 15 lakhs price bracket? Hope AutoCar replies to my question.
Wished it would had been named as qualis it would have refreshed those old memories those gear lever & dashbord reminds of that qualis it wold haven truely iconic & nostalgic
These tyres seems very small while comparing to the body.. will it give road grip while taking sharp cut?? The same look I felt while seeing MG hector
Hycross is the crossbreed of Innova and Fortuner🤣🤣
Not at all. Both the cars you've mentioned are RWD and Ladder frame whereas Hycross is FWD MONOCOQUE
Its a cross breed of innova and ertiga. Come on..
it doesnt have the fun and power an innova or fortuner gives
The beast is back.
Nice information
How is 360 camera quality
Some people said not so good ( 360 camera)
The third row is usable not just for kids but also for adults and seats three persons... Only thing is the auto gear setup position is unappealing....nice to see 👍
Do they offer Recliner seats with Middle Bench seat design ?
This will be the best car and a perfect 7-8 seater if it can be priced within 30 lks on road which looks really tough
Each time innova brought new gen.. they simply rejuvenated this product. It seems it is defying the laws of product life cycle. Innova was immortal and now surely will continue to be immortal after so much of added specifications which earlier versions lacked.
It is interesting to see how Toyota dealt with the boot space and 3rd row comfort, despite the vehicle being a strong hybrid 🤔🤔🤔 Generally boot space is compromised in cars like Hyryder, City Hybrid, ETC.
Toyota is the unrival and competition less hybrid king !!
No one can come close !!
Feature wise - Hycross and Look wise - Crysta
was this video shot at jw mariott golfshire bangalore?
Nice review! Two questions - (1) why do companies offer their top variants only with captain seats? There are many who want the same specs with a bench seat in the middle row. It's a deal-breaker at times. Some go for a middle seat as an accessory from the local shops. Isn't it ridiculous? (2) Isn't Android Auto wireless in Hycross? You said that Apple Car Play is wireless. Is that so?
One can’t beat old Innova model between 2007 to 2014.
What about those led headlight is it power full at night??
My gut feel is that the production specs model will have few changes like higher profile tyres, manually adjustable recline for 2nd-row seats & six air bags on all variants
hi do you recommed XUV700 AX7 or Innova HyCross HYBRID ZX (O)?
Your review is better than Faisal khan
Exactly, autocar makes best review .... Faisal khan is only focused on acceleration...!
Car looks absolutely loaded but definitely needs bigger tyres to match that butch size.
No, bigger tyres will bump the wheel arch every 2 minutes, because of the bad roads in India. The gap needs to be there so that the tires can move up and down more . But it's true that every indian car model looks very childish because of wheels
I am looking for power , shall I go for diesel Crysta or hycross . Please suggest .
Will they be coming out with AWD of this?
Superb suv, i request Toyota to upgrade the touchscreen to the new generation type 🙏.
Gavin thanks for this video
This generation of Innova is showing that Toyota is finally moving in the right direction, with a feature rich vehicle built on a modern day monocoque chassis while using the latest of hybrid powertrain which is a great balance of performance/economy. Hoping the last bit on pricing is great as well and this is sure to become a winner.
Outstanding video has analysed the new Innova very well.
Excellent work by Gavin D’Souza who speaks flawlessly and with supreme ease. Congratulations.
What about the shudder and jitters of the steering wheel when u quickly come down from high speeds … anything done about it
Waiting for this
Camera crew 🔥
Very neat interiors
Well done Toyota.
Bring this to the Philippines.
❤
Hows the build quality is it like hyryder?
this thing looks awesome
Finally Toyota is taking Indian market seriously, instead of just rebadging MS vehicles or overpricing Crysta for ages 🙏🙏🙏
3 omissions. Navigation is gone. It was fab! Rear seat trays missing. Ideal for placing a laptop or digital device to watch content on long drives. Ability of Rear seat passenger to push the front seat all the way forward thru a latch seems to have gone too.
Wow.... 👌
9:40 why didn't toyota implement a "boss mode" lever for the front passenger seat?
Finally a well finished product from toyota in terms of engineering and features. 🔥🔥🔥
the back side looks like vitra brezza 2018 model + in some angle it looks like ertiga....
maybe maruti Suzuki plans to make its own version of innova
What happened to those easy one touch tumble seat?
