This makes the Crysta the only vehicle in its segment to be offered with both petrol and diesel engine options.

The petrol variant of the Toyota Innova Crysta has finally been launched after being in the pipeline for a long time. The base model of the petrol MPV has been priced at Rs 13.72 lakh, whereas the top-spec variant comes at Rs 19.62 lakh (ex-showroom Delhi). The timing for the launch is right as 2.0-litre or higher capacity diesel engines are currently facing a ban in Delhi and Kerala. The petrol variant of the MPV will allow Toyota to sell the Crysta in these regions.

It is offered in four variants, namely, Zx (7-seater) automatic, Gx (7-8-seater) automatic, Vx (7-seater) manual and Gx (7-8-seater) manual.

Akito Tachibana, managing director of Toyota Kirloskar Motor (TKM) said, “The Innova is an iconic brand and has long established itself as the number 1 MPV in the Indian market. Often referred to as the segment creator, the brand Innova has proved itself again by being the first in the segment to offer a vehicle with a petrol variant.”

Commenting on the introduction, N. Raja, director and senior vice president (sales & marketing), TKM said, “The recently launched Innova Crysta has received an overwhelming response from the market. We are very thankful to our customers who have helped us realise this dream. We are confident that the Innova Crysta petrol will be equally successful in continuing the legacy that the iconic brand Innova has created in the Indian MPV market.”

The ARAI-certified mileage figures read 10.83kmpl for the automatic version and 9.89kmpl for the manual one.
