Toyota Kirloskar Motor has launched the Toyota
Glanza with prices starting at INR 7.22 lakh*. This is the first Toyota product
derived from a Suzuki model under the new strategic partnership. The Toyota Glanza, as most would
know by now, is a rebadged Maruti Baleno. It’s differentiated from the donor
car with a unique two-slat 3D chrome front grille. There are two equipment
lines to select from, namely G and V. They are equivalent to the original
model’s Zeta and Alpha equipment lines respectively.
Automatic, LED projector headlamps with DRL
follow-me-home function, 16-inch diamond-cut alloy wheels, LED rear combination
lamps with light guide, UV protection glass, automatic climate control and 7.0-inch
touchscreen infotainment system with Apple CarPlay, Android Auto and
smartphone-based navigation are some of the equipment highlights. Most key
features are standard.
On the safety front, the Toyota Glanza comes with
dual-front airbags, ABS with EBD and BA, ISOFIX child-seat anchorages, reverse
parking sensors, reverse parking camera, speed alert system and more. There are two engine options
available, both BS-VI 1.2-litre naturally aspirated four-cylinder petrol units.
One produces 82.9 PS and 113 Nm of torque and comes paired with a
5-speed MT or a CVT. The fuel economy delivered by this engine is 21.01 km/l
(MT)/19.56 km/l CVT. The other develops 89.7 PS and 113 Nm of torque
and comes linked to a 5-speed MT. It features mild-hybrid technology and
returns a much higher fuel economy of 23.87 km/l.
Toyota Kirloskar Motor offers the Toyota Glanza with
a 3-year/1,00,000 km standard warranty. The Maruti Baleno’s standard warranty
coverage, on the other hand, is for 2-year/40,000 km. Back to the new model,
the warranty can be extended to 5-year/2,20,000 km optionally. Five colour
options are available - Cafe White, Sportin' Red, Insta Blue, Gaming Grey and
Enticing Silver.
