Japanese auto major Toyota though a revered name in the Indian car market, is not as popular here as the other international markets owing its premium tag. However, Toyota does not mind it and after a short and not so fruitful stint in the mass market, the Japanese car major has turned its focus back on its premium offerings. Toyota is best known for its Corolla, Innova and the Fortuner models in the car market of India, where they hold very special and leading positions. Toyota Kirloskar India knows the importance of new launches in order to grab the limelight from time to time. Thus, the company is getting ready to launch a slew of new car models in India.
Toyota India is expected to launch as many as three new models in the year 2016. These three are namely the much anticipated Vios sedan, Next generation Innova and the all new Fortuner.
Let’s check out these three new Toyota vehicles in brief:
Toyota Vios
The Toyota Vios sedan is massively popular in the global markets and has been a long awaited car in India. Toyota has been contemplating the Indian launch of this mid-sized sedan for some time now. The Vios in India could be powered by a 1.5 liter petrol and a 1.4 liter D-4D diesel mill. The luxurious sedan is expected to offer the fuel efficiency of around 15 kmpl in its petrol version, whereas the diesel variants are likely to offer around 20 kmpl. The interiors of the India spec Vios are expected to be feature-rich and luxurious.

The new Innova will also get a 6-speed automatic and manual gearbox choices. The all new Innova will be loaded with many more comfort and safety features compared to the current model.
