BS6 Toyota Innova Crysta launched at Rs 15.36 lakh

As we’d exclusively reported last week, Toyota has opened bookings and revealed prices for the BS6 Toyota Innova Crysta, with prices starting at Rs 15.36 lakh for the base petrol model and Rs 16.14 lakh for the entry-level diesel model.

The Innova Crysta has for long been the mainstay of Toyota’s India line-up, and the switch to BS6 engines has brought with it a major hike in price. While the BS6 petrol Innova Crysta is anywhere between Rs 31,000 to Rs 63,000 more expensive depending on the variant, prices for the Innova Crysta diesel are up by Rs 59,000 to as high as Rs 1.3 lakh for the mid-spec VX variants. The Innova Crysta Touring Sport, meanwhile, is pricier by Rs 41,000 to Rs 1 lakh. Also worth noting is the fact that Toyota has billed these prices 'introductory', so they will almost certainly rise further in the time to come.

Toyota has chosen to introduce the BS6 Innova Crysta with only one diesel engine – the trusty 2.4-litre unit, which has been upgraded to meet BS6 norms with the help of a Selective Catalytic Reduction (SCR) system and a Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF). The 174hp, 2.8-litre diesel – which was only available with an automatic gearbox – is not part of the Innova range now in the interests of keeping prices in check. Toyota has also not shared updated power figures for the BS6 Innova Crysta, but we shall update this story with the figures as soon as we have them.

The rest of the Innova package continues unchanged. There are no other cosmetic or mechanical changes to the MPV, the only notable difference being the 2.4-litre diesel – which could previously only be had with a five-speed manual gearbox – now also comes with the option of a six-speed automatic gearbox.

What do you think of the BS6 Toyota Innova Crysta's prices? Let us know in the comments.
