The Toyota Innova Hycross has brought a fresh wave of excitement to India’s premium MPV segment. Unlike the diesel-powered Crysta, the Hycross is based on a monocoque chassis and offers a hybrid petrol powertrain that promises superior efficiency, enhanced comfort, and advanced technology. With a bolder design and powerful engine, the Hycross redefines what a family MPV can be in 2025.
Bold Exterior Design With SUV-Like Presence
Toyota has given the Innova Hycross a more SUV-inspired look with a high bonnet line, muscular wheel arches, sharp LED headlamps, and a wide front grille. The sculpted sides and sleek rear profile give it a dynamic stance that feels far more modern than traditional MPVs. With 17-inch or 18-inch alloy wheels and a longer wheelbase, it strikes the perfect balance between utility and style.
Strong Hybrid Performance With Outstanding Mileage
At the heart of the Innova Hycross is a 2.0-litre TNGA petrol engine mated to Toyota’s fifth-gen strong hybrid system, delivering a combined power output of 186 PS. The e-CVT gearbox ensures smooth acceleration and silent driving at low speeds. The strong hybrid delivers an impressive mileage of up to 23.24 kmpl, making it one of the most fuel-efficient 7-seaters in the Indian market.
Premium Interiors and Feature-Rich Cabin
Inside, the Hycross offers a luxurious cabin layout with soft-touch materials, ambient lighting, and a large panoramic sunroof. It features a 10.1-inch touchscreen infotainment system with wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, ventilated front seats, powered Ottoman captain seats in the second row, multi-zone climate control, and a digital driver display. The interior comfort makes it ideal for long-distance family travel.
Advanced Safety With ADAS and 5-Star Protection
Toyota has equipped the Innova Hycross with its Toyota Safety Sense suite, which includes advanced driver-assist systems like adaptive cruise control, lane departure alert, blind spot monitor, and automatic emergency braking. It also comes with six airbags, a 360-degree camera, TPMS, ABS with EBD, and ISOFIX mounts. The build quality and safety features ensure peace of mind for all occupants.
Price and Variants in India
The Toyota Innova Hycross is available in multiple trims including G, GX, VX, ZX, and ZX (O). Prices start from around ₹18.92 lakh to ₹30.68 lakh (ex-showroom). While the lower variants get the naturally aspirated petrol engine, the higher trims offer the hybrid system with full luxury and safety features.
The Best Hybrid MPV for Indian Families
The Toyota Innova Hycross is not just a successor to the Crysta; it’s a next-generation family car that delivers hybrid efficiency, SUV-like road presence, and premium comfort. For large Indian families looking for a reliable, fuel-efficient, and stylish 7-seater with advanced safety, the Hycross stands out as the most modern and complete MPV in its class.
