Toyota India has launched the new Glanza premium hatchback, as a result of its association with Maruti Suzuki. V3Cars offers you all the important details of the new car.
Japanese auto major Toyota has recently launched the Glanza premium hatchback model in India starting at Rs. 7.22 lakhs. The new Toyota Glanza 2019 is the first product of Toyota’s partnership with Maruti Suzuki. The Glanza is essentially a rebadged version of the updated new 2019 Maruti Suzuki Baleno that launched in January.
In terms of styling, the new Toyota Glanza is identical to the Maruti Baleno, except the front radiator grille design. The Glanza comes with projector headlamps along with LED DRLs and stylish two-tone alloy wheels. It also sports stylish LED tail lights.
The new Toyota Glanza premium hatchback is being offered for sale as an all-petrol car and is available in only 2 trim levels — G and V, both of which come with a manual and CVT automatic gearbox options. The Glanza G and V trims are based on the Baleno’s top variants Zeta and Alpha variants, respectively. The car also has three engine-gearbox options.
The Glanza cabin is also similar to the Baleno’s and borrows the same SmartPlay Studio infotainment system that Toyota calls the ‘Smart Playcast’ apart from a whole range of comfort and convenience features. The Glanza is also packed with good safety features that are available on the refreshed, including dual front airbags, ABS with EBD, rear parking sensors, rear camera and much more.
Needless to say, the Glanza shares the same petrol engine with the Baleno as well. The 1.2-liter petrol engine has the capability to generate a max power of 83 PS and 113 Nm of peak torque. Transmission duty is handled by a 5-speed manual and a CVT automatic gearbox option.
The new Toyota Glanza also gets manufactured at Maruti Suzuki’s production facility in Manesar.
The Glanza comes with a 3 year/1 lakh km warranty over Maruti Baleno’s 2 years/ 40,000 km warranty.
The Toyota Glanza 2019 will be rivaling with the likes of the Hyundai Elite i20, Honda Jazz, upcoming Tata Altroz and its identical twin Maruti Suzuki Baleno.
