Toyota Kirloskar Motorhas released the first teaser of the upcoming Innova Hycross facelift ahead of its launch on November 25, 2026. The new model is expected to witness significant exterior and interior changes along with the addition of a flex-fuel strong hybrid powertrain. While the official prices, features, design details and specifications will be revealed in the coming days, multiple test mules have already revealed some interesting details.
The teaser shows newly-designed headlamps and LED DRL signatures that appear similar to the Taisor subcompact SUV. The MPV is also likely to feature a new slatted grille, newly-designed alloy wheels, revised front and rear bumpers and updated LED taillamps.
Design & Dimensions
Design elements such as squared-off wheel arches, chrome-finished door handles, dual-tone ORVMs with integrated turn indicators, a shark fin antenna, a raked windshield and a pronounced roof mounted spoiler are expected to be carried over from the existing model.
No changes are expected to its dimensions. The new Toyota Innova Hycross will continue to measure 4,755mm in length, 1845mm in width and 1,795mm in height with a wheelbase of 2,850mm. Similar to the existing model, the facelifted version will offer 185mm of ground clearance and 300-litres of boot space with all three rows up.
Larger Screen & More
The India-spec 2027 Toyota Innova Hycross could receive several updates similar to the recently unveiled Indonesia-spec Kijang Innova Zenix. The facelifted version is expected to feature a larger 12.3-inch touchscreen infotainment system and a new 7-inch TFT MID. Toyota might also introduce new upholstery options and interior trims.
Flex-Fuel Compliant Engine
Mechanically, the new Toyota Innova Hycross is expected to remain unchanged. It will continue to use the existing 2.0-litre, four-cylinder petrol-hybrid powertrain. However, the engine will become flex-fuel compliant, allowing it to run on higher ethanol blends. Transmission duties will continue to be handled by a CVT automatic gearbox.
Minimal Price Hike
Considering the subtle changes inside and out along with the introduction of a flex-fuel compliant engine, the new Toyota Innova Hycross is expected to see a minor price hike. The existing petrol variants are priced between Rs 19.53 lakh and Rs 21.12 lakh, while the strong hybrid variants are available in the price range of Rs 26.76 lakh – Rs 32.95 lakh. All prices mentioned are ex-showroom.
