Petrol Innova Crysta launching next month.
The Toyota Innova Crysta was launched in the first week of May 2016, and has since recorded over 30,000 bookings. Sales of the Innova Crysta are nearly double that of the first-generation Innova, and this is despite the fact that Toyota Kirloskar Motor (TKM) is unable to sell the Innova Crysta in Delhi-NCR and Kerala (owing to a ban on large diesel-engined cars).
In the months of May and June 2015, TKM sold 5,028 and 4,144 units of the Innova respectively. Fast-forward a year and the Innova Crysta has sold 7,259 and 8,171 units in the months of May and June 2016, respectively.
Sales of the Innova have increased despite TKM increasing prices as well. The Innova Crysta range is priced from INR 13.83 to INR 20.77 lakhs, ex-Showroom, Mumbai and interestingly its the most expensive variant which accounts for a significant portion of sales.
The Innova Crysta is available with two engine options at the moment. A 2.4-liter diesel engine that develops 149 PS and 343 Nm of torque is available with a 5-speed manual gearbox and a 2.8-liter diesel engine producing 174 PS and 360 Nm of torque is paired to a 6-speed automatic transmission.
