The first generation Innova could be sold alongside the Innova Crysta.

The 'Crysta' name has been used by TKM in the past for a special edition on the Toyota Innova. However, the name will represent the second generation of the MPV this time, indicating that TKM may continue the first generation Innova for fleet buyers.

Based on a new ladder-frame platform, the Toyota Innova Crysta is expected to be powered by the new 2.4-liter GD diesel engine and possibly even the 2.0-liter Dual VVT-i petrol engine (TKM says its looking to introduce petrol variants on the Innova and Fortuner to circumvent the Supreme Court ban on diesel vehicles with engine capacity greater than 2,000 cc).
