The Hilux and Fortuner share Toyota's IMV platform, which is utilized by the Innova as well. A Euro 4 2.8-liter diesel engine that generates 172 horsepower and 360 Nm of torque for automatic versions and 168 horsepower and 343 Nm of torque for manual variations powers the enduring MPV. The aforementioned mill can be coupled with a 5-speed manual or a 6-speed automatic gearbox.
Ventilated disc brakes up front and leading-trailing drum brakes in back provide stopping power for the Innova. The back of the MPV is equipped with a 4-link coil spring system, while the front rides on an independent coil spring double-wishbone suspension with stabilizers. Rack and Pinion Power steering provide the steering. The older Hydraulic Power Steering system is still in use on the Innova, in contrast to its competitors, which use EPS.
Technology Features
The Innova V and G models include a 7-inch touchscreen system with a 6-speaker audio system and support for Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. The 6.75-inch screen on the E model, on the other hand, is marginally smaller but nonetheless offers the same features as the bigger infotainment system. In contrast to the rest of the range, the J version has fewer speakers and a more basic 2-DIN radio with many audio features like CD, AM, FM, Bluetooth, USB, and auxiliary. Finally, push-start ignition and automated temperature control are added to the V and G models of the Innova.
As standard on the V and G models, the MPV has intermittent wipers with time adjusters and a mist function. While it lacks any sporadic features, the rear wiper is standard on all models. The wipers on the E and J standard model merely mist and are sporadic.
The V variant of the Toyota Innova has clearance lamps in addition to LED projector-style headlamps, whereas the other models in the range have multi-reflector halogen headlights. The V-spec Innova has LED fog lights for fog and driving lamps, whereas the remainder of the lineup—aside from the J variant—has halogen fog lights. For the V and G versions, the Innova's outside door handles are grip-style handles with chrome embellishments. The E and J versions, however, are limited to color-keyed door handles alone.
The Innova's interior has space for eight people for the remainder of the range and seven people for the MPV V variation. Every model in the range has seat material covered in a fabric whose color changes with each version. With silver accents on the air conditioning vents and across the dashboard, the vehicle's interior is primarily black. However, the MPV's variation will determine the trim of the passenger dash accent. The G and V versions of the Innova come equipped with ambient lighting as well.
Safety
Airbags for the driver and passenger as well as side and curtain shield airbags are among the safety features of the Toyota Innova. The extra benefit of a knee airbag is also enjoyed by the driver. The MPV also has vehicle stability control, hill-start assist, and an emergency stop signal in addition to airbags. For all versions, including EBD, ABS is also included as standard equipment.
The second row of seats in the Innova have 3-point seatbelts and ISOFIX tethers for kid seats, so there are plenty of seatbelts there. The same treatment is given up front to the driver and front passenger. All rear occupants in the third row are also equipped with 3-point seatbelts. As a passive safety element, side impact beams are standard on the whole range.
