Mini Innova Is Coming - This Is Toyota Avanza
Toyota India is doing extremely well in India with its segment leader people mover "Innova" and recently launched Fortuner which has also been a big hit. Now, they are planning to add a third vehicle to its ‘Innovative International Multi-purpose Vehicle’ (IMV) line-up in the country. This vehicle will be the Avanza - which is already on sale in Thailand, where it slots in below the Fortuner and Innova.
Toyota Avanza is smaller than the Innova and which is expected to be around 20-25% cheaper than its bigger sibling. Avanza is expected to be feature the same 1495cc engine which also powers the Thailand model. This petrol engine develops maximum power of 107 Bhp at 6000 rpm with maximum torque 141 Nm at 4400 rpm. It is expected that Toyota India will also display the Avanze at it stall in Auto Expo, 2010. The company could subsequently launch the Avanza in the Indian market by mid-2010 or early-2011.
