Toyota Glanza variants, features explained

Set to launch on June 6, 2019, there has been plenty of speculation and rumours about exactly what equipment Toyota will provide with its Glanza premium hatchback. We can now reveal the exact list of features, engines, gearboxes and creature comforts that will be available on each variant of the Toyota Glanza. As we had reported earlier, what is essentially a badge-engineered version of Maruti Suzuki’s Baleno, will launch in two variants (both higher-spec versions) and three engine-gearbox combinations – an 83hp, 1.2-litre petrol-MT; an 83hp, 1.2-litre petrol-CVT; and a 90hp, 1.2-litre Smart Hybrid-MT.

When it arrives in showrooms, one of the Toyota Glanza’s main USPs over its rivals (like the Maruti Baleno, Honda Jazz and Hyundai i20), will be its longer 3-year/unlimited kilometre standard warranty pack. Considering the Glanza variants are expected to be priced at a premium over their respective Baleno variants, expect Toyota to price its hatchback in the Rs 8-9 lakh (ex-showroom) bracket.
