    DRIVING:
    Few thousand kilometers

    The exterior design is orthodox but suits the MUV. Any more or less detail would have made the car look terrible. Not really aerodynamic as well. Poor default headlamps(50/60w) for its size. No external accessories comes with the package. It costed 17.5 lakhs on road in chennai and the additional accessories costed around 40k. Overall you wil have to spend atleast 18lakhs in chennai.

     

    Comes with a fabric covered seat and if you want something like rexin or leather you will have to shell out another 10-50k depending upon the material you choose. Comes with a touch screen dvd player which supports phone, media players and also USB. Touch is poor and the stereo has no remote. Big letdown. Seating comfort and the space provided is very good. The Auto-climate control is something to cheer about in the otherwise not so cool interiors. It supports a rear camera where you can only basically see your bumper, very annoying. Last but no the least, the gauge is well lit and looks beautiful, while the steer mount controls are not well placed.

     

    The 2.5L engine gives out 103 PS power which is pretty good doesgreat job except for the loud noise. Extremely reliable. Economy is really poor, gives about 10/13kmpl (city/highway) with the driver alone and with full capacity gives 7/10kmpl. 

     

    The ride quality is super smooth and adapts well to rocky terrain thanks to the leaf springs. Steering the vehicle is very easy and feels like your riding a small car. Gear is well placed and looks more sporty and shifts well too. Poor braking though.

     

    Innova is a great car for those are a fans of toyota and wouldn't mind wasting a lot of money on an overpriced vehicle.

     

    There is a lot to improve starting from the brakes to the overpriced cars. Taking advantage of the market is not going to help in the long run. I'd rather prefer a Ssanyong Rexton over Innova . I must admit i regret getting one.

     

     

    Comfort, leaf springs, good seatsNo external or internal accessories except for the audio and rear cam. Engine sound.
