Nice find there ET. What I notice is that the grill is more compact and may be its going to have reflectors alike what Qualis had when it was face lifted! Let's hope that it comes here soon.

What exactly are the changes done? I cannot spot any variations compared to the current Innova? Only the grille seems to be different, could be because of the camouflage.

Rear looks just the same too... the alloys are brilliant though.

The changes are minor- clear headlamps( i think the black inserts are replaced by clearer ones ), New alloys and i guess there will be some minor change in the taillamps too.

New grills and bumper on the Innova looks great and goes well with the current design direction of many Toyotas.
They've put in full clear lamps as in other countries. But they should've done this when they launched it here in the first place. It was an eyesore to see those blackened headlamps. Our Innova had the clear lamps from the first week we took delivery.

The new Corolla is long overdue. As soon as it gets here, the better.

I am not able to open the link provided. What comes after toyota in Could open the Toytoa Innova caught in some other country.
IMO, it is more in tune with Avanza now.
Looks better than the present version.

Any updates in engine department. The one in Indonasia can make 26kgm of torque. Is there any change in ECM to make this configuration for India.

Climate control is present in the current generation too.
Parking sensors are a good addition. The best alternative to the aftermarket ones.

I can't see much difference from the earlier model. Infact they could have done better. They should know that the ingenio is just round the corner.
