5 years with a Toyota Innova Crysta Petrol

I drove with a light foot and got an average of about 13 Km/L. More than 70% of it was on a cruise at 90 Kmph.

BHPian Turbanator recently shared this with other enthusiasts.

I got a chance to travel/ drive our Petrol model after a while. Usually, my mother uses it and prefers it over anything else. I went to Ludhiana in the morning and sat in the rear. Very different (for better) experience than I had recently in a Taxi Innova in Bhopal. No noise and felt suspension on ours is much better for some reason. It might be due to the limited mileage on ours vs the commercial used one.

Our driver had to go somewhere urgently on return, so I got the car back to Chandigarh. As far I recollect, the engine sound is even less than what was originally, and the car is super silent. I drove with a light foot and got an average of about 13 Kmpl. More than 70% of it was on a cruise at 90 Kmph. Ludhiana- Chandigarh highway is currently one of the best in this region.

I also checked for the cracks on the steering and dash, and I am glad to report no visible signs on ours. Again, it can be due to limited use ( 10,000 Km, 2017 MY)

Real-world fuel efficiency of the Toyota Innova Crysta petrol

Having tested the car across multiple city and highway conditions over 3000 kms, I am extremely satisfied with the performance and mileage it delivers.

BHPian sid_deb recently shared this with other enthusiasts.

Innova Crysta Petrol Real-Life Mileage Update

Having tested the car across multiple city and highway situations over 3000 kms, I am extremely satisfied with the performance and mileage it delivers.

Overall, this car can deliver anywhere between 4-20 kmpl depending on the traffic conditions and driving style. Using the below image across 6 trips as an anchor to explain. This has been with 3 people on-board and AC on all the time. The MID average mileage is pretty accurate and has always been within 0.5km/l of the tank-full method.

Trip 2: Bumper to bumper mileage

I had run into a huge traffic jam on the Gurgaon expressway due to police roadblocks and an accident. The car returned around 4 kmpl to cover around 2 kms in 30 minutes.

Trip 3: Bumper to bumper plus city traffic mileage (combined)

Mid-way into the jam on trip 2, I reset the mileage again. It took another 25 minutes to cover the jam and then completed my trip till Kherki Dhaula. The average mileage the car returned was 9.8 kmpl.

Trip 1 and 4: City traffic mileage

In the city with peak traffic, the car delivers around 10.1-10.3 kmpl. This is also now consistent with trip 3.

Trip 5: Highway mileage - Steady state driving at 80 kmph

The car if driven at a constant speed of 80 kmph without any braking, delivers 20+ kmpl. Never expected a 2.7L 1.8T petrol beast to return this. Mileage has gone up considerably. The engine has completely settled in now and is way smoother post the highway driving.

Trip 6 or Now: Highway mileage - Driving around 90-100 kmph

The car if driven at 90-100 kmph, easily returns around 15-15.5kmpl.

However as I mentioned in my previous post, if driven super hard on the highways with frequent over-takes and speeds over 100 kmph, the car will deliver around 10-11 kmpl on an average.

Exterior Update

Finally got the detailing done, the car looks shiny as new. All the hard water stains have been removed. I was making a mistake of washing the car and not draining the fluid

Hope it stays like this always.

Toyota switches to 17-inch rims on Innova Crysta Z

Thanks to BHPian amalji for sharing this information with other enthusiasts!

Toyota has reintroduced 17-inch alloy wheels in the top-spec Z variant of the Innova Crysta. The company has also introduced 17-inch alloy wheels in the Touring Sport edition of the MPV.

It may be recalled that Toyota had discontinued the 17-inch wheels and replaced them with 16-inch rims after receiving reports about excessive tyre wear under heavy loads. With the reintroduction of the 17-inch wheels, the company has used 215/55 section tyres that are claimed to have stiffer sidewalls. 

The Innova Crysta Z variant and Touring Sport edition are available with a 2.4-litre, 4-cylinder diesel engine that produces 148 BHP @ 3,400 rpm and 343 Nm of torque @ 1,400-2,800 rpm. This engine is paired with a 5-speed manual gearbox. A more powerful 2.8-litre, 4-cylinder diesel engine mated to a 6-speed automatic transmission is also on offer. This unit produces 172 BHP @ 3,400 rpm and 360 Nm of torque @ 1,200-3,400 rpm. 

Apart from the two diesel engines, Toyota offers a 2.7-litre, 4-cylinder petrol engine in the Crysta. This unit develops 164 BHP @ 5,200 rpm and 245 Nm of torque @ 4,000 rpm. This engine is paired with a 6-speed automatic gearbox on the Z variant. In the Touring Sport edition, it is available with a 6-speed automatic transmission or a 5-speed manual gearbox. 

According to a media report, Toyota has also added new features to other variants of the Innova Crysta. The GX (base) version gets a rear seat centre arm rest, height adjustable driver's seat and rear air-conditioner vents. The V variant comes with GPS navigation while door ajar warning for all doors is now available on all variants.

Toyota Innova Crysta petrol spotted at dealer stockyard

The upcoming Toyota Innova Crysta petrol has been spotted at a dealer stockyard. Toyota is rumoured to be gearing up to launch the MPV next week. Recent media reports have suggested that Toyota dealers across the country have already started accepting bookings for the car.

The Toyota Innova Crysta was launched in India in May 2016 with two diesel engine options - a 2.4-litre unit that churns out 148 BHP, and a 2.8-litre mill rated at 172 BHP. This meant that the Innova Crysta could not be sold in the Delhi-NCR region, owing to the Supreme Court's ban on registration of diesel cars with engines larger than 2,000 cc. Moreover, the declining fuel price gap between petrol and diesel has resulted in a shift in Indian customer preferences towards petrol cars.

This has prompted Toyota to launch a petrol variant for the Innova Crysta. Earlier reports have confirmed that the petrol Crysta will be powered by a 2.7-litre, four-cylinder, dual VVT-i engine. It will be available with a 6-speed manual as well as automatic option. This powerplant is expected to develop around 162 BHP and 245 Nm of torque.

Toyota Innova Crysta Petrol to launch next month

When Toyota launched the Innova Crysta in India with only diesel engine options, the move was widely questioned as the market is currently showcasing inclination towards petrol powered cars. Moreover, the Diesel car ban applicable in Delhi-NCR ensured that the Innova Crysta couldn't be sold there. But now, Toyota India seems to have addressed this flaw, as advertisements released by the automaker now suggest that the Innova Crysta Petrol will be launched in India in the first week of August.

The Innova Crysta petrol will most likely be powered by a 2.7-litre four-cylinder Dual VVT-i petrol engine that churns out 164 BHP and 245 Nm of torque. This engine will be offered with two transmission options: a 5-speed manual and a 6-speed automatic.

Toyota will launch the Innova Crysta petrol in two variants, with each of them getting the manual or automatic transmission option. Prices of the Innova Crysta petrol are expected to undercut its diesel counterpart by around Rs. 50,000.
