A brand which is known for its reliability, which is said to be the other name of power and strength when it comes to their models, which is the maker of masculine Innova, is now all set to hit the floor of upcoming Auto Expo 2014 with its two powerful cars in hatchback and sedan category. The excitement among people is obvious; it’s a brand which offers such models which said to be for the lifetime. Yes, it’s the famous brand Toyota, which we are here talking about. It’s running very successfully not only in India but worldwide. And the two lucky models which are going to represent this trustworthy brand in upcoming Auto Expo are Toyota Etios Cross hatchback and New Toyota Corolla sedan.
1. Toyota Etios Cross (hatchback)
Price:
Being a sportier version of Toyota Liva, it is expected to carry the price range of around 8-9 lakhs which is obviously costlier than its predecessor Liva.
Engine details:
Reportedly, the expected engines in this hatchback model are 1.4 liter D-4D diesel and 1.5 liter DOHC petrol which tends to develop 67.1bhp and 88.8bhp as max power respectively.
Main Rivals in India:
VW Cross Polo and Fiat Punto Cross etc
2. New Toyota Corolla (mid-size sedan)
Price:
The all new Corolla is looking much refreshing and modified than its predecessor ongoing Corolla Altis. It will cost around 19-20.5 lakhs as per its global price range.
Engine details:
While its interior and exterior have been improved with this new model, the mechanical powers are going to be the same like its predecessor which is not so cool. The reason is Indian customers don’t find the armed engine of Corolla Altis appropriate for it as it’s a much larger car which could tolerate a much powerful engine.
The New Toyota Corolla is going to run with the same fuel units like Corolla Altis which is a 1.8 liter dual VVTi petrol and 1.4 liter D-4D diesel churning out the max power of 138bhp and 87.2bhp respectively.
Though, these all specs figures are tentative and might be changed by the launch.
Main Rivals in India:
Hyundai Elantra and Chevrolet Cruze etc
