Toyota has silently introduced a more affordable version of the Glanza, the G MT priced at Rs 6.98 lakh. It is powered by a 1.2-litre (83PS/113Nm) petrol engine while the earlier G MT base variant equipped with a mild-hybrid system is powered by a 1.2-litre (89PS/113Nm) unit. The new variant is priced the same as the Maruti Baleno’s Zeta variant (Rs 6.98 lakh) — the one it’s based on. Let’s look at the price table.

As it's based on the Maruti Baleno, both the Glanza’s petrol engines are BS6 compliant and are paired with a 5-speed manual gearbox as standard. The K12M engine-equipped variants are available with a CVT option as well.
The newly introduced Toyota Glanza G MT has the same features as the corresponding mild-hybrid equipped variant of the hatchback. Highlights include LED projector headlamps, dual tone alloy wheels, a 7-inch touchscreen infotainment system with Android Auto and Apple CarPlay, automatic climate control, and push-button start/stop among others.

The Toyota Glanza offers a 3 year/1 lakh km warranty, which is better than its donor car, the Maruti Baleno’s 2 year/40,000km. After the Glanza, Maruti Suzuki will also supply Toyota with the Ertiga and the Ciaz. The two manufacturers will also be working on hybridisation and electrification processes.
