Toyota Innova, since its introduction in our country, has been one of the most popular MPVs. Reasons are many, including the comfort, space and reliability which is synonymous with the Japanese car manufacturer. Over the years, the Innova has kept on getting better and they recently launched the BS6 compliant version of the same. Now, Toyota India has included a couple of more safety features in the Innova Crysta MPV as standard.
Toyota has now included safety features like Hill Start Assist (HSA) and Vehicle Stability Control (VSC) as standard equipment for the BS6 Innova Crysta. Visually though, it remains exactly the same and the changes are only an addition to the MPV currently on sale. Other safety features remain exactly the same and the Innova Crysta continues to be one of the safest offerings in its class, offering driver, front passenger, and driver knee airbags, ABS, EBD with brake assist, reverse parking sensors, speed alert system, and three-point seat belts.

What makes the Crysta even more likeable is the fact that despite the new additions to the safety package, prices remain exactly the same as before.
