Toyota has launched the updated Innova Hycross, sold as the Kijang Innova Zenix in Indonesia, ahead of the India facelift launch scheduled for 26 November 2026. The hybrid range starts at about Rs 24.87 lakh (converted from Indonesian prices) for the G Hybrid and goes up to roughly Rs 32.35 lakh for the top Q Hybrid Modellista. The Indonesian model gets a 12.3-inch touchscreen, a 12.3-inch digital instrument cluster, a 360-degree camera (from V Hybrid upwards), a dual-channel dashcam, and in-car Wi-Fi. The rear seat entertainment system and wireless charger have been removed.

The 1,987cc four-cylinder petrol engine with a 113hp electric motor (combined 186hp) and e-CVT remain unchanged. India-spec versions are expected to share the 12.3-inch screens and dashcam, though some features may be limited to higher trims. A flex-fuel variant is rumoured but not confirmed. Final details on trims, prices and features will be announced at the 26 November launch.
All three outlets report the same facts: the Indonesia launch, the 26 November India date, the new screens, camera, and the unchanged engine. Businesstoday.in and Aaj Tak frame the story as a features preview, emphasising what Indian buyers may gain. Times Now adds a practical buyer advisory and notes which items have been dropped. The coverage is uniform straight reporting with no government angle. The key open question is which Indonesian features make it to India and at what trim level, to be confirmed on 26 November.
