Among these colors, the first five are those that are available with the existing Toyota Glanza, and the last two are the options that are new. These two new color options make this car more stunning; anyone who is making a purchase decision should definitely think of these two options.

Level 2 ADAS suite offered.

The Toyota says that the Toyota Glanza facelift’s top-end variant V(O) is equipped with the Level 2 Advanced Driving Assistant system suite featuring Adaptive Cruise Control, Automatic Emergency Braking, Lane Keep Assist, and High Beam Assist. These features are set to significantly improve the driving experience for Glanza drivers.

Level 2 ADAS is counted as safety features. Other safety goodies that the Toyota has introduced for this recently launched car are a 360-degree camera and a tire pressure monitoring system. These are features that ensure better safety because the first one gives a surround view and the latter alerts when tire pressure goes down.

The cabin is now more premium.

For the first time, the Toyota has positioned the Toyota Glanza with ventilated front seats. This feature is set to provide more comfort for co-passengers and drivers, especially during Indian summer. Another notable additional inside the cabin is a wireless smartphone charging pad, which helps with charging the computable phone without plugging.

Automatic climate control, dedicated rear AC vents, and other features are available for comfort and convenience.

New three-cylinder engine available.

The Toyota Glanza facelift features a 1.2-liter Z12E, a 3-cylinder naturally aspirated petrol-powered internal combustion engine. Regarding the powertrain, Toyota has confirmed that both the five-speed manual and five-speed automated manual gearboxes are available, but depending on fuel, they perform differently.

The pure-petrol version delivers 83 hp and 112 Nm, and the CNG-petrol trim puts out 70 hp and 102 Nm on CNG mode, but on petrol mode, it cranks the same as the pure-petrol, as per the Toyota. Officially revealing also confirms that both powertrain options are available with a front-wheel-drive drivetrain.

The Toyota says that with the MT and AMT, the pure-petrol gives ARAI-certified mileage of 23.80 km/l and 24.77 km/l, respectively, and the CNG-petrol version on CNG mode gives the claimed fuel efficiency of 33.61 km/kg with the MT and 34.47 km/kg with the AMT. The rear-world may vary.
