The GX (O) variant sits atop the existing GX model and is available in seven-seat and eight-seat configurations. While Toyota is yet to announce official pricing, we expect it to carry a premium of around Rs 70,000 compared to the GX variant (which is priced between Rs 19.77 lakh and Rs 19.82 lakh).

So, below you will find some of the new additions the GX (O) offer that the GX doesn’t. Let us have a look!

Powertrain and competition

The Innova Hycross GX (O) carries the same 2.0-litre four-cylinder petrol engine producing 173 hp and 209 Nm of torque. This engine is mated to a CVT automatic gearbox and sends power to the front wheels.

It is important to note that the Innova Hycross has no direct competitors in the MPV segment. But popular three-row SUVs like the Mahindra XUV700, Tata Safari and MG Hector Plus face some competition, especially from customers looking for a spacious and well-equipped family car.

Expected starting points and requirements

While Toyota has yet to announce an official launch date for the GX (O), we expect it to hit showrooms soon. With the availability of additional features and the possibility of a slight increase in price, the GX (O) caters to customers who want a premium and well-equipped version of the popular Innova Hycross. Keep an eye out for updates from Toyota on the launch date and pricing for the New Hycross GX (O)!
