Toyota Kirloskar Motor (TKM) has announced a significant product update for its Glanza hatchback, aiming to consolidate its position in India’s competitive premium hatchback segment. The move comes at a time when consumer preferences are shifting toward vehicles offering enhanced safety and personalization.
All variants of the Toyota Glanza will now feature six airbags as standard—an upgrade likely to appeal to safety-conscious urban buyers. Alongside this, TKM has rolled out a limited-time ‘Prestige Package’—available till July 31, 2025—which includes chrome-styled accessories, illuminated door sills, rear lamp garnishes, and a rear skid plate. These value additions are designed to increase buyer appeal without drastically impacting cost.
The Glanza, powered by a 1.2-litre K-Series petrol engine, delivers strong mileage figures (22.94 km/l for AMT and 30.61 km/kg for CNG) and is equipped with segment-leading features such as a 360-degree camera and Toyota i-Connect technology. Where young professionals and nuclear families are increasingly seeking vehicles that blend reliability, efficiency, and premium features, Toyota’s strategy is expected to pay off. Dealers anticipate higher footfall and conversion rates, driven by the upgraded safety and styling appeal of the Glanza.
The updated Glanza starts at ₹6.90 lakh (ex-showroom).
