Exterior highlights of the Toyota Innova Zenix

On the outside, it is identical to the India-spec Hycross with a similar front fascia, sweptback LED headlights, LED DRLs mounted in the lower bumper, sleeker air dams, and fog lamps. The MPV rides on 18-inch alloy wheels and gets dual-tone ORVMs, blacked-out B and C pillars, and character lines on the rear door panels leading into the wraparound LED taillamps. At the rear, the shark fin antenna, extended roof spoiler with high-mount stop lamp, rear wiper, and rear bumper with the single exhaust tailpipe make it difficult to tell it apart from the Innova Hycross.

Toyota Zenix variants and colour options

The Toyota Innova Zenix is available in two variants, namely, 2.0 V and 2.0 HEV. Meanwhile, customers can choose from five colour options including Grey Metallic, Platinum White Pearl Mica, Attitude Black Mica, Silver Metallic, and Avant-grade Bronze Metallic.
