Toyota India has announced that it will launch the new Toyota Glanza hatchback in India on March 15. Like earlier, the GLanza will be based on the Maruti Suzuki Baleno. The Baleno has just been heavily reworked and the new changes can be expected on the Toyota Glanza as well. The new Glanza start off a strong push by Toyota for the Indian market which will see a slew of models being launched over the next two years.

The teaser image suggests that this time around there will be greater visual differentiation between the Toyota Glanza and Maruti Suzuki Baleno. Visible is a new Toyota-themed grille quite similar to the international-spec Yaris, as well as a large and wide airdam with chrome highlights. The alloy wheel design is also different from the new Baleno. Changes to the rear should be limited to a mildly different bumper.

A teaser video on the Toyota India website suggests the 2022 Toyota Glanza will get the new 9.0-inch Smartplay Pro touchscreen infotainment along with the new dash layout. The standard climate control, as well as the head-up display from the Baleno, can also be expected, as well as cruise control and auto-dimming mirrors. Also expected are the six airbags and other safety features.

The 2022 Glanza will get the same 1.2-litre DualJet petrol motor as in the new Baleno, which puts out 90PS and 113 Nm. This should pair with a five-speed manual and AMT. The fuel efficiency figure should also remain very similar to the Baleno, so expect 22.35 kmpl for the MT and 22.94 kmpl for the AMT.

2022 Toyota Glanza expected price, rivals

The 2022 Toyota Glanza should be priced similarly to the Maruti Suzuki Baleno, but like before may come in only the higher variants. So expect prices to range between Rs 7.15 lakh and Rs 9.5 lakh. The Glanza will compete with the likes of the Hyundai i20, Honda Jazz, Tata Altroz and Maruti Suzuki Baleno.
