Toyota Innova Hycross
Another Toyota that one can acquire for a price of Rs 19.67 to 30.26 lakh (ex-showroom), is the Innova Hycross. It is big, gets SUV design cues to appeal to us more, has a long list of features, and, most importantly, comes with Toyota’s hybrid powertrain. This sees to it that it is tremendously fuel-efficient. Read more about it here.
Jeep Compass Trailhawk
With the Compass Trailhawk, you have a competent road runner, an excellent off-roader, and a modern, if snug, interior. The sheer amount of things that you get in a small frame and a Rs 30.72 lakh, ex-showroom, price tag definitely makes the Trailhawk worth the premium you’ll pay for it. Read about it here.
