Toyota Innova Hycross Facelift Spotted Testing in India Ahead of 2027 LaunchPreviousNext

Toyota has begun testing a facelifted version of the Innova Hycross in India, likely slated for a 2027 launch. Spy shots reveal a redesigned front fascia with slimmer headlights, a squarer grille, and updated bumpers, resembling changes seen on the Hilux and Fortuner. The side profile and alloy wheels remain largely unchanged, while the rear may feature new LED tail-lamps and subtle styling updates. Interior details are not yet available, but updates to upholstery and cabin features are anticipated.
