Toyota Innova HyCross ZX and ZX(O) Bookings Reopened

After months, Toyota Kirloskar Motor has re-opened the bookings for the Innova HyCross’ ZX and ZX(O) variants. The company has halted the booking for these two top-spec variants twice, and that too, since the inception of this MUV in November 2022. 

In April 2023, that was the first time when the automaker stopped the bookings of these two variants, owing to supply chain issues. The same was witnessed in May 2024, but the Japanese company did not specify the reason behind the second halt. 

Toyota is focusing on the optimisation of the production process so that their customers don’t face these issues and can seamlessly book this popular MPV, which can be booked for Rs 50,000. 

Sabari Manohar, Vice President of Sales-Service-Used Car Business at Toyota Kirloskar Motor, stated, “We are thrilled to announce the re-opening of booking for top-end grades of the Innova Hycross, ZX and ZX (O), effective August 1st, 2024. This reflects our commitment to provide access to our varied product choices to cater to customer desires. The Innova Hycross has become a highly sought-after model, appreciated for its unmatched comfort and convenience. With its advanced technology, strong hybrid electric system, and robust design, the Innova Hycross has set new benchmarks in the market. We are truly humbled by the strong acceptance and confidence entrusted by our customers in this product.” 

“We deeply appreciate the patience of our valued customers during the temporary halt period and regret any inconvenience. We are confident that the re-opening of the bookings of the Innova Hycross top-end grades will further enrich our customers' driving experiences and fulfil their mobility aspirations,” he added.
