Toyota has released the teaser images of the upcoming 2022 Toyota Glanza premium hatchback. From the teaser images, it is clear that the upcoming 2022 Toyota Glanza is essentially a rebadged version of the recently launched 2022 Maruti Suzuki Baleno.
However, unlike the Maruti Suzuki Baleno which is offered in four trim levels, we expect Toyota to offer the new 2022 Glanza in just two trim levels. Apart from that, the new 2022 Toyota Glanza will be the most-affordable Toyota product in India when launched in the country.
At present, the production of the 2022 Maruti Suzuki Baleno takes place at Maruti Suzuki’s state-of-the-art manufacturing facility in Gujarat, so it is obvious that the upcoming Toyota Glanza is also manufactured at the same manufacturing plant.
As the teaser of the new Toyota Glanza is out and the new updated Maruti Suzuki Baleno has been launched, it is safe to expect Toyota to launch the new 2022 Glanza before the end of March 2022 in the Indian automobile market.
Speaking about the new 2022 Toyota Glanza, it is absolutely safe to expect the upcoming premium hatchback from Toyota to be identical to the 2022 Maruti Suzuki Baleno.
This means the new Toyota Glanza will feature the exact same design as the new Maruti Suzuki Baleno albeit with a different brand logo and nameplate.
Speaking about the changes with respect to the outgoing model, the new 2022 Toyota Glanza will get a redesigned front grille, a pair of new LED headlamps, new L-shaped taillamps, redesigned front bumper, new fog lamps, reprofiled rear bumper, and many more.
On the inside, the new 2022 Toyota Glanza will also feature the new dashboard and interior layout carried from the 2022 Maruti Suzuki Baleno. This means the new 2022 Toyota Glanza will come with updated features such as the new 9.0-inch touchscreen infotainment unit with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto.
In addition to these upgrades over the current model, the new 2022 Toyota Glanza also comes equipped with features such as revised instrument console, wireless charging pad, flat-bottom steering wheel, connected-car tech, heads-up display,and many more.
A point worth mentioning is that the new 2022 Baleno hatchback weighs around 50-70 kgs heavier than its predecessor. So as per the changes, it is safe to expect the new 2022 Glanza to sport an identical gain in weight compared to its predecessor.
Apart from that, the upcoming Toyota Glanza will also come with safety features such as 6 airbags, Hill-Hold Assist, ABS, EBD, reverse parking sensors, ESP, ISOFIX anchoring points and a few more.
Since the 2022 Maruti Suzuki Baleno is offered with just one engine option, expect the 2022 Glanza to offer the same.
This means the 2022 Toyota Glanza will be powered by the same 1.2-litre naturally-aspirated petrol engine with a 12-volt mild-hybrid system. In the 2022 Maruti Suzuki Baleno, this engine produces 89bhp of peak power and 113Nm of peak torque.
Since the new Maruti Suzuki Baleno is offered with a 5-speed manual gearbox and an AMT gearbox, expect the same gearbox options in the new updated Toyota Glanza as well.
In addition to all these changes, expect a slight jump in the pricing of the new 2022 Toyota Glanza when it reaches the Indian automobile market.
