₹21,01,408 to ₹33,06,498 on the road

Where that range comes from

Every price in the table is ex-showroom, the figure before road tax, registration and the rest of it. Road tax is set by the state you register in rather than by the maker, so what you actually hand over moves with where you live.

The two ends of that range differ in two ways at once: the bottom is the cheapest variant in the state that taxes it least, and the top is the dearest variant in the state that taxes it most.

Hold the variant still and only the geography moves: the GX Diesel MT comes to ₹21,01,408 in Itanagar and ₹23,95,644 in Bengaluru, a difference of ₹2,94,236 on the identical car. You register where you live, so read that as a reason to check the quote you were given, not as somewhere cheaper to buy.

Comprehensive own-damage cover sits on top of all of it. That has been market-priced since 2007 and moves with the insurer and your no-claim bonus, so budget for it from real quotes rather than from any number here.

What owners and testers say

Independent evidence only. Never the maker’s own marketing.

+ Reliability that holds up over a decade rather than a warranty period: owners report engines still tight past 1.4 lakh km+ Resale among the strongest of any mass-market car sold here+ Parts are stocked everywhere and most jobs are routine at a Toyota workshop, which matters outside the big cities− No Bharat NCAP or Global NCAP rating exists for the India-spec car, so its crash performance is unmeasured. The five star result widely quoted for it is the Indonesian car tested by ASEAN NCAP, which had seven airbags− The GX, the volume trim, has three airbags where much cheaper cars now come with six as standard− Diesel and manual only in the current range, so there is no automatic and no petrol option

2 more things owners and testers say

+ Running costs are predictable, with few surprises beyond the usual wear items− Its own popularity works against you as a buyer: used examples stay expensive precisely because everyone wants one

Why there is no overall score

Scores are our reading of published, independent evidence, not the manufacturer's, and we deliberately publish no single overall rating: a car can be excellent on safety and weak on resale, and one number would hide that. How we score, and how makers can respond.
