Same money, which car?
Take ₹28.61L to both showrooms and you come out with the Invicto Alpha+ 7S at ₹28.61L or the Innova Hycross VX 8S at ₹26.81L, the Innova Hycross leaving ₹1.80L of that in your pocket.
Our take
The real reason to pay ₹1.80L more for the Invicto Alpha+ 7S: panoramic sunroof and second-row captain seats. The useful extras on top: touchscreen (10.1" against 8") and wireless CarPlay / Android Auto. At that price, we would stretch.
- Also on the Invicto Alpha+ 7S: dual-zone climate control, 8-way powered driver seat, driver seat memory and wireless phone charger
- Going to the Invicto Alpha+ 7S, you give up all-wheel disc brakes, headlamps (Bi-LED projector against LED projector) and driver display (7" digital against Semi-digital), which the Innova Hycross VX 8S keeps
- Choose the Toyota Innova Hycross VX 8S if
- You would rather keep the ₹1.80L than pay for kit you will not miss
- Choose the Maruti Suzuki Invicto Alpha+ 7S if
- You will do long stints in this car and want the daily comforts
