Toyota Mandaue South, Cebu officially launched the second-generation Toyota Innova on Thursday at its dealership along Ouano Avenue at the North Reclamation Area in Mandaue City.

The all-new Innova is Toyota’s entry in the hot-selling multipurpose vehicle (MPV) segment.

The new version of the popular MPV that was first launched in 2004 features a totally new look both inside and out that gives it a more premium feel.

Highlights of the Innova include LED headlamps with daytime running lights in the top V variant, and adjustable ambient mood lighting integrated into the headline in the cabins of the G and V models.

The interior on the top G and V variants also feature premium brownish fabrics while the dashboard has become more classy with the presence of HD multi-information display, capacitive touch screen audio with navigation, built-in cooler box and push start button. Seat-back tables are also available in the G and V variants.

The Innova will be available in either a 2.8-liter diesel engine that produces 171 ps and 360 Nm or a 2.0-liter gasoline engine that puts out 136ps and 183 Nm.

The Innova is part of Toyota’s Innovative International Multi-purpose Vehicle (IMV) program together with the Toyota Hilux pickup truck and the Fortuner SUV, both of which also recently released all-new versions.
