Maruti Suzuki, India’s largest car manufacturer, has ventured into the premium MPV segment with the Innova Hycross-based Invicto. The all-new Maruti Suzuki Invicto has been launched in India at a starting price of Rs 24.79 lakh, ex-showroom. This is the eighth product to be sold via the company’s Nexa dealerships. Here’s how the new Maruti Suzuki Invicto fares against the Toyota Innova Hycross in a specification-based comparison.

The Maruti Invicto and Toyota Innova Hycross share mechanicals with each other. But, while the Innova Hycross gets a 2.0-litre naturally-aspirated petrol and a 2.0-litre hybrid unit, the Invicto gets the latter only. It features a 2.0-litre four-cylinder hybrid petrol unit paired with an electric motor. The combined output of this powertrain is 183 bhp and it comes mated to an e-CVT.

Maruti Suzuki Invicto vs Toyota Innova Hycross: Design and features
The Invicto is a re-badged version of the Innova Hycross. However, in terms of design, there are some minor updates, including a re-designed grille, new alloys, etc. On the inside, this premium MPV comes loaded with a host of features such as a 10.1-inch touchscreen infotainment system with Android Auto & Apple CarPlay connectivity, a panoramic sunroof, ambient lighting, six airbags, etc. But, it misses out on ADAS (Advanced Driver Assistance Systems) which Toyota does offer on the Innova Hycross.  Â
