Toyota Taisor Overview
How much will it cost me?
The Taisor’s price starts at Rs 7.74 lakh and goes up to Rs 13.04 lakh (ex-showroom Delhi). Compared to the Fronx, the mid-spec variants of the Taisor are slightly more expensive but the top-spec variants are identically priced.
How many variants does the Toyota Taisor have?
You can choose the Taisor from five variants: E, S, S+, G, and V.
Which variant offers the best value for money?
If you are on a tight budget, you can buy the base E variant and personalise it with accessories as needed. However, the S+ is our top recommendation if you opt for the 1.2-litre naturally aspirated petrol engine. If you’re eyeing the Taisor turbopetrol, the G variant offers the best balance of comfort, convenience and safety features.
What kind of features does the Toyota Taisor offer?
The Taisor boasts a feature-rich interior, similar to the Fronx. Highlights include a 9-inch touchscreen infotainment system with wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, automatic climate control, a heads-up display, steering-mounted controls, wireless phone charging, cruise control and a 360-degree camera (on higher variants). However, it lacks a sunroof and ventilated seats, which might be important to some buyers.
Is the Toyota Taisor a spacious car?
The Taisor can seat five adults with ample legroom and kneeroom, though headroom can be a bit tight for anyone over 6 feet tall. All three rear passengers get adjustable headrests and three-point seatbelts, which is definitely a plus. However, there's no rear centre armrest, which could be a good or bad thing depending on how often you have a middle passenger. The boot space, at 308 litres, is smaller compared to other cars in the segment and might require some creative packing for heavy luggage.
What engines and transmissions does the Taisor offer?
The Taisor borrows the Fronx's engine options:
-
1.2-litre naturally aspirated petrol (90PS/113Nm) with a 5-speed manual or a 5-speed AMT. This powertrain combination is available with the E, S and S+ variants.
-
1.0-litre turbo-petrol (100PS/148Nm) with a 5-speed manual or a 6-speed torque converter automatic. This powertrain combination is offered with the G and V variants only.
-
1.2-litre petrol-CNG option (77PS/98.5nm) with a 5-speed manual (offered only in the base E variant).
What mileage can I expect from the Toyota Taisor?
The claimed fuel efficiency varies depending on the engine and transmission you choose.
-
Most fuel efficient: 1.2-litre petrol-CNG (MT) with 28.5 km/kg
-
Least fuel efficient: 1.0-litre turbo-petrol (AT) with 20 kmpl. If you want a turbo that delivers better efficiency, then consider the 1.0-litre turbo-petrol (MT) which returns a claimed 21.5 kmpl
-
The 1.2-litre naturally aspirated petrol (AMT) offers a higher claimed mileage of 22.8 kmpl than the same engine with the manual transmission, which returns a claimed 21.7 kmpl
Does the Toyota Taisor offer enough safety features?
Safety features include up to six airbags, ABS with EBD, electronic stability control, hill hold assist, and a 360-degree camera (on higher variants). However, it is yet to be crash tested by Bharat NCAP.
What colours is the Taisor available in?
The Taisor comes in five monotone shades (Cafe White, Enticing Silver, Sportin Red, Gaming Grey, Lucent Orange) and three dual-tone options with a Midnight Black roof (Sportin Red, Enticing Silver, Cafe White).
We recommend:
-
Lucent Orange for a head-turning presence (also exclusive to the Taisor and not the Fronx)
-
Enticing Silver with a black roof for a sophisticated look.
However, the Taisor misses out on three colour options that are offered only in the Maruti Fronx i.e. Blue, Black, and Brown.
Is the Toyota Taisor worth buying?
If you are confused between the Taisor and Fronx, the price difference in their lower variants is just 20-25k, so the choice boils down to what design you like, personal brand preference and how conveniently located the service centre is. The Taisor also offers better warranty coverage of 3-years/1 lakh km and complimentary RSA (roadside assistance) for 5 years compared to the Fronx’s 2-year/ 40,000km warranty.
The Taisor makes for a practical buy for those who want a spacious, feature-rich interior with comfortable seating, and an enjoyable driving experience. It offers good fuel efficiency, performs well on highways with the 1-litre turbo-petrol variants and is easy to manoeuver in city traffic.
What options can I consider besides the Toyota Taisor?
Apart from the Maruti Suzuki Fronx, the Taisor rivals the Mahindra XUV 3XO, Nissan Magnite, Tata Nexon, Hyundai Venue, Maruti Brezza, Kia Sonet, and Renault Kiger.
The Taisor is Toyota’s sub-4 metre crossover and is essentially a rebadged version of the Maruti Fronx. It is a crossover SUV, which competes with subcompact SUVs such as the Tata Nexon, Kia Sonet, and Mahindra XUV 3XO. The Taisor comes with a sporty design, a host of features and two petrol engine options, including a fun-to-drive turbo-petrol unit.
