Raja, Deputy Managing Director, Toyota Kirloskar Motor, said, “We are happy to close the year end with a series of positive milestones despite the dampening effect on consumer sentiment owing to hike in fuel prices, higher interest rates, increase in insurance premium.”
The Innova Crysta has been a strong selling product for Toyota since its debut in 2016. The company claims that the Innova Crysta MPV has witnessed record growth in sales throughout the year. Apart from this, Toyota’s premium SUV, the Fortuner has also been a considerable contributor to the overall sales.
