A £10k electric car with a 100-mile range would surely be a sales success

In a bid to boost the sales of its newest offering, Toyota has now made the Glanza, even more, cheaper and the price is down by Rs 24,000.

The price range of Toyota Glanza now starts at Rs 6.97 Lakhs (ex-showroom Delhi), courtesy, a new base-spec variant. Earlier, the base variant started at Rs 7.21 Lakhs, for the G MT mild-hybrid trim.

The new variant is the G MT without the mild-hybrid technology. Comparing it to the mild-hybrid variant, it gets the exact same features list. That suggests that Rs 24,000 is just for mild-hybrid technology.

As we all know, Glanza is a rebadged version of the Baleno and the G MT is basically the Zeta MT of Baleno. In case of the latter, the same variant is priced at Rs 6.97 Lakhs as well.

Safety features include rear parking sensors, dual front airbags, ABS with EBD and Brake Assist, Front Fog Lamps, Electrochromic IRVM, Rear Parking Sensors and Speed Alert System.

Under the hood, is the same 1.2 Litre K12B petrol engine from the Baleno. The engine produces 90 BHP and 113 Nm of peak torque on the mild-hybrid variant, and 83 BHP on rest of the variants. A 5-speed manual gearbox and CVT are offered.
