The Toyota Tarago - sold only in Australia - and the Toyota
Innova - sold only in India - are two similar vehicles from one of the world's
most trusted automakers. In fact, both vehicles are highly regarded by the
critics and well suited to the markets in which they compete.
Take the Tarago to begin with. The vehicle,
like the Innova, is a sporty, four-door 'people mover' with stylish,
aerodynamic lines, a futuristic driver's seat, touch-screen information
console, loads of safety features, and the most appealing feature for those
looking to transport large numbers of people -- seven to eight seats.
Tarago comes in a range of vehicles, from a
four-cylinder GLi and four-cylinder GLX (the GLX includes more bells and
whistles than the GLi) to the six-cylinder versions of both vehicles. This is
in fact one of the most recognizable people mover vehicles in Australia and
also one of the most trusted: most Australian car review sites say the latest
Tarago does not disappoint - the vehicles handles well, and the six-cylinder
engine in particular has been described as providing 'ample acceleration',
which makes for an 'effortless' drive, especially when
overtaking other vehicles.
The Toyota Innova, which is only sold in
India, is built on the same design as the Tarago and offers many identical
features and design specifications. For instance, the Innova holds the same
number of people, features a similar-looking touch-screen console and offers
the same outstanding safety features, including duel SRS airbags, anti-lock
brakes, and a specially-designed 'GOA' body that is engineered to minimize
damage or injuries in the case of an accident. The Innova even features a back
camera display, allowing drivers to more safely and effectively watch their
back while backing out of a parking space or alleyway.
Drivers in India describe the Innova as a
comfortable, smooth ride that is a dream to take on long trips or a morning
commute on the highway. Several sites have also noted how the Innova has only
improved over previous editions, with a more well-apportioned interior in the
recent model, better interior controls, including Bluetooth connectivity and a
flexible interior, with seats that are able to be moved for storage and
transportation of goods, or for transporting people.
If the reviews and design specs are any
indication, both the Innova and the Toyota Tarago will be two more
international success stories for Toyota.
