According to reports,Toyota Kirloskar Motor is also preparing to broaden its portfolio with a fresh mix of SUVs and MPVs offered across multiple powertrains. What makes this expansion noteworthy is that most of the upcoming models will be developed in-house by Toyota, rather than relying on badge-engineered Maruti Suzuki products. The partnership with Maruti Suzuki has already yielded popular models such as the Glanza, Hyryder, Rumion, and Taisor.
