Since the new Maruti Suzuki Baleno has been launched, we expect Toyota to soon launch the new 2022 Glanza in the Indian market. However, unlike the Maruti Suzuki Baleno which is available in 4 trim levels, expect the upcoming 2022 Toyota Glanza hatchback to be offered in just 2 trim levels.

Speaking about the new 2022 Toyota Glanza, expect the latest premium hatchback from Toyota to be identical to the upcoming 2022 Maruti Suzuki Baleno. This means the new 2022 Toyota Glanza will feature the new Maruti Suzuki Baleno's redesigned front grille, LED headlamps, new L-shaped taillamps, front bumper, fog lamps, rear bumper, and many more.

The new 2022 Baleno hatchback weighs around 50-70 kgs heavier than the previous model. So, it is safe to expect the new 2022 Glanza will also see an identical gain in weight compared to the previous model.

Moreover, the 2022 Toyota Glanza will be offered with just one engine option like the new Baleno. This engine is a 1.2-litre naturally-aspirated petrol engine with a 12-volt mild-hybrid system. In the 2022 Maruti Suzuki Baleno, this engine produces 89bhp of peak power and 113Nm of peak torque.

In the new Maruti Suzuki Baleno, the 5-speed manual gearbox remains identical to the previous model. However, the CVT gearbox of the earlier model has been replaced with a 5-speed AMT unit. So, expect the upcoming Toyota Glanza to come with identical changes.

Thoughts About The New 2022 Toyota Glanza

Though Toyota has a very strong sales and service network in India, the brand has been experiencing some decline in sales in recent years. High volume models like Toyota Glanza will help Toyota boost its sales numbers in India. However, it will be great if Toyota adds some changes to the upcoming Glanza to visually differentiate the model from the 2022 Maruti Suzuki Baleno.
