Toyota Resumes Dispatch Of Innova Crysta, Hilux and Fortuner – Check Out All Details Here

In recent times, Toyota pushed car enthusiasts to the edge of their seats as it faced a hiccup with the dispatch of some of its popular models in India. These models include the likes of Innova Crysta, Hilux, and Fortuner.

The reason behind this temporary suspension was a discrepancy in power delivery that came to light during the company's internal emissions testing in Japan. However, Toyota has now announced that the suspension has been lifted, confirming that the diesel engines in question comply fully with Indian regulations.

The core of the matter didn't stem from a defect in the diesel engines themselves but was related to a variance during the testing phase. Specifically, the engines were tested using a different Electronic Control Unit (ECU) than the one intended for the production models destined for customer cars.

While this raised questions, it's important to note that vehicles already on the road were deemed completely safe and in compliance with necessary safety and emission standards. Toyota's swift action to pause vehicle dispatch was a precautionary move to thoroughly investigate the implications of the findings.

In response to the issue, a Toyota spokesperson clarified that the discrepancy was related to the "smoothing" of power and torque curves, without any exaggeration of horsepower, torque, or other powertrain-related specifications.

The company emphasized that neither emissions nor vehicle safety were compromised. Toyota is actively engaging with relevant authorities to reaffirm the data used for certifying the affected vehicles, underscoring its commitment to transparency and regulatory compliance.

Furthermore, Toyota reassured customers that the order process for new vehicles would continue unaffected, and for those awaiting delivery, the company promised thorough communication regarding the situation before proceeding with registration and delivery for those opting to receive their vehicles.
