2022 Toyota Glanza: Test drive & booking experience

I booked the Glanza G manual. I did not go for the top end model because it did not add any distinguishing performance enhancement.

I went for test drive of Glanza in Chennai last week, I must say it was a very good experience. Roads around my place are dug up due to some ongoing water pipeline project and hence got a fair chance to test the suspension. It went very smoothly over the bumpy roads, my family in the back was also pretty satisfied with the ride quality and space it offered. Some of the things I personally loved were:

• Driver seat comfort, especially back support

• Front grill look on Glanza

• Covered engine cabin, it can prevent rats from entering in

• 16 inch wheels (in base model it is 15 inch)

• Dual tone interior (It would be much nicer if they gave full beige)

• The steering/ handling (was smooth as butter)

I booked Glanza G manual, gaming gray the very next day. I did not go for the top model because it did not add any distinguishing performance enhancement.

The ex-showroom price is 8.41 lakh and in Chennai with RTO tax, Toyota protect insurance and extended warranty, the on road price is 9.85 lakh. So with few mandatory accessories like floor mats, boot mat, mud guards and wind visors from showroom and some accessories from outside showroom like dash cam, tyre inflator the car should cost around 10.2 - 10.3 lakhs.

My booking docket was placed on 27-July-22 by the showroom and the waiting period is 60 days on it. However the salesman said there is some chance if any other bookings are cancelled it may be allotted sooner. I believe it will be worth the wait. Will update on further developments regarding this.
