Step inside and the similarities with the e Vitara become immediately obvious. The dashboard layout, centre console, screen placement and even the switchgear are identical, with the only visible change being the Toyota badge on the steering wheel.
Material quality is good for the segment, though not class-leading. Soft-touch elements are limited, but the plastics feel well-finished and durable, aligning with Toyota’s quest for long-term reliability rather than outright luxury.
The steering wheel itself feels great to hold, but the digital driver’s cluster placement, is very awkward. It sits lower than usual, which initially feels odd, but Toyota and Maruti have clearly positioned it this way to prevent the steering rim from blocking the view of the cluster. While practical, the misaligned look takes some getting used to.
The infotainment screen is not the largest in the segment either, and visually the cabin does not feel as modern or premium as some newer rivals. Overall, the interior is functional and solid but lacks that sense of occasion.
