Since its launch in 2016, the Toyota Innova Crysta has always been a bit pricey! And the BS6 switchover has made it even more so, for the large capacity diesel engine has to incorporate an SCR (Selective Catalytic Reduction) exhaust gas treatment system. So, to keep its price in check, Toyota has replaced the larger, more expensive 2.8-litre engine in the diesel automatic model with the 2.4-litre oil burner – which has now been mated to the same six-speed torque converter automatic transmission. On paper, this engine develops 25bhp less, with a peak power output of 147bhp at 3,400rpm, in comparison to the 2.8’s 172bhp at 3,400rpm. The peak torque, meanwhile, has been upped by 17Nm from that of the manual 2.4. So, with the 2.4 mated to an automatic transmission, you get the same 360Nm as the 2.8, but now its spread over a narrower 1,400 – 2,600rpm range, in comparison to that of the 2.8. So, the 2.4-litre motor offers more refinement, but what about its performance? Find out here.
