The Toyota Taisor is Toyota’s entry into the fast-growing compact SUV market in India. Based on the Maruti Suzuki Fronx under the Toyota-Suzuki partnership, the Taisor brings Toyota’s trusted reliability with modern styling and efficient engines. Positioned below the Urban Cruiser Hyryder, the Taisor is designed for buyers looking for an affordable, stylish, and feature-loaded compact SUV.
Design and Exterior
The Toyota Taisor features a sporty and urban design with a bold grille, LED headlamps, LED DRLs, and dual-tone alloy wheels. Its coupe-like roofline, muscular bumpers, and LED connected tail lamps give it a stylish road presence. Toyota has also added unique design touches to differentiate it from the Fronx, making it feel more premium.
Engine and Performance
The Taisor is available with two petrol engine options:
- 1.2L K-Series petrol engine with 5-speed manual and AMT options.
- 1.0L turbo-petrol BoosterJet engine with 6-speed manual and automatic.
The turbo engine makes the Taisor fun to drive, while the naturally aspirated version is fuel-efficient for city commutes. Toyota may also introduce a CNG variant in the future for budget-conscious buyers.
Interior and Features
Inside, the Toyota Taisor offers a premium cabin with a 9-inch touchscreen infotainment system, wireless Android Auto and Apple CarPlay, head-up display, and a digital instrument cluster.

Toyota has equipped the Taisor with safety features like six airbags (in higher trims), ABS with EBD, electronic stability program (ESP), hill-hold assist, rear parking sensors, and a reverse camera. Its build quality and Toyota’s brand trust further add to its appeal.
Mileage
The 1.2L petrol variant delivers around 21 km/l, while the 1.0L turbo-petrol variant gives about 20 km/l, making it one of the most fuel-efficient SUVs in its class.
Price in India
The Toyota Taisor is priced between ₹7.8 lakh and ₹12.5 lakh (ex-showroom, India) depending on the variant and engine. With this pricing, it competes directly with the Maruti Fronx, Tata Nexon, Hyundai Venue, and Kia Sonet.
