Pictures of the all-new Toyota Innova for Indonesia surfaced on the internet a while ago, followed by the company officially teasing the next-gen MPV ahead of its November 23, 2015 global unveil. The leaked brochure scans revealed complete details of the new Innova’s styling, which is a vast difference from the current model's, both on the interior and exterior.

The brochure also revealed details of the next-gen Innova’s dimensions and engine details. The 2016 Innova is 4,735mm long, 1,830mm wide and 1,795mm high, this means it is 180mm longer, 60mm wider and 45mm taller than the current model. The wheelbase, however, is the same at 2,750mm.
