Toyota Vellfire
The Toyota Vellfire is the Japanese brand’s flagship MPV in India. It’s based on Toyota’s modular TNGA-K platform, which also underpins the more luxurious Lexus LM. In India, the Toyota Vellfire is priced between Rs 1.20 crore and Rs 1.30 crore (ex-showroom). The only combustion-engine rival of the Vellfire in India is the Mercedes-Benz V-Class, with the likes of the upcoming Denza D9 likely to be its all-electric alternative. Customers wanting more luxury can look at the Vellfire’s Lexus LM cousin.
In terms of power, the Toyota Vellfire’s 2.5-litre four-cylinder petrol-hybrid setup offers 193hp and 240Nm of torque. This is routed through a CVT (continuously variable transmission) to the front wheels (FWD). The Vellfire isn’t for the performance-minded individual, but fits the bill for those who care more about comfort and efficiency. On the latter front, the Toyota Vellfire has a claimed mileage of 19.28kpl.
As for its design, the front fascia of the Vellfire has a large and intimidating-looking grille finished in chrome. The droopy side intakes are also chrome garnished, while the sleek elements at the front include the LED headlamps with LED DRLs and sequential turn indicators. The slab-faced side profile features chrome garnish along the windowline and on the door handles, 19-inch alloy wheels and fixed side steps. The upright rear gets a roof spoiler, wrap-around LED tail lights, and a droop-down rear design with more shiny trim.
The spacious interior of the Toyota Vellfire usually accommodates six occupants, with individual captain seats for the second row providing extended legrests and individual armrests. These sliding seats also come with detachable screens positioned on their central armrests. Meanwhile, the third-row seats are spacious enough for adults as well, especially over short journeys. Access to the rear luggage space is via the powered tailgate, while the rear seats can be tucked away for even more room.

Toyota Vellfire price & variants
The Toyota Vellfire is offered in only two trim levels in India; there’s the Hi and the top-spec VIP-Executive Lounge. A 2.5-litre petrol-hybrid powertrain and a CVT gearbox are common to both, so the final choice comes down to the level of opulence a buyer is seeking in the second-row. Here's how they can be differentiated:
Hi: The Hi gets 19-inch dual-tone alloy wheels, 3-lens LED headlamps with DRLs, a 14-inch touchscreen paired with a 15-speaker JBL audio system, wireless Apple CarPlay & Android Auto, a digital instrument cluster, powered sliding rear doors, powered sunblinds and second-row captain seats with ottoman-style leg rests, heating, ventilation and massage functions. Safety kit includes an auto-dimming IRVM, 6 airbags, ADAS, a 360-degree camera and stability control as standard across the range. This trim is for buyers who want the full Vellfire experience and second-row comfort without paying for the last few additional luxury flourishes.
VIP-Executive Lounge: This top-spec trim adds the extra-large lounge-style second-row seats (in Sunset Brown, Neutral Beige or black leather upholstery), independently operable dual sunroofs, a 14-inch fold-down rear entertainment screen, flip-out tray tables with a vanity mirror, and a head-up display. This is the one for buyers who see the Vellfire purely as a rear-seat product and want the most indulgent version of it on offer.
Toyota Vellfire expert review
We like
Peace of mind ownership
Massive cabin offers great space across all three rows
Throne-like middle row seats deliver exceptional comfort
We don't like
Ride comfort and noise insulation should have been better
Efficient but underwhelming powertrain
Overpriced for what it is

You don’t buy an MPV for its looks, but this Vellfire does feel come across as more of a luxury vehicle and less of a high end airport shuttle as the last one did. It’s massive — 5m long, 2m tall — and hard to miss even in a sea of luxury sedans and SUVs. There’s plenty of bling with chrome on the massive six-slat grille and bumpers and a dual-tone look to the 19-inch rims.
9
The real story is inside. The middle row — accessed via powered sliding doors — is the star. Think thrones, not seats: massive, plush, multi-way adjustable, with heating, cooling, massage and legrests. It really is business class on the road.
Even the third row is impressive, with space for three adults and reclining backrests. The luagge area is very flexible, though there’s no provision for a spare tyre.
Cabin quality has taken a leap, with better materials, leather, wood-effect trim, and more padding all around. Storage is generous, but the glovebox is oddly small.
7
The Vellfire is front-wheel-drive only in India and uses a 250hp hybrid setup. It’s great for easy driving but is not a performance machine by any stretch. The eCVT whines under hard acceleration, though it’s whisper-quiet in EV mode.
8
Toyota claims a 19.28kpl mileage figure for the Vellfire. It’s a remarkable figure for a vehicle so large. The Vellfire’s strong hybrid tech that enables EV mode running for long stints is to credit here.
7
Ride quality is good but not Rs 1.5 crore-good. Bumps do creep in and there’s road noise too. Drivers will need to get used to the Vellfire's size. U-turns and tight parkings require careful maneuvering though the big Toyota is easy to pilot at higher speeds.
9
The Vellfire for India comes generously equipped. The 14-inch touchscreen isn’t cutting-edge, but it's slick and packs wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. Physical AC controls are a plus too. Safety includes six airbags, ADAS with lane keep assist, adaptive cruise control, and blind spot monitoring.
Middle row perks? Flip-out tray tables, vanity mirrors, powered sunblinds, dual sunroofs and a roof-mounted entertainment screen controlled via touchscreen armrest remotes. Even the third row gets powered sunshades and AC vents.
5
Starting at Rs1.22 crore (ex-showroom, Delhi), the Vellfire isn’t your average Toyota. But nothing this side of Rs 2 crore can touch it for sheer rear seat comfort. If being chauffeured in utmost comfort is the goal, this is money well spent.
Of course, if you want even more exclusivity, there’s the LM — the Vellfire’s cousin from Lexus, yours for up to Rs 2.6 crore.

Questions you may find useful
What is the best seven-seater MUV to buy right now, with rear seat comfort as the main priority? Options include the Kia Carnival, MG M9, and Toyota Vellfire. The Vellfire seems overpriced with the new pricing, and I am also concerned about MG’s brand image in India. Daily commute is around 180 km every alternate day for real estate work, and around 20 to 30 km on other days. Current garage includes a Range Rover Velar, BMW 330i, Thar Roxx, and Nexon EV Medium Range.
Your daily drive of 180km is a lot of time to spend on the road. You need a car that is efficient yet comfortable. The MG M9, being an EV, would be the cheapest to run, but it's not as comfortable as the other three. The seats and ride quality of this MG car are not as good as the Kia Carnival, which appears to be the most practical option for you, as you get the benefit of diesel efficiency and cost, quality interiors, cosseting seats and good ride comfort.The Toyota Velfire is by far the best of the lot: the cabin feels a notch above the others, the hybrid powertrain delivers ultra-smooth, efficient performance, and reliability is bulletproof. We agree it is overpriced, and it's your call how much you want to spend for that extra bit of comfort.
I currently own a 2020 Toyota Vellfire with ~65,000 km on the clock, and I’ve received an offer for ₹65 lakh. I’m considering selling it to buy the MG M9 EV MPV, which costs ₹75 lakh. My annual usage is just 2,500-3,000 km, mostly intercity trips to Chennai, Bangalore, etc. Would you advise me to sell the Vellfire and switch to the MG M9 EV, considering costs, depreciation, and suitability?
It really depends on why you want to sell the Toyota Vellfire, because moving to the MG M9 would not seem like a big upgrade. The Vellfire is very comfy and well-equipped, as is the M9; thus, buying the MG car would feel more like a lateral move than a step up in this regard. Moreover, a mileage of 65000 km on your car isn't a lot at all, especially for a Toyota car. Thus, you could keep the Vellfire, assuming there are no other issues with it. Where the M9 MPV would be feel better is with the electric powertrain, which would give you lower running costs and a refined and silent drive.
I am looking to purchase a vehicle worth around ₹1.5 crore. What are the best options in the market with good after-sales service?
There are plenty of options available within your budget of Rs 1.5 crore from brands such as Mercedes-Benz, BMW, Porsche, Lexus, Land Rover and Maserati. However, since after-sales support is a key priority for you, we would recommend opting for Mercedes-Benz and BMW cars. These manufacturers have the widest service footprint among luxury carmakers, and since the majority of their products are locally assembled, parts are in ready supply.From Mercedes's line-up, we suggest that you consider the GLS from the ICE line-up or the electric EQS SUV. The best options from BMW for the money are the X7 and the all-electric iX. You could also consider the Toyota Vellfire. It's a supremely comfortable MPV with Toyota's bulletproof reliability.
Hi. I want to buy a chauffeur-driven car for my aged parents. Comfort being the priority, which car would you advise between ₹1.25 and ₹1.75 crore?
Since the car is for your elderly parents, the car should not be either too low or too high off the ground, for better ingress and egress. There are some incredibly comfortable sedans that might not be suitable for this reason, while there are some SUVs that are too high off the ground.Among the SUVs, a suitable option would be the Lexus RX, which is incredibly luxurious, comfortable, refined and rather unique, and crucially quite easy to get in and out of.If you want a more left-field option and don't mind a larger vehicle, the Toyota Vellfire is a superb option, combining the space and practicality of an SUV with the comfort and ease of use of a sedan. Your parents will enjoy the luxurious business-class chairs, comfy ride quality and lounge-like interior. Plus, its relatively low ride height and sliding doors make getting in and out a breeze.
Which is the most comfortable 5 or 6 seater with the best ride quality and good reclining rear seats? Budget is not a limitation.
If budget is not a limitation, then the best 5-6 seater will have to be a three-row luxury MPV, as luxury sedans are fundamentally designed for four people, and three-row luxury SUVs have compromised third row comfort.For 5-6 people, the Toyota Velfire is the most comfortable, as even the third row has good space all around and comfy seats that are almost on par with the second row. You get lots of features and storage space, which makes it like a lounge on wheels. But at Rs. 1.58 to 1.7 crore (on-road Mumbai), it is very expensive.
