Toyota Rumion variant-wise prices
The new E trim is available only with a petrol-manual configuration
While the new E variant has lowered the Rumion’s starting price by Rs 95,000, the prices of the other variants are the same as before.
Toyota Rumion E trim: What does it get?
Gets a barebones feature list that does not include an entertainment system
The new base-spec E trim offers a basic feature suite including projector halogen headlights, LED tail-lights, all four power windows, 6 airbags, hill-hold assist and rear parking sensors. It misses out on AC vents for the rear passengers, powered outside rearview mirrors (ORVMs), a manually adjustable inside rearview mirror (IRVM) and even a basic entertainment system with speakers, all of which are available in the one-above-the-base S trim.
The new E trim comes with a 103hp 1.5-litre naturally aspirated petrol engine mated to a 5-speed manual transmission. This is the only trim to lack an automatic transmission option, and it does not offer a CNG variant either.
The Toyota Rumion locks horns with the Maruti Ertiga, Maruti XL6, Kia Carens and Kia Carens Clavis.
Prices are ex-showroom, India.
