Toyota India is all set to launch the Vellfire premium MPV on February 26. It’s Toyota’s answer to the uber-luxurious Mercedes-Benz V-Class. Bookings for Toyota’s premium MPV are underway at select dealerships and it’s expected to be priced from Rs 80 lakh (ex-showroom).

As with any luxury MPV, the Vellfire’s main highlight is its middle-row experience. Open the electric sliding rear doors and occupants are pampered with two thrones that come with functions like tray tables, an electronically operated footrest as well as heated and ventilated functions. These seats can be rotated to face the third-row occupants as well. Other highlights include a centrally mounted screen to watch your favourite movies.

The dashboard of the Vellfire comes with a neat and simple layout. It also comes packed with features like a touchscreen infotainment system, climate control, cruise control, keyless entry with push-button start, ambient lighting, a wireless phone charger, powered front seats as well as a powered tailgate.

Safety features include seven airbags, ABS with EBD, electronic stability control, a rearview camera, front and rear parking sensors as well as an electric parking brake with auto-hold function.

Powering the Vellfire is a 2.5-litre petrol-hybrid motor that develops 180PS of power and 235Nm of torque. Power is sent to all four wheels via a CVT. It remains to be seen how the Vellfire drives when pitched against the diesel-only Mercedes-Benz V-Class. Stay tuned to ZigWheels for a full-fledged comparison test.
