Toyota Kirloskar Motor has enhanced the safety of its popular MPV, Rumion, by making 6 airbags standard across all models. This move significantly boosts passenger protection and positions the Rumion as one of the safest MPVs in its segment.
Pricing and Variants
The Toyota Rumion is priced between ₹10.44 lakh and ₹13.62 lakh (ex-showroom). It is a rebadged version of the Maruti Suzuki Ertiga and has been performing well alongside other Toyota-Maruti collaborative products like the Glanza and Hyryder.

103 HP of maximum power

136.8 Nm of peak torque
Transmission options:

Why It Stands Out
The upgrade to six airbags across all trims makes the Toyota Rumion more appealing to families looking for a safe, spacious, and fuel-efficient MPV. With competitive pricing and versatile fuel options, it competes strongly against vehicles like the Maruti Suzuki Ertiga and Kia Carens while offering Toyota’s trusted after-sales service.
