The new Vellfire is based on Toyota's TNGA-K platform. The new MPV looks sleeker and more sporty than the previous model sold here, with a big front grille resembling a Lexus, better-integrated headlights with the bonnet, and DRLs placed below it.
In profile, the Vellfire's glasshouse is now a single unit with a noticeable kink and blacked-out pillars with a chrome outline. It gets a very familiar-looking V-shaped tail-lamp enclosure with ample chrome trim, noticeable Vellfire badging, and a large Toyota logo in the centre.

The India-spec Vellfire comes with a hybrid powertrain. It will get a 2.5 litre, four-cylinder petrol-hybrid unit that produces 250PS and 240 Nm of torque and mated to an e-CVT. Toyota claims that the Vellfire will return a healthy 19.28kmpl.
