As Suzuki launches the facelifted Baleno in India, the twin Toyota Glanza will also follow suit and undergo facelifts and upgrades. The two will share the exterior styling and interior layout. The only difference is the factory logo and the use of a newly designed 1.2-liter naturally aspirated gasoline engine, which has better energy-saving performance. The price of the current Glanza starts from 673,000 rupees, which is about NT$220,000.
