Toyota Rumion, Seven-Seat Minivan, Hits The Market For R$ 61,000

New Toyota Rumion, Seven-Seat Minivan from Japanese Manufacturer, Arrives in Market for R$ 61 Thousand and Gains Highlights for Its Efficiency and Power.

The Toyota recently announced the launch of the Toyota Rumion in the Indian market, a seven-seat minivan that could rival the Chevrolet Spin in Brazil, if the model were launched in the national market. However, this seems somewhat unlikely and so far there is nothing pointing to the arrival of the seven-seat minivan here.

Seven-Seat Car Arrives in Market for Around R$ 61 Thousand

Available in six different versions, the Toyota Rumion makes up the range of vehicles aimed at emerging countries from the Japanese manufacturer. In fact, the project is developed in partnership with Maruti Suzuki, which also has a version of the seven-seat minivan.

In India, prices range from around R$ 61,300 to R$ 81,500 in direct conversion. If sold in Brazil, the Toyota Rumion would have much higher values, likely exceeding R$ 110 thousand.
