The Interior Sophistication

The Granvia has a very simple design that’s easy to understand and use. Well placed switches, good ergonomics on the steering wheel, adjustable lumbar support for those every detail, to create a spaciously appointed interior to keep a modern family comfortable.

The best thing about the Granvia in the room inside the cabin. There is plenty of room, which is what want with a large family. Luxuriously appointed with leather and woodgrain finishes.

The seats are all adjustable so the so there will be not complains for the kids. Plus all the little extra, like the entertainment system, space in the arms rests and the fold-able tables keep them distracted.

Other of the usual mod-cons include:

  • Sun shades in the rear
  • Heated seating
  • Power windows
  • Air conditioning with climate control
  • Rear seats tip-up for more storage
  • Adjustable Headrest just to name a few…

Not to mention the extra luggage space for families on the go.

Toyota Granvia Power Plant

The Toyota Granvia engine is a 2.8L 4-cylinder diesel engine for both the 6 seater and the 8 seater range. Both models are outputting 130kw @ 3400RPM.

Here are the key specs:

  • Common Rail Direct Injection Diesel Engine
  • Max torque: 450Nm @ 1600-2400rpm
  • Bore x stroke (mm) 92 x 103.60
  • Compression ratio 15.6
  • Fuel economy (8L/100km)
  • Fuel tank capacity (70L)

I guessing you feel the reduction in power for 8 seater. That would be at a disadvantage in terms of weight when compared to the six seater. Especially if the 8 seater where fully loaded.

Granvia Exterior Design

Since the Tarogo, the Granvia has change considerable. Its a new level of quality that has been injected into this people mover.

From the outside, the Granvia resemble more like the Hiace boxy design, however with all the extra bling added to the Granvia, it certainly gives it a strong presence on the road.

On the inside we’ve considered about the comfort for all passengers with a strong powerful engine, and a feeling of security that this car is going to be there for you.

  • Front and rear LED’s and fog, dlr’s + auto levelling front headlamps
