This is it, ladies and gents. This is finally it. Toyota Motor Philippines (TMP) has now officially launched the all-new Toyota Zenix in our market.
For those who’ve been living under a rock, you’re probably wondering what the Zenix is. This is no less than the next-generation Toyota Innova that we reckon many of you have been waiting for—at least judging by how many people keep reading our stories about the all-new Innova.

As we’ve already mentioned multiple times in the past, the all-new Zenix will come with multiple powertrain options. There’s the 2.0-liter purely petrol-powered engine that generates 172hp at 6,600rpm and 205Nm of torque from 4,500-4,900rpm. This powertrain comes mated to a CVT—a first for this model.
In addition to the gas-only option, there’s the hybrid engine that consists of this 2.0-liter mill paired with a 111hp electric motor. The combined system output for this setup is 184hp and 188Nm of torque.
Apart from these new powertrains, the all-new Innova—or Zenix, forgive us—also gets a revamped interior fitted with brown and black leather, new gadgets, and captain seats with Ottomans. Another glaring difference is the now bigger interior. The Zenix sits on a new front-wheel-drive platform, essentially unlocking heaploads of space inside the cabin.
As far as prices go, the all-new Toyota Zenix is priced at P1.67 million for the gas-only variant. The hybrid sells for P1.953 million. Just to be clear, however—TMP will continue to sell the diesel-powered Innova despite the Zenix’s arrival. Anyway, you can check out the full price list below.
