Iconic Innova Crysta Discontinued by 2027: CAFE 3 Norms Force Toyota's Hybrid Shift

• Toyota Innova Crysta will be discontinued from the market by March 2027.
• The decision is driven by upcoming stringent CAFE 3 regulations, which penalize high fuel consumption.
• Toyota is shifting its focus to petrol hybrids, like the Innova Hycross, to earn "super credits" and meet CO2 targets.
• Diesel MPVs like Crysta contribute to increased fuel consumption, making compliance difficult for Toyota's fleet.
• Crysta was temporarily removed, then reintroduced with a manual diesel engine due to Hycross's long waiting periods and semiconductor shortages.

Why It Matters: Toyota discontinues Innova Crysta by 2027, shifting to hybrids to meet strict CAFE 3 norms.
