Toyota on Monday unveiled Rumion MPV in the Indian market. The multipurpose vehicle has a starting price of ₹10.29 lakh (ex-showroom) for the S variant having manual transmission. The bookings for this MPV has already begun for the buyers, HT Auto reported.

Earlier this month, this MPV was revealed and marks Toyota's entry into the MPV segment in India. Over the years, the company's Innova has dominated the larger MPV segment. On the other hand, Maruti Suzuki's Ertiga has been the leader in the ₹10-15 lakh price bracket segment.

Remember, Toyota and Suzuki have a global partnership and both the car giants share their models with each other. The models wear the respective badges of the other brand, the HT Auto report stated.

For example, Toyota sells Glanza as an alternative to Maruti Suzuki Baleno. On the other hand, Maruti Suzuki offers Invicto. Both the carmakers offer Grand Vitara and Urban Cruiser Hyryder mid-size sports utility vehicles (SUV).

Toyota has made some cosmetic changes so that the Rumion can be differentiated from the Ertiga.
