Toyota Motor Company is a global powerhouse and world's largest carmaker. In India, though, the story is a bit different. Only Toyota Innova Crysta and Toyota Fortuner are best selling cars in the country and all their smaller cars failed to attract many buyers. Interestingly, Toyota partnered with Suzuki on a global level for product sharing where Toyota gets smaller cars from Suzuki and rebrands them, while Suzuki gets bigger cars from Toyota and rebrands them. While Suzuki has not launched any product under this partnership, Toyota has launched the Maruti Suzuki Baleno based Toyota Glanza, Maruti Suzuki Vitara Brezza based Toyota Urban Cruiser and will soon launch Maruti Suzuki Ciaz based Toyota Belta. As for the large and premium vehicles, Toyota is now all set to launch the Hilux pickup truck, one of the best selling products from the Japanese brand. Here's an image gallery of the Toyota Hilux.
