It looks like the Indian best-selling MPV Toyota Innova will be soon threatened by a new rival from the Maruti Suzuki joint venture in the near future.
As revealed by Live Mint, Maruti is developing a new vehicle, code-named RX to take on the Innova in 2017. The RX will be an eight-seater vehicle with a high-capacity diesel unit that is expected to equip other vehicles starting with 2014-2015.
