The practical self-supporting bumper includes neatly integrated fog lamps, positioned low down. Although the paper overall doesn’t evoke a performance vibe, it does cleanly set a grown-up, practical tone that would work as well in the city as it would rurally.
The MPV looks symmetrical from the sides and the clean body lines and 15-inch dual-tone alloy wheels lend it good road presence. Wrap-around tail lamps and a generous tailgate, keep boot access simple from the rear. Thanks to its high ground clearance and tight turning radius, the Rumion CNG is just as at home on city streets as it is on rural twisties.
Spacious and Comfortable 7-Seater Cabin
On the inside of this Toyota Rumion CNG you get a spacious cabin that is designed to be comfortable and functional. The MPV provides space for 7 in a true 2+3+2 arrangement. The second-row bench seat provides good legroom and adjustable headrests, and the tight third row used only for short trips by adults is surprisingly usable.
The interior make-do with black and beige dual tone furnishing that lends a little bit of premium appeal to what is a very functional cabin. The dashboard design is simple and logical, with centrally-seated AC vents and a reachable infotainment screen. Seating is generous with storage space galore: cup holders, bottle holders and under seat bins.
Toyota has provided ample rear AC vents too, so long drives for all passengers would not be an uncomfortable experience, especially in India’s severe summers. The big opening doors and flat floor also ease getting in/out, especially for the senior citizens.
