Hyundai launched its much-awaited premium seven-seater, the Alcazar last month. This Korean SUV directly competes with products like the Tata Safari and the MG Hector Plus. Upcoming Mahindra XUV700 will be another addition to this list. With that being said, there are a few other products that fall in its price bracket, with one of them being the Toyota Innova Crysta. Despite both being seven-seaters, they fall into different segments. In this article on Hyundai Alcazar vs Toyota Innova Crysta, we are going to find out which car is best suited for you.

The Hyundai Alcazar measures 4500mm in length, 1790mm in width and 1675mm in height. This car has the largest-in-segment wheelbase of 2760mm. Coming to the Innova Crysta, it is 4735mm in length, 1830mm in width and 1795mm in height. This Japanese MUV has a wheelbase of 2750mm. Looking at dimensions, it becomes clear that the Innova is longer, wider and taller than the Alcazar. This would translate to better legroom, knee room and headroom inside the cabin. The Alcazar however sits on a slightly longer wheelbase. Also, the Alcazar is available in six-seater and seven-seater configurations, whereas, the Innova Crysta is available in seven-seater and eight-seater configurations.

If you are looking for a seven-seater that comes loaded with features, you should definitely go with the Hyundai Alcazar. However, if you want a seven-seater that comes with powerful engines but are willing to compromise on some features, Toyota Innova Crysta becomes a better option for you. The Innova won’t mind going a bit off-road as well. Both will hold their value well in the aftermarket as well. The only factor that will help you decide is the choice between features and performance. The Alcazar is the value for money choice but if you want to not only us the features but also the third row, the Innova is better in terms of overall space.
