The Toyota Innova is the tough, rear-drive seven- or eight-seater: a people carrier built for long distances and heavy use rather than for road manners. In the UAE it is a family workhorse and a favourite with small transport operators.
What to check before you buy
Read the servicing and suspension sections of the CarSwitch inspection report before you offer on any Innova — at this mileage, the record is the car.
Our listings run from AED 89,000 for an older high-kilometre example up to AED 89,000 for a recent low-mileage one. The spread reflects how hard it worked more than its plate year, so a serviced high-mileage Innova often beats a tidier one with gaps in its history.
Much longer than a conventional MPV. The Innovas we inspect in the UAE come in at a median of around 168,000 km and are still changing hands, because this is a vehicle engineered to carry eight people and their luggage every day. Distance is not what finishes them — skipped servicing and overloading are. Expect high kilometres and judge the record instead.
The Mitsubishi Xpander is cheaper to buy and fuel and better in traffic, but a lighter vehicle that will not take the same abuse. The Kia Carnival is the comfortable choice for adults, though 33% of the ones we inspect show an electrical fault against the 14% we would expect for people carriers of the same age and mileage here.
2017 to 2021 is the value window. The second-generation Innova arrived for the 2016 model year with a new chassis, a stronger body and a far better cabin, so 2016 is the line to be on the right side of. The 2021 facelift was cosmetic rather than mechanical, so a late pre-facelift car costs less for the same engineering.
Less well than its rivals, which is the trade for how cheap it is to buy and run: about 49% after five years, against roughly 55% for the average used people carrier in the Emirates. If retention matters more than toughness, the Suzuki Ertiga gives back about 63%.
