The Toyota Innova is the durable seven- and eight-seat people carrier: built for long distances, full loads and heat rather than road manners. In Saudi Arabia it serves as family car and small-business shuttle, and we have 1 listed.
What to inspect before you buy
Read the servicing and suspension sections of the CarSwitch inspection report before you offer on any Innova in the Kingdom — at this mileage, the record is the car.
Asking prices run from SAR 45,000 for a late-2010s high-kilometre example up to SAR 45,000 for a current-year one. The spread reflects how hard the vehicle worked more than its plate year, so a serviced high-mileage Innova often beats a tidier one with gaps in its record.
Well past the point most people carriers are written off. The Innovas we inspect in the Kingdom come in at a median of around 261,000 km and are still changing hands, because it was engineered to carry eight people every day. Distance is not what finishes them; skipped servicing and overloading are. Expect a high odometer and judge the record instead.
The Mitsubishi Xpander costs less to buy and fuel, but is a lighter vehicle that will not absorb the same daily load. The Kia Carnival carries adults more comfortably, though 75% of the ones we inspect carry previous body or panel repair, against the 63% we would expect for people carriers of the same age and mileage here.
2018 to 2022 is the value window. The second-generation Innova arrived for the 2016 model year with a new chassis, a stronger body and a much better cabin, so 2016 is the line to be on the right side of. The 2021 update was cosmetic rather than mechanical, so a late pre-facelift car is the sensible buy: same engineering, less money.
It tracks its class rather than beating it — about 56% after five years, level with the average used people carrier in the Kingdom and behind the 61% typical of used Toyotas. The smaller Toyota Veloz does better, about 64%, if you can live with less space.
