A Rs 1.30 crore MPV just hit 5,000 sales in India

Key Highlights

  • The Toyota Vellfire has crossed 5,001 cumulative units in India as of end-April 2026.
  • It took six years from launch in February 2020 to reach this milestone.
  • Price ranges from Rs 1.20 crore to Rs 1.30 crore (ex-showroom).

The Toyota Vellfire has crossed 5,001 cumulative sales in India as of end-April 2026, according to SIAM wholesale data. It has taken six years since the first-generation model launched in February 2020. But the more interesting story is in the pace of those sales, not the total.

The Numbers Tell the Story

The Vellfire spent its first four years selling in the low hundreds annually. It launched a month before COVID-19 shut down the country, which did not help. From FY2020 to FY2024, annual sales stayed in three digits every single year.

FY2025 brought 1,155 units, a 189 percent jump over FY2024’s 400 units. FY2026 was even better. Toyota sold 1,483 Vellfires last fiscal, a 56 percent increase year on year and the model’s best-ever annual tally.

FY2027 has opened strongly too. April 2026 delivered 118 units, a 490 percent increase over April 2025’s 20 units. That is admittedly on a very low base, but the direction is clear.

What the Vellfire Is

The Vellfire shares its platform with the Lexus LM. It measures over five metres in length with a 3,000mm wheelbase. The powertrain is a 2.5-litre four-cylinder petrol-hybrid producing 193 hp and 240 Nm, paired with an e-CVT. Toyota claims 19.28 kmpl.

Inside, it gets powered Ottoman second-row seats, a 14-inch touchscreen, a head-up display, roof-mounted passenger controls, and ADAS. The top-spec VIP variant adds Executive Lounge captain seats in the second row.

What It Means

India is buying more luxury MPVs than ever before. The Vellfire is proof that affluent Indian buyers are moving beyond luxury sedans and SUVs. A lounge on wheels, priced at over a crore, and it is accelerating. That says a lot about where the Indian luxury market is heading.
