Since Maruti Fronx came into the Indian market it has been in high demand. Moreover, the CNG variants of Fronx are preferred by a major amount of customers. However, the Toyota Taisor offers a similar product but in a different packaging. The design of Taisor is slightly different and it tried to match the current Toyota design language. On the inside, it is the Toyota badge on the steering wheel and different colour combos, that make it feel different than the Fronx.

Verdict
The badge sharing between Toyota and Maruti is not new. With the Taisor, Toyota's main aim is to expand into the budget segment as much as possible. While Toyota do not intent on bringing its international models in India, the Maruti rebadged versions seems to be doing just fine for them.
