To keep the price low, Toyota has only provided the essential features:

What’s not available: This variant doesn’t come with a music system (infotainment) or speakers. Furthermore, it features black instead of body-colored door handles and ORVMs.
Full focus on safety
Even though this is the base variant, Toyota hasn’t compromised on safety. It comes with six airbags as standard. Features like ABS, EBD, and ISOFIX child seat mounts are also included.
Competition in the market
The new ‘E’ variant of the Toyota Rumion will now directly compete with the base variants of the Maruti Suzuki Ertiga. Due to its price being less than ₹10 lakh, the road tax on it will also be less in many states, due to which customers will get a big benefit in the on-road price also.
