The 2020 Toyota Granvia has been priced for Australia, and it's significantly more expensive than the much-loved Tarago it replaces. With a starting price of $62,990 before on-road costs, the base six-seat Granvia is $17,500 pricier than the cheapest Tarago. Opting for an eight-seat Granvia adds $2000 to the sticker price, leaving the new base-model people-mover just $271 short of the range-topping Tarago Ultima V6.

Toyota has revealed the all-new Granvia people mover, which will arrive in Australia before the end of the year to replace the ageing Tarago. Pitched as a "luxury eight-seater wagon aimed at hospitality, corporate and family buyers", the Granvia is to the HiAce what the Volkswagen Multivan is to the Transporter.

Platinum Import Garage has issued a recall for imported Mitsubishi Delica and Lancer vehicles as part of the ever-expanding Takata airbag campaign. As with other Takata-related recalls, affected vehicles could be fitted with faulty airbags which can have degraded propellant as a result of exposure to heat and humidity over time.

Fiat Chrysler Automobiles (FCA) has issued a recall for the Dodge Journey and Fiat Freemont twins over concerns a faulty control module could cause the cruise control to malfunction. The manufacturer reports the software in the Power Control Module (PCM) may be faulty, which could cause the vehicle speed to lock or accelerate unexpectedly when cruise control is engaged.
