Toyota Urban Cruiser EV

Toyota will launch the Urban Cruiser EV as its first mass-market electric car in the country in 2025. It is based on the Suzuki's e-HEARTECT platform that also underpins the Maruti e Vitara, which is scheduled to make India debut at the 2025 Bharat Mobility Global Expo. In terms of proportions, the new Urban Cruiser is 4285mm long, 1800mm wide and 1640mm tall, and has a wheelbase of 2700mm. The SUV rides on 18-inch wheels; however, the top-spec model gets 19-inch wheels.

The Toyota Urban Cruiser EV comes with advanced driver assistance system. The ADAS offers pre-collision system, adaptive cruise control, lane departure alert and lane keep assist. In terms of features, the SUV gets 360-degree surround view camera, 10.25-inch digital driver's display, a 10.1-inch multimedia display, electrically adjustable driver's seat, a JBL premium audio system, and a fixed sunroof.

The Toyota Urban Cruiser EV will come with two battery packs along with single-motor FWD and dual-motor AWD setups. It is offered with a 49kWh battery pack with a front-axle-mounted electric motor, offering an output of 144hp and 189Nm of torque. The higher version will get 61kWh battery pack with FWD and AWD setup. The front-wheel-drive version offers 174hp and 189Nm of torque, while the dual-motor AWD version delivers 184hp and 300Nm of torque. The AWD version will have an additional 48kW motor on the rear axle. The Urban Cruiser EV will be manufactured at Suzuki's Gujarat based manufacturing plant.

7-Seater Toyota Hyryder
