Toyota Urban Cruiser Hyryder

Toyota Urban Cruiser Hyryder is the latest product to come out of the company’s JV with Maruti Suzuki. Developed on Suzuki’s popular Global C-platform, the Urban Cruiser Hyryder is produced at Toyota Kirloskar Motors Bidadi manufacturing facility. 

Currently in its first generation, the new model offers a host of new technologies and efficient powertrain options in the mass market segment.

Toyota Urban Cruiser Hyryder: Exterior

The 2023 Toyota Urban Cruiser Hyryder’s exterior design features characteristic lines all around along with a flat bonnet giving the vehicle the much-required SUV look. Like all New Toyota cars, the Urban Cruiser Hyryder offers the signature upper grille that is finished in faux carbon fibre along with a large air intake at the bottom. Sleek twin LED DRLs flank the upper grille while the main headlamp units sit below on the muscular bumper.

Towards the sides, we get to see the new 17-inch alloy wheel design and squared off wheel arches that add to the SUV appeal of the four-wheeler. Towards the rear, we are presented with new design LED DRLs and a muscular bumper that houses the vertically stacked combination lights and a sporty skid plate.

Overall, the design of the 2023 Urban Cruiser Hyryder is unlike anything we have seen from Toyota cars in the past.
