The Toyota Urban Cruiser Hyryder is a compact SUV which offers a mix of usability and comfort along with class-leading fuel efficiency in its hybrid versions. It is a result of a shared-platform technology partnership with Maruti Suzuki and thus comes with familiar powertrains done in a Toyota-styled wrapper. In the Indian market, it addresses the requirements of those people who want an urban-friendly SUV that does not offer the bulkiness but still offers ample space, a relaxed driving experience with good ground clearance, and low running costs. The Hyryder is not designed for sporty driving; rather, itโs designed to absorb road irregularities with a smooth ride. With hybrid technology available alongside conventional petrol and mild hybrid options, the Urban Cruiser Hyryder stands out as a versatile choice in a segment crowded with petrol-only alternatives.

The Urban Cruiser Hyryder is designed to provide a smooth and predictable driving experience rather than one that is sporty in nature. The SUV is quite stable when it is driven in traffic conditions, and it is very smooth in city driving when it is in hybrid form. Handling is not the primary focus in this SUV, as it is comfortable to use rather than sporty to drive. However, it is very well-suited to its intended use as a proper family SUV in India as a family-runabout with ease.

"The car is great for city driving and gives good mileage, but it lacks power on highways. If youโre looking for excitement, this might feel a bit tame."
