Toyota Urban Cruiser Exterior
For delving on a distinct identity with new Toyota, the company has modified the front of the Urban Cruiser to give it a distinct identity. While the headlamps and bonnet replicas with the Vitara Brezza, on the other hand, its front grille gives a feel of Fortuner. If we look in respect to styling of fog lamp housings in the bumper, without any doubt its a Toyota on first impression. And wearing a ‘Spunky Blue’ paint shade, this Toyota comes across as one admirable SUV.

Toyota Urban Cruiser interior
The interiors of the Urban Cruiser are inspired from Brezza. One of the modification is the colour of the seats along with the fabric inserts on the door pads. Unlike, the Brezza’s grey, they are left brown. Moving on with seats, just like the Maruti’s, the front seats are comfortable that offers you a high SUV-like position with ergonomics are spot on. The overall layout has been kept spacious with several storage areas. Dashboard’s design may appear a bit dated with finish and quality of plastics which obviously don’t feel as premium as its other Korean rivals.

With ample amount of knee and head room even for tall passengers, there is a nice space at the rear. The high-set seat, makes it easy to get in and out even for the elderly. What you might miss are rear AC vents and a charging provision. At 328-litres the boot is quite big and the rear seat can even be folded 60:40 to carry more cargo.Toyota comes automated with equipments like LED headlamps, LED fog lamps, 16-inch wheels, rain-sensing wipers, cruise control, 7-inch touchscreen with Android and Apple connectivity, climate control and a cooled glovebox.
