World premiere of the all-new Toyota Urban Cruiser.

The Urban Cruiser’s impactful design is a defining quality in differentiating it from its competitors. It builds its customer appeal as a car with an authentic SUV character, communicated by a powerful lower body. Developed on the theme “Urban Tech,” its sophisticated, mature styling gives a bold appearance from every angle. The “hammerhead” front end – a contemporary Toyota design cue – is a key element. The front and rear bumpers are powerfully rendered and the striking rear light arrangement spans the width of the back door, wrapping round into the car’s muscular haunches.
The compact dimensions of the Urban Cruiser are slightly larger than Toyota’s full hybrid compact SUV, the Yaris Cross.

The Urban Cruiser will be offered with two battery packs and the option of front or all-wheel drive. Both use lithium-iron phosphate technology, with the benefit of durability, safety and reduced cost. Acceleration is prompt and linear, both from start-off and at overtaking speeds.
A 49 kWh battery will be available exclusively in the FWD version, giving an output of 106 kW / 144 DIN hp.
Additionally, for the FWD model, a 61 kWh battery produces 128 kW / 174 DIN hp.
As an authentic SUV, the Urban Cruiser will also be offered with all-wheel drive. In this version the 61 kWh battery delivers 135 kW / 184 DIN hp.
All Urban Cruiser versions are equipped with an energy-saving heat pump for the air conditioning system and manually operated battery pre-heating to optimise performance in colder conditions.

One of the key qualities of the new Urban Cruiser is the availability of an all-wheel drive system, affirming its status as an authentic SUV.
The addition of a 48 kW motor to the rear axle gives stable and secure performance on loose and slippery surfaces, giving both peace of mind in difficult conditions and a more rewarding driving experience.
The system also provides Downhill Assist Control and a Trail Mode which detects and brakes a spinning wheel while directing drive torque to the opposite wheel. The front-wheel drive model benefits from a “snow mode” which controls drive torque to help reduce wheel-slip when driving on snow-covered roads.
Technology-led specifications
Equipment specifications deliver the latest technologies for safety, information and connectivity.
All Urban Cruiser versions will benefit from a comprehensive package of active safety and driver assistance systems, helping recognise and avoid a wide range of common accident risks. Features include a pre-collision system, adaptive cruise control, lane departure alert and lane keep assist. A 360-degree camera system gives the driver a complete view of the car’s surroundings when manoeuvring across rough ground or parking in tight spaces.
The instrument panel seamlessly integrates the driver’s 10.25-inch digital combimeter and 10.1-inch multimedia display into a single unit. The multimedia system is designed for fast, intuitive operation with satellite navigation that uses cloud-based data to factor in the latest traffic flow intelligence. Smartphone integration is also provided so the driver can access their preferred apps and services with ease.
Technology is also at hand to help with the day-to-day management of running an electric vehicle. The Toyota HomeCharge domestic wallbox provides a recharging facility that is designed for seamless operation with Toyota models. Further convenience is provided by the MyToyota app, which owners can use to check the state of their vehicle’s battery charge, locate convenient charging stations and schedule and monitor charging sessions.
Other features available, according to model grade, include power driver’s seat adjustment, a JBL premium audio system and a fixed sunroof.
