2025 Toyota Urban Cruiser Hyryder Launched with New Features, Variants, and AWD Automatic Option

Toyota Kirloskar Motor has officially launched the 2025 Urban Cruiser Hyryder in India, bringing with it enhanced safety, modern tech updates, and an all-new AWD automatic variant. Priced from ₹11.34 lakh (ex-showroom), the refreshed Urban Cruiser Hyryder strengthens Toyota’s hold in the competitive compact SUV segment. Here’s a detailed breakdown of what’s new.

New Features Across Variants

The MY2025 Urban Cruiser Hyryder gets feature upgrades across the lineup, enhancing comfort, convenience, and tech experience:

• 8-way power-adjustable driver seat (top-spec)

• Ventilated front seats for improved comfort in hot conditions

• New digital speedometer and AQI display for modern cabin interface

• Tyre Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS)

• Type-C USB ports for fast charging

• Ambient lighting and LED spot/reading lamps

• Rear door sunshades for rear passenger comfort

These upgrades place the Hyryder among the better-equipped models in the segment, especially in its premium trims.

New AWD Automatic Variant Introduced

One of the most significant updates is the introduction of an AWD automatic combination in the top-end ‘V’ variant. It pairs the all-wheel-drive system with a 6-speed automatic transmission, offering better convenience and off-road performance. Previously, AWD was available only with a manual transmission.

Note: The AWD variant is not offered with the 5-speed manual gearbox anymore.

Improved Safety Package

Toyota has bolstered the Urban Cruiser Hyryder’s safety credentials by making six airbags standard across all variants. This is a big leap from the earlier setup where only dual front airbags were offered in base models.

Additional safety enhancements include:

• Electronic Parking Brake (standard on all automatic variants)

• Enhanced body structure and brake efficiency

These updates make the 2025 Hyryder more secure and align it with global safety trends.

Powertrain Options Remain Unchanged

Despite the feature and safety upgrades, the engine lineup remains the same:

• 1.5L mild-hybrid petrol engine paired with 5-speed manual or 6-speed AT

• 1.5L strong hybrid (intelligent electric hybrid) paired with e-CVT

The only change is the new AWD automatic combo, expanding the appeal of the lineup for those seeking a more capable SUV for varying terrain.

Final Thoughts

The 2025 Toyota Urban Cruiser Hyryder is more feature-packed and safer than ever before. With six airbags now standard, new creature comforts, and the introduction of a premium AWD automatic variant, Toyota has elevated its compact SUV offering without altering its proven and fuel-efficient powertrains.
