Toyota has recently increased the game in the mid-size SUV with the introduction of the Urban Cruiser Hyryder Aero Edition in India. It is based on the good idea of the original Hyryder and is given a new Aero Edition with a sporty design, premium features, and performance nuances to appeal to younger buyers in search of something unique and practical.
The Aero Edition, with its daring design inspires and chases after its characteristic features, occupies the middle ground between an adventure and a trendy, upscale - a niche that Toyota appears to understand so well. It is time to separate all you have to know about the new Toyota Urban Cruiser Hyryder Aero Edition price, mechanics, visual upgrades, and technological features.
Price and Variants
The new Urban Cruiser Hyryder Aero Edition has a starting price of approximately 19.74 lakh (ex-showroom) and it is a little higher in comparison to the regular upper versions of the Hyryder. The additional price is however warranted by the exclusive cosmetic and functional upgrades which ensure that it has a performance inspired appearance.
The Aero Edition comes in a variety of trims such as NeoDrive S, G, and Hybrid V; a mixture of mild-hybrid and strong-hybrid. This gives it the flexibility so that there is an Aero Edition model that suits all sorts of drivers, either power is more important or fuel efficiency or pure driving comfort is what is more crucial.
Engine and Performance
The Aero Edition has the same proven powertrain options under the hood:
1.5-litre K-Series mild-hybrid petrol, jointly developed with Maruti Suzuki. It produces 103PS and 137Nm of power and torque respectively. It has a 5-speed manual or a 6-speed paddle shifter automatic gearbox.
Strong-hybrid 1.5-litre engine, which gives 116PS combined output. This is a hybrid that is powered by the self-charging technology used by Toyota, and it easily runs on petrol or electricity to allow it to be as efficient as possible.
The Aero Edition does not change the engines but concentrates on the driving experience by making minor suspension modifications to make it more stable and more comfortable. It remains equipped with Front-Wheel Drive (FWD) on the majority of the models and All-Wheel Drive (AWD) on some of the trims of the mild-hybrid model.
Design and Exterior Styling
The primary focusing point of the Toyota Urban Cruiser Hyryder Aero Edition is the design. The SUV has adopted a younger and more aggressive look using Aero body kits and high quality finish touches.
Key highlights include:
- Stylish front and rear bumpers extensions having a sport-inspired design that enhances the vibrant silhouette of the SUV.
- Patterned skid plates and side mouldings made of carbon-fibre which made it look sporty and rough.
- Red elements on the grille and the bumper that are painted sleekly that contrast with the dark chrome paint.
- Dual tone exterior paint, which comes in such combinations as Metallic Black with Grey Roof or Enticing Silver with Black Roof to create more visual impact.
- The tailgate was marked Special Aero Edition by badging.
The 17-inch diamond-cut alloy wheels with blacked-out accents are the final pieces of the look that are a perfect complement to the sharp nature of the Aero Edition. In general, it appears much sportier and high-end than the base Hyryder, and it would be appreciated by the customers who want their car to impress people on the street.
Cabin and Comfort Upgrades
- Enter in, and the Urban Cruiser Hyryder Aero Edition carries on with the sporting theme. Although the cabin design is the same, Toyota has improved on it by making slight aesthetic and comfort additions that make the cabin appear more premium.
- Black and grey interiors with a red stitching all over the seats and steering wheel makes the SUV have a high energy personality.
- The cabin is also fitted with soft-touch dashboard finishes and piano-black inserts that bring in a sophisticated feel to the car.
- New Aero-branded floor mat set and luminous scuff plates are additional differences in features of this edition and the standard trims.
- Seat-wise, the SUV has retained its comfortable design with a lot of legroom and headroom. The back seat is still reclinable to some extent which makes long voyages comfortable even to the travelers.
Technology and Safety
The Aero Edition is superbly endowed to accommodate all the technological amenities that have positioned the Hyryder as one of the most feature-loaded SUVs in its category. Notable features include:
- Android Auto and Apple car play compatible touchscreen infotainment system, 9-inch.
- Smartphone charger/wireless and 360 degree camera/ 360 degrees to effortlessly maneuver.
- Head-Up Display (HUD) with speed, navigation and hybrid system indicators placed directly in the driver line of sight.
- Front seats ventilated, ambient lighting, panorama sunroof to enhance in-cabin experience.
The primary concern of Toyota is still safety. Hyryder Aero Edition has six airbags, ABS with EBD, vehicle stability control (VSC), hill-hold assist and TPMS (Tyre Pressure Monitoring System). The hybrid variants also come with the hill-descent control and this provides confidence even in rough surfaces.
Fuel Economy and Driving Intelligience
The Urban Cruiser Hyryder Aero Edition reigns in the game of efficiency as it is expected of Toyota.
- The strong-hybrid model boasts of a fuel economy of approximately 27.97 km/l, which puts it in the position of being amongst the most affordable SUVs in its category.
- The mild-hybrid versions are able to achieve nearly 21 km/l, which is determined by the driving circumstances.
The character of motivation is subject to calmness. The hybrid powertrain provides quiet journeys on the city streets, and the mild-hybrid model comes with a more exciting experience and a conventional throttle response. Toyota has a good suspension system, it is well balanced to absorb bumps yet the car does not lose control even when going on highways.
Final Verdict
The introduction of the Urban Cruiser Hyryder Aero Edition has seen Toyota make an already competent SUV even more attractive. The Aero Edition does not pursue specific performance numbers but rather aims at providing style, efficiency and practicality in the form of a sharp, sophisticated packaging.
To individuals who trusted the standard Hyryder to be good, but rather dull, the Aero Edition adds just the right touch without the loss on the proven reliability of Toyota. It suits city consumers who are conscious of their daily comfort, sportiness and fuel efficiency in the long-run with the Toyota badge of reliability.
When you want to have a family SUV that attracts attention but is so efficient, Toyota Urban Cruiser Hyryder Aero Edition may be a good choice.
