It is not entirely fair to simply box the Toyota Urban Cruiser as a rebadged Suzuki Vitara Brezza. Indeed the variant is a product of the Toyota/Suzuki alliance, but it remains a worthy addition to the Toyota family. The sales of the Urban Cruiser alone speak volumes (pun not intended) about the great appeal that the vehicle has. The latest range is available in 5 different models:
The compact SUV has plenty to offer the market. Customer reviews buzz about the pleasant driving experience that the range offers, and it is especially suited to those who prefer a manual transmission. The engine beneath the hood is a keen and consistent performer, with the Toyota Urban Cruiser even capable of navigating gravel and certain off-road surfaces. This is especially impressive given that the Urban Cruiser is not a 4x4.
The exterior is refreshingly modern and stylish, escaping the sometimes cumbersome aesthetic usually associated with family vehicles. The interior of the model is well put together, spacious, and focused on being functional. Whilst many vehicles offer a busy cabin and complex innovation, the Toyota Urban Cruiser does the opposite. The most recognizable feature (especially amongst Toyota enthusiasts) would be the inclusion of the Touchscreen Multimedia System, which allows customers to link their smart devices to the system via Apple CarPlay or Android Auto.
Apart from the range of vehicle specifications and performance, one of the most impressive aspects of the Toyota Urban Cruiser would be the pricing. The entry-model Toyota Urban Cruiser 1.5 Xi retails for R274 900, making the SUV the perfect choice for those just entering the market. Let’s explore some of the model's accessories.
The Toyota Urban Cruiser comes equipped with a good amount of accessories. Examples of these include
| Accessory: | Purpose: |
|---|---|
| Roof spoiler garnish: black | Useful for enhancing the stability of the vehicle |
| Side skirts: black and silver | Maximizes aerodynamic performance and offers protection. |
| Mudguards | Protect the vehicle from random debris and mud. |
| Scuff plates with model name | Minimize the effect of constantly closing the door and protecting the sill. |
| Front bumper garnishes | The bumper assists with absorbing the impact from other vehicles in the instance of a collision. |
| Front underrun black inserts | Are useful for preventing smaller objects from being dragged beneath the car in the event of a collision. |
| Accessory: | Purpose: |
|---|---|
| Window sunshades curtain | There is a dual purpose with these accessories. They ensure privacy and make sure that the cabin is cooler. |
| Floor mats | Ensure cleanliness, protect the vehicle’s carpet and provide comfort to the passengers in the cabin. |
| Car seat cover | Provide the upholstery with protection. |
| Urban Cruiser boot mat | Provide the boot with protection in the instance that there is a spill. |
