Toyota presented the Urban Cruiser, a compact SUV anticipated by the Urban Suv concept car and part of the Japanese manufacturer’s strategy to offer 15 zero-emission vehicles in its range by 2026, including six battery electric vehicles using a dedicated platform.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>

The design of the Urban Cruiser follows the \u2018Urban Tech\u2019 theme, which aims to achieve sophisticated, modern styling to give cars a bold appearance from every angle. The \u2018hammerhead\u2019 front end, a design feature of the latest Toyotas, is one of the key elements, while the front and rear bumpers are characterised by a design that conveys solidity and the distinctive headlamp arrangement extends across the width of the tailgate, wrapping around the car’s muscular flanks. The Urban Cruiser’s relatively long wheelbase (+140 mm compared to the Yaris Cross) is the key to a spacious and versatile cabin. Thanks to a sliding rear seat system, the distance between the front and rear passengers can be easily adjusted to create space equal to that of D-segment SUVs.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>

This design flexibility makes it easy to adapt the interior to achieve greater passenger comfort or more cargo space, as required. The versatility of the interior is matched by a solid design that is true to the SUV-inspired character of the car. The look is clean and spacious, with a low, horizontal instrument panel that combines with a high seating position. Upholstery and trim combine black and dark grey. Ambient lighting offers twelve different colours to create an atmosphere appropriate to the cabin depending on the journey or time of day.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":15,"featured_media":68101,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[28],"tags":[428,2772],"class_list":["post-68110","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-news-en","tag-toyota-en","tag-toyota-urban-cruiser-en"],"publishpress_future_action":{"enabled":false,"date":"2026-07-12 20:02:12","action":"change-status","newStatus":"draft","terms":[],"taxonomy":"category","extraData":[]},"publishpress_future_workflow_manual_trigger":{"enabledWorkflows":[]},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/autodesignmagazine.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/68110","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/autodesignmagazine.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/autodesignmagazine.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/autodesignmagazine.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/15"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/autodesignmagazine.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=68110"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/autodesignmagazine.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/68110\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":68112,"href":"https:\/\/autodesignmagazine.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/68110\/revisions\/68112"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/autodesignmagazine.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/68101"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/autodesignmagazine.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=68110"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/autodesignmagazine.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=68110"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/autodesignmagazine.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=68110"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
