Toyota Urban Cruiser Hyryder Negatives

  • Low Practicality / Lower boot space in the full-hybrid variant.
  • Quality of interior plastics feels more very average.
  • Interior is Not roomier, Rear bench is only for 2 Adults.
  • Missing features such as rain-sensing wipers, premium audio + subwoofer, electric seats, electric parking brake, LED interior lighting, etc.
  • Performance is medicore above 110 kmph. Competition is much better in this regard.
  • Not as pleasing to drive as the German competitors, or the Creta / Seltos turbo-petrols.
  • NVH levels from the drivetrain are unexpectedly poor for a hybrid. Sounds from the 3-cylinder engine, electric motor and brake vacuum pump comes into the cabin.

  • In world of Hybrid System, The Honda City’s is smoother, more sophisticated & more refined.
