The Toyota Hyryder mid-size SUV is about to make its grand entry into our market soon and Toyota has been releasing short teasers of the same.
Based on the teasers released by Toyota, digital automobile artists have come up with an illustration of the Urban Cruiser Hyryder. The Hyryder will allow Toyota-Maruti to have a dedicated mid-size SUV to compete against the likes of Hyundai Creta and Kia Seltos. This product will be developed by Toyota in its DNGA platform and Maruti will sell it in the badge-engineered version just like the Baleno-Glanza and Vitara Brezza-Urban Cruiser versions. Unlike these, however, the exterior styling of Toyota’s and Maruti’s versions will bear differentiation.

This visualisation features the front fascia of the mid-size SUV. Toyota has offered a glimpse of what certain elements on the front would look like. That is what the digital artist has taken as the basis to invent this version. It features sleek dual-LED DRLs that house the chrome strip between them just beneath the bonnet, the massive radiator grille is finished in black theme with projector headlamps on either side inside a stylish chrome housing, and there is a grey skid plate to accentuate the sporty traits of the SUV. The bonnet line is quite upright and the ORVMs and the roof are painted black.
