Toyota Hyryder SUV Waiting Period Reaches up to 10 Months in India

As of March 2024, the waiting period for several Toyota models has been revised. Speaking of one of the best-selling models from the brand, the Hyryder SUV, its Neo Drive (mild hybrid) variant, commands a waiting period of up to 10 months (39 weeks). Interested customers who opt for the strong-hybrid and CNG versions, on the other hand, will have to wait up to 4 months (17 weeks) and 8 months (30 weeks), respectively.

For the uninitiated, the Urban Cruiser Hyryder is currently available in four different variants: E, S, G, and V. The price of the car ranges from Rs 11.14 lakh to Rs 20.19 lakh. Both prices are ex-showroom. Interested buyers can choose from a variety of available exterior colour shades, including seven monotone and four dual-tone options. These are Cafe White with Midnight Black, Sportin' Red with Midnight Black, Enticing Silver with Midnight Black, Speedy Blue with Midnight Black, and Gaming Grey with Midnight Black.

Toyota Hyryder SUV: Under the Bonnet

The Toyota SUV's 1.5-litre TNGA Atkinson Cycle engine cranks out a maximum power output of 92bhp and 122Nm of peak torque when mated to an eCVT transmission. Together, the engine and electric motor generate 114bhp, with the motor contributing 79bhp along with 141Nm of torque. The manufacturer claims that the potent hybrid drivetrain offers a fuel efficiency of 27.97km/l. Notably, a 117.6V lithium-ion battery powers the setup. A mild hybrid drivetrain is another option for the Hyryder. It shares the same 1.5-litre K15C engine as the Ertiga and the Brezza. The Neo Drive motor can be coupled with either the six-speed torque converter automatic gearbox or the five-speed manual gearbox. This results in a maximum output of 103bhp and 137Nm of peak torque.
