At first glance, it looks a lot sportier than the vanilla Urban Curiser. There is a sleek grille with carbon fiber like pattern and slim DRLs on the corners. The large bumper houses the headlines and the wide air dam gets a glossy black mesh opening. On the sides, you have indicator-mounted mirrors, black cladding, alloy wheels, and roof rails. The rear section gets wrap-around LED taillights.

A self-charging hybrid electric car pairs an internal combustion engine with electric motors and a battery pack, which charges itself via regenerative braking. The hybrid powertrain allows for improved mileage, lower running costs, and lower emissions than a standard car with an internal combustion engine only.

Toyota has not yet revealed the SUV but confirmed the name. It will be called Toyota Urban Cruiser Hyryder and will be made in India. It is a self-charging hybrid electric SUV.

We expect the SUV to provide a sporty cabin with connected car technology, ventilated front seats, automatic climate control, and a multifunctional steering wheel. It will likely house a digital instrument cluster and a 9.0-inch infotainment touchscreen with the latest connectivity options.

The Hyryder will be the first in the compact SUV segment to offer all-wheel-drive system. The feature sends power to all the four wheels, allowing for improved off-roading and better grip on slippery surfaces. The SUV is likely to draw power from a 1.5-liter hybrid powertrain, mated to a manual or an automatic gearbox.

Official teasers have revealed that the Hyryder will sport a sleek grille, bumper-mounted LED headlamps with eyebrow-like DRLs, and a silvered skid plate. It will also get indicator-mounted ORVMs, designer alloy wheels, and wrap-around LED taillights. 'Hybrid' badging will be present on the sides and rear.

From the actual name itself to overall design, interir features, and powertrain details, a lot remains unknown. First, let's discuss the name. There are reports that the car may be monikered Toyota Urban Cruiser Hyryder while some claim it will be called Toyota Hyryder.

Toyota is all set to announce its Hyryder SUV in India today. It will be the company's first-ever hybrid SUV here. The event will start at 10:45am.
