Do note that the Urban Cruiser is a rebadged version of the facelifted Vitara Brezza, which also scored 4 stars in 2018 in its pre-facelift avatar. The facelifted Brezza features different ISOFIX anchorages and standard front seat belt restraints (only for the driver earlier). Since the Urban Cruiser is based on the facelifted Brezza (the outgoing one), the current Maruti SUV should also ideally receive the same score.
The Toyota Urban Cruiser is currently the third safest car in its subcompact SUV segment. It shares the stage with the Maruti Vitara Brezza, Renault Kiger, and Nissan Magnite, but scores better points than all three of them. The XUV300 leads the group followed by the Tata Nexon, both scoring five stars.
The Toyota Urban Cruiser is offered with a 105PS 1.5-litre petrol engine, paired with 5-speed manual and 4-speed AT options. It’s currently priced from Rs 8.88 lakh to Rs 11.58 lakh (ex-showroom Delhi).
