It should be noted that this time frame may vary depending on the region, dealership, models, and colour options, among other factors. For those who are unaware, the Urban Cruiser Hyryder is presently available in four distinct variants - E, S, G, and V. The price of the car starts at Rs 11.14 lakh and goes up to Rs 20.19 lakh. All prices are ex-showroom.
