Toyota Urban Cruiser Hyryder Waiting Period Stands at 16 Months in India

The Toyota Urban Cruiser Hyryder, which shares its underpinnings with the Maruti Suzuki Grand Vitara, was launched in the Indian market last year at a starting price of Rs 10.48 lakh for the petrol and Rs 15.11 lakh for the hybrid version. Prices are ex-showroom. After a series of price revisions, the Urban Cruiser Hyryder currently retails between Rs 10.86 lakh and Rs 19.99 lakh (ex-showroom). Ever since its launch in September 2022, the Hyryder has had a decent start, selling an average of around 3,200 units per month. According to market reports, the SUV commands a waiting period of up to 16 months in India. The Indian arm of the Japanese manufacturer offers the Hyryder in 4 variants – E, S, G, and V. That said, the hybrid variants have a 6- to 7-month waiting period, whereas the ICE (petrol) versions see a waiting period of 10 to 11 months from the day of booking. However, if you choose the CNG version, you will have to wait for about 16 months.
