Toyota unveils “true-blooded” Urban Cruiser
Toyota has unveiled its new Urban Cruiser, which it describes as being just a much of a "true-blooded" vehicle as its Land Cruiser stablemate.
Now on sale in the UK, the new hatchback crossover model takes the go-anywhere attitude of the Land Cruiser and puts a contemporary spin on it, the marque states.
The motor incorporates Toyota’s Active Torque Control all-wheel drive system into its design, as well as the maker’s Optimal Drive technology, which ensures that low fuel consumption and emissions are delivered without compromising overall performance.
"It provides strong on-road traction and confidence-inspiring stability and agility in all weather conditions," the marque asserts.
Toyota says it expects to sell around 2,500 of the Urban Cruisers in the first full year of it being on sale.
In recent days, the manufacturer announced plans to lease more than 150 units of its next-generation Plug-in Hybrid across Europe as part of a three-year environmental programme.
