Toyota recently revealed their all-new Urban Cruiser Hyryder hybrid SUV for our market. The new offering from Toyota rivals other C-Segment SUVs like the Hyundai Creta, Kia Seltos, MG Astor, Volkswagen Taigun and Skoda Kushaq.

We put the Toyota Urban Cruiser Hyryder against the Hyundai Creta to tell you 7 features that are missing in the Creta but present in the Hyryder.

1. Mild- And Strong Hybrid Powertrains

The Urban Cruiser Hyryder comes with 1.5L mild-hybrid and 1.5L strong hybrid powertrain options. While Toyota are yet to reveal the claimed fuel efficiency figures for both engine options, we expect them to lead the segment. The Hyundai Creta, on the other hand, offers a diverse range of engine options but none offer any kind of hybridisation.

2. All-Wheel-Drive

The 1.5L mild-hybrid petrol engine in the Hyryder comes with the option of all-wheel-drive, albeit with the manual transmission only. Meanwhile, Hyundai offer the Creta with a front-wheel-drive drivetrain only.

3. 360-Degree Parking Camera

Toyota offer the Urban Cruiser Hyryder with a 360-degree parking camera along with a birds eye view camera. In addition to that, it also alerts the driver about obstacles ahead with the help of the front camera. The Hyundai Creta lacks a 360-degree parking camera and front parking sensors. Its sibling, the Seltos, offers both in its top-spec variants.

4. More Standard Features

The standard features include keyless entry with push-button start/stop, rear armrest, 3-point seatbelts for all passengers, telescopic steering, 17-inch wheels, auto AC, 60:40 split seats, PM 2.5 air purifier, rear disc brakes, electronic stability control and hill-start assist.

5. Soft-Touch Leather Dashboard

6. Telescopic Steering

Toyota Urban Cruiser Hyryder offers tilt and telescopic steering as standard across all variants. On the other hand, the Hyundai Creta only offers tilt function for the steering wheel. It’s shocking as the Hyundai i20, which is much cheaper than the Creta, offers both tilt and telescopic steering as standard.
