The year 2024 has been quite successful for Toyota in the Indian market. The company bid farewell to 2024 with the launch of the new Camry. Alongside this, the Japanese company has geared up for 2025 as well. Toyota is set to launch 3 major SUVs next year, including the company's first electric car. Let’s take a look at these upcoming cars.
Toyota Urban Cruiser EV
Despite performing well in the Indian market, Toyota currently does not have an electric car in its lineup. The company is soon going to fill this gap. In collaboration with its partner Maruti Suzuki, Toyota will introduce the Urban Cruiser EV, which will be a derivative of the Vitara e.

The Urban Cruiser EV will be offered with two battery options. The first is a 49 kWh pack, and the second is a 61 kWh pack. It is expected that the variant with the smaller battery pack will come with a front-mounted motor, delivering 144 hp and 189 Nm of torque. The larger 61 kWh battery pack variant may also offer a 4WD option. The estimated range is expected to be over 500 km.
7-Seater Toyota Urban Cruiser Hyryder
The Urban Cruiser Hyryder, introduced with a hybrid engine, has performed excellently for Toyota. It is now reported that the 7-seater version will be launched. The 7-seater configuration will first be available in the Grand Vitara, and later, Toyota will rebrand it and bring it to the market.

Its testing units have also been spotted on the roads. It is expected to be launched with an extended wheelbase and cosmetic updates. The 7-seater version will feature the same engine options as the current model.
Toyota Fortuner MHEV
Toyota's SUV, which has made a name for itself as a powerful vehicle in the Indian market, is set to receive a fuel-efficient engine. The Toyota Fortuner, already available with a hybrid powertrain in global markets, will soon be launched in the domestic market. It will be equipped with a 48-volt mild-hybrid system and a 2.8-liter four-cylinder GD-series engine. This will not only improve the vehicle's efficiency but also reduce emissions.
