Toyota Urban Cruiser
The Land Cruiser is one of Toyota’s most iconic names, so borrowing a little of that adventurous spirit for the Urban Cruiser definitely grabs our attention. Underneath, the new Urban Cruiser shares its platform with the Suzuki e Vitara, but Toyota has given it its own personality. As you’d expect, it’s built with practicality in mind. It’ll feel just as happy nipping across town as it will heading off for a weekend away, making it a solid all-rounder for everyday life.

We’re always pleased to see another electric Toyota arrive on the scene. When a manufacturer with Toyota’s reputation commits to another EV, it’s good news for everyone thinking about making the switch. The Urban Cruiser isn’t trying to reinvent the wheel, it just focuses on being easy to live with, comfortable to drive and brilliantly practical. Sometimes that’s exactly what you want from an everyday electric car.
Interior
If you’re expecting flashing lights and a spaceship-style dashboard, this probably isn’t the one. Toyota’s approach has always been simple: if something works well, don’t overcomplicate it. Most of the controls you use every day are proper buttons, exactly where you’d expect them to be, so before long you’ll be adjusting the heating or changing the radio without taking your eyes off the road. While perfect for regular trips and luggage, those needing extra cargo room may prefer a larger layout.
