PROS

CONS

  1. Driving range trails larger electric SUVs
  2. Limited appeal for long highway travel

The Toyota Urban Cruiser is a compact electric SUV designed for urban and suburban use. It sits in the B segment and uses a five door crossover body style aimed at daily practicality rather than performance.

The Urban Cruiser EV uses a lithium ion battery expected in two capacity options, with a usable range of around 350 to 400 km on the WLTP cycle depending on configuration. It supports AC home charging and DC fast charging, with fast charge capability targeting short stop top ups rather than long distance travel.

Pricing is positioned below larger electric SUVs and close to other B segment electric crossovers. It suits city drivers, small families, and buyers moving from petrol crossovers to electric for the first time. Alternatives include the Peugeot e 2008 and Hyundai Kona Electric. A direct comparison fits against the Kia EV3 in size and use case.
