Toyota is planning to bring its Creta rival to the market soon and the interior of the mid-size SUV has been partially revealed in a teaser video.
The interior of the Toyota HyRyder mid-size SUV has been partially revealed via this teaser video. The Creta rival is set to make its debut in our market on July 1 and the Maruti’s version of the same will follow soon after. As with all Maruti-Toyota products, the underpinnings and powertrains of the SUVs will be identical albeit the exterior styling, this time around will be distinctive. Toyota will supply the platform and hybrid engine as opposed to Maruti supplying them in the case of Glanza and Urban Cruiser (from Baleno and Vitara Brezza respectively).
