Toyota’s Future Plan:

The Japanese automaker is likely to introduce its first electric SUV – the Urban Cruiser EV – in 2026. It will essentially be a re-badged version of the upcoming Maruti e Vitara. The EV will be based on an all-new skateboard architecture, and come with two battery pack options – 49kWh and 61kWh. The higher-spec variant is expected to deliver a range of over 500km on a full charge. The Toyota Urban Cruiser will be 4,285mm long and has a wheelbase of 2,700mm.

Rumour also suggest that Toyota might bring in the re-badged version of the upcoming Maruti midsize SUV (widely known as the ‘Maruti Escudo’ so far). Furthermore, the next-generation Toyota Fortuner is also reported to debut in 2026 with significantly improved styling and feature upgrades. Its engine setup; however, is likely to remain unchanged.
