The New Generation of Car by Toyota in 2009.
The new Toyota Urban Cruiser is designed to meet a growing demand for vehicles that are cut out for life on urban roads, yet are equally at home off the beaten track. It is compact for easy town driving and parking and, thanks to new Toyota technology, has a small carbon footprint - key requirements for today’s urban motorists.
Toyota Urban Cruiser will go on sale in the UK in May 2009 in two versions: a 1.33-litre Dual VVT-i petrol model with two-wheel drive and a 1.4 D-4D diesel with all-wheel drive. The sales mix in the UK is expected to be 70 per cent petrol, 30 per cent diesel.
Although Toyota Urban Cruiser is compact at 3,930mm long and 1,725mm wide, clever packaging ensures generous interior space. There is plenty of room inside for five passengers, with ample luggage space. Side-by-side shoulder room is generous and the front-to-rear seat spacing means there is comfortable leg room for those sitting in the back. A long, 2,460mm wheelbase and short overhangs allow interior space to be maximised. Cargo capacity is a class-leading 314 litres, extending to 749 litres with the rear seats folded down.
Toyota Urban Cruiser has a rugged, muscular appearance, but is compact and has all the practicality of a modern five-door car. Overall height is low at 1,540mm, but a high hip-point gives a commanding driving position. The rear seats can be split-folded 60:40. Those on the 2WD version have an Easy Flat seating system, with easy slide, recline and fold mechanism, similar to that on the Toyota RAV4, while the AWD model has reclining rear seats with a double fold-down feature.
The Toyota Urban Cruiser benefits from the latest application of the Toyota Optimal Drive philosophy and will be launched with a choice of two clean and fuel efficient engines: a re-engineered 1.4-litre D-4D diesel and a new 1.33-litre Dual VVT-i petrol engine with a Stop & Start system. Both use a new six-speed manual transmission design to give both driving pleasure and class-leading fuel efficiency.
Toyota Urban Cruiser marks the introduction of Toyota’s new Stop & Start system, provided as standard on the 1.33 Dual VVT-i engine. This improves fuel efficiency and emissions performance by switching off the engine when the vehicle is stopped, in neutral and the driver takes his or her foot off the clutch pedal. Applying the clutch to select a gear again automatically restarts the engine. This is done momentarily with no delay in power transmission and very quietly making it almost unnoticeable to the driver or passengers. Carbon dioxide emissions (provisional and subject to final homologation) are 130g/km.

Toyota Urban Cruiser uses the same Active Torque Control AWD system as RAV4. This optimises traction as well as fuel efficiency by managing torque distribution to the rear wheels. In normal road conditions, drive is through the front wheels, but on loose or slippery surfaces the system instantly directs power to the rear wheels to improve stability.
