Toyota Kirloskar Motor has officially launched its first-ever electric vehicle in India, the Urban Cruiser EV.

The carmaker is offering an eight-year battery warranty, BaaS, and 60% assured buyback. The EV comes with 128 kW power, 189 Nm torque, and 49 kWh & 61 kWh battery options, delivering up to 543 km range.

Dimensionally, the Urban Cruiser EV measures 4,285mm in length, 1,800mm in width, and 1,640mm in height, with a 2,700mm wheelbase. Toyota has tuned it for urban usability as well, offering a 5.2-metre turning radius.

In terms of design, the Urban Cruiser Ebella shares its silhouette and overall dimensions with the e-Vitara but stands apart with Toyota-specific styling elements. Up front, it features a revised fascia with segmented LED DRLs, redesigned headlamps, and a slimmer bumper, giving it a cleaner and less angular look compared to its Maruti counterpart.

The side profile remains largely unchanged, save for newly designed 18-inch alloy wheels. At the rear, the SUV gets an updated LED tail-lamp signature along with Urban Cruiser and Ebella badging. The model will be offered in five monotone and four dual-tone exterior colour options.
