Toyota India has just turned its compact SUV, the Urban Cruiser Taisor, into a safer and snazzier head-turner. Two major updates are rolling out — a striking new “Bluish Black” exterior and six airbags now standard across all variants. In short, the Taisor just went from “urban chic” to “urban fortress with a fashion degree.”
A Fresh Coat of Confidence
The new “Bluish Black” paint option is designed to make your neighbours reconsider their life choices. It’s sporty, sophisticated, and just dark enough to hide the fact you haven’t washed it since the last monsoon. Toyota says this hue reflects its keen eye on customer lifestyle trends — we say it’s proof they know that black cars always look faster, even when parked.
Safety Goes Full-Time
While the colour will make you look bold, the six standard airbags will help you drive bold. Now, whether you buy the entry-level E or the top-tier V, you get dual front, side, and curtain airbags as standard issue. That’s 360 degrees of safety in every scenario — from highway heroics to grocery store speed bumps.
More Than Just a Pretty Face
Under the stylish skin, the Taisor keeps its 1.2L K-Series petrol and zippy 1.0L turbo petrol engine options, delivering up to 22.79 km/l and paired with transmissions ranging from 5-speed manuals to 6-speed automatics with paddle shifters. The cabin still packs premium touches like a dual-tone interior, rear AC vents, wireless charging, and a touchscreen infotainment setup with wireless Android Auto and Apple CarPlay.
Peace of Mind on Wheels
With Toyota’s 3-year/100,000 km warranty (extendable to 5 years/220,000 km), express maintenance, and 24×7 roadside assistance, the Taisor isn’t just about good looks and safety — it’s about not worrying when the unexpected happens. And at a starting price of ₹7.77 lakh (ex-showroom), it’s a lot of SUV for the money.
The Toyota Urban Cruiser Taisor’s new Bluish Black is for those who want to make an entrance, and its six airbags are for those who want to make sure they can keep doing it for years to come.
