India’s first Toyota Hyryder SUV to get 18 inch aftermarket alloy wheels

Toyota India launched their all-new mid-size SUV Urban Cruiser Hyryder in the Indian market few months ago. This is Toyota’s first ever mid-size SUV in India and it has been jointly developed with Maruti Suzuki. The SUV has started reaching Toyota dealerships across the country and the deliveries for the same have also started. We have seen many videos of Toyota Hyryder where the SUV is compared with some of its competitors.

The video has been shared by ravityres_amritsar on their YouTube channel. In this video, a modified Toyota Hyryder SUV is seen. The white colour SUV is seen with a set of aftermarket alloy wheels. Toyota offers 17 inch wheels as standard with the SUV. They do not look too small on the SUV and give it a proportionate look. It looks like the owner of this SUV thought otherwise and wanted bigger set of wheels. The 18 inch aftermarket alloy wheels fit neatly on the SUV. When compared with regular version, the Toyota Hyryder now looks a lot more taller. The new set of wheels and tyres are wider than the stock set up and they slightly pop out from the body.

Other than the alloy wheels, no other major modifications are visible on the SUV. The 18 inch wheels are not too huge but, for some reason they do not look very good on the SUV. It might have something to do with the design of the alloys. May be a different looking alloy wheels of same size may suit better on the SUV. No other modifications are visible on the SUV anywhere. Toyota Hyryder is a premium mid-size SUV that competes with Hyundai Creta, Kia Seltos, Volkswagen Taigun, Skoda Kushaq and Maruti Grand Vitara in the segment. Toyota Hyryder is available with a mild hybrid and strong hybrid engine option. The list of features on both these variants are also slightly different from each other.
