Recently Asked User Questions

Q. Tayota Urban Cruiser will be made by Toyota or Maruti? What about difference between Urband Cruiser abnd Vitara Brezza?
  • Toyota Urban Cruiser is more than just a rebadged Maruti Vitara Brezza. The Urban Cruiser differs from the Vitara Brezza on the outside with a twin-slat grille and more aggressive fog lamp housing. It also gets a unique brown shade for its cabin. Moreover, it will be manufactured by Maruti like the Glanza before.
  • Urban Cruiser is made by Maruti with Toyota logo. Absolute crap. Very cheap built quality. Not worth the money at all.
Q. Is the build quality of Toyota Urban Cruiser is same as Brezza?
  • Yes, as both the cars are manufactured on the same platform by Maruti, the build quality will remain the same.
  • You can say it is worst than Breeza...
Q. Which variant to buy Urban Cruiser?
  • Toyota Urban Cruiser Mid is the variant that offers the most value for the money. What’s more, you also get a touchscreen infotainment system in this variant, which has kind of become a necessity these days. Moreover, if budget is not an issue and want a better feature list and bragging rights, you may go for the Urban Cruiser Premium variant. For more details, you may check out the following article: Toyota Urban Cruiser Variant-wise Feature List Leaked!.
  • Don't buy Urban Cruiser... Its not worth the money... Rather go for same model in Maruti or our Indian cars like Mahindra and Tata... They are making much better cars now.

    new strength new style 

    Mahindra Thar is a popular off-road SUV in India, known for its ruggedness, capability, and convertible option, making it a great choice for adventure enthusiasts. As an off-road SUV, fuel efficiency isn't the Thar's main strength so when you buy it forget about the fuel tank . Talking about the safery features it had dual airbags (driver and passenger) . Its luggage space is very decent can store our daily essentials . But it lacks in some advance features like the sunroof .

    Mahindra Thar: The Off-Road King 

    Ever since I got my hands on the Mahindra Thar, it has been an exhilarating journey of discovering landscapes I never thought I would explore. This beast, with its 2.2 liter mHawk diesel engine pushing out 130hp is unapologetically powerful and ready to tackle the most challenging terrains. The 4x4 capability makes it a dream for off road enthusiasts like myself.However, driving through city traffic in the Thar is where the romance slightly fades.The heavy steering and the firm suspension setup, while perfect for rugged terrains and uncomfortable on urban roads.

    Ultimate Blend of Adventure and Comfort

Its unique features and design, solid structure and powerful diesel engine allow this vehicle to be in impressive off-road capacity and durability. Thar offers space and driver-friendly infotainment make it suitable for both enthusiastic off roading and daily driving. Yet, it's on-road handling and ride quality is likely to be seen as lacking in comparison to more refined SUV versions.

The Thar is aspects to fluently navigate indeed the most delicate my travelling because to its sturdy lattice, durable design, and prideful 4x4 capabilities.

    High safety and amazing performer 

    The safety in Mahindra Thar is very high with high score in the safety but gives body roll. The engine is refined and in the city it is very enjoyable and is a very different SUV and the feel of this car is excellent. It offers a lot in good pricing and is a very awsome car to drive and is a winner car from Mahindra but the comfort is not good in the rear seat. The cabin is noise free and i am using petrol engine and the ground clearance is outstanding and the handling is decent.
