You’ll have to pay a premium of Rs 95,000 to get the Hyryder CNG over its respective petrol-only counterparts. This difference is comparable with the Grand Vitara's CNG variants, but the Maruti SUV has a lower starting price of Rs 12.85 lakh.

Specs and features 

The Hyryder CNG is powered by a Suzuki-sourced, 1.5-litre, K15C petrol engine making 103PS and 136Nm, paired with a five-speed manual transmission. The power is tuned down to 88PS and 121.5Nm in CNG mode. The already frugal powertrain returns up to 26.6km per kg of CNG, delivering up to 21kmpl on petrol mode. 

The petrol-only (non-CNG) Hyryder’s base engine is also available with a six-speed automatic. The range-topping powertrain is Toyota's own 1.5-litre strong-hybrid unit paired with an e-CVT transmission. 

While the top-spec features are missing from the S and G Hyryder CNG variants, they can be had with LED headlights, a nine-inch touchscreen, cruise control, a reverse parking camera, six airbags and hill-hold assist.
