Toyota Urban Cruiser EV arrives January 19—it's a rebadged Maruti e Vitara

— Revvly Take
Toyota's playing the badge-engineering game in India with the Urban Cruiser EV, a cosmetically tweaked version of the Maruti Suzuki e Vitara hitting dealers next month. It's a midsize electric SUV that'll compete directly against Mahindra's offerings in a market where platform-sharing is the only way to move volume. Same bones, different grille—the OEM playbook nobody asked for.
