Dealer in Bangalore told me test drives will be available from 26th/27th of this month and deliveries will start from 1st week of October

My Dealer in Mumbai informed me yesterday that test drives will be offered after 29th September. Deliveries will start from 2nd week of October.

In the other hand, Nexa dealer (for my GV booking) is saying deliveries start from September end itself!

I think Toyota dealer is managing expectations

Which dealer is this? Will help to know since Lakozy ( Toyota owned dealer ) is non committal even about the display vehicles let alone the test drive by month end.

On the contrary the Nexa dealer was more forthcoming and mentioned all showrooms to get their own display vehicles as soon as Navratri starts and Shradh period ends.

Received an update that test drives in Chennai are expected only in October and the dealership is only expecting a display car this month. Seems like Chennai test drive and deliveries may be a few days behind Mumbai and Bengaluru.

Certainly seems like Maruti has a more streamlined operations unit and have their act in order. The only positive lining is that the Toyota dealership has acknowledged the status and assured they will be in touch.

Car allocation to dealership has started. One of the dealership in Kolkata is going to receive 15 cars in Sep as their first stock which will be dispatched by 17th Sep from factory. Only issue would be regional RTO will closed during puja and hence there might be delays related to registration.

Toyota Hyryder Dual tone variants’ Prices Out, starts at Rs. 17.69 Lakh

The dual-tone shades come with a black finished roof. The price of the G eDrive 2WD Hybrid two-tone stands at Rs. 17.69 lakh and thus it is Rs. 20,000 costlier. In a similar fashion, the dual-tone V eDrive 2WD Hybrid is at Rs. 19.19 lakh (both prices, ex-showroom) as it is Rs. 20,000 more expensive than the same grade with single tone shade.

Madhuban Toyota .

SA says they generally receive allocation details for the month (variant wise + colour wise ) on 5th of every month. Hence , he is going to get clarity only by end of first week of October on delivery timelines.

I too received a call from Topsel Kolkata regarding delivery may be tried by September End but due to Puja I am certain can’t get it on road by then so have told them that would take delivery in 2023.

Got this from my SA yesterday. Car will be on display this weekend.

Still no confirmed news about the test drives though.

This display was a utter waste of time. It was a mild hybrid variant, doors and boot were locked so you can only look at it from outside. Can't sit in it or check out the boot space .

I fail to understand what this car is still doing at a mall. It should be displayed in the showrooms by now. More so, be available for test drive.

No wonder people seem to have lost interest by lackluster attitude of Toyota's launching efforts of the Hyryder. I check this page few times everyday hoping for new updates, exciting news, some reveals, but there are very few posts in last 1 week !!

I am not in hurry, but there has to be some roadmap shared by Toyota to its dealerships about arrival of demo vehicles, test drives, all model prices etc but this is least expected from a Japanese company known for kaizen

Hi
Pune dealer Shaw Toyota confirmed test drive & deliveries from 1st week of October.
I hope they stick to what they are committing.

cheers

I just received the Toyota Urban Cruiser Hyryder price quotation for Gurgaon from a known SA of Toyota showroom here.

They have added some logistics charges. Is it a genuine charge?

[rahil_29]

Finally received the on road pricing in Mumbai. Toyota, when are you planning to start test drive!?

A few things I was thinking about and wondering if they were addressed in earlier posts:

Battery - Would the battery wear out over time? (like those in laptops, cellphones, etc). If yes, wouldn't this hurt the resale value (after 5 years maybe)?
Also, would anyone have any further information on the clauses on the battery warranty?

Sunroof - Rather disappointed with the thin sheet this comes with. Is there an alternative? Would tinting the sunroof help keep the car cooler?
