Toyota Taisor New sub-4 meter SUV

1. Toyota registered Taisor name. 2. Based on Maruti Fronx. 3. Maintain gap between Glanza & HyRyder. The sub-4 meter SUV segment is on high demand. Toyota had introduced the re-badhed version of Vitara Brezza as Urban Cruiser which got discontinued due to some reason. The Urban Cruiser was doing well in the segment by giving 3-4K sales per month. But after discontinuing Urban Cruiser, the segment is empty from the manufacturer. Toyota has planned to come-up again in sub-4 meter segment with a new SUV. For that they have registered the name Taisor however they haven't revealed the SUV yet. We expect the Taisor will be the re-badged version of recently unveiled Maruti Suzuki Fronx. Fronx got a global debut in last month and the price is to be unveil yet. Similar SUV like Fronx is going to stand on Toyota dealer soon with the name of Taisor. We expect the Taisor will get some Toyota DNA in design of front and interior.
