Toyota South Africa Motors has announced a series of specification upgrades for its Urban Cruiser B-SUV. The changes, applied across both the XS and XR model lines, are designed to refresh the vehicle's offering and improve its overall value proposition.

The updates, which are now standard, focus on increasing comfort, functionality, and day-to-day usability for owners.

Several key features have been added to both the XS and XR grades. These include a new rear wiper to improve rearward visibility and a larger 9-inch infotainment system, replacing the previous 7-inch unit. The steering wheel has also been upgraded from a urethane to a leather-wrapped finish. For rear passengers, dual Type-C USB ports have been added for convenient device charging.
