Toyota Kirloskar Motor has announced a recall of over 11,000 units of its mid-size SUV, the Urban Cruiser Hyryder, owing to a faulty fuel gauge. All the affected units are of the petrol variants.

According to the industry body Society of Indian Automobile Manufacturers (SIAM), 11,529 units of the Toyota Urban Cruiser Hyryder have been impacted. These vehicles were manufactured from December 9, 2024, to April 29, 2025.

"The subject vehicles (gasoline variant only) are equipped with a fuel gauge in the combi meter (analog type) to indicate the fuel level in the fuel tank. In certain conditions, the fuel gauge may not indicate the correct fuel level in the fuel tank. As a result, even when the fuel level in the tank falls below the designed threshold, the low fuel level warning lamp may not glow," SIAM said, describing the potential defect.

"In this condition, the driver will not be alerted about the low fuel level. Hence, the engine may stop/stall due to a no-fuel condition," it added.

Toyota sold 60,388 units of the Urban Cruiser Hyryder in FY25. In FY26 year-to-date, the vehicle has garnered sales of 56,754 units and is only behind the Creta (1,17,726 units) in the mid-size SUV segment.

The hybrid version offers an intelligent electric hybrid system with a maximum combined power output of 116PS and peak engine torque of 122Nm, and motor torque of 141Nm. It is paired with an e-CVT.

Other highlights include wireless charging, ambient lighting, a 360-degree camera, rear AC vents, and a 60:40 split-folding rear seat.
