Toyota Hyryder mild hybrid or strong hybrid: which SUV to buy?

    While the strong-hybrid offers great fuel economy, the mild-hybrid is significantly more affordable.

    I have narrowed down and plan to buy the Toyota Urban Cruiser Hyryder. I commute around 10,000-12,000km per year. Which one would you recommend – mild or strong – as I am on a tight budget?

    Autocar India says: If you have a budget then go for the Hyryder with the mild-hybrid powertrain, which, though not as nice to drive as the strong hybrid, will serve you well. The strong hybrid’s main advantage is superior fuel efficiency, but given your annual mileage, it will take you many years to recover the premium you have paid when buying the car.

    Shall we consider manual version or automatic in NeoDrive? I'm confused as automatic transmission is quite common these days and maybe need of future. But automatic transmission isn't same as strong hybrid.
