The Toyota Corolla Cross emerges as a strong contender in the compact SUV (B-segment) market, offering driving practicality for urban areas as well as robustness for long-distance journeys. This five-passenger vehicle blends modern aesthetics with high functionality, making it an attractive choice for consumers seeking both comfort and reliable performance.
On the exterior, the SUV displays a rugged character through a refreshed honeycomb-pattern grille that gives a dynamic impression. Toyota has also embedded a panoramic roof complete with an adjustable shade to create a roomier cabin atmosphere. Additionally, a power tailgate with a kick sensor is included to facilitate easy cargo loading and unloading without directly touching the door.
Moving to the interior, user comfort takes center stage with premium leather-upholstered seats that are easy to clean. The vehicle provides a luggage capacity of 440 liters, which can be flexibly expanded thanks to the 60:40 split-folding rear seats. On the Hybrid (HEV) variant, a wireless charger is featured on the center console, while the conventional gasoline variant comes equipped with an electric parking brake complete with an auto-hold function to ease driving in heavy traffic.
Under the hood, Toyota offers two engine choices, both supporting the use of E10 bioethanol fuel. The conventional gasoline variant delivers stable performance at competitive maintenance costs. Meanwhile, the Corolla Cross HEV variant combines a 1.8L Atkinson-cycle engine coded 2ZR-FXE with an electric motor to produce smooth acceleration, a quiet cabin, and significantly more optimal fuel efficiency.
Safety is a major selling point thanks to the integration of advanced driver assistance technology. The car is equipped with a Pre-Collision System (PCS) capable of detecting potential collisions with vehicles ahead and automatically applying the brakes if the driver fails to respond. There is also a Dynamic Radar Cruise Control (DRCC) feature that utilizes radar and a camera to automatically maintain a safe distance from the vehicle ahead while cruising on highways.
For the Vietnamese market, the Toyota Corolla Cross is priced starting at 820 million VND for the standard gasoline trim and 865 million VND for the HEV trim. Customers are also supported with various special financing programs from TFSVN, including low initial interest rate schemes to attract buyers to this eco-friendly vehicle.
