Top 3 things about the Toyota Corolla Cross

-autotrader.co.za

The 2025 Toyota Corolla Cross is proving to be another sales hit for the brand, bringing innovation, style and efficiency to excite compact SUV enthusiasts. Whether you're considering transitioning to a hybrid vehicle or require a versatile compact SUV, the Corolla Cross has something for everyone. Here are the top 3 things you need to know:

1. Forward-thinking design and performance

Toyota has always been a pioneer in blending aesthetics with performance and the 2025 Corolla Cross is no exception. The vehicle boasts an updated exterior featuring a distinctive grille, modern LED headlamps and stylish taillights. Available in new colours like Oxide Bronze and Brass Gold, each hue adds a unique flair to the vehicle's bold stance.

Under the hood, the Corolla Cross offers two powertrains – a reliable petrol engine and an innovative hybrid option. The hybrid variant is particularly efficient and wallet-friendly, offering an impressive fuel consumption rate of 4.3L/100km.

If you travel long distances, however, a hybrid powertrain might not be right for you. It's in the city where hybrids shine for lowered fuel consumption and the Corolla Cross hybrid models can drive on electric power alone when it has harvested enough energy from combined driving. In that case, the 1.8-litre petrol models will be right up your alley.

2. Advanced safety and technology enhancements

Safety and technology remain at the core of Toyota's design philosophy. The 2025 Corolla Cross integrates Toyota Safety Sense, ensuring peace of mind with features like Pre-crash systems, Lane Trace Assist and Blind Spot Monitoring.

Moreover, technology has advanced with a state-of-the-art infotainment system that includes a 12.3-inch touchscreen, Apple CarPlay and Android Auto integration. Select trims offer a 360-degree panoramic view monitor, hands-free tailgate operation and a comprehensive digital instrument cluster, elevating convenience and luxury.

3. Comfort and convenience for everyone

Inside the Corolla Cross, comfort is a top priority. New seat designs offer ergonomic support and are complemented by premium finishes and stitching, with higher trims offering partial leather upholstery. Rear passengers enjoy reclining seats and dedicated air-conditioning vents, making every journey comfortable.

Dual-zone automatic air conditioning ensures optimal climate control in all but the entry-level variant. Practicality is further enhanced with multiple USB Type-C charging outlets, a leather-wrapped steering wheel in upper trims and an electronic parking brake system, all designed to deliver a great driving experience.

So, if you're considering buying a not-so-compact family crossover, the locally built Toyota Corolla Cross is the way to go! Get yours today at NTT Toyota Eswatini, with the Cross 1.8 Xi starting from just E414 800 and the Cross 1.8 XS from E452 200; plus, enjoy free Smash and Grab with your purchase.
