The Toyota Corolla Cross (Japanese: トヨタ・カローラクロス, Hepburn: Toyota Karōra Kurosu) is a compact crossover SUV (C-segment) produced by the Japanese automaker Toyota since 2020. Adopting the Corolla nameplate, it is positioned as a more practical and larger alternative to the C-HR and built on the same TNGA-C (GA-C) platform as the E210 series Corolla.[7][5][6][8][9] By size, the Corolla Cross is positioned between the smaller C-HR – which the Corolla Cross shares platform with – and the larger RAV4 in Toyota's global crossover SUV lineup.[6]
It was first unveiled in Thailand in July 2020 along with other Southeast Asian markets and Taiwan in the same year, while its introduction in other markets started since 2021.
The twin model of the Corolla Cross, called the Toyota Frontlander (Chinese:锋兰达; pinyin:Fēnglándá), is available exclusively in China. It was introduced in late 2021.
Overview
The Corolla Cross is the second Toyota crossover built on the GA-C platform, after the smaller C-HR which was launched in 2016. The vehicle shares the same 2,640mm (103.9in) wheelbase as the C-HR, but occupies a larger footprint prioritising on interior space and practicality.[10] For the front-wheel drive models, it is equipped with a MacPherson strut front suspension and a torsion beam rear suspension instead of an independent rear suspension used on the regular Corolla and the C-HR to save interior space and cut costs,[11] while all-wheel drive models still come with rear independent units. Development was led by chief engineer Daizo Kameyama.[12]
The interior is shared with the regular Corolla, with minor redesigns.[13] It offers a claimed boot space of 487L (17.2cuft) if equipped with a puncture repair kit, and 440L (16cuft) with a temporary spare tyre.[14]
As of December 2021[update], the Corolla Cross is produced in Japan, Thailand, Taiwan, Brazil, United States, Malaysia, China, and South Africa.[15][16]
