Toyota prices Corolla Cross ahead of October launch

TOYOTA Australia has announced pricing for its all-new Corolla Cross small SUV this week, the three-variant range due to arrive in local showrooms in October priced from $33,000 plus on-road costs.

The line-up will offer two engine choices – petrol and petrol-electric hybrid – as well as front- and all-wheel drive configurations and the top-shelf Atmos Hybrid AWD variant sneaking in from just under $50K.

The Corolla Cross range starts with the 2.0-litre petrol-powered GX two-wheel drive variant from $33,000 plus ORCs or $35,500 as a hybrid.

It is equipped as standard with 17-inch alloy wheels, LED lighting, heated and auto retractable door mirrors, single-zone climate control, cloth upholstery and keyless entry with push-button start.

The Corolla Cross GX is further equipped with Toyota latest-generation multimedia system comprising an 8.0-inch touchscreen display, six-speaker sound, wireless Apple CarPlay connectivity, wired Android Auto connectivity, and DAB+ digital radio reception.

Toyota says the model will also offer the most expansive suite of Toyota Connected Services safety and convenience features of any Toyota at launch, all of which are supported by the car’s new data control module.

Further, new safety features are also set to debut on Corolla Cross which introduces as standard the latest iteration of Toyota’s Safety Sense suite of driver assistance features. Lane change assist now joins existing features including an enhanced pre-collision system with pedestrian and cyclist detection, active cruise control with curve-speed reduction, lane-trace assist and lane-departure alert.

All grades also receive eight airbags, automatic high beam, a blind-spot monitor with safe-exit assist, rear cross-traffic alert and a reversing camera.

Stepping up from the GX, the mid-grade GXL is priced from $36,750 plus ORCs for the petrol-powered two-wheel drive and $39,250 in hybrid format. The Corolla Cross GXL also introduces Toyota’s E-Four AWD system to the range, priced from $42,250 plus ORCs.

The GXL variant offers high-grade LED headlights, front fog lights, rear privacy glass and roof rails, as well as leather-accented and fabric combination upholstery, leather-accented shift knob and steering wheel, a self-dimming rear-view mirror, dual-zone climate control and a larger 10.5-inch infotainment array with proprietary satellite navigation.

Toyota also equips the Corolla Cross GXL with rear-seat USB-C charging ports, front and rear parking support brake with static object and rear-crossing vehicle detection and a 360-degree camera system dubbed Panoramic View Monitor.

At the top of the range, the Corolla Cross Atmos, priced from $43,550 plus ORCs with the petrol engine and two-wheel drive, adds 18-inch alloys, a panoramic roof, powered tailgate with kick sensor, leather-accented upholstery, an eight-way electrically adjustable driver’s seat, heated steering wheel, wireless phone charger, rain-sensing wipers, park assist and a 12.3-inch digital instrument panel.

Atmos variants of the Corolla Cross are also available in two-wheel drive hybrid and all-wheel drive hybrid format priced from $46,050 and $49,050 respectively plus ORCs.

“Bringing the Corolla Cross to market shows Toyota’s commitment to offering customers the vehicle that best suits their lifestyle,” said Toyota Australia vice president of sales, marketing and finance operations, Sean Hanley.

“With ample space for a variety of customers and lifestyles, new safety and connected features and fuel-efficient powertrains, the Corolla Cross gives customers what they want out of a small SUV.”
