Toyota has officially introduced the 2025 Corolla Cross, combining the trusted reliability of the Corolla name with the rugged appeal of a modern SUV. Targeted at global markets including India and the USA, this compact crossover brings the best of both worlds—premium features, hybrid performance, and advanced safety. Whether for daily urban drives or weekend road trips, the new Corolla Cross fits the bill perfectly.
Bold and Sporty Exterior Design
The Corolla Cross 2025 boasts a striking SUV presence with a wide front grille, LED headlamps, roof rails, and muscular body lines. Its raised stance and up to 18-inch alloy wheels offer both urban elegance and mild off-road utility. The rear profile gets sleek LED tail lamps and a sculpted bumper that gives it a sporty and premium finish.
Upscale Interiors and Practical Comfort
Step inside and you’ll find a well-appointed cabin with soft-touch materials, leather seats, and dual-zone climate control. Rear-seat passengers enjoy generous legroom, rear AC vents, and USB-C ports, while higher trims get a panoramic sunroof. With a boot capacity of over 430 litres, it easily accommodates luggage for long trips.
