This is the new 2023 Toyota Corolla Cross Hybrid

The all-new 2023 Toyota Corolla Cross Hybrid introduced this week will certainly become one of the most highly anticipated new vehicles in Canada this year. The Toyota Corolla Cross has been hugely popular ever since it was introduced to the market. Now, by adding a hybrid version, Toyota is making the impressive 2023 Toyota Corolla Cross even more enticing.

More power and improved efficiency for the Corolla Cross Hybrid

The new hybrid engine will deliver 194 hp, quite a bit more than the current Corolla Cross two-litre four-cylinder engine which has 169 hp. You can therefore expect improved performance over the already impressive performance of the Corolla Cross, but where this vehicle will shine is in the fuel economy department. With a combined fuel consumption average of around 6.4 L per 100 km, the new Corolla Cross Hybrid will be one of the most efficient small SUVs you can buy. That's also remarkably efficient for an SUV that has nearly 700 L of cargo space.

The current Corolla Cross is already quite efficient with an average of 7.3 litres per 100 kilometres in FWD models, and 7.8 litres per 100 kilometres with AWD.

The Corolla Cross Hybrid will come with all-wheel drive exclusively and will be offered in four versions. Moreover, Toyota announced improvements for the entire 2023 Toyota Corolla Cross lineup.

Every new Corolla Cross gets the latest Toyota interface and infotainment system which includes advanced voice control compatibility that allows the user to make adjustments to various settings using natural voice commands. The 2023 Toyota Corolla Cross also gets enhanced safety with a new Toyota Safety Sense 3.0 system. This system includes advanced forward collision warning detection capability that can detect motorists as well as pedestrians and other vehicles, and even vehicles coming in the opposite direction at intersections. The 2023 Toyota Corolla Cross arrives on the market later this year and pricing will be announced closer to the launch date.
