car_truckDawn light paints the city in soft silver as the 2026 Toyota Corolla Cross LE glides along quiet streets, its 0089 Wind Chill finish catching the first hints of morning. The stance is confident yet unassuming—LED headlamps tracing the curb, black cladding and a subtle rear lip spoiler adding purposeful detail—ready for the day’s detours whether that means wet pavement, gravel cut-throughs, or a late-night grocery run.
Under its sculpted hood, a Dynamic Force 2.0L I-4 delivers 169 horsepower with a crisp, refined character. Paired to a 10‑speed automatic/CVT with selectable drive modes and sequential shift control, it balances everyday ease with a decisive response when merging or passing. The independent suspension (double wishbone in the rear) and gas-pressurized dampers keep the ride settled and quiet, while all-speed traction and brake-actuated limited-slip assistance maintain composure when the weather turns.
Efficiency stays front and center as well, with smart auto stop-start and ratings of 8.1 city and 7.5 highway.
Inside, the cabin welcomes with thoughtful ergonomics and durable refinement: cloth seating with heat up front, a leather steering wheel that also warms on chilly mornings, and piano-black plus metal-look accents that elevate the clean layout. A full-length console and well-placed storage nooks make quick work of daily carry items, and the 60/40 split rear bench folds to accommodate cargo that refuses to fit neatly. The roll-up cargo cover and tie-downs keep valuables discreet and gear secure.
Technology lands right where you want it. The 8-inch Toyota Audio Multimedia touchscreen anchors seamless connectivity with Apple CarPlay/Android Auto wireless mirroring, Bluetooth streaming, and Toyota Assistant voice control.
With Remote Connect (3-year trial), you can start the engine, lock/unlock, and check vehicle status from your phone, and Drive Connect Destination Assist (subscription required) stands by for turn-by-turn help when plans change. A clear digital/analog instrument display with a 7.00-inch gauge cluster keeps essentials in view, and a redundant digital speedometer simplifies quick glances.
Confidence is engineered into the structure and layered through advanced driver assistance. Toyota Safety Sense™ 3.0 brings Pre-Collision System with Low-Light Pedestrian Detection, Lane Departure Alert with Steering Assist, Lane Tracing Assist, Road Sign Assist, Emergency Steering Assist, and Automatic High Beam. Full-Speed Range Dynamic Radar Cruise Control w/Curve Speed Management lends steady, hands-on support in traffic, and Blind Spot Monitor plus Rear Cross Traffic Alert adds awareness in busy lots.
SafetyConnect® (trial included) provides integrated SOS and vehicle tracking for added peace of mind, while ten airbags and a robust, fully galvanized body with side-impact beams form a strong passive safety core.
Practical touches round out the experience: heated mirrors with turn indicators, one-touch up/down windows all around, hill-start assist for steep garages, and a compact spare tucked neatly under the cargo floor. With just 3 kilometers on the odometer, this new Corolla Cross LE arrives as a fresh canvas for your week—uncomplicated, efficient, and ready to shift from weekday routine to weekend escape without a second thought.
