What we can't tell you yet
Everything below was searched for. Lines marked (unverified) show a figure that only one source gives, or that sources disagree on; the rest have not been published anywhere we could find for this version.
- Fuel grade (unverified) — Toyota does not state the fuel grade for this engine in any market we could find.
- 0-100 km/h (unverified) — 11.96 seconds, measured in a South African road test of this version.
- Boot (seats folded) — Toyota does not publish a seats-folded boot figure for this Corolla Cross.
- Kerb weight — Toyota publishes the kerb weight as a range (1 385–1 430 kg), not a single figure.
- Payload — Derivable only as a RANGE and “Payload” is a scalar integer: GVM 1 850 kg (the hybrid row; the petrol GVM is 1 815) minus kerb 1 430/1 385 kg gives 420-465 kg. pdf. Toyota SA publishes no payload row. Not collapsed, for the same reason as “Kerb weight”.
- Airbags (unverified) — Airbag count for this derivative.
- Battery (usable) — Toyota publishes no hybrid battery capacity for the Corolla Cross. The capacity changed with the facelift, and no South African source states which pack the current car carries.
- Battery (gross) — Toyota publishes no hybrid battery capacity for the Corolla Cross. The capacity changed with the facelift, and no South African source states which pack the current car carries.
