![]() See the Toyota Corolla Cross at dealerships on August 26 or visit their website for more details.The Corolla Cross has a standard Toyota interior, well-equipped but without too much unnecessary flash.

TMP is bending over backwards here to make this proper entry-level crossover, with a hybrid option, as inexpensive as possible. Those are great deals considering this is an upmarket unit, unlike the Vios or Wigo. These come with light monthly payments inclusive of periodic maintenance fees, and guaranteed great resale value options There’s also Balloon Payment plus, which is a choice of 20%, 25%, or 30% downpayment and financing terms of 24, 36, 48, or 60 months. It can be bought with a super low 15% downpayment if you buy the Corolla Cross via Toyota Financial Services. As such, the Corolla Cross can be had using one of several financing schemes. Putting finances together during the pandemic is not easy and Toyota understands that. TMP vice-president, Rommel Gutierrez, adds that the TRAIN (Tax Reform for Acceleration and Inclusion) law’s 50% tax rate cut for hybrids and the AFTA’s (ASEAN Free Trade Agreement) 0% import duties (for cars built within ASEAN) also contributed greatly to how it was priced. Using a shared platform and parts with the Corolla Altis, Toyota brought that gap down, according to TMP president Atsuhiro Okamoto.

It can also maintain a preset distance from the car in front. It comes with a Pre-Collision System uses that uses an integrated camera and the radar system to help reduce the chances of colliding with a car or a pedestrian ahead.Īdaptive Cruise Control uses radar hidden behind the Toyota badge plus a camera on the windshield to scan the road ahead and adjust its speed.
