And for sure, that sleek design and a powerful engine hardly seem to forego a show by this car. But can it compete with the famous Mahindra XUV700? Let’s dive into it and find out.
In an effort to make it a leader, though in a crowded market, Toyota has included the following features:

This car is laden with features that suit comfort and convenience. For example Tech-intricate interior: The Corolla Cross is loaded with an inside floating design for a touchscreen infotainment system. Of course, this also comes with Apple CarPlay. A 7-inch TFT instrument panel reads the most important vehicle information.

Safety as its motto

The Corolla Cross gets quite an impressive package of safety equipment. In this context, panoramic view monitors for safe driving are also available. Luxurious features: Power adjustable driver’s seat, panoramic sunroof, and power tailgate with kick sensor make the Corolla Cross seem luxurious.

Performance

Under the bonnet, the Corolla Cross is powered by 1.38 liters of petrol mill partnered with a CVT transmission. While the engine drives a healthy dose of power and torque, it will make the Corolla Cross one fun car to drive. As of now, specific figures for the Indian market haven’t been released, but one should expect some good balance of performance and fuel efficiency.

Price and Competition

A competitive price is expected from the Toyota Corolla Cross and is estimated to start from around ₹ 35 lakh mark. As mentioned earlier, it will be at par with the front runners, like Mahindra’s XUV700, which are known for its rugged appeal and feature-rich interiors.

Conclusion

Toyota Corolla Cross is, by all means, a strong contender in the compact SUV segment. Given its aerodynamic design, richly featured interior, and the smart engine, it will be offering a competitive proposition to key players like the Mahindra XUV700.
