Rather than be humdrum or radical, the Corolla Cross exudes elegance with slick exterior styling and a graceful interior that would suit many families. Style isn't the only card the Corolla Cross has up it's sleeve, it's versatile as well. The spacious interior is accompanied by a large boot rated at 440 litres of luggage capacity which can be extended by folding the rear seats down. The kids aren't left behind as there are ISOFIX child seat anchors available. On top of all that, you get the latest in convenience and driver assistance systems. The Corolla Cross really is an all-rounder and there's to read about everything you need to know about the car.

How Popular is the Toyota Corolla Cross?

According to recent vehicle sales stats released by NAAMSA, the Toyota Corolla Cross sold an astounding 1129 units in 2022. It's no surprise why, the vehicle is an attractive value proposition. Considering the reopening of the Toyota Prospecton manufacturing plant in Durban after devastating flood damage in the middle of a global pandemic, it's interesting to see healthy sales figures like that. It's worth mentioning, the Corolla Cross is proudly manufactured in South Africa at the aforementioned Prospecton plant, further adding to the popularity with a waiting list, even for the GR-S variant.
