Toyota is looking at a post-pandemic period when customer tastes have yet to change, that is. preferences will still focus on SUVs. That is why the company is expanding its portfolio with the new Yaris Cross, designed specifically for Europe.
Toyota’s global leadership in hybrid technology involves the first introduction of a hybrid system in a B-segment car in 2012 in the original Yaris Hybrid. As part of the Yaris family, Yaris Cross embarks on Toyota’s new GA-B architectural platform for compact cars. It also shares the concept of “very spacious in a small space” that characterizes the original Yaris by presenting a spacious interior with compact exterior dimensions. And more attractive ways.
I’d even say the new crossover is much more attractive in appearance than the donor Yaris. Although the wheelbase remains unchanged (2560mm), the Yaris Cross is 240mm longer (4180), 20mm wider (1765), and 90mm (1560) taller than Yaris. Despite these parameters, it is compact enough not to interfere with the C-HR’s territory. Its design is not as contradictory as that of its older brother, but it certainly attracts attention. The shape of the headlights is similar to that of the Ford Puma. The side profile is super attractive due to the large wheel arches (under which wheels up to 18 inches can be mounted), the black sills, columns and roof, as well as the black side of the bumpers. The new Brass Gold wine, which contrasts with the black details throughout the perimeter of the car, provides the “wine” look.
Yaris Cross relies on Toyota’s fourth-generation hybrid technology with a 1.5-liter engine that borrows directly from larger 2.0 and 2.5-liter engines from newer models such as the Corolla, C-HR, RAV4, and Camry. The model has a 1.5-liter 3-cylinder gasoline engine that runs the Atkinson cycle. The unit’s thermal efficiency reaches 40%, which is higher than comparable diesel engines and provides extremely low fuel consumption and low CO2 emissions.
The maximum power of the new hybrid system is 116 HP. In terms of CO2 emissions, front-wheel drive models start with values below 90 g / km and those with four-wheel drive below 100 g / km (WLTP).
