The 2026 Toyota Corolla Cross XSE Hybrid Is A Fuel Sipping Urban SUV With More Style & Tech
If you’re in the market for an entry-level subcompact SUV that happens to be powered by a fuel sipping hybrid powertrain, Toyota was actually the first manufacturer to enter the space with the Corolla Cross hybrid introduced nearly 3 years ago. Well, just like the rest of the Corolla Cross family for 2026, Toyota has made some pretty significant updates to the Corolla Cross Hybrid, which include new sheet metal on the outside along with a refreshed interior with the company’s latest infotainment software. So, as you can see, today we are back out here in Napa, California with Soma Raceway behind us because we’re able to get behind the wheel of the updated 2026 Corolla Cross hybrid in this XSSE trim. And the big question I went answered, has Toyota managed to make enough changes to the electrified version of the Corolla Cross to fend off newer rivals? Stay tuned to find out. Now, what makes the Corolla Cross special in the subcompact SUV segment is the fact that Toyota was the first manufacturer to offer a fuel sipping hybrid, which doesn’t surprise me. Toyota is technically the leader in the hybrid space. So, underneath the hood of the refreshed version, as you can see, we have an unchanged powertrain. This is actually a good thing because this is the same Gen 5 hybrid powertrain from the current generation Prius, which combines a 2 L naturally aspirated 4erno that has their direct and port injection that runs on the Atkinson cycle. It’s motivated or assisted by three electric motors. So, there’s two at the front and then there’s a separate rear electric motor called an E- axle that basically gives this vehicle electronic on demand all-wheel drive as standard. And the gas engine on its own delivers around 150 horsepower and 139 pound- feet of torque. But when you combine the output of the electric motors, Toyota says the total uh figure is 196 horsepower, which is nearly 30 more versus the non-hybrid version of this car. Toyota doesn’t quote a torque figure because they said that you can’t really combine the torque of the gas and electric motors uh together. Now, it all goes out through an electronic CVT transmission. So, this is technically a different transmission versus the CVT that’s in the gas powered model. And like I said earlier, all-wheel drive is going to be standard. If you want a front-wheel drive Corolla Cross, you can buy the gas only version. Now, fuel economy is another strong point. This vehicle is rated to get 45 in the city and 39 on the highway, around 42 combined. That’s on regular gas. The fuel tank on this model has shrunk to around 10.6 gallons. It’s around 3 gallons smaller than the gas only version. So, you’re looking at around 450ish miles of range on a full tank, which is excellent. It’s among the best you’re going to find in the segment. Now, Toyota doesn’t quote a 0 to 60 time on the hybrid model, but it is going to be significantly faster than the gas only version. Top speed should be around 112 mph, and this vehicle could still tow up to 1500 lb. And as it sits, surprisingly, Toyota has kept the weight in check. This model weighs in at around 3,400 lb. Basically, less than 100 lb heavier versus the gas only variant. But let’s go ahead and close up the hood here, which as you can see, it’s a heavy hood supported by a prop rod and talk about the exterior styling. Now, I have to admit, when the Corolla Cross first came out, I was not a fan of the design, and I’m still kind of thinking the design’s a little vanilla, although Toyota has attempted to clean it up for 2026. You can see the hybrid version has its own unique grill. You can see the front grill itself has these new bodycoled accents with the honeycomb intakes that are functional with this kind of glossy gray area here above the grill that’s kind of integrated into the Toyota logo which houses the radar sensor for the Toyota Safety Sense 3.0. You have these LED headlights which as you can see have been updated with a new blacked out housing. So you have you still have an LED projector for the low and high beam LED turn signal. You have a new LED daytime running light signature as well where it doesn’t actually just function as the low beam at a low intensity. So, it looks a little bit more distinctive at night. Down here, you can see there are LED fog lights on this trim, which is a nice touch. And you can also see there’s some unpainted gray plastic parts of the bumper along with a front splitter that’s kind of more body color, which looks nice. You also have these fake vents here. And compared to the gas model, which we actually did a separate video on if you want to see our review on the XLE, be sure to click on the link in the description below. This is definitely a more, I guess, sophisticated look, a little bit more of like a street look versus the more adventurous look of the gas. But let me know in the comments section below which front fascia you guys prefer. I still think Toyota could have done more to give this car a more aggressive look. I mean, for me personally, my favorite looking vehicle in the segment is the Subaru Cross Trek, especially if you look at the Wilderness trim. Now, moving around the side profile, because this is built on the TGAC architecture, it’s the same platform as the Corolla. This is a pretty small vehicle, but it’s also around the same size as a Subaru Cross Trek at an overall length of 176 in long with a 103.9 in wheelbase. literally that it is sitting on top of the Cross Track in terms of its dimensions. Although the CorralCross is a little bit wider and a little bit taller. So, it’s kind of interesting that it’s actually a bigger vehicle when you look at it from that angle. You can see the wheels have also been restyled this year. These are the exclusive wheels on the XSE trim. They are a glossy black finish with like a double five-spoke design with a directional look to it. Uh these are an 18-inch wheel wrapped in a 225x 55 R18 Goodyear Assurance tire. All independent suspension is also included with the hybrid model. And Toyota says you have around 8.1 inches of ground clearance. So that’s actually a pretty healthy amount. Although technically if you want more, the Cross Track, for example, offers up to 8.7 inches of ground clearance. There’s also that cladding that you see on so many other SUVs, but I think Toyota did it a good job at keeping it tasteful. I’m actually surprised they didn’t want to make this gloss black, especially on the XSSE, but I appreciate how it’s just unpainted because that’s going to make it a little bit more durable. And then, of course, this color is a new color this year. It’s called Calvary Blue. Uh, it’s an extra 600 bucks and it’s pairing nicely with the two-tone black roof, which you can only get on the SE and XSSE trim. You can see it also has black painted mirrors. These are not power folding, but they do fold in, have integrated turn signals. No 360 camera is available on any version of the Corollross, which is a little bit of a shame. Some competitors, I believe, do offer that feature, like the Mazda CX30, I think. And then you can see the sunroof is just a standard size sunroof. It’s standard on this trim. You have these lowrofile roof rails. Although, I will say that we drove this thing out on the highway earlier. It has a good amount of wind noise and this doesn’t even have the crossbar. So, kind of keep that in mind if you guys do plan to put stuff uh on the roof of the vehicle. You can see it has that little Easter egg where it says Corolla Cross here on the D-pillar. And in general, the profile of the Corolla Cross isn’t quite as boxy as, for example, the RAV 4 for example. But looking at the rear, you can see the tail light design has been freshened up a little bit. In fact, Toyota says their full LED taillights are standard across the board, even on the base uh L or base S trim. So, that’s definitely a premium touch that I wasn’t expecting. You also have the blocked out emblems here. You have the new Toyota badging here, which HEV with the Beyond Zero badge stands for hybrid electric vehicle. And of course, it has the XSSE all-wheel drive badge. There’s a lot of badging going on here, which I find to be a little bit too much at times. But you can see the rear bumper unpainted with some gloss black areas here. No visible exhaust tips. Instead, you just have one that’s kind of tucked away there. I actually think that the XSE should have had some kind of like chrome tip there to kind of give it a little bit of a sportier look. I also would have liked to see maybe a more pronounced spoiler back here. You do have a rear window wiper at least that kind of sits there in the middle. If the spoiler was bigger, they could have hidden it underneath there. Uh, but in terms of the cargo area, the Corolla Cross is one of the few vehicles that offers a power lift gate. So, this gives this car kind of an edge if especially if you guys like technology. And the beauty about the hybrid model is the cargo capacity isn’t uh affected here. You still have around 17 cubic feet of storage space with the seats up, which is pretty small to be honest, even in this class. If you look underneath here, uh there is no spare tire, which is something that the gas only version gave you. Instead, you just have a fix a flat kit with an air compressor. If you fold down the seats, uh, it expands the cargo to around 44 cubic feet of space, which is decent, but just keep in mind some competitors offer as much as 20 more additional cubic feet. So, that’s kind of where the Corolla Cross’s smaller size works against it. Now, moving on to the interior of the updated Corolla Cross hybrid. As you can see, the XSE trim basically only comes with this black interior with the contrast blue stitching and the blue trim. Toyota calls it a mixed media seating which basically combines their softex material with kind of like a different material here that almost tries to look like a combination of the leatherrett with like this kind of cloth accent to it. It’s definitely a little bit more grippy versus the all soft text that you get in the XLE trim. These seats are also heated two two levels on the front seats. You get a manual passenger seat, but the driver does get a 10-way power adjustment. No memory seating or memory functionality is available. And if you guys are looking for cooled seats, sadly Toyota does not offer cooled seats on any version of the Corolla Cross. But once you step inside with that eight inches of ground clearance, it has that typical easy step in height for an SUV. As I shut the door, the door has a tiny sound to it. I definitely don’t like the way it sounds compared to some rivals, but it also reminds me of the other Corollas because it’s built on the same architecture. Now, here’s the key fob for the Corolla Cross Hybrid. You can see it’s Toyota’s latest intelligent access key. I actually like this little sleeve that this car uh has the key in, which makes it look and feel a little bit nicer. It has the usual buttons here for lock, unlock, power lift gate, of course, and then you have the panic function. So, when you want to start the vehicle up, the beauty about the hybrid models, when you turn it on via the power button here, it actually doesn’t have any engine starter noise. Instead, it just wors to life. It has the ready symbol in the fully digital instrument cluster, and that’s how you basically know this vehicle is ready to drive. Because it is a full hybrid system, it can power the vehicle alone uh on electricity, which is great for saving gas and for kind of making a sneaky getaway if you guys need to leave your driveway in in that sense. But looking at the rest of this interior, let’s talk about the door panel materials. You can see this XSSE trim includes a soft touch injection molded plastic with some faux stitching here. More of that soft text right here where your elbow is going to uh rest. And then you have silver trim for the door handles. Silver trim on the door handle, the door grab handle here. The window controls are onetouch up down for all four. So that’s a really nice touch. that’s unexpected in this class. The window switches are only illuminated on the driver switch by itself. No power folding mirrors, of course, and they do feel a little bit cheap, but again, this is all to a certain price point. The steering wheel also has completely unchanged, and I actually do think the steering wheel is starting to look a little dated, but it has paddles to control the ECVT, which I find to be useless. I believe it offered eight virtual ratios. You also have a manual tilt telescoping functionality, uh, where you can get a good comfortable driving position. And a lot of buttons here, of course, for their adaptive cruise control for your audio switches, of course. Uh, and then the horn sounds horrible. That is literally one of the cheapest, dinkiest horns I’ve ever sound. I was really hoping Toyota would change the way the horn sounded for 2026, but they didn’t. There’s no head-up display, obviously. And then you can see the upper portion of this trim has some hard touch plastic materials. You have some more of that silver and gloss black here. And it is padded over here where you’d have the faux stitching. And as you can see, just like on the gas model, this material, this dash design kind of jets a little too far out into the passenger area, which makes the interior feel a little cramped. So that’s something that you do have to kind of get used to. Now, in terms of the infotainment system, this is where Toyota made some nice upgrades. You can see this is the larger 10.5 in display, which has their Toyota connected services system here with overtheair updates. You can see my phone is connected via the wireless CarPlay. You can also get Android Auto that’s wireless. And I love how big the icons are. You can see the native systems off to the left over here. here. If I push that, it’ll expand it and get rid of the native shortcut buttons, or you can kind of go back to that if you’d like. So, this is definitely nice. It looks great. The quality and the resolution is good. And then it also pairs nicely with the fully digital instrument cluster, which is a new feature on the upper trims. All Corolla Crosses come with a 7-in cluster with a combination of analog and digital, but the upper trims will have the fully digital cluster, which looks nice. You also have dual zone automatic temperature control on this trim. Keep in mind, other trims will just have will just have a single zone system. I like how there’s a knob here with some dedicated buttons. But what I don’t like is Toyota got rid of the volume knob on the 10 and a half inch display. Instead, you just have these buttons here to control the volume or you can use the buttons on the steering wheel. I really was hoping they would have squeezed in a knob because there were so many times where I twisted this to actually adjust the volume when it really just adjusts your temperature, of course. Now, when I put the vehicle into reverse, you can see there’s your backup camera. It’s high quality resolution. It’s got trajectory, distance markers, parking sensors, but no 360 camera. Toyota sadly doesn’t offer it on this vehicle. Uh and then the rest of the center stack, as you can see, has been enlarged where you have finally enough space to put your iPhone 16 Pro Max. There’s room for another iPhone there. A wireless charger comes on the SE trims and up. You have two level heated seats here, a heated steering wheel. And then unlike the gas powered model, Toyota includes a drive mode selector on this version. There’s three different drive modes. There’s eco, normal, and sport. Um so it kind of shows you a little uh animation in the instrument panel. We’ll talk about that later on during the driving scene. And then there’s also an EV mode if you guys want to cruise around in pure electric power at very light throttle applications in low speeds. Toyota allows you to do that, of course, because this is a full hybrid. I also like how there’s not as much piano black plastic. There’s a little bit here, but this area here is also a flat plastic area, so it doesn’t show a lot of fingerprints and scratches. Same thing over here for the cup holder area, which is looks like it’s been enlarged. You have a slightly padded center console. Open that up. It’s not very big. You do have a USBC there and another 12volt power outlet. Uh the seats, like I mentioned earlier, they are pretty comfortable and supported. They also feel a little bit more aggressively bolstered than the XLE trim. And then above me, you can see that sunroof also opens up. It tilts. You can also have a retractable shade here. It would be nice if there was a pano roof, but you don’t typically find that in this class. And then the glove box, you can see, is damped, but not lined with felt. It offers it a little bit more covered storage, which is good because there’s not much in terms of storage over here. And then if you guys like a good sound system, the JBL Audio is like a $900 upcharge on this trim, which sounds much better versus the bass system. Although, keep in mind, most of the competitors don’t have super fancy audio systems. Anyways, the one thing this vehicle is missing is no digital camera rearview mirror. You just have an auto- dimming frameless mirror, which this also looks pretty good, and you can see out of the back quite nicely from the big uh back window. But overall, the interior uh is a very light change, but it’s an effective one. The material quality seems good. The screens are much better. It just doesn’t have as much space as some of its competitors, but at least the seats are comfortable and supportive. I just would love to see cooled seats, but then it starts to get more and more expensive. But let’s go hop go ahead and hop into the back seat area and show you guys the space. Now, this is where the Corolla Cross is also at a disadvantage because some competitors offer as much as like 37 in of legroom. Sadly, Toyota only offers 32 back here. So, this is pretty much my driving position. The floor, as you can see, is not completely flat. So, that’s a problem going to be a problem for the middle passenger. The mixed media seating also comes back here. There’s no heated back seats. There’s also no recline function, but you can fold the seat down and create a nice flat load area if you want to, you know, stack some stuff up to the roof for this vehicle. It certainly offers that flexibility. But once I get back here, you can see at 5’7, the space is average for me. I mean, I do have decent foot space. The seat does come eat into your knee room space as you can see. So, if I want to cross my legs, it’s a little bit tough to do so. Um, but at least you do have rear seat air vents, which is nice. You have two USBC charging ports down there as well. Uh just one storage pocket here on the passenger seat. And then in terms of the headroom space, you can see uh there’s actually a good solid maybe 3 in of headroom because of the little carveout here. Sadly though, material quality is hard touch plastic, which is a downgrade from the front seat area. But at least on this trim, you do have an armrest that folds down and gives you two cup holders. So you can fit adults back here. But just keep in mind, some competitors are going to offer more space in the back. So here we are behind the wheel of the hybrid version of the new Corolla Cross. And I have to say this powertrain is really going to give you a huge upgrade compared to the gas model. We got 10.6 seconds in the gas model. Let’s go ahead and see what we can go with the hybrid. And unlike the gas, we actually do have a drive mode. It’s in sport. We’re going to brake torque it. Actually spins the front tires out. Even though this is standard with electronic on demand all-wheel drive. All right. On our first run there, we got 7.7 seconds. That’s with it with that’s with it more slightly uphill. Um, this road here seems a little bit better. So, let’s try another run. This time we won’t break torque it. We’re just going to floor it. Definitely got off the line better there without the brake torquing. The engine also is a little less noisy. Wow. So, 7.97 there. So, that’s with it also on level ground. The first run was actually a little bit faster. If I have an opportunity to do another run, I’ll take it. But this is pretty much around 3 seconds faster versus the uh gas only version, the base engine, which really shows you how much more power an electric motor seriously adds to the driving experience of this car. Even though it on paper it has just barely 30 more horsepower, we actually don’t know the torque figure of this powertrain. That’s going to give you again much more instantaneous power right off the accelerator. The engine itself also is a little bit less buzzy. It’s a little bit more refined and that’s because you don’t have to step into the power too much with this car. Anytime you foot your foot goes down, it’ll automatically the CV the ECVT will essentially bring the revs up and it gives you so much more torque, so much more performance right off the bat. And that’s a satisfying thing. So, it’s really it helps the Corolla Cross stand out, especially when you guys go for the hybrid powertrain because really the only competitor that’s going to offer a hybrid in this class is the upcoming Subaru Cross Track hybrid, which I’m actually going to be driving that vehicle in Oregon next week. So, or actually it’s I’ll be driving it probably as this vehicle is this as this video is going live. So, that’s something to keep in mind is the Corolla Cross is no longer the only hybrid in town. Now, in terms of the rest of the driving dynamics in sport mode here, um, this vehicle has a little bit more of a sportier suspension tune compared to the base XLE or the more roadgoing XLE, but I wouldn’t call this vehicle sporty. The steering in this car is still a little bit sluggish, but it for the most part it responds well enough. The body just feels very, very soft. Even though this XSSE has a supposedly sporttuned suspension setup, it’s definitely not sporty in that sense. A Mazda CX30 is going to offer a way sportier driving experience, but this feels pretty much on par with a Cross Track or with a Volkswagen Tal for example. The seats in this model are a little different than the XLES, but they also still feel a little bit more aggressively bolstered, but I like the soft text material in this model. It’s kind of like a mixed media. They have like a cloth with the soft text built in, which is a nice touch. The view in terms of visibility is also nice. The hood is nice and low, just like on the gas model. This pillar doesn’t seem to be as annoying in this model for some reason. Um, and then the view out from the side in the rear is also good. Toyota again doesn’t offer a digital camera rearview mirror in this car, but you know, with the drive mode selector here, I’ll put it into its normal setting. Most of the times you’re going to have it in normal, and the car doesn’t exactly synthesize any kind of engine noise, but this vehicle is just really easy to drive. If you guys are coming out of, for example, like a Corolla, what the Corolla Cross gives you is just a better, you know, driving experience. you sit up a little bit higher, you get a little bit more space. You got a better commanding view of the road. Um, ride quality in this model I am noticing is a little bit bumpier. So, that’s kind of where I’m hitting some bumps on the road and you feel the impact harshness come through a little bit more. So, that sport tuned suspension setup, unfortunately, it doesn’t really add much in terms of the handling dynamics, but it does affect the ride. Now, it’s not an uncomfortable ride by any means, but you really notice the difference if you’re hopping out of the XLE into the XSE trim. It’s going to make certainly a difference. So, in terms of the noise levels, so here at 60 mph in this car, I am hearing some road noise creep in. It doesn’t have as much wind noise though as the XLE that I just drove as well. So, that’s surprising. But the road noise coming in is a little annoying. So, if you plan to go on a lot of road trips in this car, um you’re going to notice some of its rivals are a little bit quieter in that aspect. So, I I was kind of hoping Toyota would have added a little more soundening materials to this car to improve that. But, it’s still not horrible. If you guys are used to, for example, like a a less expensive vehicle, a lower class of vehicle, you’re going to be pretty used to this right off the bat. This car in general, you know, the seats, they feel a little bit more snug. They hold you in place a little bit better, and it certainly will hold its own around these twisty roads here in Soma, California. The Corolla Cross is not bad. It’s just again, not a Mazda CX30. But remember, these vehicles, even though they’re built on the same assembly line as a Mazda CX-50, for example, they don’t share a thing uh with this car. So, in terms of the rest of the interior, the infotainment system is a big upgrade. I love the bigger uh icons here, the bigger display. You can also make it take up the full screen here, which is a nice touch. The only thing I don’t like is there’s no more volume knob. I was constant I actually twisted this here a few times trying to turn the volume up and down. It’s now just this button over here, which I find annoying, or there’s the buttons on the steering wheel, so you kind of have to get used to that. I love the all digital display here, which is a nice improvement as well. Um, it really makes the car feel a little bit more appropriate given, you know, it’s a 2026 model year and the tech just feels a lot better. But, I mean, overall, this is still really easy to drive. It’s competent. It’s comfortable. It’s practical as long as you don’t have like super tall friends or you need to put a lot of stuff in here. And then in terms of the fuel efficiency, um, this model only has 200 miles on it. But the fuel economy there averages almost 41 miles to the gallon. That’s without even trying. And that’s with journalists driving this vehicle back to back and really pushing it hard. On a almost full tank, it’s showing 350 mi. You should be able to do around 450 in this car. So, I wouldn’t be surprised to do uh whenever I get one of these back home for a full week to test that it probably will do, you know, even better MPG than the 42 that it’s rated. So, there’s a lot of upgrades you get with the hybrid. You get 3 seconds better 0 to 60. You get way better acceleration and, you know, just drivability in the real world. You’ll get much better MPG as well, although the fuel tank shrinks when you guys go for this model around 3 gall. So, it’ll even be it’ll be even cheaper when you look to fill this thing up. But overall, I like the Corolla Cross. I just don’t know if Toyota has done enough to make this vehicle continue to stand out. There’s a lot of good competitors out there, but you know, if you’re trying to decide between the hybrid and the gas mall, it’s kind of a no-brainer for me. Get the hybrid. Now, with just over 93,000 units sold last year, Toyota actually had their best sales year ever for the Corolla Cross. And remember, when this vehicle first came out in 2022, they’ve been seeing a steady increase in sales volume every year, which is not surprising to me if you’re looking for basically a RAV 4 hybrid, but you want it to be cheaper, you want it to be smaller. This essentially was the missing link when it was introduced back in 2023. So, after spending the day driving the hybrid version of the Corolla Cross, it’s pretty easy to see why this is the better choice. Because basically, for an extra $2,000, this gives you a lot more power. It gives you a lot more efficiency. It comes standard with all-wheel drive, and it really is a no-brainer. Because, as you guys also saw, the 0 to 60 time at 7.6 seconds is 3 seconds faster versus the base engine. That’s a pretty significant jump, and you’re going to notice that power in everyday driving. And even though this car is not even broken in yet, it was showing around 41 MPG in that short time that we were driving this vehicle, which was double what the the trip computer was showing for the gas only version. But to be fair, we’ll have to wait until we test both back home and actually figure out what we can get in real world driving once the vehicle has been broken in. I noticed a couple things with the XSSE trim. The ride is a little bit firmer. The seats hold you a little uh hold you in place a little bit better. Uh but it’s also still not the sportiest driving vehicle. You’re going to find a much sportier driving car from Mazda with the CX30. The interior got some nice upgrades in terms of tech with comfortable seats, but it also still feels a little cramped, especially if you guys are looking at the back seat area. That’s where the Corolla Cross really could use a full redesign to give it more interior space. That’s really, I think, going to continue to hold it back from being the sales leader. Because if you’re looking at the segment, the Cross Trek is the best seller at 180,000 units last year, followed by the Honda HRV, which did 150,000 units. So, if Toyota wants to even get closer to that number, I think that the hybrid model is definitely going to help. Uh, and Toyota says currently the take rate is around 60/40 with 40% being the hybrid model. I wouldn’t be surprised to see that number get closer to 50% uh as Toyota continues to move forward with this model. Now, if you’re interested in getting your hands on the latest Corolla Cross hybrid, these are already at your dealership showrooms, and the base price is just under 25 grand for the L model with frontwheel drive, the gas only version. If you want the hybrid in the base S, which comes standard with all-wheel drive, you’re going to have to spend at least $28,9.95. So, on paper, it looks like 4 grand more, but remember, you have to spend another $1,400 to get all-wheel drive on the gas version, which would make the price delta between $2 to $3,000 depending on the trim. This XSE trim that we’re showing you here starts at around $33,000 with the options that it has like the convenience package, the JBL sound, the two-tone paint, and the destination. Our test car here stickers for just over $37,000. I know 37 grand puts it close to RAV 4 hybrid territory, but just keep in mind a RAV 4 hybrid that’s fully loaded is probably going to be in the mid $40,000 range. So, there is some value to be had here. Really, the big question is going to be the Subaru Cross Track Hybrid, which we’re actually going to be driving that vehicle actually the same week that this video is going post going live. So, stay tuned for our for our full impressions on the Cross Track Hybrid because I suspect the Subaru is going to undercut the Corolla Cross at the top end in terms of pricing. But remember, the Corollos does have a little bit more power. It also, I think, is going to have slightly better fuel efficiency. But hopefully, we’ll actually have some fuel efficiency numbers on the bestseller, of course, the Cross Track Hybrid, once we finally get behind the wheel of that model. With all that said, hope you guys have enjoyed my full overview on the brand new 2026 Toyota Corolla Cross Hybrid.

Toyota’s smallest SUV the #CorollaCross arrived late to the party, but it’s already become one of the best-selling vehicles in the sub-compact SUV class. For 2026, #Toyota has made extensive improvements to both the ICE #ToyotaCorollaCross and the fuel sipping #CorollaCrossHybrid. While an electrified #Hybrid powertrain is still rare in this space, Toyota borrowed the excellent powertrain from the latest Prius to make the Hybrid model even more enticing.
