Ciro De Siena spent a month driving the new Toyota Corolla Cross Hybrid and this video will help you decide if it should be on your compact SUV shortlist. Give the video a watch and tell us what you think of it!
As motoring journalists, we are privileged to drive, test and review many vehicles. However, we are rarely afforded the opportunity to “live” with a car. A longer test period can often reveal quirks or inadequacies in a vehicle, or more positively, confirm that the vehicle is one you can confidently recommend. Ciro De Siena recently spent 4 weeks with the much anticipated Toyota Corolla Cross Hybrid XR variant.
If social media can be used as a measure of interest in a vehicle, the Toyota Corolla Cross was certainly a stand out addition to the market in 2021. With extremely attractive pricing, the offering at face value is certainly attractive, and I have been inundated with requests to review this car.
Our video guy Ciro De Siena was fortunate to be supplied with the top-of-the-range Corolla Cross hybrid XR model. In this video he takes us on a detailed tour of the car, answering the big question, will the hybrid variant save you money? We also look at the boot space, rear-seat space and features, infotainment system, specs and pricing.
