Toyota Corolla Cross
2.0 145 kW hybrid FWD CVT
Here, Green NCAP tested the 2023 model of the Toyota Corolla Cross Hybrid with a 2.0 litre naturally aspirated gasoline engine, electric traction motor and automatic transmission (CVT). This is a midsized SUV targeting the buyers who look for high everyday comfort and functionality but still wanting a reasonably sized car. Because of that, this powertrain seems a very good choice, demonstrating good fuel consumption values in mixed driving cycles - under 5 l/100 km. However, motorway driving with higher speeds significantly increases the consumption figures. The performance of the exhaust aftertreatment system could be improved with focus on CO-emissions during high load situations and particle number emissions in short trips with cold engine start. The emitted greenhouse gases are not unusual for a vehicle of such configuration and cap the overall achievement, awarding the Corolla Cross Hybrid the fair result of 2 Green Stars with an Average Score of 49%.
