Equipment details of Corolla Cross 2024 have not been shared by Toyota Vietnam.
If it’s the same as the car in Thailand, the basic Gasoline engine will remain the same.

The LED taillight interface has also been refreshed (Photo: Drive).
Although the price of the 2024 Corolla Cross has dropped sharply compared to the old model, with the removal of the G version, the starting price of this B+ size crossover is significantly higher than before, even on par with the mid-range versions of some SUV models.
Previously, Toyota Corolla Cross could compete with B-SUV models through the G version, with a suggested retail price of 760 million VND.
The active safety system on the Toyota Corolla Cross 2024 in Thailand is also upgraded with a 360-degree camera (added transparency mode and increased clarity at night) and smart automatic throttle (works at all speed ranges).
Experts say that reducing the variety of versions and price ranges can affect the consumption of Toyota Corolla Cross 2024. Especially in the context that this model is facing a lot of competition from competitors.
In the first 2 months of 2024, Toyota Corolla Cross only sold a total of 277 cars, far behind Honda HR-V (1,083 units).
