The Toyota Corolla Cross Hybrid: The Perfect Choice Progressive Malaysian Families
A Toyota Corolla Cross Hybrid is the perfect way into electrified mobility in Malaysia.
Fuel in Malaysia is heavily subsidised, but we may be waking up to a new reality before long. It’s best to be prepared with a vehicle that burns as little petrol as possible while maximising utility. An SUV like the Toyota Corolla Cross Hybrid fits the bill perfectly and offers pretty good kit for a really good price.
One of the main highlights of the Corolla Cross Hybrid is its outstanding fuel efficiency. It’s not just rising fuel costs but environmental concerns that make its ability to save on petrol consumption more important than ever. The Corolla Cross Hybrid addresses this by offering an impressive fuel efficiency, ensuring that you can go further with fewer trips to the petrol station. In fact, the hybrid model boasts CO2 emissions of just 98g/km, contributing to a greener and more sustainable future for everyone.
Comfort is another area where the Corolla Cross Hybrid excels thanks in no small part to the TNGA chassis and large, supportive seats. There’s dual-zone air conditioning and rear air conditioning vents too. The spacious 440L boot space, complete with a luggage tray, provides ample room for all your belongings, whether you’re running errands in the city or embarking on a weekend getaway.
Toyota’s commitment to technology is evident in the Corolla Cross Hybrid. The 4th Generation Hybrid Electric battery has been optimised to last longer than ever before, thanks to an efficient air filtration system that improves battery cooling. This means that you can enjoy the benefits of a hybrid vehicle without worrying about battery life.
Additionally, the Corolla Cross Hybrid comes with an impressive warranty package, including 8 years of unlimited mileage coverage for the hybrid electric components. This hybrid warranty can be optionally extended another 2 years too. This provides peace of mind and reassurance that Toyota stands behind their product.
When it comes to performance, the Corolla Cross Hybrid delivers. The 1.8L, 16-valve DOHC engine with VVT-i ensures a smooth and powerful drive, while the EV Mode and Drive Mode Switch offer flexibility and control over your driving experience. The E-CVT transmission further enhances the overall performance, providing seamless acceleration and efficiency. With an 18′ approach angle and best-in-class turning radius of 5.2M, manoeuvring through city streets and navigating tight parking spaces becomes effortless.
Safety is a top priority for Toyota, and the Corolla Cross Hybrid is equipped with an array of advanced safety features to keep you and your loved ones protected. The Toyota Safety Sense (TSS) suite includes pre-collision systems, lane departure alert, dynamic radar cruise control, lane tracing assist, and automatic high beams. In addition, the 3D panoramic view monitor, blind-spot monitor with rear cross-traffic alert, and front parking sensors ensure that you have a clear view of your surroundings at all times, minimizing the risk of accidents.
Connectivity is seamlessly integrated into the Corolla Cross Hybrid, catering to the modern driver’s needs. Apple CarPlay and Android Auto-ready connectivity allow you to effortlessly connect your smartphone to the 9″ display audio system, giving you access to your favorite apps, music, and navigation. The inclusion of a wireless charger ensures that your devices stay powered up on the go. Furthermore, the vehicle telematics system (VTS) keeps you connected to your car, allowing you to monitor its status remotely.
Let’s face it, going full electric in Malaysia right now is not for everyone but taking a step towards electrification is important. The Corolla Cross Hybrid is probably the best for the average Malaysian family to do so.
