July 14, 2022: Toyota Yaris Cross pricing and features

This story, originally published in October 2020, has been updated to reflect the latest information.

The 2022 Toyota Yaris Cross light SUV brings hybrid power to the compact high-rider class for the first time in Australia.

It is priced from $26,990 before on-road costs, extending to $37,990 plus on-roads for the flagship all-wheel-drive hybrid variant.

Three grades of Yaris Cross – GX, GXL, and Urban – are available, each having a trio of powertrain choices, for a total of nine variants.

14

The hybrid powertrain has a combined fuel consumption of 3.8L/100km with front-wheel drive.

Pricing and features have remained unchanged since the Yaris Cross launched in November 2020.

In the light SUV class, the Toyota Yaris Cross competes against the Mazda CX-3, Kia Stonic, Hyundai Venue and Ford Puma, amongst others.

14

The cheapest variant of the Ford Puma has a $30,340 sticker price, while the Mazda CX-3, Kia Stonic and Hyundai Venue can be purchased for under $25,000.

In terms of size, the Yaris Cross is smaller than its C-HR sibling, which remains in the small SUV class, while being slightly larger than the Yaris hatchback on which it is based.

Toyota will bolster its compact SUV line-up in late 2022 with the addition of the Corolla Cross – the largest of the trio – which will slot below the RAV4 medium SUV.

In the coming months, a mildly-updated 2023 Toyota Yaris Cross will launch with technology and styling updates, including new colours and black leather-accented trim on Urban variants.
