More rugged Toyota Yaris Cross Dynamic revealed
Small SUV's new-found toughness is only skin deep and will only be available with AWD hybrid if it comes to OzA new flagship for the 2021 Toyota Yaris Cross has been released in Europe that introduces a more rugged look, but no more off-road capability.
Called the Toyota Yaris Cross Dynamic (or Yaris Cross Adventure in some markets), the new range-topping small Toyota SUV comes equipped with standard 18-inch alloy wheels, new silver roof rails and an off-roader-inspired body kit that includes front and rear bash plates.
Inside, there's a piano black dash, faux leather, a black headliner and a leather-clad steering wheel and gear shift lever.
A further upgrade included as part of a limited-run Premier Edition version of the Dynamic or Adventure adds leather seats, a head-up display, two-tone paint, an electric rear tailgate and a different set of 18-inch rims.
In Europe, the new range-topping trim only comes equipped with the all-wheel drive hybrid powertrain. That means it gets a 1.5-litre three-cylinder Atkinson-cycle engine that's combined with a small electric motor to produce 85kW and 141Nm of torque.
If a decision is made to introduce the Adventure or Dynamic trim to the Australia Yaris Cross line-up, a premium over the current Urban AWD hybrid is expected.
Currently the Urban AWD hybrid tops the local range at $37,990 plus on-road costs.
