In early February of this year, Toyota unveiled an upgraded version of the Corolla Cross SUV in the Thai market. The BIMS 2024 International Auto Show showcased this model and introduced it to the public.
Not long ago, the batch of Toyota Corolla Cross 2024 cars imported from Thailand also arrived in Vietnam, preparing for its launch in May. Dealerships in Vietnam have already started accepting reservations for this model.
A sales consultant at a dealership mentioned that the B+ segment SUV will no longer offer the standard G variant, and only retain the V and HV variants. This change may result in a higher starting price for the Toyota B+ SUV, currently priced at 760 million VND, and create a clearer distinction with its sibling, the Yaris Cross.
In the new version, this B segment SUV has undergone slight design improvements. This can be clearly seen in the front of the vehicle with a new grille design, without borders, reminiscent of some of the newer Lexus models such as the RX or LM. Inside the grille is a honeycomb grille in the same color as the body of the car.

Next is the LED headlight cluster with a new crystal design, divided into two layers by the LED daytime running light strip. The top layer features sequential turn signal lights, while the bottom layer houses the main headlights.
In addition, the Toyota Corolla Cross 2024 also features new exterior details such as a connecting strip between the headlights, vertical air vents at the two front corners, and new 18-inch alloy wheels with a multi-spoke design, two-tone finish. The overall design of the taillight cluster remains unchanged, but the internal styling has been updated.
