    Apart from its length and wheelbase, the Yaris Cross is smaller than the Vitara Brezza. It is smaller than the Creta in all the aspects. 

    In terms of design, the Yaris Cross looks rugged and gets a high set bonnet, sleek headlamps, vertically stacked LED daytime running lamps in the bumper, and fog lamps right at the bottom. It sits on 18-inch alloy wheels, gets side cladding and dual-tone colour options. At the rear, it gets side swept LED tail lights, and a contrasting roof-mounted spoilerAlthough Toyota hasn’t announced the Yaris Cross’ equipment list yet, expect it to include a digital instrument cluster, touchscreen infotainment unit, automatic climate control, e-parking brake, ambient lighting and a powered tailgate. Safety equipment could comprise more than two airbags, Toyota Safety Sense-based driver assistance features, automatic brake and steering assist systems.
    The highlight, however, is the 1.5-litre, 3-cylinder self charging hybrid electric system (115PS) with the option of an AWD system.
  • If you’re wondering whether it’s coming to India, then the answer is no. Toyota has already announced that it will launch a sub-4m SUV offering in 2022 co-developed with Suzuki as part of their partnership. The info about the 2022 SUV is scarce at the moment but it will be produced at one of Toyota's two plants in Bengaluru and will also be supplied to Maruti Suzuki in India. Maruti’s version should ideally be the second-gen Vitara Brezza
