While the Toyota Corolla Cross needs no introduction, we’re here to highlight why it was voted South African car of the year. In this article, we will explain the ins and outs of maintaining your Corolla Cross after purchase. But first, we’ll recap some of the Corolla Cross’s greatest hits as a dynamic SUV. One of the best things about this vehicle is that it is available in both a petrol model as well as a hybrid. With petrol prices skyrocketing, there may be no smarter investment than a vehicle that works with both petrol or electric power.
This remarkable engine works by switching between petrol and electric power to enhance the car’s already stellar performance and efficiency. The best part? You don’t have to rely on any electricity provider as the Corolla Cross is self-charging. No fuss with finding a charging station when you’re out or wondering if you’ll have grid power to charge your car at home. The end result is that you get to save more on fuel while reducing your carbon footprint. While the unique engine of the Corolla Cross is probably the coolest aspect of the car, its capabilities don’t stop there.
The Toyota Corolla Cross has an array of intuitive safety features that help keep you out of harm’s way. Some of these features are adaptive cruise control, lane-keeping assist, blind spot monitoring and more. As always, with Toyota – you have options! There are five different models available in the Toyota Corolla Cross range.
While the Corolla Cross is designed with style and optimised for functionality, there still might be some customisations you’d like to add. Toyota even offers several themed packages for accessories.

All parts in your car should always be kept in good condition, and some are more important than others.
When looking to replace parts, you may be swayed to look outside of your Toyota Dealership. Either by a persuasive mechanic or a convincing neighbourhood garage. It can sound like an easier and cheaper option. However, it can wreak havoc on your new investment. Buying parts that are not pre-approved or genuine can damage your car. Over and above the damage, certain warranties are made null and void when you introduce unapproved parts.
