Friday, April 24, 2020 IST
2020 Toyota Yaris Cross is based on the TNGA-B platform and uses the 1.5-litre petrol-electric engine as the Yaris supermini
Just as we informed, Toyota has officially revealed a brand new compact crossover dubbed the Yaris Cross today. It was expected to make global premiere at the 2020 Geneva International Motor Show in Switzerland but the cancellation of the exhibition led to postponement of many unveils.
Following the route of some other brands, Toyota did not wait and unveiled the five-seater online. It must be noted that the compact crossover has been designed and developed for the European markets. As its name suggests, it has plenty in common with the latest Yaris supermini hatchback.
As for the performance, the Toyota Yaris Cross derives power from the same 1.5-litre petrol engine connected to an electric motor and a lithium-ion battery pack. The three-cylinder unit develops a maximum power output of 79 bhp and 139.7 Nm of peak torque to form a hybrid system.
The hybrid technology helps in the compact crossover running on electricity at lower speeds. The Japanese manufacturer will offer two-wheel-drive as standard and an all-wheel-drive configuration as an option. The Toyota Yaris Cross rides on the flexible TNGA-B platform as the Yaris.
