    Toyota filling in the gaps in their portfolio with this new model. Asian sized imo. Rav4 Tail lights look good already.

    You forget to mention that it makes only 136PS which is less than the oldy and trusty Honda R18 (Civic/HR-V, 141PS/174Nm).

    That 136PS/207Nm can be put to good use if the driver will make the engine rev up to 4K to 6k rpm. If that new crossover is anything bigger than the ASX (2.0L at 150PS/197Nm), it might not be sporty enough.

    Nice! Hope this isnt just a raised Car with "crossover claddings" kagaya ng trend similar with the Subaru XV.

    But judging by the recently launched Yaris Cross, mukhang ok na ok ito.

    As observed in this forum and in the market, it seems power really isn’t what most people are after. I’ve been a proponent of the Rav 4 with its bigger 2.5L engine, but most will choose the other crossovers with tinier 2.0L engines...

    Looks sell, as it carries with it the image. Most Pinoy buyers are not too particular about performance. The PPV captured the hearts and minds of most car buyers as it brings forth three key things - 7 seats for the extended family, diesel fuel is cheaper, and the bigtime image it brings along.

    😂 yung ride height din. Dapat mataas. Also, the bigger the car, the better daw. Kahit na ang sikip sikip na ng mga parking.

    Isa din sigurong factor ang mahal ng Rav4 compared sa ibang options.

    Itong Corolla Cross hopefully bumalik sa smaller size at cheaper price ng older generation na Rav4.

    The Xtrail AWD and the Mazda CX5 AWD both have a 2.5L NA engine. The Forester XT has a powerful 2.0L turbo engine. All three compact crossovers are cheaper than the RAV4 TOTL model which is not even AWD.

    I’m talking about the base Rav 4. At that price I wouldn’t consider those with 2.0L engines.

    Magkano kaya ito locally? If this is between 1.2M to 1.5M, it will surely beat the competition.

    If at 1.2m php, I'd recommend they (Toyota PH) discontinue the TOTL Rush if they are going to push this model as a base model positioning, to limit analysis paralysis. Since it will be a "smaller" Rav4, the TOTL should fall below or just around the "base model " Rav 4 they are selling at 1.7m php.

    Unlikely to be just 1.2M, even if base model.

    And the Rush caters to a different market - walang pake sa refinement mga buyers niyan. Basta mataas, 7 seater, may touchscreen, ok na yan sa kanila. And Rush G is still 100k cheaper at 1.1M.

    So likely the Cross will compete head on with the HRV/XV at 1.3M for the base model and 1.5M for the TOTL gas model (1.8-2M if they bring in a Hybrid TOTL).

    Thai price of the base non-hybrid Corolla Cross Sport 1.8 CVT is 959,000 Baht
    Thai price of the Corolla Altis 1.6G CVT is 879,000 Baht (sold here for ₱1,115,000).
    *Note there is no base M/T Corolla Altis listed in Thailand.

    I guess P1.2M+ is a good estimate as a starting price for the base CVT variant.

    The only other Corolla Cross variants in Thailand are hybrids and based on how the Corolla Altis Hybrid is priced, it won't be cheap.

    Should have just named it differently.

    A Corolla will always be a sedan for me.

    Mukhang kasya ang balikbayan box..

    Mataas din ang location ng alternator. Wading depth will be pretty good. 500mm?

    How are the electronic stuff, are they mounted high too?

    I know the slightly higher Rav4 has a wading depth of "supposedly" 500mm (close to the EcoSport's 550mm).
