Toyota Corolla Cross facelift launched in Indonesia – 1.8L HEV hybrid-only, single CBU variant at RM165k

Toyota has launched the Corolla Cross facelift in Indonesia, five years after the original model appeared in the country.

The crossover is now available solely as a hybrid – the pre-facelift’s pure-ICE variant is no more. The HEV facelift is priced at Rp 603.5 juta (RM164,757) and Toyota Indonesia’s website says that the CBU import is a spot order with an indent time of minimum three months.

Equipment highlights include a new EV-style grille and bumper design with new LED headlamps, a panoramic retractable glass roof, 12.3-inch multi-information digital display, 10-inch infotainment head unit with wireless smartphone connectivity, new rear lights and an electronic parking brake that retires the ancient foot-operated brake.

At the heart of the HEV powertrain is a 2ZR-FXE 1.8-litre engine with 98 PS and 142 Nm of torque. The Atkinson cycle unit is paired to an electric motor rated at 72 PS and 163 Nm, taking juice from a nickel-metal hydride (Ni-MH) battery. Total system output is 122 PS and an E-CVT specially designed for hybrids transmits power to the front wheels.

In Malaysia, we have the 1.8 HEV, priced at RM140,800, along with a 1.8V that kicks off the range at RM133,800. The latter’s 139 PS/172 Nm 1.8L engine goes it alone without electric help, and the gearbox is a regular CVT with seven virtual speeds. At the top of the Malaysian range is the 1.8 HEV GR Sport at RM148,800. This is a new variant as the pre-facelift GR Sport was not offered as a hybrid.
