True to previously provided information, on September 14, 2021, Toyota has officially unveiled the Corolla Cross model in the Japanese market. Corolla Cross will be positioned between the C-HR and RAV4 in Toyota’s product line.

Meanwhile, the rear bumper comes with a chrome splint, surrounding the reflector.
