Exterior grille mesh design changes

In this minor change, the exterior design has been changed and the roof spoiler of the “Z” and “Z Adventure” grades has been changed. The design of the grille mesh has also been changed to differentiate the models, with the exception of the “GR SPORT” grade.

I think it’s safe to say that the design has remained almost unchanged since the only thing that has changed is the mesh of the grille.

New colors added to exterior body colors

New body colors have been added: Massive Gray (1L6) and Attitude Black Mica (218) x Massive Gray (1L6). “Massive Gray (1L6)” is already used in the “Voxy” and “Corolla Cross” and is attracting attention as Toyota’s recommended color.

Toyota New Yaris Cross Partially improved infotainment system renewal

It is equipped with a new infotainment system, and in addition to the “Connected Navigation” that is also used in the new Noah Voxy, Apple CarPlay and Android Auto are also available. Additionally, a USB-C charging port has also been added. This system has a smartphone-friendly UI, but there are some issues with ease of use. The final guidance provided by the navigation system is also not satisfactory, and we hope that it will improve with an updated version.

Toyota’s new Yaris Cross adopts partially improved “Toyota Safety Sense” proactive driving assist

It predicts potential risks while driving, such as “pedestrians crossing” and “the possibility of pedestrians jumping out,” and provides driving assistance to avoid danger. This improves the driver’s sense of security. It also has a function that automatically decelerates in response to the vehicle in front or curves in front, reducing the need for frequent brake operations. This makes driving on public roads smoother and provides gentle support to the driver.

Steering and deceleration support for pedestrians, cyclists, and parked vehicles

It anticipates risks and supports steering and brake operations to prevent you from getting too close to danger.

Deceleration support for preceding vehicles

When the vehicle detects an interruption by a vehicle in front or an adjacent vehicle, the vehicle decelerates gently in response to the driver turning off the accelerator to prevent the vehicle from getting too close.

Deceleration support for curves

If it determines that the vehicle is traveling too fast for the curve in front of it, it will gradually decelerate in response to the driver turning off the accelerator.

Deceleration support when turning left or right

When it detects that the vehicle is approaching a signalized intersection, it automatically decelerates in response to the driver’s accelerator off and turn signal operation, ensuring sufficient margin for maneuver when making a right or left turn.

Continuous steering support when driving within lane

By anticipating driver operations and changing the steering reaction force, the system suppresses unnecessary operations and prevents delays in operation, supporting smooth driving.

Toyota New Yaris Cross Partial Improvement Thoughts

This time, the improvements to the Japanese model of the “Yaris Cross” had some disappointing changes that differed from the European model. European models have an updated hybrid system with a new transaxle with a larger electric motor and improved software. This increases maximum system power from 116ps (85kW) to 130ps (96kW), and the new motor’s torque has also increased by 30%, from 141Nm (104 lb-ft) to 185Nm (136 lb-ft). In addition, the interior of the European model adopts a 12.3-inch TFT display and a “full LCD digital meter”, and the “7-inch Display Audio” has been discontinued in favor of the “8-inch Display Audio” and “10.5-inch Display Audio Plus”. I did. These differences are quite large, but the Japanese model may also change to the above specifications due to future improvements.

Some of the great improvements made this time are the adoption of “Toyota Safety Sense” proactive driving assist, a new infotainment system, and the addition of an armrest as a genuine product.
