The 2023 Toyota Corolla Cross is a great choice for drivers who need an SUV with plenty of features but without the hefty price tag.

This new model offers the same safety and reliability that Toyota has come to be known for, all in a smaller package.

The Corolla Cross gets better gas mileage than its bigger brother, the 2023 Toyota RAV4, with EPA ratings up to 37 MPG on the highway.

Additionally, the Corolla Cross offers more storage space in both the cargo area and cabin than its sibling, giving you plenty of room to store groceries or luggage.

Finally, while the RAV4 may offer more off-roading capability, most drivers will be perfectly happy with what they get from the Corolla Cross.

[{"selector":"#anim-21625689-bc84-4925-abba-1c5ead74c407 [data-leaf-element=\"true\"]","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(-10.622917969795662%, 0, 0) translate(-25%, 0%) scale(1.5)","translate3d(0%, 0, 0) translate(0%, 0%) scale(1)"]},"delay":0,"duration":2000,"fill":"forwards"}] [{"selector":"#anim-363b54bb-5ad3-4c1f-8bd6-1b51def59a86","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-43eaa36a-bedd-46b0-91be-cca99c69e695","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(0px, 137.67753%, 0)","translate3d(0px, 0px, 0)"]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}]

Ultimately, it comes down to deciding which combination of size and features makes more sense for your lifestyle and for many drivers,

[{"selector":"#anim-2627d108-7148-4129-8ec6-d342652775ae [data-leaf-element=\"true\"]","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(-30.37922754373848%, 0, 0) translate(-25%, 0%) scale(1.5)","translate3d(0%, 0, 0) translate(0%, 0%) scale(1)"]},"delay":0,"duration":2000,"fill":"forwards"}] [{"selector":"#anim-2bfe65e7-d7e9-466d-be73-81d0a89f9f84","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-d67b0f8e-fe54-4271-b844-833e1d4b6ff1","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(0px, 146.32414%, 0)","translate3d(0px, 0px, 0)"]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}]

That allows for more room for the driver and passenger to move around
