Was a bit surprised to see John here. Love your review as always.

[peterhe]

"I am John Law. This is Chasing Cars." has gone? Shocked 😳. Anyway, I like your Casio.

[aerienix]

This caught me off guard. John being here, that is.

[DEATHSTARER]

What’s John doing here? Did John get ‘chased’ out by Tom?

[mpfunzenimapholi]

I subscribe on Wheels Australia because of John. Here in South Africa it's selling well and in top 5 on sales charts every month. One need not to wait for order as it's assembled here, even for export market.

My favourite of all the Corolla Cross reviews. Well done.

[nathanwhite]

I love it. Test drove it and it was amazing. I feel it is great value so much so I cancelled my order of the Yaris Cross Urban Hybrid and ordered the Corolla Cross GXL hybrid.

I cancelled my RAV XSE order once Corolla Cross was released. Corolla Cross sizing is better for tight city parking spaces I need to deal with. I cannot afford a high quality EV so a quality hybrid engine 2.0 is a good option for now. Considering it’s going to cost $50K I do worry about it’s future value post 2030 when there are a lot more EVs on Australian roads. I agonise over whether to stick with my 2016 Mazda 3 and drive for another 10 years. It’s so hard to know what ICE used car market is going to look like in 10 years.

I just tested Atmos FWD and it was a nice drive, but it could use a lot more power. I hope it will get more potent hybrid config in next facelift. The drive-away price for Atmos is very much in "entry level luxury" territory, ~$52K (FWD) and $55K (AWD). Toyota has become entry-level luxury car brand. Toyota's waiting lists (particularly for hybrids) is the longest in the industry today, ~12-18 months. It appears that people are prepared to pay extra for Toyota cars.

Would love to know how visible the jungle green is on the road. We don't really want a car that camouflages to the road, do we? Also, what's the road clearance like? That's a basic AWD requirement. If it's comparing to the rav4, is the road clearance higher or lower?

[eruite]

Wait... what's John Law doing on the Wheels channel? Did he move on from Chasing Cars? 😮

[ronsmith]

Good review. Thanks. I am a retired single and the Corolla Cross would be plenty big enough for me. I just ordered a 2WD drive hybrid Atmos in jungle khaki. If I am paying >$52, 000 for a car I hope I am offered what I want. I have to wait at least several months for it. I don't need a sunroof. The cheap look must be Toyota's way to get you to pay more for the Atmos, presumably its better.

Went with US version CC SE AWD HYBRID. Fantastic for seniors!

[solid]

This powertrain on a Mazda cx-30 would be my perfect car.

[TheTHORDummy]

Ahh I was waiting for this!!! Good job!

[gordonleung]

i think everyone should consider the added price to the Rav4 in 2023 when comparing to the corolla cross, the price increase for the Rav4 in 2023 is quite a lot with both the tech upgrade price and global price increase. The corolla cross will not be only 2 grand cheaper after these added costs to the Rav4

[glowe]

Good review John. For $45, 000 though, you get manual seats, no rear armrest and scratchy plastic bits. For $45k of hard earned, I expect much better that that, I really do. I don't see it as value for money to be honest. And that exhaust system hanging down looks dreadful 🤨.

[stanislawsekscinski]

After 9 weeks -batery had to be replaced.
I was told to drive more, just to charge the batery. It is not for seniors.

[SajaiBaby]

Miss you in Chasing Cars! Follower from India! :)

[betatestinglife]

There's a presenter on Chasing Cars with the exact same name and looks almost identical to John. The amount of resemblance is uncanny!
