Toyota reveals the new Yaris Cross Dynamic grade

The all-new Yaris Cross made its world premiere last year in top-spec Excel grade. Now the distinctly different character of the Dynamic grade model is revealed for the first time.

The Yaris Cross Dynamic displays an authentic SUV character that emphasises its suitability for life beyond the urban sprawl, for time spent exploring and enjoying the great outdoors and open roads. Its go-getting spirit is suggested by the front under-run and lower bumper protection plate at the rear, while the specification also includes silver roof rails and 18-inch alloy wheels with a dark grey finish.

The sense of purpose continues in the cabin, with piano black trim details and black headlining. The supportive seats are upholstered in a supple, leather-like material with a specific Dynamic pattern and there is a signature Warm Gold deco line running across the soft-touch instrument panel and inner door mouldings. Leather is used for the steering wheel and shift lever gaiter.

Yaris Cross Dynamic: Premiere Edition

The Premiere Edition is the ultimate version of the Yaris Cross Dynamic. Exclusive features include leather seat upholstery, unique 18-inch machined alloy wheels and a power tailgate with kick-sensor for hands-free operation. The specification also provides a head-up display and a bi-tone paint finish with range of colour options. It will only be available during the first 12 months of Yaris Cross sales but will be included in the pre-sales reservation programme.

Yaris Cross – all urban, all SUV

Although built on the same modular GA-B platform as the new Yaris hatchback, Yaris Cross has a higher driving position and increased ground clearance. It joins Toyota’s growing hybrid SUV range alongside RAV4 – the world’s original and best-selling recreational SUV – the new seven-seat Highlander and the Toyota C-HR compact crossover. The platform gives the car high body rigidity, a low centre of gravity and a well-balanced chassis, ensuring agile and sure-footed handling and excellent ride comfort.

Its fourth-generation hybrid system is shared with the new Yaris hatchback, where the 114bhp petrol-electric powertrain is expected to deliver low CO2 emissions and a generous level of all-electric EV driving capability.

Yaris Cross customers will be able to specify a number of sophisticated and advanced equipment features. Dependent on grade, these will include intelligent all-wheel drive, wireless mobile connectivity with Toyota Smart Connect and a Toyota Teammate Advanced Park automated parking system.

Full details of the UK model line-up and specifications will be announced soon. A pre-sales period for UK customers will open in May, ahead of the model’s official launch in September. During this time customers will be able to request regular updates and make online reservations or in-person reservations at their local Toyota centre.
