The 2026 Toyota Corolla Cross puts a Corolla-sized footprint on an SUV body. It comes in three grades: L, LE, and XLE. Front-wheel drive is standard on all three, and all-wheel drive is available on every one. Our team at Toyota of Glendale can tell you what is on the lot now and what is arriving soon.
Every grade uses the same engine. It is a 2.0-liter Dynamic Force four-cylinder rated at 169 horsepower, paired with a CVTi-S transmission. What changes between builds is the drivetrain. That choice affects both fuel economy and cargo room. Ratings below are EPA estimates published at fueleconomy.gov.
| Specification | Front-Wheel Drive | All-Wheel Drive |
|---|---|---|
| EPA-Estimated MPG | 31 city / 33 highway / 32 combined | 29 city / 31 highway / 30 combined |
| Traction | Power to the front wheels | Dynamic Torque Control sends up to 50 percent of power rearward when needed, and disengages when it is not |
| Cargo behind rear seats | 24.0 cubic feet | 21.5 cubic feet |
| Grade availability | Standard on L, LE, and XLE | Available on L, LE, and XLE |

EPA-estimated fuel economy figures are for comparison purposes only. Your actual mileage will vary depending on driving conditions, how you drive and maintain your vehicle, battery age/condition, and other factors.
All three grades include Toyota Safety Sense 3.0, wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, and rear-seat vents. Each grade builds on the one below it. The biggest visible change for 2026 is the larger pair of displays on the XLE.

Every 2026 Corolla Cross seats five. The 60/40 split-folding rear seat lets you carry longer items and a rear passenger at the same time. Rear-seat vents are standard on all three grades. At 8.1 inches, ground clearance gives a raised view of traffic. For a fuller breakdown of features and specs, see our 2026 Corolla Cross and Corolla Cross Hybrid research page.

Front-wheel drive is standard on the L, LE, and XLE, and all-wheel drive is available on all three. All-wheel drive uses Toyota’s Dynamic Torque Control system, which sends up to 50 percent of engine power to the rear wheels when it is needed and disengages when it is not. Front-wheel drive returns higher EPA-estimated fuel economy and slightly more cargo room, so the choice comes down to how often you expect to need the extra traction.
Toyota Safety Sense 3.0 is standard on all three grades. It includes Pre-Collision System with Pedestrian Detection, Full-Speed Range Dynamic Radar Cruise Control, Lane Departure Alert with Steering Assist, Lane Tracing Assist, Road Sign Assist, Proactive Driving Assist, and Automatic High Beams. Blind Spot Monitor with Rear Cross-Traffic Alert is standard on the LE and XLE.
