The Toyota Yaris Cross, a hybrid SUV manufactured in northern France, has received a refreshed design that updates its appearance and features while keeping its original qualities of simplicity, dependability, and a full-time four-wheel drive system, which is uncommon in its class. The vehicle has been a commercial hit, with over 200,000 units sold in Europe in 2025, including more than 32,000 in France. Toyota chose to make small, incremental changes instead of a complete redesign, introducing a honeycomb grille in body color and new headlights for a more confident look without altering the car's identity. Produced in Onnaing, near Valenciennes, the Yaris Cross is the most-produced model in France for several years. The lineup includes multiple trims: the "Design" trim features more comfortable seats, a smartphone induction charger, and ambient lighting; the "Trail" trim includes two-tone upholstery, an electric tailgate, 18-inch wheels, and a bronze color; and the "GR Sport" trim adds a specific front bumper with extra air intakes, sport seats with red stitching, and firmer suspension settings. All versions of the Yaris Cross are powered by the same three-cylinder 1.5-liter hybrid engine, available in 116 or 130 horsepower. This engine is known for its low fuel consumption and high reliability, which helps maintain customer loyalty. The hybrid system provides smooth, efficient, and economical driving, especially in cities, where electric mode reduces fuel costs. Toyota provides an online fuel savings calculator on its website to help customers estimate potential savings based on their annual mileage and driving habits. The Yaris Cross is 4.20 meters long, making it easy to handle in urban environments while offering the driving position and look of a real SUV. It is versatile, suitable for daily use, weekend trips, and professional travel. Its standout feature is the AWD-i system, available with the 130 horsepower hybrid, which adds an electric motor on the rear axle to provide four-wheel drive. This system improves traction on slippery roads, trails, or light snow without reducing the hybrid's fuel efficiency and is exempt from the ecological penalty according to the 2026 scale. The Yaris Cross starts from 29,500 euros for the hybrid 116 horsepower with the "Dynamic" trim, and from 32,200 euros for the hybrid 130 horsepower "Design" trim. The full-time four-wheel drive AWD-i is available from 34,200 euros, up to the top-of-the-range "Trail" trim at 37,600 euros.
