![]() ![]() At 175.6 inches long, the Corolla Cross is almost a foot longer than the 1990s RAV4, but its proportions are similar. The original 1996 RAV4, which shared some parts with the then-current Corolla, was the very first modern crossover SUV. In a way, the new SUV is a return to form for Toyota. The Cross has the same design ethos as the more familiar forms of Corolla. Front passengers get lots of room and a handsome, if conservative, dashboard design. “It’s styled like a smaller RAV4, so it looks very familiar, and being more upright it’s likely to have the room and feel that people expect from an SUV,” Kim says. The Corolla Cross takes a much more traditional approach. Tellingly, in 2020 Toyota sold ten RAV4s for every C-HR, according to data from MotorIntelligence. “It also doesn’t offer all-wheel drive, so it’s a little out of step with the market leaders among small crossovers,” he says. It offers distinctive coupe styling, but sacrifices back seat and cargo space for its looks. Toyota has offered the C-HR for years, Kim says, but it’s much more of a niche product. It’s vital for Toyota to have something strong in that space,” he says. “Now we’re seeing a lot more small, entry-level crossovers that overlap with traditional compact sedans on price. It’s based on the same platform as the C-HR, but it’s distinctly closer in concept to its bigger brother.Įven though car buyers have been shifting to SUVs for years, that change has come slowly to compact cars, which tend to be at the most price-sensitive end of the car market, says Ed Kim, an analyst for industry research firm AutoPacific. The Corolla Cross, which debuted in Asia last year, will slot in between the C-HR and the RAV4. Toyota launched its own diminutive C-HR crossover that very year, but in the face of stiff competition from entrants like the Honda HR-V and Kia Seltos, the automaker is adding a new small crossover: the 2022 Corolla Cross. Toyota’s compact RAV4 has been the best selling non-pickup in America since 2016, but since then even smaller crossover SUVs have proliferated like cherry blossoms in spring. Toyota Safety Sense comes standard on all versions of the Corolla Cross, with blind-spot monitoring and rear cross-traffic alert standard on the LE and XLE models, plus nine airbags throughout the cabin.The 2022 Toyota Corolla Cross uses the same basic platform as the Corolla Sedan, but the two are almost nothing alike visually, and the new crossover is 3 inches taller and sports an SUV-appropriate 8.1 inches of ground clearance. ![]() Wireless charging is standard on LE and XLE models, or you can plug in via the front-mounted USB port, while those in the second row have access to two USB ports. The interiors of each trim also vary, with SofTex faux leather seating available on LE and XLE models with 10-way power-adjustable front seats.Īpple CarPlay and Android Auto will come standard, but you'll have to pay extra for the 8.0-inch touchscreen display with a corresponding 7.0-inch digital instrument cluster. The base L model comes standard with 17-inch steel wheels, while the range-topping XLE gets a sporty set of 18-inch alloys. The Hyundai Venue returns identical figures, but the Nissan Kicks is still the best of the bunch with 33 mpg combined with standard FWD.īuyers will be able to choose from three trims – L, LE, and XLE – each with its own distinct set of features. The front-drive model achieves 32 miles per gallon combined while the AWD versions nets 30 mpg combined. ![]() The Corolla Cross can also tow a measly 1,500 pounds (680 kilograms) in the right spec, and even with all-wheel drive, it returns impressive fuel economy. The suspension is fully independent on the all-wheel-drive model, with a Dynamic Torque Control system that sends up to 50 percent of power to the rear wheels, while the front-drive version gets a new torsion beam setup in the rear. ![]() The company did hint at "more coming next year," suggesting that we will see a hybrid version of the Corolla Cross in 2022. The US-spec Corolla Cross uses a 2.0-liter engine that produces 169 horsepower (126 kilowatts) and 150 pound-feet (203 newton-meters), sent to either the front wheels or all four via a continuously variable transmission ripped from the Corolla S. ![]() ![]() ![]() The videos come out quite good from the Pixel 8, it does not matter if it is day or night. While photos have been the bread and butter of Pixel phones, videos have not been that good. The 2x zoom here is digitally cropped, though it does look plenty sharp. The Pixel ultra-wide camera is wider than before, and still, the images do not look much distorted. The main camera captures the dynamic range and a good amount of detail, and the large aperture lets in more light, so the camera does a pretty good job even in low-light situations. The ultrawide here is upgraded, too, with a 12MP sensor with a f/2.2 aperture. Bread and butter The dual-camera setup on Pixel 8 has a new and improved 50 MP sensor with an f/1.68 aperture, the laser detect autofocus, and to keep the footage as stable as possible, there is both optician and electronic stabilisation at work. But, we reserve the last word for our review as we test it thoroughly. The battery life has been fine, better than what we had experienced on the Pixel 7. It has been working smoothly in day-to-day tasks, though gaming is not its forte. Well, for now, we did not face any of this with the Pixel 8. it has been known for its sub-par performance, heating issues, and whatnot. Powering the Pixel 8 and its slew of AI features is Google’s third-generation in-house chip, the Tensor G3. However, it is to be seen what will come earlier, the seventh-year update or the end of Pixel. If we go by Google’s word, the Pixel 8 should be good to go until 2030. Google has announced a seven-year update cycle for the Pixel 8 series, which includes the Android updates, security patches, and even the feature drops. Call Screen is gaining some smarts too, so it will be much better at blocking spam calls and suggesting contextual replies, though it does not work here in India. Now, you can also summarise webpages, read them aloud, and translate them. Google Assistant is becoming smarter with the Bard integration, though that is not coming anytime soon. And Best Take lets you have the best facial expression in group photos. Google Photos has new AI-assisted tricks, including Audio Magic Eraser to remove background noise and Magic Editor to remove distractions, change lighting, and swap backgrounds. ![]() ![]() Wondering if what you’re experiencing might be an anxiety disorder?

Either way, there is undoubtedly at least one good outcome of the SC's bad reputation - it is pretty affordable on the used car market. Sure, it wasn't as powerful, luxurious, or refined as its predecessors - but the industry trends are a hard stream to swim against. However, if one looked at the tenth-gen Super Coupe objectively, it would be hard to deny that it was a pretty good car - especially for its era. After all, it's the fundamental American car that singlehandedly created the "personal luxury car" term that would come to define the American car industry. But these factors don't matter much to the hardcore fans of the old Thunderbirds - to them, the tenth-gen and the SC are a stain on the T-Birds otherwise distinguished history. It's hard to live up to such a heavy name as Thunderbird when you're being suffocated from all sides by cost-cutting measures, environmental regulations, and European competitors. Of course, the biggest reason why the Super Coupe is so disrespected in the car community is its legacy. Check out free battery charging and engine diagnostic testing while you are in store.

Moreover, the SC came standard with a limited-slip differential and stiffer adjustable shocks. Keep in mind that, after all, the tenth-gen was still a front-engine, RWD coupe with a fully independent suspension all around - double-wishbone in front and multilink in the rear. A decent number that was nevertheless subdued by the hefty weight of over 3,500 pounds and the painfully slow 4-speed automatic.Īnd while SC's performance is not out of this world neither by today's standards nor by the standards of the older T-Birds, it was quite adequate of the time. Even though it was equipped with the rather innovative supercharged, intercooled 3.8L Essex V6, it only made 230 horsepower at most. ![]() The only problem I had was the car going into limp mode.But the Super Coupe was the high-performance version of the Thunderbird - so it must have been fast, right? Not quite. I had mine replaced right before my warranty ran out. I have seen some people comment about the throttle body. Motors are much different now!
