Back-to-back road trips in the gasoline and hybrid versions of the Toyota Corolla Cross help us determine if we have loaner’s remorse.
would have been a better yearlong loan. After driving the two models back-to-back and taking both vehicles on 600-mile road trips, we're ready to provide an answer.Starting with the car in which we've logged the most distance, the 2022 Corolla Cross LE's honest charm hasn't worn off after nearly 7,500 miles of driving. A recent trip from Los Angeles to Mammoth Mountain for some skiing and back again has revealed even more about our long-term loan.
We've come to trust and rely on the adaptive cruise control and lane-centering assist after our most recent road trip through the Eastern Sierra region of California. Once the following distance has been locked in using the buttons on the steering wheel, the Corolla Cross modulates its speed naturally, braking and accelerating smoothly. We also appreciate that the 2.0-liter I-4 locks in at an optimal rpm for cruising, which makes the ride as quiet as it possibly can be.
Although it suffers from many of the detractions commonly associated with the subcompact SUV segment, the Corolla Cross LE is a respectable choice for those that plan on spending most of their time driving around town but take the occasional road trip to the mountains or the desert. Toyota outfits its smallest SUV with just enough clever packaging tricks and adaptive driver equipment to make the Corolla Cross a practical solution for escaping city life.
Aside from having more pep than the gasoline-only Corolla Cross, Toyota's smallest hybrid SUV has other merits that shine on a road trip. We've mentioned before that our long-term 'ute gets torsion-beam-type suspension in the rear, a setup that connects the rear wheels with a beam that acts as a spring that twists. All Corolla Cross Hybrid models receive fully independent suspension with a rear multi-link setup, which allows each wheel to move on its own, damped individually.
