After a wait of months rather than years, Toyota Pakistan has finally launched its first locally manufactured hybrid electric CSUV of Pakistan, Corolla Cross. The company unveiled the crossover during an event in Karachi last week, and today, it released the official specs and features, price, and images of the vehicle. It is pertinent to mention that the car is launched in two variants, and here are the salient options of the new offering by Toyota Pakistan.

Importantly, these are salient options in the first locally manufactured hybrid electric CSUV of Pakistan by Toyota, and the detailed specs and features will be revealed next week with the official launch of the vehicle. Toyota was among the first companies to announce a local hybrid car in Pakistan and invested $100 million in the plant and production. During a meeting, the company even showed the vehicle to former Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif, who appreciated the company’s effort. 

The new Corolla Cross would be a breath of fresh air for the company and may kickstart a new era of sales. It would also suit the local car industry, which has been facing challenging circumstances for the last couple of years. Hopefully, the new Corolla Cross will be a massive success for Toyota Pakistan.
