Pokdepinion: We can finally say goodbye to the dreaded foot brake for the Corolla Cross. I wished this model popped up a bit earlier as it now feels a little outdated given recent BEV SUV designs but then again, its preceding model was pretty good as is so I’m sure this will still serve a whole bunch of people well in Malaysia.
