The Corolla Cross utilizes the same 2.0-liter naturally-aspirated inline-4 engine used in its sedan sibling, and it makes just 169 horsepower and 150 lb-ft of torque. The sedan is already a bit of a slouch, and the additional weight doesn't help with acceleration. Toyota doesn't claim 0-60 or top speed figures, but there's hardly any reason to do so. Rivals like the Kia Seltos offer turbocharged power and significantly more torque, so there are better choices if you like your crossover to have a bit of poke. The Toyota's maximum towing capacity is also just 1,500 lbs. All trim levels are available in FWD and AWD. The AWD models come with Dynamic Torque Control, meaning that 50% of the available power can be sent to the rear axle once the front loses traction. It's a basic system, but perfectly fine given the audience Toyota is targeting. The Cross can be ordered with several accessories aimed at adventurous types. You can strap a bicycle to the roof and head to the nearest adventure farm located on the other side of a well-groomed gravel road. In that scenario, a rudimentary AWD system is all you need. A hybrid model is expected shortly, and it will likely be the model to go for if you require more power. If you're a relatively relaxed driver, the standard Corolla Cross should be good enough.2022 Corolla Cross Performance Photos

The Corolla Cross is currently only available with a naturally-aspirated 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine. It delivers 169 hp at 6,600 rpm and 150 lb-ft of torque from 4,400 rpm. It's mated to Toyota's Direct-Shift CVT transmission, as found on certain Corolla sedans. As expected, it's not a racer off the line, although the Direct-Shift CVT transmission features a first gear for acceleration before it switches to the CVT part of the transmission. That gives the Corolla Cross a bit of zing around city streets, but joining fast-moving traffic requires a heavy right foot before the drivetrain becomes comfortable at around 60-70 mph.2022 Toyota Corolla Cross Performance Specs
