For the second year in a row, the Automobile Journalists Association of Canada (AJAC) has named the Toyota Corolla Cross as the "Best Small Utility Vehicle" in Canada for 2023 as part of the annual awards ceremony for the car, Canadian Truck and Utility Vehicle of the Year. With this distinction, the Corolla Cross qualifies for the Canadian Utility Vehicle of the Year Award, which will be announced in February!
Following a rigorous process of tests conducted by a group of the best automobile journalists in Canada, the utility vehicle has stood out for its bold and assured style, its surprisingly spacious and versatile interior and for its driving experience focused on the needs of its user.
Cyril Dimitris, Vice President, Toyota Canada Inc. declared that “The Toyota Corolla Cross blends the driving fun and agility of a sedan with the versatility and go-anywhere attitude of an SUV, all in a compact form factor that’s easy to own and easy to drive.”
