Corolla Cross in 2026 — what's new
The Corolla Cross enters 2026 with a facelifted three-variant Malaysian line-up: 1.8V, 1.8 HEV and 1.8 HEV GR Sport. The latest update is concentrated on the hybrid GR Sport, which gets a new grille, extra GR logos and a sportier cabin while retaining its RM148,800 price. The two HEVs produce 168 hp, against 138 hp for the 1.8V.

Which variant to buy
Most buyers should choose the 1.8 HEV at RM140,800. Its RM7,000 step over the 1.8V brings the petrol-hybrid powertrain and 168 hp rather than 138 hp, while retaining front-wheel drive, CVT automatic transmission and five seats. Pay RM148,800 for the HEV GR Sport if you specifically want its new grille, extra GR logos and sportier cabin. The RM8,000 gap buys those GR changes; check the equipment list before assuming further mechanical differences.

Toyota Corolla Cross buyer's guides & reviews
Verdict
It is a no-drama family crossover with a petrol choice and a frugal hybrid route, backed by Toyota’s reliability reputation. The 1.8 HEV adds 30 hp over the V for RM7,000, making it the sensible centre of the range. Pricing is not bargain territory: the entry Corolla Cross costs more than the RM129,900 MG HS and RM129,639 Kia Sportage, though it undercuts the RM134,469 Mazda CX-5.
