The Toyota Yaris Cross (Japanese: トヨタ・ヤリスクロス, Hepburn: Toyota Yarisu Kurosu) is a nameplate used by the Japanese automaker Toyota for two vehicles in the subcompact crossover SUV category (B-segment). The nameplate first appeared for the crossover SUV counterpart of the XP210 model Yaris based on the Toyota New Global Architecture, which went on sale in August 2020 in Japan and in 2021 in Europe with the model code XP210. In May 2023, Toyota released another vehicle with the same name in Indonesia, which is larger and based on the Daihatsu New Global Architecture, with the model code AC200.

Chronology | |
Predecessor | Toyota Ist/Urban Cruiser (XP110)[3][4] |
Primarily marketed for the Japanese, European and Australian markets, the XP210 series Yaris Cross is built on GA-B platform as the XP210 series Yaris hatchback and positioned between the Aygo X or Raize and C-HR in Toyota's crossover SUV lineup. It replaces the Japanese/European market XP110 series Ist/Urban Cruiser.[3][4]
The Yaris Cross was originally planned to be unveiled at the 2020 Geneva Motor Show;[5] however, the show was cancelled due to the COVID-19 pandemic.[6][7] Toyota then released the first pictures and specifications of the Yaris Cross on 23 April 2020.[2][8] The model went on sale in Japan in September 2020, Australia in November 2020 and in Europe in mid-2021.[9]
Development of the vehicle done alongside the Yaris hatchback, led by Yasunori Suezawa as chief engineer and Hideaki Hayashi as deputy chief engineer under the internal "Toyota Compact Car Company".[10] The design of the Yaris Cross is a collaboration between Toyota's European and Japanese studios, combining cues from the Yaris with features from Toyota's larger SUVs such as the more angular RAV4. According to Toyota, the Yaris Cross resembles a diamond when viewed from above because of its wider midsection, which allowed the designers to broaden the wheel arches to achieve a more 'rugged' styling. The dashboard design shares many components with the Yaris hatchback.[11] The wheelbase of the Yaris Cross is identical to the European market Yaris, but the ground clearance is increased by 30 mm (1.2 in) over the standard Yaris.[2]
Toyota offered an all-wheel-drive variant (Intelligent All-Wheel Drive, AWD-i) for the hybrid version, unlike other B-segment SUVs which are predominantly front-wheel drive especially in Europe. The system does not require a driveshaft, and instead utilising an electrified rear axle that supplies power during acceleration or when more traction is required. Under the WLTP test cycle, the i-AWD version of the new Yaris Cross produces 135 grams of CO2 per kilometer, and 120 g/km for the front-wheel drive variant.[12]

The AC200 series Yaris Cross was previewed in Indonesia on 15 May 2023, and is expected to be produced in mid 2023.[27][25]
The development of the model was done by Daihatsu through a joint Toyota-Daihatsu internal company known as Emerging-market Compact Car Company (ECC), under the lead of chief engineer Toru Uda. It shares the DNGA-B platform with the AC100 series Vios/Yaris sedan. Uda mentioned that the front section of the platform is shared with the Avanza/Veloz, while the under section and wheelbase was reworked.[28]
For the petrol model, the AC200 series Yaris Cross is powered by the 1.5-litre 2NR-VE engine rated at 78 kW (106 PS; 105 hp) and 138 N⋅m (14.1 kg⋅m; 102 lb⋅ft). The hybrid model is powered by the 1.5-litre 2NR-VEX engine, which is a world-first application. It is an Atkinson cycle engine based on the 2NR-VE rated at 67 kW (91 PS; 90 hp), combined with a single electric motor producing 59 kW (80 PS; 79 hp) with a total output of 82 kW (111 PS; 110 hp).[29] It is supplemented with a 0.7 kWh lithium-ion battery, which is mounted under the rear seats.[30]
