Toyota Yaris Cross (2021-present) Pros and Cons

Pros	Cons
The hybrid sips fuel, especially around town	Quite cramped in the back
Promises the first-rate reliability you'd expect of Toyota	The 4x4 version has less luggage room
Lots of boot space for a small car	Not as much fun to drive as a Ford Puma

Quick Summary

The Toyota Yaris Cross (2021-present) is a small SUV that blends the compact dimensions of the Yaris hatchback with a taller, more practical body. As a self-charging hybrid, it competes against rivals like the Ford Puma and Peugeot 2008 by delivering outstanding fuel economy. The styling is fresh and modern, and while the interior is solidly built, it can feel a little plain. Practicality is a highlight with a generous 397-litre boot, although rear passenger space is somewhat restricted.

Powered by a 1.5-litre hybrid system and a smooth CVT automatic gearbox, the Yaris Cross is exceptionally frugal, capable of 55-60mpg, especially in urban environments. The driving experience is competent and easy, but it lacks the engagement of a Ford Puma, and its firm ride can feel unsettled over harsher bumps. Equipment levels are good across the range, and with a timing chain instead of a belt, long-term running costs are kept impressively low, reinforcing its status as a reliable and sensible choice.

Best for: Buyers prioritising exceptional fuel economy, low running costs, and Toyota's reputation for reliability in a practical small SUV package.

Not ideal for: Drivers seeking an engaging, fun-to-drive experience, a plush ride quality, or generous space for rear-seat passengers.


Comparison vs Key Rivals



The Verdict

You should buy the Yaris Cross if: You are looking for a small SUV that majors on fuel efficiency, reliability, and low running costs, especially for urban driving.

Consider alternatives if: A fun driving experience, a comfortable ride on all surfaces, or ample rear-seat space are your top priorities.

Competitive Position: The Toyota Yaris Cross is a highly compelling option in the small SUV class for pragmatic buyers. It stands out with its super-efficient hybrid system and the promise of rock-solid Toyota reliability. While it can't match the Ford Puma for driving fun, its blend of practicality, standard equipment, and exceptionally low running costs makes it a standout choice for the head rather than the heart.
