Personally, it is interesting to see SUVs dominating the car world.

With more manufacturers offering their popular models as an SUV, I do have a feeling that we’ll be seeing more SUV launches like this.

It’s funny that Mitsubishi did the same with Eclipse Cross, and got extreme hate for it. But the world is more welcoming towards the Corolla Cross.

Anyways, Toyota Corolla Cross is already available across all Toyota Showrooms in Nepal.
