747 Used Toyota Yaris Cross cars for sale

Powering the Yaris Cross is a 1.5-litre petrol engine supported by a self-charging hybrid system. In total, the Yaris Cross produces 114 bhp, with the electric motors providing a nice wave of power during acceleration. Notably, the car can run on electric power alone at speeds of up to 80 mph, saving a lot of fuel in the process. Thanks to the self-charging hybrid system, the Yaris Cross can achieve up to 64 mpg, making it one of the most fuel-efficient used SUVs on the market.

For those seeking a bit more capability, a four-wheel drive version of the Yaris Cross is available, which features upgraded independent suspension to help tackle wet and bumpy terrain. This version also includes a limited-slip differential, which more effectively distributes available engine power to provide more grip on slippery surfaces.

The Yaris Cross also features B (engine braking) mode thanks to the hybrid system. Best used when descending steep hills, the car uses regenerative braking to slow the vehicle down while charging the electric batteries.

The Yaris Cross has a high-up driving position, making it easy to get in and out of as well as improving visibility on the road. The rear seats comfortably fit two adults and accommodate a third, but it might be a tight squeeze. Thanks to the high roofline, rear passengers have plenty of headroom, but legroom can feel slightly tighter for taller adults.

Loading cargo into the car is made easy thanks to foldable read seats, which increase the space in the rear from the already decent 397-litre boot. Those opting for the four-wheel drive option should note rear boot space is slightly compromised by 70 litres to accommodate the additional mechanical components. In line with most of its competitors, the Yaris Cross features two ISOFIX child seat anchor points in the rear.

Scoring a 5-star safety rating by the Euro NCAP, the Yaris Cross is fitted with a number of safety features, including Toyota's safety sense technology which helps to prevent collisions and keep drivers safe.

The Safety Sense package includes Road Sign Assist, which reads road signs and tells you the speed limit on the dashboard's display. Lane trace assist, automatic high beam and a pre-collision warning system are also included as standard.
