As successful as the Toyota Corolla Cross is, it is admittedly uninteresting from a petrolhead’s perspective. However, Toyota has decided to revamp its image with the help of an alternative fuel source that isn’t electricity. Just as the title mentioned, under the hood of this Corolla Cross H2 Concept is a hydrogen-fuelled combustion engine that powers the GR Corolla H2 at the 2022 Super Taikyu endurance races in Japan.

By now, you would’ve learned that the initial allocation of 750 units of the imported (CBU, Thailand) 2021 Toyota Corolla Cross 1.8G are already sold out. Deliveries will commence immediately. Dealers are still taking order for the higher range 1.8V variant, but deliveries for 1.8V will only commence in July (thus losing out on the Penjana sales tax discount). Buyers can still place a booking for the entry-variant 1.8G, but dealers will manage customers’ expectations as the next batch of 1.8G mo
