Toyota Announces Development of Monocoque Pickup Derived from Corolla Cross, with Exclusive Features and Advanced Safety Systems, Set to Launch in the First Half of 2026, and Manufactured in Sorocaba, São Paulo.

Toyota is expanding its product lineup with a highly anticipated launch: a monocoque pickup derived from the popular Corolla Cross. With production scheduled to take place in Sorocaba, São Paulo, based on information released by AutoEsporte, this new model promises to combine the robustness of a pickup with the sophistication and comfort already known from the brand’s SUV.

Sharing the TNGA platform of the Corolla Cross, the pickup not only inherits characteristics from its “sibling” SUV, but also innovates with exclusive components, such as distinctive headlights and bumpers, and a conventionally opening bed cover. Inside, the highlight is the new electronic parking brake system with Auto Hold function and exclusive details in the seats, door trims, and dashboard, reinforcing the unique identity of the model.

What Will Be the Engine of the New Corolla Pickup?

Under the hood, the entry-level versions come with the 2.0 Dynamic Force Flex engine producing 177 hp with ethanol and 169 hp with gasoline, paired with a CVT transmission that simulates seven gears. For those seeking even more power and efficiency, Toyota will offer a plug-in hybrid version, combining a 2.5 gasoline engine from the RAV4 Hybrid and two electric motors. This setup delivers a superior driving experience, with a combined output of 222 hp, which can be increased due to the Flex system.

Toyota Safety and Technology

In terms of safety, the new Toyota pickup makes no compromises. Equipped with six airbags, traction and stability controls, hill-start assist, and ISOFIX anchors for child seats, the vehicle also incorporates the advanced Toyota Safety Sense. This system includes Pre-Collision System, Lane Departure Alert, and Adaptive Cruise Control, ensuring safer and more comfortable journeys.

With slightly larger dimensions than the SUV, including a wheelbase of 2.80 meters, the new pickup promises not only performance but also expanded space and comfort for all occupants.

Toyota is betting on the success of its new Corolla Cross pickup to attract an audience that values the versatility of a pickup without sacrificing the comfort and technology of a high-end SUV. The anticipation is high, and the automotive market is already eagerly awaiting more updates on this promising launch. Comments and opinions on this innovation are welcome and can be shared below.

Success of the Corolla Cross in Brazil

The Toyota Corolla Cross has been a resounding success in Brazil since its launch, quickly establishing itself as one of the most desired SUVs in the market. This phenomenon can be attributed to various factors that resonate well with Brazilian consumers.

Since its launch, the Toyota Corolla Cross quickly became one of the best sellers in the SUV segment in Brazil, which will likely be no different with the new Corolla pickup. The combination of quality, comfort, technology, and energy efficiency has attracted a wide range of consumers, from families looking for a spacious and safe car to young people wanting a stylish and economical vehicle.

The oldest tree in the world, alive since before the birth of Jesus Christ, is cut down in a scientific study and the case changes environmental preservation rules.

Seen from space, an image taken by an astronaut shows an unlikely oasis in the Saudi Arabian desert, protected by a terrain that slows the advance of sand, surrounded by green circles, remnants of an extinct lake and nearly 10,000 years of preserved history.

An entire island in the Pacific wants to surround itself with a colossal barrier against the ocean to try to escape increasingly violent waves and not be swallowed by the sea in the coming decades.

After ten days orbiting the Moon, science confirms that the astronauts of the Artemis II mission return with altered bodies.

With 7.4 trillion tons of artificial snow pumped in 10 years, an extreme operation could stabilize the West Antarctic ice sheet and prevent a sea level rise of more than 3 meters, but it would require snow cannons, ocean water, and energy on an almost industrial scale at the end of the world.

Peru built a tunnel at an altitude of 4,738 meters cutting through the Andes Mountains, and the road leading to it reaches 4,818 meters, making it the highest paved road in the entire world.

Stored for over 100 years, the first underwater tunnel in Latin America receives a decisive boost with a loan of R$ 2.5 billion signed in April and promises to connect Santos and Guarujá, on the coast of São Paulo, in just 5 minutes.

The reign of carpets in the entrance hall has come to an end: aluminum mats emerge as a new trend that hardly gets dirty, lasts longer, and improves the hygiene of spaces.

The construction of houses with cement wood blocks is surprising workers; it uses a direct fitting system without complications and can make the work up to 100 times faster than the conventional method.

The government announces a new clinical research program and outlines how the amount of R$120 million in investments will be distributed among hospitals and universities of the SUS.

Xiaomi (sim, a mobile phone) received 200,000 orders in 3 minutes for its electric SUV that travels 835 km on a single charge and costs less than a Tesla…

It costs around R$ 40,000, has a reliable Fire engine, and has been a sales success since its launch; see if it’s worth buying a used Fiat Punto in 2026.

Toyota transforms Yaris Cross into a mini RAV4 and surprises with a 1.5 hybrid engine of up to 130 hp, unprecedented 4×4 traction, a 12.3” dashboard, 10.5” multimedia system, and a more aggressive GR Sport version than the Brazilian model with 111 hp.
