Toyota Corolla Cross Hybrid Faces Strong Competition From BYD Song Pro That Hits Sales Record and Threatens Toyota Model Leadership

The Toyota Corolla Cross hybrid, one of the leading hybrid SUVs in the Brazilian market, has faced strong competition from the BYD Song Pro. With declining sales and a growing preference for the model from BYD, the competition between these two SUVs promises to be fierce in the coming months, according to Web Motors.

Drop in Sales of Corolla Cross Hybrid

In October, the Corolla Cross hybrid recorded its worst performance of 2024, with only 898 units registered. This number contrasts sharply with the sales peak in May, right after the model’s facelift, when 1,304 units were sold. Since the Song Pro’s entry in July, sales of the Corolla Cross have started to decline, reflecting the growing popularity of the competitor.

Impressive Growth of BYD Song Pro

The BYD Song Pro, launched in July 2024, started modestly, with 442 units sold in the first month. However, the BYD SUV quickly gained traction, reaching a record 4,083 registrations in December, becoming the best-selling hybrid car during that period.

Price and Versions Comparison

Both SUVs offer competitive hybrid options:

Toyota Corolla Cross:
- XRV Hybrid: R$ 206.290
- XRX Hybrid: R$ 212.890
BYD Song Pro:
- GL: R$ 189.800
- GS: R$ 199.800

With more affordable prices, the BYD Song Pro presents a competitive advantage, which may explain part of its rapid growth in the market.

Apesar dos 2 terem o híbrido no nome, a tecnologia do BYD está muito a frente pela autonomia da bateria e plug in. Isso que fez o Corolla perder mercado.

China has been trying for 13 years to build a railway in the Gobi Desert to reach Mongolia, and there are still 20 kilometers left that no one can finish due to a problem that seems impossible to solve.

Without a blueprint, without an engineer, and using scrap from the dump, a father spends 15 years building an 18-room castle for his daughter, featuring tram tracks, 13 fireplaces, and over 700 m², which may now be demolished.

Billions of barrels on the equatorial margin could lead Amapá to double its oil production in Brazil — the state wants to enter the route of companies in the Campos Basin, attract investments, and boost jobs and businesses in the oil and gas sector.

Seen from space, a colossal volcano nearly 5,000 meters high in Russia has released 1,600 km of smoke over the Pacific, forming “devil’s horns” of lava and revealing the brutal force of the Ring of Fire.

Inside an active volcano in Africa, residents use volcanic rocks to build houses in an impressive setting.

After 14 years of waiting, a rammed earth mansion built in 1702 in the North Zone of São Paulo will become a park with leisure facilities and green areas, with a million-dollar investment.
