NEXT STAGE: New in 2021?

Likely to be known as the Toyota Corolla Cross, this subcompact crossover will split the burgeoning segment with the older, Japan-built C-HR when it goes into production alongside a twin from Mazda at the new joint plant in Alabama. Expect a hotter hatch than the C-HR, and one that could be a better draw for young buyers looking for their first Toyota but who might not want a sedan. It should be in showrooms very late in 2021, but it may slip into 2022, given the delays this year from COVID-19.
