How much fuel does the 2021 Yaris Cross GX Petrol 2WD use?

Toyota Australia quotes 5.4 L/100km combined. The Green Vehicle Guide certifies the same figure and breaks it into 6.6 L/100km urban and 4.8 L/100km extra-urban, with 124 g/km CO2 to Euro 5.

What is the kerb weight of the 2021 Yaris Cross Petrol 2WD?

Toyota Australia's November 2021 spec table does not publish a kerb weight per grade. It prints a range for the whole powertrain (1140-1185 kg petrol 2WD, 1190-1235 kg hybrid 2WD, 1265-1305 kg hybrid AWD), so we have left the kerb weight blank rather than guess which end of the range this grade sits at. The gross vehicle weight is 1600 kg.

Can the 2021 Yaris Cross Petrol 2WD tow?

Yes, but modestly: 1250 kg braked and 550 kg unbraked. The petrol 2WD is the only version rated above 400 kg.

How much boot space does the 2021 Yaris Cross Petrol 2WD have?

390 litres VDA maximum. The AWD hybrid drops to 314 litres, so the 2WD cars are the more practical load carriers.

Does the 2021 Yaris Cross GX have satellite navigation?

No. Toyota lists built-in satellite navigation with SUNA traffic for the GXL and Urban only. The GX still gets the 7-inch touchscreen, DAB+ digital radio, Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, so phone-based navigation works.
