Fairwheels take;

Overall exterior and interior of yaris Cross feels and looks great, height of the yaris has been increased from the previous model that make it more adaptable to rough roads but thing that could make it little difficult for off roading is it front wheel driving instead of rear wheel drive. Some important features that are missing in Yaris cross are Android auto and Apple car play. Though overall it is a great mid range affordable cross for the enthusiasts of Crossovers.
