Toyota has released a teaser of its upcoming SUV - Frontlander. This new SUV seems to be a version of the Corolla Cross SUV that's already on sale overseas and here in Nepal. The new Toyota Frontlander SUV will most likely go on sale in China first, followed by other markets.
It will be a global product from the brand and will sit below the RAV4 in the company’s international line-up. Toyota will produce the Frontlander in collaboration with the Chinese automaker GAC. The Frontlander will essentially be a reworked iteration of the Corolla Cross.
The Chinese arm of the Japanese carmaker will tweak the styling to make it look slightly different from the model it is based on. Expect the changes to include a new radiator grille, revised bumpers, redesigned headlamps and tail lamps, and new alloy wheels. With these changes on board, the Frontlander will possess some differentiation from the US- and Thailand-spec Corolla Cross. The Frontlander is assumed to get a 1.8L petrol motor under the hood with electric assistance from a hybrid setup for improved performance and fuel consumption figures. The AWD layout is likely to remain standard on most variants.
