Toyota Yaris Cross 2026: Prices and Trims

If you are searching for Toyota Yaris Cross 2026 prices, you want to know what the best-selling compact hybrid SUV really costs and which trim makes sense. After the facelift, on sale in Italy since 24 April 2026 [3], the range is simpler: one engine, four trims and two drivetrains. Here are the numbers and how to think about the choice.

What the facelift changes

The front end gets a redesigned honeycomb grille with a split structure, reshaped LED headlights with integrated daytime running lights and three new colours; Precious Bronze is offered only with a black roof [3]. Inside there are platinum-coloured finishes on the doors and dashboard and an upholstery called SakuraTouch, a plant-based material that the brand says cuts CO2 emissions by 95% compared with genuine leather [3].

The biggest change is mechanical: the 116 hp version is gone and only the 1.5 full hybrid with 130 hp remains [1][2]. For anyone eyeing the cheaper engine, the entry ticket therefore goes up.

List prices by trim

These are the prices reported for Italy [1]:

• Yaris Cross (base): 29,600 euro
• Icon: 32,500 euro
• Premium: 35,450 euro
• GR Sport: 36,750 euro
• Icon AWD-i: 35,000 euro
• Premium AWD-i: about 38,000 euro (the source gives 37,995 euro in its table but 37,950 in one passage: confirm at a dealer)

The AWD-i all-wheel drive uses a second electric motor on the rear axle and is offered only on Icon and Premium; the GR Sport is front-wheel drive only [1][3].

The trade-in discount

The under-25,000-euro starting price you see everywhere is conditional: with a trade-in or scrappage of a used car, whatever its emissions class or fuel, the discount reaches up to 4,650 euro [1][2]. That brings the base car to 24,950 euro, while the rest of the range starts at 28,700, 30,800 and 32,100 euro [1]. If you have nothing to trade in, the real price is the list price. Always check how long the offer lasts: promotions change month to month.

If you prefer a monthly payment, Toyota quotes Easy Next financing from 159 euro a month for 48 months, while KINTO long-term leasing, for businesses and professionals only, starts at 249 euro plus VAT a month for 36 months [3]. Read the deposit, the final balloon payment and the APR carefully before signing.

What each trim includes

Base Yaris Cross: 16-inch alloy wheels, LED lights, fabric seats, automatic climate control, a 9-inch central screen with wireless Android Auto and CarPlay, and Toyota Safety Sense driver aids [1].

Icon: 17-inch wheels, a 10.5-inch screen, keyless entry and wireless phone charging; another source adds parking sensors with collision braking and sport seats [1][3].

Premium: 18-inch wheels, panoramic roof, power tailgate, dual-zone climate control, a Nanoe X air purifier, a 12.3-inch digital instrument cluster and automatic braking when reversing [1]. The kick-sensor power tailgate and blind spot monitoring are standard on Premium and GR Sport [3].

GR Sport: a dedicated grille, aluminium pedals and a sportier interior [1].

Which one makes sense

For most urban drivers the Icon is the sweet spot: it costs 2,900 euro more than the base car for bigger wheels, a larger screen, keyless entry and wireless charging. The base car has everything essential, but with the 9-inch screen and no keyless entry. The Premium makes sense if you want the roof, power tailgate and digital dials, but at nearly 35,500 euro the comparison with other compact SUVs gets tight.

The AWD-i adds 2,500 euro on the Icon (35,000 versus 32,500). It only really pays off if you live where snow or unpaved roads are frequent; for city use front-wheel drive is enough and uses less fuel.

The rivals to cross-shop

Direct rivals named by the press include the Fiat 600, Ford Puma, Jeep Avenger, Mitsubishi ASX, Opel Mokka, Renault Captur and Suzuki Vitara; without a hybrid system there are also the Seat Arona, Skoda Kamiq and Volkswagen T-Cross [1]. The Yaris Cross's strength is the full hybrid as standard: it often runs on electric power in town and never needs plugging in.

What about buying one used?

With these list prices, many shoppers look at used or zero-km cars to save money. Earlier cars with the 116 hp 1.5 remain a valid alternative: check the service history, the hybrid battery condition and the remaining warranty. On VendiVoce you can compare listings of used hybrid SUVs to get a feel for real prices before you decide.

The practical takeaway

1. Start from your real budget: the under-25,000-euro price applies only with a trade-in.
2. For city use the Icon at 32,500 euro (28,700 with a trade-in) is the best compromise.
3. Choose AWD-i only if you truly need all-wheel drive.
4. Compare APR and financing terms, not just the monthly payment.
5. Ask for a written quote: prices reported in the press can differ slightly from the official list.
