What is the Corolla Cross Hybrid MPG?
Toyota.com lists 46 mpg city, 39 mpg highway and 42 mpg combined for every 2026 Corolla Cross Hybrid grade: the S, SE and XSE.

Toyota.com lists the Hybrid at 46 mpg city and 39 mpg highway. Hybrids recover energy when slowing down and can use electric power at low speeds, so stop-and-go driving tends to favor them. The gas Corolla Cross is the other way around, with a higher highway figure than city.

Toyota.com lists 12.4 gallons for the front-wheel-drive L, LE and XLE, 13.2 gallons for their all-wheel-drive versions and 10.6 gallons for the Hybrid grades.
Does trim level change Corolla Cross MPG?
Not on toyota.com's 2026 figures. Mileage changes with the powertrain and drive: the L, LE and XLE share the same estimates for each drive, and the three Hybrid grades share one set of estimates.
