Just be aware that it's hard to get your hands on one of these Corolla Cross Hybrids. You basically have to reserve them as soon as they appear on the dealer's website, or if you have a salesperson call you when they see their bimonthly allocations, that's even better. Only the XSE trim comes with heated seats.

I was going to wait for the 2025 model because it will have a 360 degree camera, a heated steering wheel, and a larger display.
I'm told Toyota will start production on them in November.
