Because my new Toyota Yaris Cross Excel AWDi arrives on Wednesday I am now offering my current Sept 2023 Toyota Yaris Cross Excel AWDi for sale.

These are the features:

September 2023 Toyota Yaris Cross Excel AWD-i is a high-specification, self-charging hybrid compact SUV. Positioned near the top of the range, the Excel trim prioritizes comfort and premium technology, while the AWD-i system adds intelligent all-wheel-drive capability.
The core features and specifications for this specific model year include:

⚙️ Powertrain & Performance
* Engine: 1.5-litre 3-cylinder VVT-i petrol engine paired with a self-charging hybrid system.
*
* Power Output: 114 bhp (116 DIN hp).
*
* Transmission: e-CVT automatic transmission.
*
* AWD-i System: An intelligent electric all-wheel-drive system. Instead of a heavy mechanical driveshaft, it uses an independent electric motor on the rear axle that automatically engages during acceleration or when low-grip conditions are detected.
*
* Fuel Economy: Exceptionally efficient, delivering a WLTP-combined 55.3 to 55.4 mpg. But this car averaged around 62-64mpg.

🛞 Exterior Features
* Wheels: 18-inch dark grey matte & machined-face 5-double-spoke alloy wheels.
*
* Lighting: Full LED headlights, LED daytime running lights, and sequential indicators.
*
* Convenience: Kick-activated power back door (electric tailgate) and auto-folding, heated door mirrors.
*

🛋️ Interior Comfort & Luxury
* Seating: Heated front seats with a premium part-leather/fabric upholstery blend.
*
* Steering: Heated leather steering wheel.
*
* Climate Control: Dual-zone automatic climate control.
*
* Practicality: 40:20:40 split-folding rear seats. (Note: Due to the AWD-i hardware under the boot floor, the cargo capacity drops slightly from 397 litres down to 314 litres compared to the front-wheel-drive model).

🖥️ Technology & Infotainment
* Multimedia Screen: 10.5-inch Toyota Smart Connect high-definition touchscreen display.
*
* Connectivity: Wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, alongside a built-in cloud-based navigation system.
*
* Instruments: A 7-inch digital driver multi-information display combo-meter.
*
* Charging: Built-in wireless mobile phone charger in the center console.
*

🛡️ Safety & Driver Assistance
The Excel trim comes equipped with Toyota Safety Sense and an Advanced Safety Pack as standard.
* Intelligent Parking: Advanced Parking Assist (semi-automated parking) and a 360-degree Panoramic View Monitor camera.
*
* Proactive Braking: Intelligent front and rear parking sensors with automatic clearance braking.
*
* Blind Spot Protection: Blind Spot Monitor (BSM) and Rear Cross Traffic Alert (RCTA).
*
* Cruising Support: Full-range Intelligent Adaptive Cruise Control and Lane Trace Assist.
*
* Collision Avoidance: Pre-Collision System with pedestrian and cyclist detection.

This car has done just under 116, 600 miles. Serviced every 10,000 miles. It still drives likes new. As it’s a self-charging hybrid (petrol and electric) it charges as you drive along so no need to plug in unlike a Tesla.

It cost just over £34,500 brand new. I would normally be asking for £15,000. But for a quick sale because my new car is arriving in a few days I’m asking for £12,000 only.
