Today you will find out if Toyota Yaris Cross 2021 is fit for off road adventures.
In this video, you will know whether the 2021 Yaris Cross is fit for your off-road trips and adventures. We'll be talking about the car's Multi-terrain Select function, the tires, torque, and other exciting details.
The 2021 Toyota Yaris Cross is built with flared wings, maintains a rhomboid-shaped design, and comes with a 30 mm higher ground clearance. All of these features may suggest the car is suitable for off-road driving. It is better than the average hatchback on gravel roads, thanks to the extra ride height.
The car comes with a 4WD drive system, which allows an efficient response to different road surfaces. The Yaris Cross is loaded with the 'Multi-terrain Select' function, enabling you to choose from three driver assist modes. Whichever mode you choose depends on the condition of the road surface.
The available modes create a significant improvement in vehicle performance both on-road, off-road, and slippery terrains. When traveling downhill, the vehicle's assistance control maintains a steady low vehicle speed and ensures stable cruising.
The Yaris Cross already looks like a good car for off-road trips. However, there are several other aspects to consider before making a final choice. You need to look into factors like low-range gearing, drivetrains, wheel travel, diff locks, chassis, underbody protection, and suspension. As a small SUV, the Yaris does a good job in wheel travel, chassis, underbody protection, height, and other essential off-road requirements.
How about the important off-road considerations like torque, ground clearance, tires, rated recovery points, and the approach, departure, and ramp over angles?
TORQUE is an essential factor to consider before buying a car for its off-road capabilities. The Yaris Cross has a torque value of 143Nm at 4800rpm. For a good off-road vehicle, the torque should fall between 2000rpm and 3,000rpm.
Why is LOW-END TORQUE important? Low-end torque keeps the car from overworking its engine. When it moves over rough terrain at a maintained momentum, the engine remains in perfect condition. Note that the low-end torque vehicles don't need the driver pressing hard on the throttle for easy car movement.
The Yaris Cross Hybrid 2WD and the Hybrid AWD are better options for off-road driving. These cars have a torque of 141Nm at 3800rpm. Compared to the Petrol 2WD, this torque is around 1,000rpm lower. Hence, based on the vehicle torque, the Yaris Cross is a relatively good option.
Most recent cars focus a lot more on speed, which gives the driver less control of the wheels. What a low-end torque vehicle achieves is a maximum control for rough terrains.
Apart from the torque, another strong point to consider is the type of tires. Vehicle tires that are suitable off-road are also great for other terrains. Note that your tires' strength also depends on the amount of pressure you apply to them.
The Yaris Cross is made from 4 x 4 Mud Terrain Tires. They are huge and manufactured for getting through mud. However, they are quite noisy on-road and could add to the fuel bills if you do many highway travels.
Some SUVs use AT tires, which are also good all-round. These tires are tough and less susceptible to damages from sharp objects like sticks and stones.
Off-road vehicles should have good ground clearance. Without this feature, the car wouldn't be suitable for off-road travels. Your car may face consistent scraping on the ground and sustain severe damages when the ground clearance is bad.
As a new Toyota design, the Yaris Cross has a 30 mm higher ground clearance, which makes it undoubtedly created for off-road adventures. When your car has lots of ground clearance, there's a lesser tendency for the vehicle's underbelly to hit the ground hard.
With a higher ride height, there's a greater tendency to see over vehicles better. Since you have more visibility, you make better decisions while driving, which helps a safe experience.
Note that the Yaris's higher ride height increases its center of gravity, which ultimately makes it easier for the vehicle to roll over. If you need a car for its speed, you should go for the complete opposite of the Yaris Cross. Go for a vehicle with a low center of gravity.
Based on the ground clearance height, the Yaris Cross is a great option for off-road driving.
Other significant factors to consider when going for an off-road vehicle are the approach, departure, and ramp over the vehicle's angles.
Generally, AWDs are lower than 4WDs in their approach, departure, and ramp over angles. This fact makes them less favorable for off-road adventures.
Note that the approach angle is the vehicle's least angle between the horizontal ground and the straight-line tangent of the front tire and touching the front of the vehicle.

I liked the commentary, was gonna pass at first due to it only being marketing b-roll footage but your info and pacing kept me listening. I didn’t find the off-road alternatives relevant. I imagine this is first and foremost a city car, and its targeted at millennials and zetters that wanna get away from their city lives every so often. Alternatives that target the same people would have been nice to know. The information you provided assured me that it is more than capable to not get stuck in regular unpaved roads and hills.

It’s probably less vulnerable to poor quality road maintenance, such as potholes and the like, compared with some models with tight ground clearance, even if it’s not a ‘real’ off road car.
