The Toyota Corolla Cross Is Still A Corolla At Heart

In this episode, Ariff discusses the spectacle that was the 2022 24h Le Mans Virtual Race, before the trio discusses station wagons versus SUVs, and the first hoo-haa of the New Year as PLUS Highways had decided to close Touch 'n' Go and Smart Tag lanes in the most inconvenient fashion.

After that, they go through the car launches, starting with the prices of the 2022 Honda Civic, BMW's NextGen showcase, (featuring the BMW iX, iX3 and i4), and the Porsche Taycan GTS. Finally, it's the most anticipated car review in a while - the Toyota Corolla Cross. What's in the name, and is it really that good of a crossover?
