    meh.
    It's still a napkin drawing for now.

    The current Corolla Cross hybrid reminds me of the gen3 v including no sound deadening and relatively cheap interiors. However it has 196 hp, advanced safety features and the expected center screen with Carplay/AA. All for about the same price I paid for the v in late 2011.
