Cargo Capacity: which has more space?
Standard and largest cargo capacity
The 2025 Toyota Corolla Cross is the only model in this pair with confirmed cargo stats, with a 473 L (VDA) capacity that is average for its class. The 2025 Toyota Corolla Cross's 1,404 L (VDA) capacity with the seats down is way above average for its segment.
Measurements
Standard cargo capacity (VDA)
The standard cargo capacity using VDA, the method commonly used globally.
This is the manufacturer's normal published figure; it does not imply a particular seat configuration.

Details
Doors, seats, weight, maneuverability
Both the 2025 Toyota Corolla Cross and 2021 Toyota Land Cruiser feature a 5-door configuration, offering the same level of accessibility for passengers. There is no advantage for either model when it comes to passenger numbers, since both offer a 5-seat configuration. The vehicles have a near identical turning circle, with just a 1.4 m difference. This 1,115 kg weight gap is massive, fundamentally changing everything from braking to suspension wear.

Parking
Will the 2021 Toyota Land Cruiser or 2025 Toyota Corolla Cross fit in a standard parking space?
2021 Toyota Land Cruiser parking fit score
DriveSize compares the car's width and length with typical parking-space sizes by region.
Vehicle dimensions are rounded up and available side or length clearance is rounded down.
Side clearance is based on body width where available; real spaces can vary because of mirrors, walls, pillars, kerbs, bay markings, and nearby cars.
For an average USA / Canada space: body side clearance is 37.5 cm per side, and length clearance is 26 cm at each end.
