Parking

Will the 2025 Toyota Corolla Cross or 2022 Toyota RAV4 fit in a standard parking space?

2025 Toyota Corolla Cross 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.

OK

For an average USA / Canada space: body side clearance is 46 cm per side, and length clearance is 52 cm at each end.
