Does the Corolla Cross have a sunroof?

Yes, but it isn't universal. A sunroof (often described as a power moonroof or panoramic sunroof) is generally available on higher trims or as part of an optional package, and the exact offering varies by market and model year.


In practical terms, buyers should verify the roof option with their local dealer for the exact configuration on the trim and year they’re considering, as availability can change with updates and market-specific packages.


Roof options by trim and region


In most markets, roof options are tied to trim levels and optional packages. The following outlines typical setups you might encounter.



  • Base trims (often labeled L or equivalent): unlikely to include a sunroof; if offered, it is usually as part of a pricey option package.

  • Mid-range trims (LE or equivalent): may offer a sunroof as part of optional packages depending on market.

  • Higher trims (XLE/SE or equivalent): commonly feature a power tilt/slide moonroof, and some markets offer a panoramic sunroof as part of a premium package.


Note: Even within a given market, details can differ by model year and trim naming. Always confirm with the dealer or official spec sheet for the exact configuration in your area.


Regional snapshots


United States


In the U.S. lineup, a sunroof is not a base feature and is typically found on mid-to-high trims or as part of an optional package. The exact sunroof type—standard tilt/slide moonroof or a larger panoramic option—depends on the year and trim combination. Check the window sticker or Toyota’s official build sheet for the specific vehicle.


Other markets


In Europe, Asia, and other regions, Toyota often builds different options into the Corolla Cross trim ladder. A panoramic sunroof or large moonroof can appear on higher trims or as part of regional packages, while lower-spec variants may not offer any sunroof at all.


What to check when shopping


To avoid missing out or paying for features you won’t use, use these checks:



  • Review the official spec sheet for the model year and market to see whether a sunroof is listed as standard or optional.

  • Inspect the vehicle’s window sticker (Monroney) for the roof option; confirm the exact type (tilt/slide vs panoramic).

  • Ask the dealer to show the roof mechanism and confirm the included equipment in the package you’re considering.


Having a clear understanding of local trim configurations will help you determine if a sunroof is included or available as an add-on for the Corolla Cross in your area.


Summary


The Corolla Cross can have a sunroof, but it is not universal. Availability depends on the market, model year, and trim level, with higher trims and certain packages more likely to include a sunroof (tilt/slide or panoramic). Always verify with the dealer using the exact build sheet to ensure you get the roof option you want.
