What a Toyota Corolla Cross is worth in South Africa after 25,000km, 50,000km, and 100,000km

The Toyota Corolla Cross retains its value rather well, as evidenced by new sales data from AutoTrader.

TopAuto recently got in touch with the sales platform to find out how much the country’s best-selling SUV goes for on the pre-owned market, revealing that you need to spend R398,138 on average to pick one up.

What a 2nd-hand Toyota Corolla Cross goes for

We asked AutoTrader if it could provide the latest sales data for the current-generation Corolla Cross, referring to all units sold from November 2021 onwards.

More specifically, we looked at the average price that the Toyota is retailing for at different mileages, namely 10,000km, 25,000km, 50,000km, 100,000km, and more than 100,000km.

The figures provided by AutoTrader for each of the requested intervals can be seen in the table below:

Note that the numbers shown are for the car’s retail price, and not the wholesale value that an owner will receive when trading in their model.

It’s important to point out that the above figures are a general average of the Corolla’s price across all trim levels, including everything from the base Xi to the range-topping GR-Sport hybrid.

Starting with the newest units in the sample, the crossover asks for around R426,997 with a low mileage under 10,000km.

To put this in context, the 2025 year models currently retail for between R414,800 and R561,700.

The mean of these two figures is R488,250, which means the Cross loses approximately R61,253 within the first few months of driving it off the showroom floor.

While that figure may sound alarming, bear in mind that cars usually see the steepest drop off in value during this period, so a loss of roughly 12% is actually quite good by industry standards.

Case in point is the fact that the loss in value is proportionally lower with each new mileage interval, as it loses another R28,841 by the time it reaches 25,000km, and only R19,484 when odometre doubles to 50,000km.

Of course, not all of the Corolla Cross models on AutoTrader are relatively new, meaning that 2025 prices are not reflective of what everyone paid for their car when they first bought it.

Back in late 2021, the Toyota sold for between R349,900 and R448,300, which is a more accurate representation for the units that have in excess of 100,000km on the clock by now.

In this case, the average price of the crossover at the time would be R399,100, which means it is losing R96,347 by the time owners go over that critical mileage.

The good news, though, is that since 2021 is only a little over three years ago, it’s unlikely that a lot of motorists would have managed to do over 100,000km by now, since it would require you to drive almost 3,000km per month.
