Here at Classic Toyota in Waukegan, IL, we know that many drivers are looking for the versatility of crossovers and SUVs these days. Some want smaller models, others want rugged, off-road vehicles. We’re confident that, somewhere in our varied lineup, we have a Toyota crossover or SUV that suits your budget and driving needs. Now the Toyota brand is getting ready to offer a brand new model, and it might just be the Toyota SUV you’ve been waiting for.

This new Toyota model would be built at the automaker’s new plant in Alabama. This plant represents an investment of more than one billion dollars and it will create thousands of jobs in the area. It has the capacity to produce 300,000 vehicles per year, and this upcoming Toyota SUV will be one of the models produced there.

Details about this Toyota SUV are slim for now. Rumor has it that it will be built on the same platform as the 2019 Toyota C-HR. That could mean that this new Toyota vehicle could be of similar size, but with some different capabilities. It could serve as an off-road crossover to complement the front-wheel-drive current Toyota C-HR. This new off-road model could also take some cues from the Toyota FT-4X concept that was unveiled a few years ago. This was a rugged, boxy concept vehicle that could be ideal for off-road adventuring. We can’t wait to see how this new Toyota SUV takes shape.

Whatever you’re looking for in a new SUV or crossover, we’ll help you find it. Talk to our friendly and knowledgeable Toyota dealers today and see how easy it is to find the perfect Toyota model right now. We look forward to meeting you!
