On June 23, Sonic Design will release three grades and 12 models exclusively for the Toyota Corolla Cross (10-series) as new products in its “”Sonic Plus”” series, a model-specific speaker package that improves the sound quality of the factory-installed car audio system.

The new product is a speaker package exclusively designed for the new Corolla Cross, incorporating Sonic Design’s original technology. The use of a unique enclosure-integrated speaker module has significantly eliminated sound leakage outside the car and sound quality degradation caused by resonance of interior materials. In addition, the speakers can be installed without any modification to replace the factory speakers, reducing installation time and cost. The product lineup is compatible with Corolla Cross factory speakers and 2-, 4-, and 6-speaker vehicles. Three grades and 12 models designed to provide the best sound quality are available.

Easy installation and no loss of vehicle value due to model-specific exclusive design
The new products are designed exclusively for the Corolla Cross, with installation and sound quality confirmed through careful vehicle testing. For vehicles equipped with the factory 4 or 6 speakers, the front and rear door speakers are replaced with this product, and for vehicles equipped with the factory 2 speakers (without rear speakers), the front speakers are replaced with this product. Since the speakers can be installed without modification in the same way as the factory-installed speakers in the Toyota Corolla Cross, the value and maintainability of the vehicle will not be compromised, and the system can be easily restored to its current state when the vehicle is replaced in the future.

Top grade model adopts all pure aramid diaphragm
The top-grade models SFR-CX101F, SFR-CX102F, SF-CX101F, and SF-CX102F are equipped with the SD-N77Fi 77mm speaker unit with an all-pure aramid diaphragm, a further evolution of the conventional pure aramid diaphragm. The highest quality pure aramid material is lavishly used not only in the cone but also in the center cap, and optimal sound quality tuning has greatly improved the distortion rate and frequency response over a wide bandwidth. The result is a new dimension of clear, supple, high quality sound.

The magnetic circuit is a compact external magnetic type that combines high-density neodymium magnets and a narrow-gap motor system to make more effective use of the enclosure’s internal volume.

High-grade model reproduces realistic and tight mid-bass sound
The high-grade models SFR-CX101M, SFR-CX102M, SF-CX101M, and SF-CX102M are equipped with a CMF (cross microfiber) cone, a microfiber braided resin diaphragm that pursues the best balance between flexibility and rigidity, and a high density The SD-N77M 77mm speaker unit features an external magnetic circuit with neodymium magnets and a narrow-gap motor system. The SD-N77M reproduces precise expression and volume of information that reflects the true face of music, as well as realistic and tight mid-bass sound.

Standard specifications that reproduce the natural and comfortable sound unique to Sonic Design
The standard models SFR-CX101E, SFR-CX102E, SF-CX101E, and SF-CX102E feature the original resin cone containing carbon fiber that has been surface treated with a non-coating, non-coloring fine-treatment DMF ( The “”SF-CX102E”” is equipped with a 77mm speaker unit (model SD-N77E) that uses a DMF (Defined Microfiber) cone and a glass fiber braided center cap. The advanced basic design of the advanced series is retained, including an external magnetic circuit with a high-density neodymium magnet and narrow-gap motor system, and an aluminum monoblock frame that supports the diaphragm’s precise movement, to reproduce the natural and comfortable sound of the Sonic Design standard without compromise.

18mm dome tweeter with pure aramid diaphragm
The tweeter section of the SFR-CX102F and SF-CX102F is equipped with an 18mm dome tweeter (SD-T18F model), which is specially designed for top-grade models in a compact size. The combination of Sonic Design’s traditional pure aramid diaphragm and narrow gap motor system makes it possible to replace the factory tweeter.

The high quality pure aramid material and powerful magnetic circuit with high-density neodymium magnets, both of which have been used in the Premium line, produce highs that are rich in information and full of extension, and the SD-N77Fi unit is also designed to be consistent in tone quality.

High-grade/standard models feature an 18mm microfiber dome tweeter with high sound quality and compact design
The tweeter section of the high-grade models SFR-CX102M and SF-CX102M and the standard models SFR-CX102E and SF-CX102E are equipped with a high sound quality and compactly designed 18mm dome tweeter (SD-N77Fi), which is designed to be consistent in tone quality with each woofer unit by using our original microfiber diaphragms. The tweeter section of the SF-CX102E and SF-CX102E is equipped with an SD-T18 type 18mm dome tweeter with a high sound quality and compact design that unifies the tone of each woofer unit through its unique microfiber diaphragm. Combined with a narrow-gap motor system that aims to further improve the efficiency of the magnetic circuit by enhancing the manufacturing precision of the vibration system, the tweeter delivers rich sound pressure and information, and a smooth frequency response extending all the way to the high-frequency end.

In-door enclosure system, the ideal for car audio reproduction, is adopted in all models
All models feature in-door enclosure systems, which are considered ideal for car audio reproduction. The two-piece construction, in which different materials (aluminum die-cast front baffle and special resin back chamber) are tightly coupled to disperse resonance, reproduces clear sound with minimal unwanted resonance and significantly eliminates sound leakage outside the car.

“Toyota Corolla Cross lowered, coilover kit from Blitz available May 20, 2022, 1:30 p.m.

On May 19, BLITZ, a tuning parts manufacturer, started selling “”DAMPER ZZ-R”” and “”DAMPER ZZ-R SpecDSC Plus”” coilover kits for Toyota “”Corolla Cross Hybrid”” (ZVG15).

DAMPER ZZ-R is a reasonably priced suspension kit with mono-tube (mono-tube) construction, full-length adjustability, 32-level damping force adjustment mechanism, and aluminum parts. With a wide range of damping force adjustment, it is suitable for all kinds of driving situations from street to circuit. The kit also features aluminum upper mounts, lock seats, and brackets (some parts) to achieve both high strength and light weight. The φ44 large-diameter piston, which is unique to the mono-tube design, is used to suppress the delay in damping force. This provides supple driving comfort and reliable tracking performance (except for some models). Furthermore, the cartridge can be overhauled first. This enables smooth replacement of consumable parts, which is different from the conventional system.

Ride height adjustment range is -65 to 0mm in the front and -65 to -20mm in the rear, priced at 206,800 yen.

DAMPER ZZ-R SpecDSC PLUS is the flagship model of the DAMPER ZZ-R combined with electronic damping force adjustment. It allows easy ride-height adjustment from inside the car. The electronically controlled damping force adjustment is equipped with the industry’s first “”fully automatic”” mode, which fully automatically controls the appropriate damping force according to the number of passengers and driving conditions. A 2.5-inch VA LCD display with proven contrast performance is used to display damping force for all four wheels at all times. A total of 22 different modes are available, allowing the user to switch between simple and easy standard and complex and detailed control advanced.

The price is 283,800 yen.”
