JBL gone for 2023 Corolla Cross XLE models?

When I test drove a 2022 Corolla Cross XLE in Toronto, Canada It still had the JBL 9 speaker system. It seems that this is no longer the case for 2023. I really liked the JBL system and it would be disappointing to see this disappear. Can anyone from Canada confirm this? I don’t mind if Toyota just charged more for the XLE and keep the JBL in the 2023. I don’t think most people buying the XLE would be budget conscious anyway. I don’t understand why Toyota would do such thing. I’m still waiting for delivery for my 2023 Corolla Cross XLE AWD in Canada.

I know you asked for Canada but my 2023 LE has the JBL and moonroof package and I’m in the US.
My 2023 XLE AWD (just bought a couple of months ago) has the JBL system.
Great system! Love that it's got HD Radio.

I’m not sure why they dropped the JBL for Canada and not make it optional.
From Toyota.ca they no longer mention the gas XLE has JBL Audio. But it become standard on Hybrid XSE AWD.

It seems like the case. It’s too bad they don’t have a loaded gas model. I would have happily paid more if needed. I wanted the Macadamia interior and a gas model. I had a 2018 highlander hybrid xle and I didn’t like it much. I’m not a fan of the hybrid xse’s dark interior and weird looking front grill.
