"Horse Power Matters!"..Words that make my heart sing with joy.

@karenpike2420 Год назад

Add to your do not like list: no spare tire

@Bostonharborwater 2 месяца назад

Deal breaker.

@MrCanada411 7 месяцев назад

There is a heated steering wheel on the Canadian version.. Even in the SE trim. That is the blank button beside the heated seats on your version.

@alirezasoh Год назад

Very well pointed out the good and and points. If I may add another BAD point not specific to Corolla Cross but also to most of 2023 Toyota vehicles is that they deleted the key fob remote engine start and added app based remote start. On the surface it sounds convenient and modern. But the fact is the customer will have to start to pay for the service once the free trial period ends and that is not acceptable for an economy car and brand as Toyota. Honda, Kia, Hyundai and others all offer key fob engine start which is free to use for the life of the vehicle.

@zakspeedf1 7 месяцев назад

Ours came with free 3 year subsciption on our 3 year lease that is more than acceptable.

I'm glad it's a hybrid and not fully electric. No range anexity.

@markmd9 Год назад

Self charging EV 😂

@andersriksson100 11 месяцев назад

Never had a full electric but it has come to my understanding you don't have that axiety for long. You soon adapt to the realities of charging. Having said that, this car is for me cos I can't charge at home or easily at work... (when I come to work, all chargers are occupied by early birds...)

@walltiger6603 Год назад

i have the corolla cross with 2.0 engine. i use extreme driving style to get 5.0L/100km, which is 47 MPG. i never go over 100km/h, seldom let the engine go over 2500rpm when accelerating and hyper mill when ever possible. so l smile when i see the gas pump, and its a different kind of fun to squeeze for MPG.

@aaronlouviere5797 Год назад

Picked up a used 2022 Corolla Cross LE AWD for 25k. Think I made the correct decision. Kinda wanted the hybrid but seeing this video makes me think it wouldn’t have been worth the extra 5-10k for me personally. Thanks for the video 👍

@hjer731 10 месяцев назад

Where'd you buy it?

@DoReMeaCulpa Год назад

I would have liked to see and hear more about the cargo capacity. Also, another negative is, as I understand it, the absence of a spare tire in the hybrid version of the corolla cross. I find that to be the biggest deal breaker, way more so than charging ports and cup holders. Otherwise, this car has a lot going for it

@mrrod3004 10 месяцев назад

to screw the customer and make more money, is that not common sense to you? take youre spare out youre vehicles before you trade it in or sell it.

@ttill438 Год назад

Thanks for the review. I appreciate the detail.

@yourmanzach2307 3 месяца назад

so said price range 30-33k.... it starts at 28k and currently you can get discounts on this through the dealerships. can probably snag it at 27k

@davidgoode7416 Год назад

Great review, thanks

@Lawrence64 Год назад

Great points.The side USB port is meant for the passenger. It won't get their stuff in the driver's way.

@whatwhome6914 Год назад

Good review. The only drawback to the vehicle for me is the lack of adequate sound insulation. I would probably put a rubber mat jn that phone spot and never use the wireless charging.

@paulkwan2006 Год назад

hows the road noise? quieter than the RAV4 hybrid? thanks

@watersrising8044 11 месяцев назад

You need to discuss safety options like blind spot monitoring and spare tire or lack thereof, rather than whether the steering wheel heats up for gosh sake.

@hmroque4382 Год назад

How can I make sure to get one when it’s finally out? When will it be out in the market?

@1conradvw Год назад

I saw on two other reviews that the 2023 hybrid Corolla Cross does have a heated steering wheel. That is one item that is a must in Minnesota.

@seagullsbtn Год назад

This and the HRV cross the point between a nice vehicle and one that's so cheaply built that you don't want to drive it or own it for years. We added a Mazda CX30 after driving those all three.

@thomassteele7451 Год назад

This is the vehicle a lot of us have been waiting for. I’d even consider buying the XLE gas model after I rented one. The wireless charger didn’t like my Otter phone case, but I can plug instead. Not heated steering isn’t a big deal. As for a spare, I think I’d take the kit out & put a spare there. I’d have to. Can’t go on a trip w/o a spare! Surprised the Cross wouldn’t be quiet, like the hybrid Camry. Would’ve love a dark burgundy for this vehicle.

@krecikowi 10 месяцев назад

I'm driving for about 25 years. Not one flat tire.

@Cathy-xi8cb Месяц назад

I have the 2024 XSE and my Otterbox case is not a problem. I think they improved wireless charging on the 2024 model.

@davidzavala337 Год назад

I think is pricy. I mean, the new 2024 Mazda CX90 sits a hard below below $40k, but for an inline V6, turbo charge and mild hybrid rear wheel drive at 8 passengers for like $7k more than this.

@itsAlphaFox Год назад

The crazy thing about the heated steering wheel - it's available in Canada, but not in the USA.

@MrEnky007 Год назад

Cuz Canada is too cold eh! But Canada doesn't get the ''S'' trim and the ''SE'' doesn't get the roof rails ):

@joehrke 7 месяцев назад

Nice review. I just picked up a 2024 XSE and love it. FYI Toyota must have responded to the issues with wireless charging. it works great on my 2024 with an iPhone 13 ProMax in a case. Never pauses charging and doesn't move around. I can see that the charging pad is different from the one in your review. It has a rail on each side of the phone and has a downward slope that keeps the phone firmly in place.

@Cathy-xi8cb Месяц назад

Yes; they improved it. Works great in my XSE.

@jrsupstateny Год назад

@ALMX5DP Год назад

Looks like a pretty decent hybrid CUV offering. What is the price range that it’ll span?

@jillciminillo Год назад

About $29k to $33k.

@rattanack1413 Год назад

Does rhe car come with a 360 backup camera like the rav4 hybrid?

@iamsamiam004 Год назад

No 360 camera on any CC trim. RAV 4 only has it on top model in Canada, prob US as well ( or on a pkg?) so way more money.

@Faisal-sf1gh Год назад

You don’t have to find the nit picky wrong in everything. Thank you

@kulwant747 Год назад

Good

@johnbrews9724 Год назад

Don’t like no spare tire. Looks like Toyota put some wiring in the space for a tire- seems like a dumb decision!

@Snafu2346 Год назад

I hope people go for these instead of the Rav 4 Hybrid.

@kenhoward3512 Год назад

I've never used a heated steering wheel, but was counting on my next vehicle having one, so this is a miss (an almost-unbelievable one on the top-level XSE Hybrid). The console cup holders are also almost-unbelievably poorly designed. As far as interior noise, yes, both Toyota and Honda often use too little, likely to cut weight and production cost. After lots of poor reviews, Honda will then boast of adding "extra sound deadening" on refreshed vehicles after the first 2 years of a model run - and it will always *still* not be enough.

@arhamkhakwani5851 Год назад

Wait that’s weird. Other reviewers with the XSE had the heated steering wheel. It’s just be some premium package add on to get it.

@jillciminillo Год назад

@@arhamkhakwani5851🤔 I didn’t even see it on their option list. Was this US reviewers? Sometimes we get different options here.

@arhamkhakwani5851 Год назад

@@jillciminillo yes US reviewers. I believe you can check out Alex on Autos, Kirk Kriefels, and some other channels. Pretty sure it was there.

@iamsamiam004 Год назад

Canada CC models get a heated steering wheel. Not available on any US models.

@erickisel8668 Год назад

Canada ONLY

@farcinue 11 месяцев назад

I’d love to see a more premium Lexus version. Add some lux features, sound deadening, panoramic sunroof.

@Cathy-xi8cb Месяц назад

That would be the UX. The teeny tiny UX.

@Ryan-um8ug Год назад

I'd rather get the Sportage Hybrid for the same price! And more options!

@LewisMarroquin 5 месяцев назад

They should have dropped the wireless charge and opted for the heated steering. A warm seat yet cold steering wheel is not pleasant at all.

@DaveInCanada081 Год назад

Long wait times to get one. 6 months wait when I looked into buying one about 1 year ago. Maybe that has changed?

@jillciminillo Год назад

This is the hybrid, it’s not out until June.

@williamdavidthomas3202 Год назад

Heated steering wheel available in Canada but not USA

@becoolmanilaners5256 6 месяцев назад

It’s a best choice than the rav 4 overpriced with lots of safety recalls

@jxmar_ Год назад

5:50 I think that’s apples fault for adding MagSafe

@reknown123 Год назад

androids also get really warm. it's the fact that using wireless carplay and wireless charging at the same time requires some power draw.

@DaveInCanada081 Год назад

Why would turning up the temperature use more fuel? Running a heated steering wheel causes the alternator to work harder and the alternator gets its power from the engine.

@jillciminillo Год назад

HVAC makes the engine work harder. Most EVs include heated seats & steering wheel because they require less fuel.

@koukimonzta Год назад

I think Canada has heated steering

@jxmar_ Год назад

Yup😖😖

@robme3660 Год назад

I'm in Florida. I want cooled seats. There was only one day in the last 5 years that dropped below freezing for a couple of hours.

Key bad point about this Toyota is that you can't buy it.

@bobdadruma 10 месяцев назад

"It would be a great Chicago vehicle" It would be good for drive by shootings :)

@robertsparks7244 10 месяцев назад

Under 30 between 30 and 33 very vague and overpriced

@aaronbaird9444 Год назад

There are much better vehicles at that price point. They may not be a hybrid, but you can get a CX 5 in a very well appointed, trim level with a much more refined cabin, for the same price. That doesn’t include the multiple thousand dollar mark up above sticker the dealerships will be charging. That is the biggest problem. Toyota has this vehicle $5000 over what it should be for MSRP.

@ALMX5DP Год назад

Shooing around and you’ll likely be able to find MSRP for this. And both have their pros and cons, though this hybrid should likely save you $500-750 a year in fuel costs.

@jillciminillo Год назад

I love the CX-5, but it doesn’t have a hybrid and only the base, base model will hit at this point.

@erickisel8668 Год назад

You can get a CX-5 Premium Plus for $36k and get ventilated front seats heated rear seats, power liftgate, and heads up display

@reknown123 Год назад

buy a 2017 lexus for the same price

@WilliamMoss6067 Год назад

Toyota getting cheap they should see who fast China car industry progress. See the shenlan car which cost roughly 25k and drive as good as Lexus

@DaveInCanada081 Год назад

I really like the Corolla Cross, but, really, it's just an underpowered Rav4.

@jillciminillo Год назад

Hybrid is much better

@jxmar_ Год назад

The hybrid corolla cross is just as fast if not faster then the RAV4 hybrid

@Flying-Fox19 Год назад

RAV4 is heavier and doesn't handle as well as this.

@Flying-Fox19 Год назад

Why so the need for so much power? Planning to load all passengers and fill up the trunk with hockey gear, inventory for your business every single day of your life? Do you tow a trailer for camping? Planning to race Dominic Torreto and his family? 196 hp is plenty, enjoy.
