I test drove a new Honda Civic before I decided on the Cross and was totally unimpressed. The ride/suspension was horrible and very uncomfortable for one thing. Just wasn’t the car for me. So back to the Toyota dealership for me! With the Cross, I’m also impressed with the mileage I have been getting. The other day, I got 39 mpg out of it. Who needs a hybrid? 😄 Besides, I wanted a spare tire and hybrids don’t have a spare.

My bigger issue is the crappy CVTs they moved to in the last 10 years. Those have caused issues. Also some problems with fuel/oil intermingling in CRVs, mostly in colder climate areas. Niece took a used CRV over 210,000 miles in college. Loved it and bought her first ever new car, 2020 CRV. It has had a few major issues and while the dealer has addressed them, mostly, she is not a "raving Honda lover" anymore. Since she is still paying for her car she cant afford to trade it in and get a new one but I would guess when she does it will be a Toyota.

I own a 2020 Toyota Corolla Hybrid. The 50 mpg you mentioned is way lower than the mileage I have ever gotten. I bought the car new in the Spring of 2019 and it now has 52K miles. I live in the Pacific Northwest and get 55 mpg in the winter and 65 mpg in the summer, averaging 60 mpg. So far it has been completely trouble free. That said, I am very satisfied and will NEVER buy an EV. The only problem is that the state of Washington doubles the cost to license hybrids every year because they use less gasoline (hence less gas tax revenue) and those greedy politicians want to get some of it back. I hope that’s not a problem in most states.

@briandelaney5283 10 месяцев назад

Toyota is really the most practical and appealing car company. The Corolla Cross reminds me of a higher version of my 2010 Matrix. The matrix is very plastic and a very rough ride. I’m certain this is much better. Costcos only slightly higher for base than my Matrix was back in 2010.

@regsparkes6507 10 месяцев назад

I've ordered a 2024 Corolla Cross AWD, Hybrid, but I may re-think this, and change back to a non- Hybrid model. Too many reasons why I'm making this decision to list here. I test drove the 'competition' BUT the 'Cross impressed me a lot more. I do think that Toyota could and should have a more competitive warranty plan though.

@bartlebyscrivener2980 10 месяцев назад

I originally thought I'd buy a hybrid, but I'm retired now and have another car as well, and realized I might not put even 4k miles a year on the new one. Which is not a concern most people have, I know. But if you don't put that much mileage or more on a hybrid the batteries don't get charged like they need to and they won't last as long. What I don't want is a hybrid with its batteries wearing out earlier in the vehicle's life than they already do.

@regsparkes6507 10 месяцев назад

@@bartlebyscrivener2980 The batteries indeed, are what made me change my mind,... ( i think ) I have yet to have a chat with my Dealer, but that will be as a courtesy only,. I usually know ( or try to at least ) enough about what I'm buying before I do so. I'm in the same position as you are, although, I put more kilometres on a vehicle in a year, perhaps than normal, about 26,000, and that amount will be lessened to about 18000 or so in the coming years. Ahh, time will tell, I'll make up my mind soon. Again, thanks for your reply/input.

The Toyota Cross Hybrid looks like a decent value proposition. Compared to the Subaru Outback Premium its off-road capability looks like it is lacking but it does get better fuel economy. The XMODE on the Subaru offers better AWD traction and it has slightly better ground clearance. For under $30k the Subaru Premium (sold below MSRP) may be a better overall value. It is larger and other than silicone gaskets should last over 200k miles.

@kevinf.barnaby7448 10 месяцев назад

Have a 2023 Cross SE Hybrid getting 43 MPG and just put winter tires on it and it dropped to 41 MPG. So far love the hybrid transition between running on just EV motors and the gas engine, it is seamless. Literally have to look at the tach to see if the gas motor is running, even at 60 mph. For the price, it's an awesome commuter car or for something to get to point A to B. Having a family or more than two people really wouldn't be anything I would want to do a long trip in, but for two it is a nice ride. But small trips can certainly support additional passengers with great gas milage. Overall I thinks its a great value at the price and hope it has the standard Toyota reliability that I am accustomed too so I can have for many many years of service!

A hybrid is extremely complicated, mechanically. When that thing has some serious mileage on it, it will be so expensive to have it fixed that you will curse yourself for not buying a good used gasoline-burning car instead.

@kevinf.barnaby7448 10 месяцев назад

I appreciate your thoughts, but I have based my decision on the fact that the Cross Hybrid is based on the Toyota Corolla gas power and the EV technology of the Toyota Prius, which if you look at the longevity and reliability of both of these models I think I made a good choice. Again, only time will tell. @@nitromartini1422

@electrictroy2010 10 месяцев назад

@electrictroy2010 10 месяцев назад

@nitromartini1422 THE Toyota hybrid isn’t that complicated. It’s a standard automatic transmission with clutches removed & two electric motors added. Pretty simple really. The only potential expense is replacing the battery, but that is under warranty until 150,000 miles on PZEV models, so won’t cost you anything. (And even if it does, cost is only $2000 total.)

@mnn1265 10 месяцев назад

I bought a 2023 Cross back in 2022 with almost a 14-month wait for exactly what I needed/ wanted. FWD LE Ok so far/haven't put many miles on her yet/ looks good in the underpinnings though. Well assembled down there in good old Alabama. canadian vehicles get heated seats and steering wheel/ no charger station. So far ... so good!

Many years ago auto makers made what they called stripper cars.. They didn't have ANYTHING in them except the bare minimum.. not even a radio.... That is what somebody really needs to make... nothing but a heater... Price it LOW...it would be a seller.

@delennwheeler1953 10 месяцев назад

I test drove one of these and I didn't like it. Very under powered. Sits low to the ground and the blind spots are terrible. I had to floor it to get on the interstate during my test drive. I was replacing a 2004 Rav4 and it for sure didn't have anymore power than that Rav. I ended up with a Subaru Forester and I couldn't be happier. If you are just driving around town the Corolla Cross would be ok. If you do a lot of highway driving, look elsewhere.

@stevewheeler6920 9 месяцев назад

I like the Toyota Cross and I'm guessing it's the closest to my 2010 Toyota Scion XB that I love. Though a little more expensive but does have more features, but is it zippy like my Scion with the easiest throttle I've ever experienced? Great videos Mr Kramer thank you.

@HarrySapsun 15 дней назад

I tested it. the steering has lots of play which makes it feels dangerous and it is way too narrow, my elbow was hitting my wifes. When i stopped at a light the car started to stall and the batter light went on and said it was charging. Didn't have any confidence in it at all.

I prefer the CHR over the Cross any day. The reason why we went with a Subaru Crosstrek instead is because it’s still in production. But I was very vocal about wanting a 2024 C-HR. Any word on the models of the Cross being produced in New Zealand?

@Buc_Stops_Here 8 месяцев назад

We will look at the Toyota Corolla Cross hybrid this year but living on a mountain where we get snow every winter with occasional plowing, we have to be sure the hybrid AWD with snow tires can work. We had FWD cars when we moved here (Honda/Saab) and neither with snow tires could get up the mountain when it snowed. Now have a 2013 Subaru and a 2018 Buick both with AWD with no trouble with snow/all-weather tires. A hybrid is a new thing for us to look at for a potential 3rd car. We may buy it and if it does not work well in the snow climbing the mountain, just not use that third newer car and use the two older ones instead (there is a 10-15% grade going up 650 feet to our home). If anyone knows if the Cross can handle this let me know

@godidea5853 5 месяцев назад

I am still driving my 2001 Corolla and it works good, looking forward to next car and test drives the cross hybrid version. Looks and felt cheap, but That’s not the main issue, the notoriously face from The dealer and the price they jacked up turn me away. Will go for Subaru forester or crosstrek for sure!

@lkjh00on89 10 месяцев назад

Recently drove a Corolla and wasn’t a fan. It has this “B” gear at the back of the shifter, the last gear after D. I accidentally had it in B and pulled out into traffic, only to have the engine rev and not be able to accelerate past like 30 (scary moment). Beyond that, the car has a weird power band; the merging gear (40->75) is dangerously slow, but moving from like 20->50 is really fast (ticketing gear). The lane-keep assist will violently jerk the wheel if you’re lazy about a turn signal on an empty road or if it’s confused in road construction. Idk, it was a bad first exposure for me driving a Toyota.

@lkjh00on89 10 месяцев назад

The “B” gear is apparently the low gear. Why a little sedan that can’t tow anything needs a low gear is questionable at best. But why you’d put that seldom (if ever) used gear at the very back of the shifter, where 99% of cars have the Drive because it’s the easiest gear location to get to without looking, is downright idiotic. It makes me question the “brilliance” of Toyota.

@JaxDeleon 10 месяцев назад

the B gear isn’t really for towing, it’s more for increasing engine drag while you go downhill so it’s easier to go downhill on places with a lot of terrain (like west coast, japan, mountainous/hilly places). idk where else they’d put the B gear anyways if it isn’t the last. based off what you’re saying, it seems like your bad experience was more user errors, not because of the car…

@dedgar6161 10 месяцев назад

@@JaxDeleon B literally stands for engine "B"reaking.... so yes it'll rev higher but that's bc it's a lower gear to help go downhill... definitely operator error on ur part

In 1960, i recall the sudden popularity of compact cars. My father bought a Ford Falcon which was small, light, and had no frills, not even a radio. At that time, the only pickups were driven by working farmers, and the speed limit on our country roads were 55 for cars and 45 for trucks. This austerity was the genesis of the resulting boom in the auto industry. Today's car are more like the overweight, overpriced and overindulged people who drive their too large vehicles.

@laura-ann.0726 3 месяца назад

We own a 2020 Corolla Hybrid. It's one of the best cars I've ever owned. 53 mpg, and it has a full size spare tire! I had to buy this tire and a rim aftermarket, but at least Toyota provided a storage well for it under the cargo floor. I love the idea of the Corolla Cross Hybrid, but somehow, it's fuel economy is a whopping 25% LESS than that of the regular Corolla Hybrid. And Toyota chose to route several high voltage cables through the spare tire well, and provide only a patch kit, so you can't use the well to put a real spare tire in there, even though it's big enough to carry one. Very disappointed in this, Toyota!

We have one of each 22 CHR and 23 Corolla Cross , each one is good , CHR is fun to drive , I don’t see lack of power only think I can complain about is very small fuel tank in CHR , 250 miles from full to empty , that means you are stopping every 2 1/2 or 3 hours for fuel Corolla Cross has bigger fuel tank , I think they both are great value for the money

How is the corolla cross cheaper ive seen them all ethier more or just 500$ more then the Rav4

@bartlebyscrivener2980 10 месяцев назад

You're seeing marked-up Crosses then. The new Huntsville plant is producing much lower numbers of them than the demand for them so far, just a fraction of the North American RAV4 production. There is even higher demand for RAV4's, but much higher production, too, and the supply shortfall is worse for Crosses. To get a Cross for MSRP you pay a deposit and wait for half a year or more.

@bikeman9899 4 месяца назад

Reality is, OEMs price cars are what the market will bear. If customers are willing to take bigger and longer loans terms to afford the latest and greatest, that's what they will do. Both Ford and Stellantis seem to have abandoned the compact budget car market, GMnstill has the Equinox, Spark . This matters, bc the average salary has not kept pace with inflation and this entry point in the market is big, volume wise. The Japanese, Korean brands have not abandoned the sub compact segment. When the Chinese arrive, you can bet that they will focus there too. Volume is key in auto. As it allows you to spread your development and tooling costs over more units. Very short sighted by Ford and Stellantis.
