I agree; I have a 20 year old Tacoma that I plan to keep for another 10 years

Glad it was helpful! We try to strive to keep it real in every review ❤

A thick one lol

Thick, ha

And as you can see it's better to be early than good.

hopefully the economy turns around by then

If you have a CS degree, you shouldn’t be looking at this car.

It's actually pretty impressive how well they emulate a normal drive train. You gotta remember that even the idle speed is "faked" and it simulates an idle speed. It simulates drag downhill (hence the needle dipping into the charge zone downhill). Tapping the "gas" gently downhill doesn't apply "gas", but rather, reduces the drag and returns the needle to "zero." xd Also consider that because the engine can be off while it's driving, the A/C is electric, the steering is electric, the braking is electric. The gear shift isn't shifting any gears. There's no "parking gear", so it has to engage a parking brake. All kind of mindblowing stuff.

Great input!

Hey, you again! Lol.

@@A_A_J. boasting my amazing MPG, 🤣🤣

Pfft I always go over a 100 and still get good gas mileage lol im just a heavy foot driver lol.

And especially when the rav 4 comes with a spare

I like to watch

@@gerry9306, me too 😂

@@gerry9306 That’s good 😊

But the fuel economy for the HRV is atrocious for the class - I think it’s literally the worst in class.

@@Socooomfy Yeah it could be better, but it could be worse. Like I said, I should have looked at the Corolla cross first

Toyota car fire recall is a problem.........

@@crow_2k11beatsbydre8No thats Hyundai

@@davevolz6138 No its Toyota, google it........

​@@crow_2k11beatsbydre8it's hyundai fingers crossed

@@kevij371 Toyota is issuing a recall over concerns with faulty electricity converters that could increase the risk of a fire, with approximately 43,000 Toyota and Lexus plug-in hybrid SUVs affected by the issue. Affected vehicles include model-year 2021-22 Toyota RAV4 Prime SUVs and model-year 2022 Lexus NX450h+ SUVs.

Agreed. They'll have hybrid options in 2025, but that's just too long of a wait for me and probably many others, and word on the street is that their MPGs on those models might not even be much higher than their standard gas models, which is a little silly. That all combined with Subaru's abysmal infotainment system (both the technology and the ridiculous iPad-size screen they're putting in all their new cars) makes me very likely to jump ship to Toyota.

Just more leakage when it goes bad.

You need to understand that every country has a different taste/preferences

This was filmed before he lost his voice! 😅

Can you fit a spare?

@@SimplyLeona it came with a fix a flat kit so I don't think so...at least a full size one wont

@@texarican_77 I’d pay for it to be included. That’s the only thing stopping me from making this my next vehicle

@@SimplyLeona you have to remember the design...a lot of cars give you more trunk space but sacrifice the space for the spare

What was the difference that made you go Rav4?

⁠@@almostkindaalso have Rav4 limited hybrid. The Rav4 is bigger.

@@JustHavingFun_ I have a Rav 4 hybrid as well! Love it

If by the word 'Prius' you mean 'hybrid', then yes.

the MPG isn't that impressive.

Interior isn't as nice as the Prius

It's a corolla SUV duh.

It's certainly good enough for most AWD needs. If you have lots of bad weather, then maybe, but plenty of people drive FWD in those same locations so you could just add snow tires and be more than fine. Really bad area... get a Subie.

So true, I’ve driven nothing but Toyotas and I’m so sick of them lol They come with issues too and I don’t feel that they are as reliable as they used to be I test drove the Corolla cross and the drive was awful, it’s only selling because of the Toyota badge. Also from what I read, there’s a lot of issues with this car.

We can harshly criticize Toyota because they make it so easy to do that Harshly criticizes Hyundai kia Honda Mazda genesis or bmw and everyone will laugh at you.

50K??!! What moron would pay that for a Corolla Cross? I hate these dumb people paying these prices and ruining it for those of us with some financial sense

Until in Hyundai fashion it self destructs by year 3. It's a shame all the endless problems in the Hyundai/kia's

Hate to say it, but my wife is an auto adjuster and she gets fire claims all the time on Hyundai’s and kias. They are death trap. Do not park your Tucson in an attached garage!

Bigger

Would make it more expensive than a RAV4 hybrid, and they'd start poaching their own sales. And they'd need a much more powerful electric motor. Complete redesign.

I'm not sure that squares, A_A_J. Apples to Apples, a plug in version of a Corolla Cross would unlikely out-cost a RAV4 Prime ($43,090). Also in 2024, the Venza is rumored to be coming out with plug in version; then over to Lexus, one has the NX450h PHEV. The Corolla Cross's direct competitor at Kia, for example, is the Niro PHEV; which starts at 33,840, while the Corolla Cross XSE Hybrid starts at $31,065; add the plug in feature for another $K or two and one can see there's plenty of room for PHEV options in this segment. Yes, it would need a *bigger battery* (for EV-only range), prol'ly requiring re-fit, but not necessarily a bigger electric motor.

Well it's not touting. It is only having a Prius engine. Being a larger SUV compared to a Prius it should have a bigger and better engine of course

@@levondarratt787 which would also make it more expensive, plus you lose the economy of scale for using the same engine and not having to have an extra production line. You can get ANYTHING if you want to pay for it. People looking for a corolla want to pay LESS, not more. You definitely don't need more power in this little SUV... 0-60 in about 8 seconds is more than enough.

Well the higher it is, the lower you are in the hierarchy on the roads. Truck drivers at the bottom. Formula 1 drivers are at the top. The lower you sit to the ground the better. It's the fallacy of American car buyers , they always need to make themselves look larger.... sits higher so the next car has to be even higher , and even higher and look over the other person. They constantly compete because of their inferiority complex.

To brag about a 0.001 better fuel economy 😁

Most cars don't use the rear for 95% of the time.

​@@A_A_J.Are you demented ? All of these fuel-efficient cars go to rental car companies, fleets companies Uber drivers and small families ..

@@levondarratt787 Even small families don't use the rear seats, most of the time. Most of the time it's just the driver. And for young families, a smaller back seat (smalLER, not small) is fine, because the kids are... small. Calm down.

@@A_A_J.in fact, small kids use more room. The backward facing car seats take up so much room that I don’t think this car can even work.

Cx30-25k -21mpg Corolla cross-35k - 40mpg Paying 10k more to save on fuel doesn’t make sense to me!

​@@cyrusthegreat3081the highest trim cx30 with not turbo engine you need to pay at least 33k

@@netgarnet4337 i have compared cross hybrid prices!

Exactly! So outdated, so cheap.

large screens are not as good as mid-sized screens. The screen you should be focused on is the WINDscreen.

Yeah, only in your dreams! 🤣🤣🤣

Same! I'm waiting to see if the 2024 has it. I want wind chill pearl with tan interior 😊

@@alaorilla9716 glad I’m not alone, I hate all black interiors! Hopefully they’ll add it because the Corolla hatchback has the macadamia interior with the same sport seats so I think it would be pretty manageable to produce the cross with the same interior

It’s because they used the se/xse trims which are supposed to be sporty as opposed to luxurious. I’m with you though, I’d prefer the full on softex interior as opposed to the mix interior

The ancient parkways in and around NYC have onramps that can be only a few feet long! Getting out of the way of trucks without buying a 60K SUV could be the most important choice you make.
