2023 Toyota Corolla Cross Hybrid / Time for Redemption

- The Corolla Cross is boring, but for its purpose, there’s nothing wrong with that. For 2023, I think the addition of a hybrid model just about perfects its pragmatic proposition. Is it enough to topple the Subaru Crosstrek, Mazda CX-30, Honda HR-V and Hyundai Kona? Let’s find out.

I forgot to mention this but a notable nuisance with all corolla crosses, especially the hybrid, is the availability. They’re not easy to find and a markup is somewhat common with hybrids.
Your reviews are as much fun as they are informative,and I LIKE that. Car reviews by a geeky English major.😊
Its sad that these sensibly priced economy cars are getting price gouged by dealers everywhere. They knew these are the cars that people want for their daily, and they purposely made it more expensive than MSRP.
The car salesman just laughed. He's never easily sold a car loaded with everything with such a skimpy interior. But...reliability, low cost to repair, durability, mileage, and at least 5-8K less than the fully loaded RAV4 makes it make sense.
Respect your honesty and straightforwardness with these reviews.
was interested in this car - thanks for the review- and love the hair
Super-thorough and sensible review, even touching on that one thing reviewers seldom (i.e., never) touch - reliability. Personally, I'd go for an HR-V if only Honda would increase its power, one way or another.
Good review man!
I have the personality of a granny. I like simple , plain jane, practical and more affordable cars. Theres plenty of flashy “exciting” options out there already ☝️👵
how quiet is the car? road noise on highway? Compare to CRV hybrid and Prius? thanks
I hate these reviews on Toyota hybrids because #1 you cannot get them without 6-18months wait #2 you cannot get them without dealer mark ups
How does this compare to a previous gen Rav 4 hybrid?
Yeah if this car had the Prius interior it would be the total package! Also the Crosstrek would really benefit from this drivetrain.
$30k-40K for something that looks like an uninspired $20K budget appliance. Also, love the classy-looking muffler & exhaust system hanging down from the rear view. Nice!
Another problem I have with this vehicle is it looks like something that could have come out 10 years ago.
She’s very basic, the muffler looks like a wardrobe malfunction but at the $29-32k mark for an s or se, I like it considering the power and efficiency. Put a markup on that and I’m out immediately.
Few thing to add. the steering is finger move but when you drive in imperfection road the steering hold it position rather good that don't let your car sway. also this is a commute car for work or grocery so it very good on fuel (5.7L/100km) even when I drive in my aggressive mode. also this is the only Subcompact hybrid available that no other competitor have.
Thank you for a straight-forward review! You asked for styling comments: I like the gas Cross' styling MUCH better than the Hybrid's--the bulbous nose and larger grill of the Hybrid are, IMHO, ugly! Toyota--please put the hybrid system in the better-looking Cross...and, add a spare tire while you're at it!
Good simple reliable and practical transportation... Toyota manages to still deliver quality product in such a crazy market when the new average price of a vehicle is over $45k!!!
It really fits the Toyota persona to a T!
I always enjoy your videos but I’m always perplexed by the 0-60 chart times. There are 2 different times with each car you test, but never any info on the charts why each time is varied. Maybe you could make it more clear in the future? Thanks for all you do. This may be my future car!
I usually include a little blurb there but the number I circle is called 1 ft rollout. It’s the number that most outlets and manufacturers use when referring to “0-60.” Despite some misinformation out there, it’s the industry standard, which I’m not a big fan of so I include the full sheet so you can use the raw data if you want it! 1ft rollout tends to be around a quarter second less than the actual 0-60 mph.
Thanks for the feedback! Now I know…
@@wackit6756 You're welcome, thank you for watching!
Isn't there three electric motors? One in the front and two in the rear?
just two drive motors. one up front, one at the rear. There is a third motor but that's "inside" the transmission and doesn't power the wheels.
i have a corolla cross with 2.0 gas engine and i dont find it underpowered. i use extreme driving style to get 5.0L/100km, which is 47 MPG, better or match the hybrid 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.
I see, I feel it is alright for the intended purpose but I hear a ton of complaints from people that drive those and 2 liter crosstreks at high elevation (or not) so I more than welcome the hybrid’s existence for people that want more effortless acceleration. It also takes efficiency to the extreme too so if you can really manage 47, the hybrid would be insane for you!
@@Realistick i agree with you.
Hi! I'm not sure if I understood the heated seats section. Does the basic 2023 Toyota Corolla Cross Hybrid not come with heated front seats?
No 😢
You need to get the XSE for heated seats.
When you mention headroom, legroom, etc., please say your height please!
He did, He said he was 6.3 at 2:00
Averaging only 42 mpg? Well, that is massive disappointment. That is the average I have been getting in my RAV4 Hybrid XSE.
Ive also been driving it a bit aggressively and on the highway a lot too. 45 mpg for in town driving is pretty easy for it to hit!
Budget-minded choice for a lot of people. Retirees particularly.
Hurray, again appearing in trunk again. 😊
Oh I see that the Corolla Cross has the same 34 year old gloomy, depressing, outdated, drab Gray interior
A valid criticism for a GR Corolla but the cheapness is a much bigger flaw for the corolla cross than the color!
Decontenting is alive and well. Taking rear wiper away from base model is cringy.
An insult for $29k, I’d definitely jump for an se.
the exterior design looks simple and cheap, the interior looks 10 years old, I really don´t like this car, thanks for the review 😀
She’s highly functional but enough of an appliance that you could buy it at Home Depot
i thought the same until i bought this car and it grew on me overtime. i now thoroughly enjoy this car with its smooth Cvt and overall easiness to drive. i sound proved it, added a nice stereo with sub so now it matched my friends lexus RX in terms of quietness and audio performance. besides, i manage to get 47 MPG over 5000KM of driving since new.
❤❤❤
Turkiyede lansmani yapilip

The Corolla Cross isn’t as good as a Subaru Crosstrek or Forester in off road conditions & the Corolla Cross’s engine is wimpy
Indeed it’s not good for off-roading, not the point. The hybrid corolla cross is quicker, far more efficient and more practical than a crosstrek. It’s all about what’s important to you. (I’d pick the crosstrek personally)
169HP is hardly wimpy, lol. back in the 90th, 170HP is considered high performance.
@@Realistick we drove Toyota’s for 40+ years but after buying 1/4 of a mountain and building our home into the side, we got tired of having to put studded tires on our vehicles for our cold snowy winter months. Our Toyota’s were AWD.
I bought my wife an Outback for her birthday and she drove it the first 2 winters with just the factory all season tires and we never had a problem.
Last year I wanted to replace my 12 year old Rav 4WD so I bought a Forester Touring.
I looked at the Crosstrek, but it didn’t have enough room for my needs.
We’re very happy with our Subaru’s, but in 2025 we’ll be selling her Outback and our 4WD pickup and buy a new Tacoma Limited hybrid 4WD.
@@walltiger6603 The Subaru has 182hp
Bro the corolla cross hybrid has more power than a crosstrek 2.5L
its just not an attractive car. And it's not fun to drive either. very bland
