The Toyota Yaris Cross is a small SUV that, as the name suggests, is based on the regular Yaris supermini. It has a higher ride height, rugged styling and a more spacious interior and is only available with a hybrid powertrain. The latter means it can run on electric power for short distances and is capable of returning class-leading fuel economy of around 60mpg. In a market crammed with very talented small SUVs such as the Ford Puma, Skoda Kamiq and the Carbuyer-award-winning Renault Captur, is the promise of low running costs enough to tempt buyers? Nicola gets behind the wheel to find out.

Well i disagree with you regarding the back seats. I am 1,86m (around 6F) and i can comfortably sit on the back and have plenty of space for my knees, feet and head. Even with the front seat adjusted for myself i still fit on the back no problem at all. And please stop saying the head- and taillights are the same as the regular Yaris, they are not...

Hi. Does this car have automatic lock?
I‘m 1,86 too and i can sit in the back of the cross but not the yaris
Women ☕
Yep. I am 6.2 and I am completely fine in the back
I watched this video few months ago and I went for it ! Have one since 3 months now, it’s all what she said pros and cons 😃. I am adding few wind noise from the driver window on the highway, reliability and connection of the media can be better except that mechanical reliable and very pleased to drive it ! No regret.
This is the first @carbuyer video I've watched in quite a while. I think the approach to this review is absolutely perfect for the general person; not over emphasising mediocrity, recognising that some things just aren't important, and the communication doesn't assume knowledge of vehicles. Very much like early @carbuyer reviews.
The sub 10 minute length is perfect, too. Nobody wants to spend 20+ minutes watching someone wiggle every bit of plastic or sticking stuff in fake holes...
Thank you, Richard. We put a lot of time and effort into tailoring our reviews to our audience, so we're pleased you like it! Plenty more to come.
'Sticking stuff in fake holes' can't think who you are referring to? Ouch!
Unlike a certain Matt somebody
Noting to do with the attractive presenter?
My only negative is that it is appropriate to say it is based on the regular Yaris. However the constant references and comparisons through the video to the Yaris could put some people off buying one as why pay extra just for a Yaris. Perhaps Toyota should have given it a different name . It is more than that and should be reviewed on its own and compared to the Puma and Tcross or Troc and see how they compare price and spec wise.
Another brilliant review, well done. I love your style of presentation, informative yet lively and dynamic.
Nice review. I have the standard Yaris MK3 hybrid with 99hp. This new MK4 is 114hp, but since it's in an SUV body it's suited to city and short - medium distance driving. Long distance will be pretty poor with engine noise due to the low power of the car and CVT gearbox. However practicality of this better than the normal yaris as mentioned in the review.
I tested one of these yesterday. Really refined. Farewell crashy suspension. Really comfy and the engine is so much better than the previous gen Yaris. The engine noise was nothing like a diesel! It just sounded like a nice, pokey petrol engine and was never loud or intrusive. The dials are completely different to a normal Yaris also. One big display instead of two binacles. Much better. So good I ordered one!
The noise from the engine is the result of using an engine having three cylinders instead of four. Three exhaust pulses every two crankshaft rotations is more intermittent than four every two crankshaft rotations. Many hybrid vehicles are opting for three cylinders.................It is cheaper to make a three-cylinder engine.

@@ramishrambarran3998 I have a 3 cylinder turbo in my car. It's no cheaper to manufacture but it is much more economical than a 4 cylinder.
@@simonthomas5367 What I meant, is for Toyota, it is cheaper to manufacture a three cylinder engine, rather than a four cylinder engine. Too, the engine physical size may be smaller than a four cylinder engine.....And I am not doubting that your engine may be more economical than a four cylinder engine of the same displacement.
Just remember that the turbo is the life....and death of an engine. They usually have a shorter serviceable life than the engine itself. The renewal of a turbo will set you back (not the car manufacturer) a few thousand dollars. Yes, The trend is to put smaller turboed engines into vehicles today, to get the power of a bigger engine. But YOU pay for all of that when its time to renew the turbo.
Add that to your savings in gasoline !

@@ramishrambarran3998 Yes I completely agree there. In fact, my 3 cylinder is a bi-turbo which is what makes it particularly economical. But as you say, more parts = more to go wrong! I also run a couple of Honda's from the 1990's. One mono and one four cylinder. Both with carbs. Both indestructible! Bizarrely, modern bike displacement is now getting bigger to pollute less. Or at least to comply with Euro Norms. The world is turning upside down!
Another great review giving all necessary information in a very entertaining manner with a nice clear recommendation at the end. (No sitting on the fence)
Great video with quick insights about the beauty
Hi. Does this car have automatic lock? I mean when I sit inside the car and start the engine and move it doesn't lock the doors automatically.
Thankyou for such a great review 😀
Really impressive but I do think it’s a bit too small to make a family car. I think it’s going to be popular with older people and perhaps couples without children
Great review. Wouldn't worry about CVT gearbox acceleration noise, it won't break. Most of us have radio, media on in car when driving. Toyota should improve on sound proofing across their range though. Having driven or owned, Prius, ct200h, rav4, etc.. the Toyota hybrid is the best and most reliable. Sister has Mercedes hybrid, starter motor went in under 3yrs, computer stats showed car restarted itself 50 times in 6km driving. Starter motor around 1k euros. Toyota have different set-up. No one does hybrid like them.
They are the leader in hybrid technology.

I own one of these with the I-AWD and it is a fine car. We live in a cold climate with ice/snow 6 months of the year and it deals with it just fine. Most impressive is all the tech, heated seats/steering wheel, Adaptive cruise, heads up, hill descent assist, snow mode etc. Get one second hand/ex demo and you won’t be upset with the approved used Toyota 10 year warranty.
I’m not blown away by the MPG, but our other car is a PHEV so I’m not comparing apples to apples.
If i may ask, which edition is this Yariss Cross and which color as well? Nice video!
Could you do a group review of the Yaris Cross against the Ford puma and Renault Captur. I would like to see how the Yaris cross goes up against it’s rivals. Please. Thank you.
Just picked up our new Yaris cross icon model it's brilliant.
Mpg great.
I drive the new Rav4 which is outstanding but this new Yaris cross is lovely albeit noisy should you put your foot down.
Well presented and a change for a presenter not imitating the usual voice
Do you know the diference between icon and design?
I think the Design has larger wheels and a few other bits not quite sure.
Toyota website will update you.
Really enjoyed this review. Thanks!
Can this car remote start itself on winter days? Sick of pouring water of the car in winter.
Great review 👍
how much cost in this car in Canada?
Is it all wheel drive?
Is there hand brakes?
Have you guys seen Bec anywhere.
Apart from the build quality it’s a nice car I’ve got a CHR and it’s built better and rides better and more refined on long trips. I’d still buy a Yaris Cross though but would not pick it over the CHR.
Just bought my Yaris and i simply love my baby. It is the envy of all .GOD bless
Lovley video of a nice car...my next one in the summer. 😎....everybody does not love manual gearbox. I just love the CVT automatic on my current Yaris
Have Hyundi Kona good car .viewed the x over Reminding me of Dacha Duster when close door noisy vibration of the door panel,wondering how much sound deading they have put on the inside.usually black bitumen self adhesive pad 9inches x20inches no spare wheel pity .impressive car good experience but I con model to design model big jump in price not getting value for what you pay to upgrade
2:30 ou peut on trouver ce modèle ci de protection de siège arrière et de coffre ?
It comes as part of the suv pack :)
Is this a self charging or l plug in hybrid? I can't find out on the Toyota website.
Self charging.
Amazingly engaging and lovely review....you carried me along...... 😊
Thank you so much 🙂
My Mother-in-law has just traded in her RAV4 for one of these, it's perfect for her!
Great review as always 👍
If your mother-in-law loved her RAV4 but wants something a little smaller, we reckon this will suit her perfectly!
What's the delivery time for the Cross? I'm still waiting for a Yaris 4 months later, have now been told it's March - that's 8 months!
I mentioned the same in my review, It’s got very similar styling to the Rav 4 and many customers will be current Toyota owners!
@@triv7252 I think everyone is waiting until March I’ve seen on the forums, enjoy it!
@@Carcode I have a Toyota Yaris Icon Tech at the moment, and I was leaning towards getting a Rav 4, but this Yaris Cross would be ideal for me. It's like a baby Rav 4 lol. I hope to get the AWD model of this. The Dyenamic isn't it?
Nice review
Very nice video amazing Sub-Compact-SUV 👍👌
Why on earth won't Toyota lauch the Yaris Cross in 🇮🇳 🤦🙎😥
We Need a GR Version.
I've test-driven the hybrid version. It unexpectedly has a lot of torque and is very fun to zoom around.
Yes I was surprised when I reviewed it, as soon as I took my foot off the brake it launched forwards!
same as a Prius, whodathunkit?
what is torque?
@@lavanyabudhan1988
Use the Internet to find out.
It's quite easy,it's been around for 30 years or more,try it!
Please review the Toyota Raize
07:06 - I think Toyota's changed the manufacturer warranty to 3 years now (not 5 years) since April 2021 hence they now offer up to 10 years extended warranty with a service.
Sorry Sam, you are absolutely right! Apologies for that oversight.
Big mistake if they have as other makes such as Renault have even moved to a 5 year warranty now.
@@Silver-st2zq sure, but Toyota extend that warranty by 12 months every time you get your car serviced by them.
@@AsimSheikh So you paying for that extra two years on top of the three with main dealer service prices if you intend to keep it long term over the 10 years or more.
Subaru pulled the same stunt this year with the new Outback, down from 5yr to 3yr, but part owned by Toyota, and i don't believe in coincidences. 🤦♂
I have been a Corolla owner for the last 24 years two Corolla's and never a failed MOT its time for a down size but the yaris is far too expensive now for what it is so unfortunately will be looking at some different makes and just get used to the not so good reliability.
@7:57 the noise you are complaining about is in fact the 3 Cylinder vibrations
Umm... is there a clutch pedal?
Is there one without the black roof trim? It makes most car, C-HR, like the Black hole of Calcutta (which ever spelling you use).
The very well equipped Design doesn’t have black trim
Excel edition
Absolutely. Only top-spec cars get the two-tone paint with black roof.
Great review Nicola!
Thanks so much Arie!
No spare tyre then?
Toyota needs to offer these Yaris Cross Hybrids in the US!
I test drove one in October decided to buy one traded in my Chr it still is not built now December dealer can not give a me a date when it will be delivered .May have to look something else.
Why you decided to select this over your ChR? Did you ever get it and what are your thoughts now that you own one?
Wish we got this and the regular Yaris in the US
Yeah it is quite nice, please have a look at my review of it! I’ve been quite critical with it and you shouldn’t worry because there are many small suv rivals in the US. The fuel economy is excellent though!
You don’t deserve it.
Same wheel base but wider and longer? Huh, how does that make sense please someone help me out here
Price
Wow , Its design is very good👍
How much is this car
She does the best reviews. Not much more to say !
Noticed that grumbling from the engine as soon as you started driving. Seems to occur even under light throttle inputs? Not sure I would want to put up with that noise every time you breathe on the throttle, never mind booting it! Otherwise seems pretty good.
Hybrids like this definitely encourage a gentler approach, and if you're mainly running around town we'd wager you'd barely notice it. But when you're hammering along country roads like Nic? That's a different story...
I think it the way the cvt works . Floor it and the gear holds and the revs build dramatically. Smooth acceleration,its fine and as soon as you back off the revs the cvt is very smooth.👍
Likewise, I noticed the vocal engine before it was mentioned. I'm not sure if I could zone that out over the longer term, so it's unlikely I would commit to a purchase.
It depends very much on the battery state of charge.
The best way to drive any Toyota hybrid, such as the Prius, is not to stamp on the throttle but to press and dig in more and more. That way it feels like a big engine under medium load. There are over 20 "modes" that a hybrid synergy drive engine/computer can operate under.
The entire hybrid's drivetrain response will give much more of a refined shove sensation building up speed rather than the cvt-scream of a pedal to the metal approach.
I do think it's part of the psycholical part of the Toyota hybrid system to get the fuel usage down. You try to be below that annoying drone....
Toyota hybrid motors grumble, the reason it sounds like that is because its of the Atkinson cycle (for efficiency), Coupled with ecvt and constant revs in the most efficient power range.
The Yaris Cross I hear you say, do they do different versions such as the Yaris Slightly Upset or a hot one called the Yaris Livid? Great review with some great little nuggets of fun. "... grumpy moustache but in a fun way", "... and you can look down your nose at the regular Yaris divers", "... a little shelf here for your phone and Fruit Pastils", "... on a motorway it does feel comfy shmumfy".
Nice one Nicola, informative and entertaining at the same time. Lovely jubly.
Great review as usual, looks a great car. >55mpg sounds good.
Thanks Adrian! And yes, Toyota's hybrid powertrains make lots of sense for those unable to plug in regularly...
its like the toyota chr crossovers little brother or sister ,but in my opinion toyota as cornered the market on midrange family cars and hibrids
wow so nice sharing😍💓👌
I want ! But sadly not available here in the US.
Not to worry! The chr is a better car all together, I made a review on the Yaris Cross and it has quite a few negatives!
Like the CHR I like how this looks but the racket from the CVT kills it for me
CVTs are much better than they were, but still not perfect...
I've driven a CVT for the last 4 years, don't have a problem with it, as long as you don't drive it like a boy racer it's fine.
We have the Rav4 hybrid with a cvt and the noise is not too intrusive but the sound deadening is much better than the Yaris.
Amy Simpson from Pulse Radio Forza Horizon 5. reminds me so much of Nicola!
Very similar funny presentation style.
Does anyone else think the same??
Neither this Yaris Cross nor the "standard" Yaris seem to be made for a family. When you see how limited the space is in the backseat and how much (or better: little, I would say a crack) the rear doors open, you wonder what the manufacturers' thinking here is. If I (with my 6 ft) had to sit behind myself and squeezed myself through that crack, I poke my knees into the driver's seat.
Try installing a child seat in a Yaris/Yaris Cross 🥴, let alone "filling" that seat... 🥵
And now compare the space, especially in the back of this Yaris Cross with a Honda Jazz or if you prefer the "SUV/Crossover" look the Jazz Crosstar. These are 13.5 or 9 cm. shorter, 7 cm. narrower and have a 4 cm. shorter wheelbase. But... a lot more space and much better accessible!
And yes, you have about 85 liters of boot space less in the Honda's, but are you looking for a (small) family car, maybe look at this Carbuyer video th-cam.com/video/b3x3DHkbXms/w-d-xo.html (from 1 :25 or maybe better from beginning to end).You see how wide the doors open en how much space one has in the back? And those "magic seats"?
Take both, the Yaris Cross and the Honda Crosstar for an extensive test drive. Anyone facing such a choice should!!!
That could be a very surprising experience!😲
Can't say I'm a fan of this 'cheeky chatter' style seemingly par for the course for car reviews these days. Did it all start with Top Gear? I dunno. It's a car with a setlist of criteria that is either met or not. You could say what needs to be said in half the time.
Great car!
£2000 more for LED headlights, what a bargain :P 4:21
Basic but ergonomic interior quality and layout. Very effective heated seats with 2 levels. Surprising steering wheel heating option that works well. Appealing exterior. 4x4 would be my preference instead of fwd. Very good front visibility, good parking camera/guide. Slightly underpowered for merging and highway performance. Rear gate struts need to be more powerful to allow for door to open on its own. Rear gate latch is badly designed and gate needs to be slammed to shut properly. Jittery ride on uneven pavement, unlike other Toyotas (Camry, Corolla). Suspension could be improved. Economical MPG but the fuel tank small size makes this car a runabout city auto , not a long range cruiser.
I actually think the grumbly engine note adds to the utilitarian and robust character of an SUV.
I have the 99hp Yaris MK3 hybrid, I can tell u it's only good for city/short distance driving, some medium distance driving & once in a while long distance. If regular medium to long distance are driven its horrible with the engine drone due to low power output and CVT gearbox.
Now am looking to get the corolla 2.0 hybrid Hb as I have outgrown the Yaris for a long time.
Fabulous car review
Hope you'll do the new Aygo X as soon as you can. Thanks a lot. Cheers
I’m planning to do a review on the Aygo x when it hits showrooms early next year, in the meantime please watch my review on the Yaris Cross :)
0:34 I don't care much for the nooks and crannies... I'm here for the doodah's...
😁PUMA hybrid offering also flexfuel E85 option...
Looks completely different than a Yaris even though it's based on the chassis. It's not like the Tesla Model Y is for example to the Model 3, ie raised and mostly looking the same. The engine sounds more like V6/V8 (it has 3 cylinders so half a V6) but with the transmission am sure it will sound a bit strained at times. Overall I find myself liking that - reminds me of a small Daihatsu 4x4. Shame they don't do a plug-in hybrid however, which can self-charge or take a top up from the wall, although the battery probably is too small to justify it but some folks already have a home charger now and it's difficult to find a small BEV with a good range. I think the Cross has approx 400 miles of range total.
I'm wondering ! What is the "magic" or "wisdom" or whatever in 3cylindr engines. Are they really reliable and economical?
There are Toyota Prius taxis with virtually the same engine and battery with 500,00o+ miles on the clock. Toyota engines are almost indestructible.
The Ford ecoboost engines are troublesome. The Toyota is a far better long term buy.
Sparewheel? She is nice by the way, greetings from netherlands.
Very nice Toyota Yaris Cross🙂👍🚗
btw all Toyotas now that are on the new hybrid platform has that grumble noise so get used to it, or don't get a Toyota hybrid.
Great review. I thought that this car was so different from a Yaris it could have had a new name too. Seems to be a decent car
Thanks for watching!
Yeah I mentioned this in my video of it, it’s like an entirely different car it just shares the platform and hybrid technology that the normal Yaris has!
@@Carcode it’s like the Fiesta and Puma.
@@oliverstemp9132 Yeah exactly like that!
**NOT a CVT*
The CVT is the worst thing about this car, it was the reason we got rid of our C-HR after just over a year. The motorway mpg is terrible too
Interesting you say that higher-speed fuel economy isn't very good - we've always seen decent mpg from these Toyota hybrids, both around town and on the motorway.
The d-4d Yaris manual is better mechanically. Rock solid mpg and tons of torque. CVT is absolutely terrible
@@carbuyer I have the standard Yaris. I do 500 miles per week on motorways and get 63mpg all the time.
Good to know this car is comfy schmumfy...a point rarely noted in car reviews... ;-)
I found it quite comfortable too apart from the strange headrests, I wasn’t a fan of those! Please check out my review thanks!
I had no idea Eva Green is doing car reviews.
It has no fake exhaust pipes. And that is great!
I enjoyed watching the Video Review. I saw my second one today
I only watch for Nicola! ☺️
I like Toyota but Nicola fascinated me a lot more than the new Yaris. Very nice woman 🙂, greetings from Slovakia 🇸🇰
Don’t be weird
Isn't there a Yaris cross that isn't a hybrid? I want a non hybrid version of this car
I believe it's only available as a hybrid.
in Australia there is a petrol version too
Funky car with an even funkier reviewer.
Toyota should call Suzuki and get their 1.4 booster jet engine !
It’s quieter than my Prius when testing it out
Was looking to buy this to my mom but interior looks very basic and cheap. I'll pick Peugeot or Audi instead.
Yeah this is something I picked up on in my review, I’ve tried the Peugeot 2008 and the Hyundai Bayon and both felt more premium! It’s a shame, I’m sure your mum will be very happy with either the Audi or Peugeot!
@@Carcode just subscribed your channel mate! Well done! I loved it! 👏
@@Carcode what?? Bayon feels more premium than this toyota?? For me bayon is example of cheap plastic interior...but i didn't drive it so maybe i am wrong
@@trkadirsaltan Thanks that’s great! :)
@@daracd2143 Yes the Bayon was certainly much better! There was still cheap plastic but the infotainment system was 10x better in the Hyundai.
They would sell more if it wasn't called a Yaris. People seem very sniffy about the little smaller 1.3 and tbf this does not even look like a Yaris.
In my opinion the term "self charging" is the greatest con perpetrated on the car buying public. The only way to get energy into the car is by pouring petrol into the fuel tank & burning it!
Remember if the car has a chimney its not electric!
Eat ze veggie bugz.
Are we?
Do we?
Have we?
entertaining, fun and great review as usual, now waiting for Nicola to review the *Yaris Seething Mad* edition next....😂 Toyota needs to watch the large gaps between tyres and arches, looks bad, and reminds me of the previous Mazda gaffs exactly the same, along with too much plastic arch cladding, like the CX-30. Puma still wins i think...
Agree with you about the wheel arches, I think they look a bit silly on a car this size anyway.
No spare wheel
It’s a shame the 9 inch HD cloud navigation system intermittently connects and disconnects by itself. I just can’t trust it. Toyota are aware of the problem since 2021 but they still haven’t sorted out the problem. Mean time Toyota are still selling faulty 9 inch and display with cloud navigation fault which displays as “No Connection”. This is happening all around the U.K. and is not restricted to one area. The cloud navigation system relies on 4G telephone system via Vodaphone system connected to Toyota. If you want to use apple car play or android auto then go ahead but this is costing the customer data, the cloud navigation is free and it should work. Toyota U.K. as customers to go to Main dealers but all they do is disconnect the small 12 volt battery and reconnect, this re-boots the cloud navigation system and the could navigation works for a few days and then “no connection” fault appears again. Toyota U.K. have no answer to this problem but are still selling cars with the cloud navigation system fitted.
While I have to say this a very good review I once again wonder since you Brits luckily have adopted the metric system, WHY DON´T YOU GO ALL THE WAY and drop these antiquated MPG and miles units?? Are you using gallons on a daily basis for liquids? Or miles? So what´s the problem?
It's 3 year and 60k warranty on Toyota not 5 year and 100k, they changed it. I found our when I went to buy the Yaris Cross.
You are absolutely right. Apologies for this oversight.
10 ans , avec entretien chez Toyota
@@sushiadventures4595 that's the extended warranty and via their relax scheme not the standard manufacturers warranty.
I was a little perplexed why they cut it while introducing the relax scheme :/
In Croatia YOU have 10 Years! (Or 185.000 km) ,but YOU must go once in year in Toyota service
I would gladly trade my 2022 Jimmy with this.
It will be much more refined than your Jimny for sure! I made a review of it and I liked it but it doesn’t have as much character as the little Suzuki :)
@@Carcode Just saw your review, liked it a lot. Would be very interesting to see your review on the new Jimny. Character is all that car has. You think the seats and Interior in the Yaris cross has issues 😊 would love to see your expression in the Jimmy like what the..... lol. You are a young Lad so for you the jimny seats might be ok. But the amount of money I'm spending on it just to make it normal, it is absurd. Customized seats, sound proofing, suspension and tyres for stability. As I said, would gladly trade my Jimny for the yaris cross anyday!!!
@@Jsmashfq Aw thanks for watching! Yes maybe the Yaris Cross might be better for you, much more refined than the Jimny. It’s very hard to get hold of a Jimny at the moment, and the pricing is ridiculous!!! I think the higher price along with raving reviews have drawn people to think that the Jimny is for them but….. it’s not made to be a comfy cruiser!! That is annoying that you’ve had to spend all that money on it, I’m sure you will sell it for more than you bought it for. I think a better choice may be the Skoda Kamiq, it still has suv chunky styling but feels more premium than both the Jimny and Yaris Cross! :)
@@Carcode Agreed!!
Pretty mad how there's only 1 engine to choose from
Unless you're looking for an electric vehicle, it makes a pretty solid case for itself!
@@carbuyer I guess you're right it's just weird knowing a new car only has on option when it comes to engines
I don't like how the new Yaris(not the cross) looks. I liked the previous generation.
