    Coming from a '10 Toyota Matrix, I would 100% be driving a Cross hybrid right now if any had been available back in December. But since it wasn't out yet, I went with the Rav4 hybrid. I absolutely love my Rav4 and have gotten used to it being a bigger vehicle than I've had before. I'm really glad I got it since I don't think I would have been willing to spend the extra money if the Cross had been available. The Rav is the most expensive car I've ever had, and it feels like luxury to me. :) I sure did love my little Matrix, though. That was a great little reliable car.

      I think you probably made a better choice honestly. My co-worker has a 2023 Corolla Cross hybrid and I have a 2019 Ford Fusion hybrid. (which uses Toyota's hybrid system btw) I was ecstatic to drive it.
      What an utter disappointment. Cheap interior quality (my friends 2012 Camry is worlds better), uncomfortable seats, poor visibility, VERY noisy and harsh ride. Honestly WORST back up camera I have ever seen. Besides the great storage space potential, I can't see a single thing that was better than my 4 year older Fusion. Not to mention my base model came standard with more tech; lane departure (hands free highway driving), automatic climate, voice navigation, a back up camera you can actually see, dual front power seats, emergency braking.
      He also told me his range is around 400 on a full tank. Mine is 620.
      I've only experienced older RAV4's, and they were better than this. You made the right choice.

    I went to build out this car on Toyota's US website. The low-end Cross doesn't even come with blind spot monitoring standard. The top-end Cross doesn't even come with JBL speakers standard. Unbelievable. New car prices and how much car insurance has gone up are ridiculous. My little mid-tier 2014 Mazda3 hatchback has blind-spot, Bose, leatherette heated seats, LED daytime running/head/brake lights, and even halogen fog lights. I got 150K miles and I'm keeping that until until I run it into the ground.

      That's the right thing to do: maintain & keep your older car/SUV clean & drive it as long as possible. You'll be well off in the long run. These new vehicles are much more advanced, no doubt, but some older vehicles can still be maintained & driven well.

    In the great second car category, I think this car should also be compared to a small EV like a Leaf or Bolt, especially if you have your own garage for charging. We live in the Pac NW, and have a 2022 Leaf as our city car and a 2023 Outback Onyx as our road trip car. In other words, we have a hybrid family fleet. Great review as always.

    I’m in Australia and got my top spec CC about two months ago after a 7 month wait. Very easy to drive and fuel economy is real though it does take a bit of trial and error to work out the best way to drive it to get the most efficiency. I assume it’s the same overseas but the petrol tank is not big so it can feel like you still need to fill up on a regular basis but it costs much less. Oh and I do love the panoramic moon roof!

  • @mov744
    @mov744 8 หลายเดือนก่อน +14

    I really like the Corolla Cross Hybrid for what it is and what it's not trying to be. It's become my go-to recommendation for anybody who wants an SUV that's straightforward to use and has all the creature comforts you'd need to survive the 4 seasons of Canada. No tricky infotainment, self-driving gimmicks or fiddling with EV charging, and I appreciate Toyota for keeping the Corolla Cross Hybrid simple in its design and usability. The power rear liftgate I'm okay with or without it. It's a nice convenience but also could be an expensive repair down the road.
    I think right now the only downside of the Corolla Cross Hybrid is supply of the vehicles. I haven't checked on the CCH specifically but I wouldn't be surprised if buyers of the CCH are faced with the same years long waitlist that buyers of the RAV4 are facing.

    I was sold on a Niro, my spouse wanted a Rav4, we ended up putting a reservation on a Corolla Cross XSE. Here in MD you gotta pick your dealerships (some are still adding msrket adjustments), but we found one and put a reservation down for it. Total agreed price is MSRP (as if you built it on their website) + taxes at 6% + title/registration/tags + $500 "processing fee" (not legally required, but legally capped, whereas in VA they can charge quite a bit more, and no dealerships around me *didnt* do the processing fee).
    We'll see if its a good pick - my work commute plus my spouse means we'll be putting over 25000 miles a year on it.

    We would have considered one of these when we recently purchased a new car, but the lack of availability hurts it (to be fair, availability is an issue with almost everything). In the end, we got a Subaru Forester Wilderness as we really liked the "rugged" look it has as well, but if there was a Corolla Cross available without having to wait a year for it, it would have been very high on our list too.

      Maybe I'm old school, but have never understood this idea of "ordering" a vehicle and waiting 12-18 months for delivery. How can you purchase a car without driving it? When I am in the market for a vehicle, it's because I need one NOW. If a particular dealer doesn't have what I am looking for, I simply move on until I find something.
      Doing research is all good and well, but in reality most vehicles today all look the same and reliability has "generally" improved on most brands. Different companies also work together all the time. My "Ford" Fusion Hybrid has Toyota's hybrid system and CVT, suspension mostly from Volvo, (phenomenal ride) and was assembled in Mexico. Don't just focus in on one particular model, options, and colors. This is how you end up paying more than the vehicle's worth.

    A month ago I purchased a 2023 Corolla Cross Hybrid SE and really like it so far. Many extras on it, including moonroof. Two things that Toyota should consider: 1) liftgate - can only open from outside. Previously I owned several base model Corollas and could always pop the trunk open from inside. 2nd - I expected an SUV version of a Corolla to be longer. It’s about 7” shorter. Some of that could be used for either more legroom for backseat passengers or more cargo room. Perhaps in future versions?

    It's on my list vs the 2024 Crosstrek Onyx. It's annoying that in Canada the roof rails, which should be standard on an SUV, are only available on the XSE trim (in the US they are also on the SE). Also why opt for. tiny 40L gas tank (max range 600-700 km, depending how you drive), while the Subaru competition are at 63L. Keep it 50 L as in the Corolla so that it could go the distance. For those who have already bought the 2023 CCH, I am curious to know how many L or gallons could you manage to fill in from an empty sign.

    I was talking with an older gentleman who went from a new FWD RAV4 (after 3 years) to a brand new Venza (fully loaded) And now, 3 years later, he now wants to buy this new Corolla. Money is not the object, it is newness and ease of access (mobility issues) that are the priority. Oh… and most importantly…. whatever ‘Consumer Reports’ says. I like this new Corolla, but I believe there to be so many better options (price/comfort/styling/road noise and quality wise) and I expect that this gentleman will rapidly be disappointed with his new upcoming purchase (he’s currently on a waiting list). I wish him luck. Thanks for the video.

    One thing rarely addressed in these videos is mid to long term reliability. Understandably, because it’s not their job.

    I’m 4’11” so always prefer small vehicles. If I were to get an SUV, I’d definitely look at the Corolla Cross. I’m with Zach: I prefer a dim/shaded interior. My new Honda Civic Touring has a moonroof, but I only pull back the shade if it’s cloudy out. A cloudy day gives a beautiful, soft and muted light. The Florida heat is scorching and the sunlight is waaaay too bright and harsh! (Hard on my eyes.) A cool, shady interior is comfortable and cozy! (Or in Canada, a warm, shady interior! 😉)

      @@johnmartin7158You’re right. Somehow, I have it stuck in my head that I need a small vehicle to drive it. That was true years ago. But now, with the way the interiors are designed, even a small person can see and reach the pedals at the same time.
      The new Civics are far larger than they used to be. They’re now as big as a ‘90’s Accord! 😳🤯 But I can see easily since the seat height is adjustable. (I still got a cushion to sit even higher though. Otherwise, the top of my head rests right between the top of the seat and the bottom of the headrest! Very uncomfortable. The cushion raises me high enough so my head actually rests on the headrest - barely. 🤪)

      @@SmartPracticeSuccess My wife is 5ft. The vehicle has 10 way seat adjustments like many other vehicles do. Another words, 5 adjustments going either way. Every time I get in the vehicle I have to lower the seat to the bottom and adjust the seat so it’s a long way from the pedals. And then I readjust to a custom position for me. Bit of a hassle, but that’s ok as it only takes a few seconds. I’m talking about the Rav4. But a lot of models have this now.
      It sounds as though you’ve found a way around things for a vehicle at least. I suppose all those things for vehicles come at a cost. Good luck with your vehicle choice and go with a vehicle that appeals to you.Even though I have a RAV4, I’m also quite partial to the Subaru Forrester and the new 2024 Honda CRV Touring Hybrid.

    I compared the cross hybrid to the Kia Niro HEV. The back seat legroom in the Cross hybrid was not good. The option packages on the Niro allowed me to get memory seats and even ventilated seats! These were not even options on the Cross Hybrid. With 16" tires, the Niro is rated at 53mpg and even with the 18" tires, rated at 48mpg. I chose the 16" tires and bought the Niro. Dash layout is nice. I do not like the infotainment screen bumping up from the dashboard (same issue with the Ford Escape). Niro was the winner, hands down.

      Update: Sat inside a SE hybrid and felt it was a bit cramped but still like the vehicle. Will investigate further in early May. Dealer told me 3 months to order one, not 8 months like last year. Only issue is OTD price compared to the Hyundai Kona Limited AWD. As I'm leasing, it depends on residual value and Toyota has a better resale value than Hyundai. That could make the difference with leasing even if the XSE will MSRP for about $1000 more with a couple of options, such as convenience package and JBL stereo.

Love the car and very quick with acceleration. Gas tank is a 35L and I do close to 600km of combined city / highway - 5.3-5.6L/100k. It is my second toyota hybrid. I surely miss my 2012 Prius V but I could not wait any longer. If you are considering any toyota products, put your name down on a list and see what comes up.
