I just bought a T-Cross because it looks better - simple as that, life is too short so sometimes we need to go for things that bring more joy than maybe more sense
If you are going to keep the car even after the warranty expires, then the only clever choice is Toyota. With VW, you get huge bills every time when there is a tiny thing to fix.
@KongWaiKei why would they voided your warranty? Unless you upgrade something inside of your car which could potentially breach your warranty. Nonetheless. Voiding your warranty means you did something stupid that you are not aware of.
Good and honest review...good work, for me I think my vote goes for the Toyota Yaris, I like more the external/internal looks of the T-Cross and I believe it's slightly stronger on the motorway, however,the hybrid tech resulting in fuel economy , the reliability of Toyota on the long run plus better financing offered gives my vote to the Yaris cross.....tuff decision though..
The Yaris will last longer, cost lesser to maintain, and cheaper on fuel. Not forgetting better 2nd hand value. Just can’t believe both cost over 30k for a basic power train. Since when cars became this $$$? Another great review Tom!
@@lord_flashheart Toyota Yaris Cross in my country i could get in similar price is not a hybrid or automatic. I was thinking about petrol 120 HP manual version.
Great Reviews. I also had to chose between these (and the cx 3) and went with the T-Cross. The general look of the Yaris Cross is just so underwhelming. Outside really hard to like for my taste and the inside might look ok if it was 2012, but not today anymore. Production of Yaris Cross started 2020 (!), the T-Cross ist from 2018. How can you make the interior of a new produced car already look outdated? Even the interior of the Mazda CX3 from 2015 looks more modern than the Yaris Cross. As a customer I dont care much of the hard plastics in a car, especially if you dont ever touch them. In fact the soft touch materials are often annoying to clean as you feel the need for special products. If you have kids, the hard plastic might even come handy... The only advantage in the Yaris Cross for me is fuel consumtion, well surprise surprise its a hybrid so its kind of comparing apple and pears in this category. Plus the numbers of the T-Cross are allright as well. Anyhow, If you buy a cross SUV, budget obviously isn´t your main concern, as you could just buy a small car that does the same job done. Easy choice here... T-Cross all the way!
why do reviewers care so much about the hard plastics ? those areas are barely ever touched and as long as the steering and gear shift feels good thats the main thing
Just been to the BXL motor show and came up with these two as the best two small SUVs in terms of interior space. It was good to see these two head to head in this excellent review!
@@BrateTebra123 You're forgetting it's a hybrid with much more safety features as standard, less mechanical parts, lower service expenses and much, much more fuel economy!
Drove yaris today. Tried to like it but vibration and noise when motor kicks in was nuts. Drive hybrid CHR afyer and was way better. Bought neither as styling of CHR didn't suit. Yaris with CHR motor etc would have been a good combo. I know they are aiming for a segment of the market but that basics didn't seem locked down and thought was very unrefined
The hybrid Yaris X would be my pick also. I also doubt that the VW will go much past 5 years of driving before the repair and maintenance bills started to bite hard.
If that's your concern Il tell you a way to avoid the potential big repair bills .when it's 4 and bit year old put it up for sale with factory warranty in place (as once warranty expires euro valuation falls of a cliff) .Once sold buy a new one and repeat the experience again you'll never have to face major repair bills associated with aging euro
@@robertceroli3512 I have owned 2 new VWs from new and found for me the issues started in earnest after around 2.5 years. I have gone back to Toyota and guess what... no issues. Others may have had better experiences, for me given the issues and VW’s risible attitude to customer issues I’m staying away from anything in the VAG stable.
The VW is not likeBMW and Mercedes. They are more simpler with not much sophistication , indeed very reliable. But yet Yaris X with hybrid - would economical and with almost 2 decades of Toyota's hybrid would be one of the most reliable car.
test drived both, really wanted to like the Yaris Cross, not much of choice for a small SUV Hybrid, but the engine is really noisy, the back doors don't open well, which isn't comfortable when you drive kids on the back seats. I ordered VW T-cross 1.5, 4-cylinders instead.
@hellolau bought a t cross 1.5 evo tsi r line,150 bhp recently! Not disappointed with the overall quality and performance after having a 1,4 tsi golf , vw as with other car makers are all down grading Engines and quality interiors ? A 1.0 ltr engine is a big no no for me just under powered
@@hellolau After almost a year, I can say that I'm pretty happy with my choice. The 1.5 is a good option for driving outside the city; it's spacious inside but very compact for city driving.
@@stefm573 I agree! The 1.5 is a better choice, and I'm very satisfied so far. However, the fuel economy is around 7/100 in city driving, which is not very efficient.
Interesting comparison. Here in UK, the Yaris Cross hybrid has yet to launch, but those consumption figures are brilliant. VW residuals here are slightly better than Toyota though. I love the look of the Yaris, but will wait to see what the pricing looks like when it arrives. I hate the lack of a driver's central armrest as that is part of my preferred driving position. I have loved Toyota's in the past but feel I may have missed something by never owning a Volkswagen...
Not to worry. The Euro versions have an armrest. Silly that the Australian versions don't unless it's to keep the price low. Blaming the exclusion on the centre airbag is a bit lame.
My wife and I brought a T Cross and I think the main point of difference between it and most of its competitors in this class is the VW has a 7 speed DSG gearbox and most of the asian rivals have CVT transmission and that was the main reason we chose the VW.We love it
If I’m spending 30k, I would want interiors in which I can amaze my friends with interiors, that’s where a 30k Skoda or Hyundai packs the deal for me. Build quality and hybrid power is important but interiors first.
we all like german quality. but they have to understand that reliability, low and cheap maintenance are the most important thing when you buy this cars and that where toyota shine
Well, manufacturers decided to increase prices of former low budget cars so that consumers find larger cars a better deal... and chose to buy a larger car. ou can buy a T-Roc or a Corolla Cross (coming soon) with a few extra euros (or whatever your currency is)... That's a market strategy. That's why there are no longer cheap cars. SUVs are just more heavy and inefficient. Driving these cars may give a feeling of security or even superiority for their higher seating position. But it's mostly fake. A bit more space for sure, but pay attention to safety driving. Check the stability tests of these cars and you'll see what I'm talking about (braking distances, handling in emergency situations...). And try to take these machines outside good condition roads and you'll see why they are called SUVs and not 4x4. But, that's the way car manufacturers are making money. That said, putting small batteries and calling them HEV or PHEV helps keeping the internal combustion engine market alive. Engines much cheaper to build and there again, making more profit! For sure a hybrid (HEV and NOT a PHEV) is a better economic choice and the one you should pick (but maybe not the SUV version).
i think that the extra hight of this segment is bringing you more option to go on a road / trail trip with your famly. and for a guy like me who travel on pathes and easy trails (mybe 20 - 25 time a year) it is worth it. and for the combustion engine. toyota has made her self clear that her way of thinking is "better 10 hybrid cars than on electric" because of the polution that are made on the bettery manufacture and the cost/ benefit that you get from hybrid vs electric
How does Toyota offer tech like head up display, kick tailgate and Junction AEB on a Yaris Cross when the RAV4 even in top of the range spec misses out on all of this?
I have ordered my yaris cross and it does have a central arm rest, may be a european thing though. It does seem like you have a higher spec vw compared to an entry level yaris cross though.
I have ordered a new Yaris Cross for my wife. I have a T Roc and think VW lost the plot for interior build plastic quality plus they are well behind when it comes to hybrid technology.
One tip - while driving, please provide a view of the dashboard / center console and the view out of the windshield instead of pointing the camera at yourself.
It’s criminal what Toyota are charging these days for a Yaris and even the Yaris Cross. Would love one if cheaper. I avoid Euro cars due to ongoing high costs
I have just finished testing these two for evaluation for fleet use. I agree with your conclusion. But the thing that annoyed me most was a strong lag prior to pickup in the VW when you were trying to enter busy round abouts, entering highways or turning across oncoming traffic from stand still. Got some precious seconds counting.
Lag from the DSG, or the stop start system.? You know you can turn the stop start off, or just lighten your pressure on the brake pedal a touch and the engine will start up , then no delay.
Thank you for the comparison, I like the Yaris Cross more, I think Volkswagen have a boring appearance, as always... Plus, I absolutely want an AWD car! In your opinion, what's the Yaris Cross "problem" out of the town? In country road or highway.... is it a pain or unconfortable?
Good review, mate. Loads of car review channels in the UK and most just churn out the press releases. VAG all the way here. I know most people don't need this sort of car, but a small 4x4 for my wife is ideal - living down a 20% snow covered farm track and needing to be small for car parks, but big enough for the dogs. And random sheep feed. So no 4x4 T Cross? Lame. Toyota it is. Glad to see Toyota starting to up their game again. Might get me out of my Landy if they brought better utility spec 'Cruisers to Europe...
Why doesn’t anyone mention ground clearance? After working in a job with fleet cars Hyundai Toyota Nissan Kia ground clearance so I’m not losing the undercarriage very time I drive into a dodgy car park or an I’ll designed carpatk
i highly suggest a Corolla or CH-R instead of these small ones. mileage is nearly the same but what a difference in ride , space, design and interior. VW is simply a NoGo due to Dieselgate
I sat in both a CHR and corolla before deciding to go with the Yaris cross. Definitely agree with you about the interior design but the CHR made me feel like I was in a cave. The interior is all black and claustrophobic. I’m small so I always pump the seat up to the max to have better view and in the corolla my head just skims the roof and again felt claustrophobic. Space isn’t an issue when you’re 5 ft like me. Sitting behind my driving position is super spacious. It’s not small at all.
Imo there's only two brands to buy. I.e. Toyota and VW. Toyota interior has always been a huge let down (personal opinion). Everything is hollow platicy and quality feels like an after thought. Toyota is reliable indeed but I have had 0 issues in all the VWs I've ever owned. To me the hybrid tech by Toyota is also gimmicky. At the end of the day you have to maintain two technologies and those batteries aren't cheap at all!
My opinion on Toyota: Ugly unaesthetic interior cheap looking shiny plastic in doors and dashboard... even the exterior looks weird... strange design language
The reviewers and younger people don't always get the appeal of these vehicles. It is their ease of access and better driving view for older people for one. That height makes all the difference getting in and out. They are also more stylish in my opinion than the hatchback equivalents. Also the Yaris is way "greener" being almost twice as fuel efficient (and it will be - my wife's 2014 Yaris hybrid gets 68 mpg+). The seat comfort is a worry in the Yaris - is it a downgrade on the 2014 Yaris hatch model which is perfectly comfortable? Do you not have the new Renault Captur in Oz? Comes as petrol, diesel, mild hybrid and PHEV in Europe and is well specced with a much more luxurious interior.
Hi, that is pure confection, it would be the same, I don't know, comparing Zara with H&M. Tough job even for you as a car journalist to tell as the differences, so better don't ask as, amateurs.
I just bought a T-Cross because it looks better - simple as that, life is too short so sometimes we need to go for things that bring more joy than maybe more sense
Even if it’s reliability and it’s gas consumption is higher? And ITS MAINTENANCE?
Agreed! And of course the VW badge ❤
@@JoseFernandez-wu8pj Not everyone is that short on money.
honestly, same here, it just looks...waaaay better. I actually did consider the Yaris Cross as well...but...no
Toyota for me, on reliability alone, long term
I love the Toyota but no centre arm rest even as an option ! Come on Toyota i want one !
After 23 years of Golf IV, which I have loved so much, I am a happy owner of a T-Cross R-Line with 115 HP and a DSG gearbox.
Good on you. That Mk4 can’t have been a maintenance nightmare like all the naysayers predict.
Any issues yet?

Months is not enough...check 5 years...u will see the Toyota wil outlast the VW by years..
Small SUVs are style over substance. Overpriced, poor handling and cheap nasty plastic inside.
I agree but the CH-R and Lexus UX are great cars and are the only small SUV I would buy
T-Cross for us ...

For reliability and fuel efficiency. Yaris Cross is the winner. VW got so many issues and high maintenance cost.
Is the CVT in the Yaris Cross stepped in the hybrid
Why doesn’t anyone mention ground clearance? After working in a job with fleet cars Hyundai Toyota Nissan Kia ground clearance so I’m not losing the undercarriage very time I drive into a dodgy car park or an I’ll designed carpatk
One should just get a Golf or Corolla. Better cars in every way and basically the same price as these thanks to the "SUV" markup.
Yep, good advice.
Gulf and Corolla have less ground clearance
Skoda kamiq would be better choice :)
Very good presentation!
Does't the R-Line VW also have sports suspension apart from bigger wheels? So no surprise it's not very comfortable
Paintwork is very thin on VW's and marks so easily. Happy to have moved to Toyota.

Only german cars,nothing else!!!

Do you not have the new Renault Captur in Oz? Comes as petrol, diesel, mild hybrid and PHEV in Europe and is well specced with a much more luxurious interior.
VW for "premium" feeling.
Toyota for warranty, reliability and running costs.
