Why are your prices always wrong a toyota carolla 2023 will cost you $50,000 to $54,000 in australia which is absolutly rediculous! you could buy a Ford Fiesta 2023 for that price.
@@silverpro8356 The prices of all these cars are correct. The Corolla SX Hybrid Hatch costs $38,257 drive away. That’s with the colour added into the price as well. Where are you located? All the prices are correct.
I bought a Toyota Hybrid Hatch Sport in March and I am very happy with this car, the first new vehicle I have ever purchased. The fuel economy exceeded my expectations and the driver assist features are beneficial. I have a small cleaning business and I have managed to fit a cleaning chemical bucket, a bag for my cleaning rags, a mop with a telescopic handle and a vacuum cleaner all in the boot. It is a tight squeeze, but it all fits!! The only thing I was disappointed with was the strip of exterior metal above the doors on the outside is VERY thin. I discovered this when I waxed the roof and unbeknownst to me, I dented this strip of exterior metal several times as I leaned on it to polish the roof! This cost me $770.00 to have repaired by a paintless dent repairer. I always polished my previous cars in this way and it has never happened before. I would like to warn everyone about this fault with the 2023 Toyota Corolla.
I've been watching your reviews for a while now and you constantly talk about how impressed you are after driving a Toyota car. I like the new corolla no doubt unfortunately with the space offered in the rear and boot space I'm leaning towards the sedan over the hatch. But that car is one sexy looking mechine. Excellent work guys.
I drove one as a loan car and apart from the CVT, it was genuinely good and the CVT wasn't terrible, I just prefer normal autos. Excellent review guys😊😊😊
The convenience pack option makes the plastic steerng wheel in ascent sports a hard choice. SX shall be the pick but still it is too much over priced at AUD 40K+ drive away.
Picking up my 23 sx hybrid hatch next month (arrived in Aus a couple of days ago) first Toyota, coming from a 2013 i30 manual. This video has me even more pumped, I wanted something practical for a single woman in her 30s thats also a bit fun to drive. I test drove a 2022 ZR. I'd never driven a hybrid or a car with CVT and these were the two things that people complain about, being annoying or too slow. I put my foot down and in that moment, I was sold on buying a Corolla. Far quicker than my little old i30 (which has been a brilliant car but it's time to rehome it) I've seen alot of complaints about road noise being an issue (hoping a full sound deading treatment will rectify some of that) upgrade the headunit and speakers, ceramic tint (I'm going to be living in the tropics) and she'll be sweet. Any recommendations on tyres that would be better than the crap you said is on there? So when mine need replacing I'll buy something a bit better.
reason for the powerful output: the eCvt is not cvt at all. the Toyota ecvt uses a computer to control the planetary gears to either send power directly to the wheels or save the energy to the battery when breaking. There is no chain or belt like a cvt, and because of the simplicity and the straight forwardness of the electric motor and ecvt drive train, the driving experience of a ecvt is like an electric vehicle. ECVT is as smooth as a cvt but the torque the motor generates is instant, so the experience is a lot better than belt driven cvt. Actually, there's not even a gearbox/shifter in the traditional sense, but it's hard for people to understand all the technical details, so they just call it something people may easily understand. One problem of ecvt is it cannot tow, check owners manual, don't tow heavier than the limit. My RAV4 does the front wheel spin as well, unfortunately it's because the battery is located under the back seat, so it's back heavy. changing the tyres may help but if it's me I'd stick with factory tyres until they needed to be replaced.
"B" mode shouldn't be used except and only for when engine braking is needed on steep downhills. It will keep the petrol engine on much more than necessary, and stop the Hybrid system from correctly jumping back and forth from EV mode and petrol engine.
I think you’re thinking of Toyota connected services. It’s a subscription service; free for the first year then $10-12 per month after that. You don’t need it for ‘normal’ infotainment system functions and navigation but it enables various extra functions, live traffic info, wifi updates, etc. Pretty crappy that you have to pay ongoing fees for it but you can back it in more manufacturers will introduce subscription based services. BMW now make you pay a subscription fee to heat the seats!
It looks ok, the interior looks a bit cheap, the price is right up there, the rear seats and boot are hopeless though. The Hybrid drivetrain is stand out. I would be interested if they offered the wagon version. The sedan is for pensioners... so it's not for me.
i easily do 0-100 in sub 9 secs in my 2019 Corolla 1.8L hybrid that came with 18" alloys. Idk why you are trying to launch it like a supercar on a damp raod. Go easy on the throttle and then floor it.
How is driving a hybrid saving the planet when the planet is strip-mined in order to produce the battery? And, how does the 1,000+ pound battery save the planet when it’s discarded?
Well Corollas aren’t built to wow anyone (except the GR Corolla). More about functionality from what I see and for a daily driver, it would be good enough, plus the hybrid versions offer astonishing fuel economy. So as boring as it may appear, it still has many strengths.
@@THEAC83 I should have explained what I meant better, sorry. I meant functionality as in everything is easy to use. But yes, space is lacking and you’re better off with other vehicles if you want space from a hatchback. But for those who already have a larger car, like an SUV or something, this will be enough. It’s really up to what you use it for. No car will work for every single person because every car has its own pros and cons.

I am a owner of rs3 and I don’t know why I am watching this review. I think I got addicted to the sauce. :)
Honestly I'd love the RS3 as my weekend car and just have something like the Corolla Cross as my daily. Best of both worlds!
You just want everyone to know you have an RS3. You’re above Corollas. Don’t watch this.

The turn signals are LED in a reflector housing.
It's a good car, a very good car. Not overly cheap, but it will do a great job . Urban areas are where it will shine .
Turn signals are LED, you can see how they blink instantly.

When you realise in the UK there is a more powerful 2.0 hybrid version with nearly 150kw.
If you want that in Australia it's in the Corolla Cross.
They need to bring the wagon version to Australia

Don’t upgrade the head unit, it’s great, got wireless Apple CarPlay, has been seemless experience for me

Great review gents! How do you rate this as a package compared to a Subaru Impreza? Cheers 😊
I can't stand the base model seats. The premium interior gets it right but costs too much.
What car reviewer does a 0-100 test with a passenger in the car?
Very impressed car to be honest
Do you have to pay monthly to use the touchscreen?
No

Wait till you hear about the wait times on this one...
Why launch? No one launches the corolla
It looks ok, the interior looks a bit cheap, the price is right up there, the rear seats and boot are hopeless though. The Hybrid drivetrain is stand out. I would be interested if they offered the wagon version. The sedan is for pensioners... so it's not for me.
The engine lost Toyota Hybrid badge, woooh, good quality control.
It's crazy expensive here in Germany
what is the claimed range when the tank is full? Why do car reviewers spend time on irrelevant aesthetics.
The rearvieuw camera is soooo bad. It even has''t the moving lines on it.
Much like the Yaris GR. Another model not available in the United States. Come on Toyota

No aircon for the rear seats unlike all previous models😢
So with a Toyota you are basically paying for the reliable if underpowered,expensive engine. The rest of it is a bit underwhelming
That big tshirt and skinny leg pants looks strange.!
Why the hell so they not make a Manual corolla. Alwaus catering to the simps
🇯🇵 industry is so done

Exactly what most people are looking for in a car. Inoffensive, quiet, good on fuel, reliable.
