      Yes, for me too, but I managed to cut a deal with the dealer since it is a "drive test" car. It also has a 2500 euro deduction for being a hybrid.

We don't expect the Yaris to be a proper offroader, and it is a new car and you might be affraid to scratch it, but why label the video "off road" then?

    • @CatalinColniceanu
      @CatalinColniceanu  2 ปีที่แล้ว +6

      Hi, Sergiusz! Thank you! The panoramic roof is worth all the money. I haven't driven a normal model, without the panoramic roof so I cannot comment on the differences. But, from what I saw so far in other people's reviews, they all complain about the noise in the cabin at high speeds. It is a bit noisier than my VW Polo gen 6, but mainly due to the fact that the noise comes from the rear wheels - the luggage compartment has only a cloth cover, unlike other cars that have a hard plastic cover intended to contain the noise inside the luggage compartment. Though the cloth cover it's more logical as it allows you to place larger luggage and besides - it can be easily folded. Also, they complain about the thermal engine starting at high revs. For those that are not accustomed to the hybrid system, it is pretty noisy, but you get used to it over time. I drove it at 180km/h last week, in my opinion, the sound in the cabin was OK, once the thermal engine settled, I couldn't hear it anymore. Just the sounds coming from the wheels, but of course, it all depends also on the tires you have. Pretty stable at those speeds, keeping in mind that it's a car with a high wheelbase. Overall I say it's worth the money, especially with all the safety systems on it and all the little extras. The 4*4 version should make a difference for those living in problematic areas with frequent rains or snow.

      @@CatalinColniceanu Thank you very much for your answer. I ordered 4x2 version because of the larger boot, and I drive mainly in the city. However, I will probably update my order by adding the panoramic roof which looks great and adds light in the cabin. My impressions on the test drive were positive. There wasn't much noise up to 120 km/h, more at 140 km/h, but that wasn't as dramatic as some vloggers describe. Toyota salesman in my town also informed me that Yaris Cross produced in 2022 will have improved soundproofing - better seals in the rear doors.

      Salut, Ionut! Atat cat am apucat sa o scot pe drumurile forestiere (cca 50 km), mi se pare destul de bine inchegata. Nu imi place in schimb cum suna usile la inchidere, este sunetul acela de tabla subtire si am observat ca la volum mare al muzicii, din afara masinii se aud trepidatiile. Dupa cum spunea cineva in comenturi, inteleg ca deja se ia in calcul o insonorizare in zona aceea. Dar per total masina sta foarte bine. Zilele trecute am facut Transalpina si pe o portiune mica am luat niste gropi zdravene. Dar a trecut cu brio prin ele. Plus ca 4*4 a intrat destul de des pe o portiune buna de drum, unde se depusese zapada si practic nu am simtit nici o abatere de la trasa. Sunetul de rulare la viteze mari (de autostrada) a rotilor spate a disparut cand am avut portbagajul plin, ceea ce ma face sa am certitudinea ca un capac de plastic ar fi izolat mai bine decat panza aceea din spate. Per total eu sunt super multumit de alegere si abia astept weekendul sa o duc din nou la zapada. :)

    Where is the off road part? You never drove off road in this video. Non tarmac is not "offroad". The roads where very level, any sedan could have done the same, possibly with less bumps and more comfortable. Hell, even a lowered sports car would have faired pretty well on these dirt roads. Not even a tiny stone to be found.

I really don't like the media screen, it's junky, too old in appearance, and hard to press/touch while driving. The rear camera it's a low-resolution one. The menu it's not that intuitive (I am saying this coming from a VW Polo 2017 media screen). Might be improved with updates in time, but I still couldn't figure out some options I have. But overall it does its intended job and you don't have to wait too long for the car to arrive (as it's the case with other brands), or even to be delivered with analog displays and then refitted when available...

La drum intins, intre localitati poate sa coboare si mai jos, avem colegi pe grup[ul dedicat care au scos si 2.8. Pe autostrada consuma mai mult daca sta peste 110. Un drum Rm. Valcea - Bucuresti - Isaccea a fost facut cu 6.5 litri media, fara a avea grija la talpi si cu autostrada si pe la 160km/h. Eu zic ca e foarte bun consumul, fata de ce am condus pana cum.

      @@mgz9999 I upgraded from 2wd to AWD after the first drive of the AWD. The price difference it's not so high and for me it makes sense. If you're not living in an area where snow or heavy rains are the norm, or if you are not taking it off roads often, then it's not worth the upgrade. It's a correct deal keeping in mind all the extras it has, both security and comfort-wise. The trunk of the AWD version is smaller, indeed, for me is no problem. But it should help the cloth cover that comes with the car, which allows you to place larger luggage in a vertical position. Beneath the floor of the trunk, there is also a plastic support which I believe can be removed (I'll look into it within the next few days), thus making it larger on a vertical scale. For me made sense to upgrade to this version since my girlfriend works for the company that owns the dealership and cut a pretty good deal, a VAT deduction, the hybrid discount from the state, and the drive-test car discount.

      Ne cunoastem de ne vorbim la modul asta? Ti-a fugit spatele probabil pendtru ca nu ai gumele potrivite temperaturii de afara. Si depinde si ce asteptari ai de la o masina cu garda la sol inalta. Motorul de pe puntea spate isi face treaba pentru care a fost montat acolo, am testat-o zilele acestea, atat pe asfalt ud, unde sincer nu am simtit nevoia de 4*4, cat si pe gheata, zapada si noroi. In dreapta, langa cotiera ai un buton mare pe care daca apesi, poti seta masina in modurile "Snow" si "Trail". Sunt diferente majore fata de modul normal de condus. Din nou, pentru extraurban, ai modul "Power" acolo unde ai nevoie de cuplu sporit. Sa nu uitam totusi ca modelul asta nu poate fi comparat cu un Duster, dotat mult inferior si destinat unei alte piete... Asteptam si Dusterul Hybrid, pana atunci comparam mere cu pere. Desi sunt tot fructe, au niste diferente intre ele. ;)
