Did you manage to play music via your phone just by plugging in the USB and pressing the USB icon on the display? Seems like it doesn’t work so I’m not sure what the USB icon is for on the screen..
Hmm we only streamed music via Bluetooth when we had the car, sorry
the front of this car is really beautiful
It's far better looking than the previous one too
Is it soft torch material at the window Bay Area?
Hmm we honestly cannot recall sorry. But we do remember there are very few touch points with hard-feeling plastics.
Is the rear passenger space able to fit a child seat and 2 adults of abt 1.7m?
Quite easily yes
Hey there! May I ask you some questions about the new Toyota altis elegance 1.6?
Is there navigation system?
Is there sport mode?
Nope there isn't any GPS nor sport mode in the Elegance model
Choo Zhi Yong You own the own new altis ?
@@ethanng3043 yeah I do
@@choozhiyong1602 same .
@@choozhiyong1602 any usb ports or 12v charger at the place where the wireless charging was supposed to be? (beneath the AC controls)
I got the 1.8
Nice - hybrid FTW!
how much is it to replace the hybrid's battery pack?
Hmm....we'll ask Toyota Singapore!
CarBuyer.Com.Sg i hope you give us an update when you have info already, thanks!
any usb ports /12v charger
in the front beneath the aircon?
The infotainment system has a USB port, but beneath the AC area it doesn't look like it does. Any Altis owners want to chime in?

@@CarBuyerComSg Yeah, since the SG version does not come with wireless charging there, its quite necessary for charging the phone, instead of dangling a wire from the info system
@@CarBuyerComSg alright just checked it out at the showroom. No usb/12v in the front tray, but can install the wireless charging pad for an added $
Thanks for sharing the info and taking the effort to check!
Watching this in Aug 2022 and a Jan 2021 preowned hybrid is selling at @$121k...a new one is @$193..
We knew COEs would be high but not THIS high....
@@CarBuyerComSg
That selling price today (2022) is somewhat the same price when it was NEW in 2021..and that is the cheapest whereas others from that same year are asking @$140k+
How is the fuel consumption of the 1.6 gasoline?
It's decent - if you don't have a heavy foot you should be able to do 6.5L/100km or better easily
CarBuyer.Com.Sg thanks for the feedback!
Do u know What is the altis PCD for the wheel?
Wow that's very specific knowledge which we don't have, unfortunately. You could try an Owner's Forum online!
The bevel on the screen is so ugly. Can we change it to a Pioneer or Kenwood with Apple Carplay?
The screen looks quite solidly set into the dashboard, as you pointed out the bevel is huge, so changing it for another system would be quite tricky we think
@@CarBuyerComSg Isn't it a standard 2 Din size?
It's the same old engine as the two previous generations. That's very disappointing!
Toyota tends to have a 'if it ain't broke...' sort of approach to things, and sometimes for reasons that aren't easy to see at first. We're all for new engines and latest tech too, but one expert pointed out to us before that some of the benefits aren't so obvious: Existing engines could possibly (but not definitely) mean less expensive servicing and repairs, since the engines are thoroughly familiar to local techs/mechanics.
@@CarBuyerComSg Thank you for your perspective. Indeed, viewed from this angle, it is a very strong argument to retain the same engine.
Its Toyota all about reliability and quality so if that old engine still works fine all thie years just made some minor adjustments and it be better.
The poor fuel economy is disappointing for a new car at this age.
It's actually OK, not super, but certainly on par with rivals
