If you you are a school run veteran, who needs space for up to six kids as part of your early morning commute, then the Toyota Verso is an excellent choice. It puts reliability and fuel efficiency before style and sporty handling. The 2.0 D-4D version, although not as smooth to drive as petrol variants, returns over 50mpg, while the third row of seats can be easily folded - creating a spacious five-seater with a large boot. Those looking for something smaller than the Verso, should consider the new Toyota Verso S, available from February 2011. - ยานยนต์และพาหนะ
I'm not thumbing down or even criticizing Japanese cars. I own a Japanese car myself and am fully aware of how well-built and reliable they are. That said, Hyundai's and Kia's of late have been declared class-leading by every automotive review agency in the world. We don't have to like them, but the automotive landscape has changed dramatically inthe past few yeras and we'd be foolish and close-minded to ignore the complete reversal made by Kia and Hyundai.
We purchased two....one in 2010 (new) and one in 2014 (2nd hand0. Both still going strong - great car! The 2nd one is EXACTLY the same as the one in this video!
Is the maintenance expensive
@@zoekongo8092 The rear torsion bar (between the back wheels) will rust through after 11-12 years. Happened to both of mine. It's an MOT failure @£500.
Apart from that, just tyres and brakes need replacing.
She is getting better!
Wow that is indeed a comfortable and jewrable mpv.
Rebecca gets me to watch reviews of cars I don't care about and can't get in my country. Fantastic woman.

Has this been shot and/or edited differently? Looks good!
I do understand this is a car buyer review, and I do want to comment on the cars, but it's just impossible to concentrate when you have a presenter/reviewer like Rebecca. What I want to say is Rebecca is just drop dead gorgeous. I love you
Does the Verso share its platform with the Prius V?
Do any of the seats unclip, to remove? Thanks in advance
I don't even like this car. I just watched it coz I love Carbuyer!
I bought this car the other day and so far I like it :)
Excellence all around!!
Why not buy a camel instead?
@@hermanhayes750 Because it's not a 7 seater.
@@arpadrosta8006 Unless you buy the camel XL
@@arpadrosta8006 hhhhhh
oh, i feel better. so '12 model is filled with excitement?
I got the very same car, almost the same color and with no GPS.
Reliable and well built plus I do find it good looking. Taking into account the 2.0 D4D engine's consumption, I find it hard not to like the car. Missing some extra cavities where to store stuff Thou.
The Smax was my fav but got this one just because of the real flat trunk and also has a bigger engine over the 1.6 Citroen C4, very useful when the card is fully loaded. Not the best in any specific but overall a very well done mvp.
Wow, have you been working on your tan Rebecca? Looking great. :P
I will never grow tired of looking at her and listening to her speak.
Please TH-cam. Put longer crap adverts on
What about an automatic gearbox in this car?
why opting for the sunroof will affect the middle seat headroom?
I'm guessing because the ceiling of the car is lower to accommodate the sliding sunroof, as in it slides inside the actual roof
Rebecca has gotten much better at these reviews nowadays - wonder if Matt's been giving her lessons?
What is this car? AT, MMT, CVT ?
Do you know what a percentile figure is? A Percentile is the value of a variable below which a certain percent of observations fall. For example, the 30th percentile is the value (or score) below which 30 percent of the observations may be found. It therefore must account for every variable (in this case car manufacturers). Contrary to your assertion, I compared German car's reliability to that of every other manufacturer in the world, of which at least 60% recorded superior reliability.
I love this car, how much is the car
I just love it❤
I especially like the fact that you can turn the Verso into a van, with all the seats folded down creating a completely flat loading bay. Plus the rear seats are so spacious, it's great !
And yeah, Rebecca is hot !
Plenty of storage, hidden storage space on 2de row, storage box under seat. top dashbox is cooled when ac is on.
I know a plenty of people who find even LFA boring, so I don't think it's the lineup that is the problem.
Excellent. The car too.
Yes. Yes, it is..
Where is Matt?
Does the panoramic roof open?
I've got a toyota verso, and no, it does not open
Thankyou jarhdon
they're not all bad though. Recently some of their cars fair better than western counter parts. Look at the new Hyundai i20 for example
Sorry to break your illusion, but Kia ceed [for example] is a lot of car, for not a lot of money. Great engines, a lot of space and very decent interior quality [in better options package even better than the Megane]. I had an almost same opinion as you until a few months ago, untill my mate bought one. And it's rather brilliant for that money.
The Verso is more versatile than the Nissan Versa, reminds me of the Mazda 5 in the US
This model's production started in 2009.
My only issue is the leg room
What's with the old time western music in the background?
good one
I've heard that Kia does not hold up when it comes to rust. But I've only heard good about the relaunch of Hyundai
Why do people call car seats chairs??
If there was aver an organization that would hate Korean cars, it is Top Gear. They bought their Cee'd b/c they thought it would be a laughably crappy vehicle. Clarkson himself even said that "we're genuinely impressed with the Cee-apostraphe-D b/c it's just a brilliant little car." Sebastian Vettel even said that "it's a good car" after Jeremy asked him what he thought of it (expecting him to say something funny about how slow it is compared to his Red Bull F1 car). Korean cars are now good.
Damn! I have a crush on Rebbeca...
i'm taking my driving licens in that car
I like the new verso
The neck of her jumper is loose like sleeve of wizard
I like the music lol
Agreed! :)
Nice car
I just bought a used one mainly because I hope for a reliable car that shall not see a garage all the time. I miss some gimmicks other brands offer such as a start button or a least snap key like VW so you you won't scratch your phone in your pocket. a lumbar support in the seats would also have been nice. but OK, it's a Toyota after all. You buy it for reliability and not for luxury and design.
Looks like a Toyota Prius Plus (V)
.
wat bout the engine?
1.8 gas and 2.2 diesel
Just wondering why there's a lotion in the glovebox? hmmm...
the large doors make the verso look like a hatchback.. weird for me
Okay so if you buy a base model, the front passengers get electric windows, bit the rear passengers don't? lol
good engine 2.2 177 hp (model) review
Becca! :)
I had a chance to drive this car for a few days and I have to say the steering is so light there is no feel of the road therefore the steering wheel feels more like a video game controller than anything, and the 3rd row seats can only be used by children if there is anyone in the middle row. Also my mother got a headache sitting in the back because of the car jiggling about on more uneven roads. Styling wise the dash seems to be deliberately designed to put you to sleep.
Don't like the Verso, but i put a Like for Rebecca!
May I ask when those friends owned those Hyundai's? I have a feeling that they owned them a while ago (back when they were cheap and admittedly poor quality). Do you know anyone who owns a 2011 Hyundai? As for my figures, I used Consumer Reports and compared reliability figures of EVERY car manufacturer (how else do you get a percentile figure?). Since you haven't offered a single statistic, your argument has no merit and I am therefore the more educated of us two.
Two door sports car with small space and seats for passengers is what everyone does not believe this car is. It's much safer to transport a bike inside, could be it's not safe for passengers, but passengers aren't comfortable with small spaces or front seats sliding back too far. Navigation probably is not updated after some time.
You're missing the point: Toyota made a name for itself by making boring (reliable) cars for boring (sensible) people. The Supra offered all the boring characteristics which everyone wants in a car as well as the sporting nature we petrolheads crave. Toyota is at it again with the GT-86 and a rumored Supra replacement. That said, Hyundai has already done that with the Genesis Coupe R-Spec. Where else can you get a well-built 350 hp 4-seat coupe for very reasonable money?
"Yanks love those Korean sheds, for reasons i will never understand." The reason you don't understand is b/c you are blindly ignorant and can't accept changing times. People buy those "Korean sheds" b/c they read dozens of reviews which proclaim them best-in class, with superior fuel economy, interior quality, reliability, powertrain warranties and pricing. Americans love them b/c they are quite simply high-quality and extremely good value vehicles.
She wanted to Get Out that Rain Quick Boy lmao
I’ve never owned a car 🚗
I will always watch a car review
With Rebecca in though 😎
And how often are those seven seats going to be filled let alone four of them?I dont see the point of a vehicle of this size when everyone is whining about oil shortage and fuel prices keep going up.
NO MENTION OF BLANDESS, or style design, well at least is safe
thats because others comment at the same time you do... :P
worst reply ever.. this was a pre-2000 some models of sonata with automatic transmission issue. Easy fix - take the keys out. (use brakes, put it in neutral... look at your videos again, that guy doesn't even touch the brakes)
I've been driving korean cars for a long time, and I had far less issues than with my german ones.
Korean cars are not good, in fact, they are starting to be better than german ones. - and this was a VW employee quote, and the owner of BMW from my town quote...
It's an ok car.
Becky is getting more beautiful on each video ... but where were you running off to at the end of video 4:04 ? :)
Hey guys! Let's talk about how hot Rebecca is! That's a good way to pass the time, as opposed to, y'know, watching the video.
you realize that we watch your videos because of you not because of the boring cars you review?
For crying out loud!
There are SO DAMN MANY cars which people would really like to see like Merc GLK, BMW X6, new Audi A4, mazda CX-5, tons of Lexuses, tons of frenches (DS5! 4008!), but you'r doing what?! Exactly! A freaking Toyota Verso! Great job.
He's in Beijing :)
I doubt grandma and grandpa watch carbuyer on TH-cam so that makes the review completely pointless haha
You simply don't get it: "let the A to B commuting people buy terrible Hyundai's." That statement is blatantly false and close-minded, coming from someone with an inability to accept changing times. Hyundai and Kia are doing the same trick that the Japanese did: retain a customer base with dependable cars while offering new types of cars to draw in new buyers. That's why they offer sensible hatchbacks, sedans and SUV's as well as class-leading performance-oriented coupes and luxury cars.
Why the hell they put speedometer in the middle ... its so annoying :(
Actually, German cars some of the least reliable cars on the planet. According to Consumer Reports, Audi, Mercedes and Volkswagen are in the 30th percentile for reliability while BMW is in the 40th percentile. The worst-handling Mustang is the base V6 model, which pulled 0.96 lateral G when MotorTrend tested it last year. To put that in perspective, that is the same lateral acceleration as a Porsche Carrera. Kia's and Hyundai's are now class-leading and put European cars to shame.
I realize that Brit's have a tendency to latch onto stereotypes and ignore changing landscapes, but you simply can't do that in the car world. Cars are replaced every 6-8 years and are often refreshed after just 3-4 years. The Kia and Hyudai of 2004 has absolutely no relation to the brands we have today. It is close-minded, foolish and immature to ignore the monumental improvements made by Korean manufacturers. You simply will not be taken seriously by any educated petrolheads.
And again you think you know me because of a comment on a youtube video. You're calling me a fanboy because i dislike certain cars? Wow, thats awesome, how'd you mange to get to that? If anyones the fanboy here its you. I've known quite a few people who have owned Hyundai's, told me nothing but bad things about them. "
[Insert highly original 'Rebecca is attractive' comment here]
An Vauxhall Meriva looks so better...
good review, but I clicked only to watch Rebecca
i imagine they pick presenters depending on target audience of the vehicle, not being sexist in any way but the cars she reviews are definitely what you see woman driving more often than not
and Rebecca
I like British accent
The English are all left-handed????
Rebecca IS attractive. :)
I love u!!!
Rebecca finally you've got some proper shoes hey. Last word of advice stop doing your diet please.
You don't have to like Korean cars, but you'll be dealing with a hell of a lot of people like myself in the future if you keep pretending they are shit. To each his own, but intelligent people would prefer to spend less money on a faster, more economical, more reliable, more practical, cheaper to run and better looking car with superior interior quality and a class-leading warranty. Since Korean cars tick all of those boxes, that's what intelligent people will do.
So i guess less reviews by Mat and more by HER..... :-[
C4 picasso looks better too
No MAT, no Watch :(
oh yea almost forgot the "Korean" cars i30 and i40
