    Perfect tag - Costco of Cars. It makes perfect sense. The plane flying overhead, the cooling towers in the background and in your mirror, the cinematography is genius. I love it man.

    I have a 2024 LE Hybrid, and on your comment that it isn't a luxury vehicle....you are absolutely correct. But, compared to everything else out there today, at the price point (25,413 for me) this thing is very high quality and it rides great, drives great, and is relatively quiet in my opinion. It's built in Japan and there is just a difference in quality. We have a 2024 Camry XLE hybrid, made in Kentucky, and it is half the quality of the Corolla hybrid. Dash rattles, and the wind noise, both from the glass and underneath the vehicle, at 36,000 dollars, is no good. I cannot think of anything else from any other manufacturer today that can compare to the Corolla hybrid. You did a nice job of summing this little gem up.

    Nothing it does great besides 50 mpg, reliability, low cost, and high saftey? Im an auto enthusiast & auto technician and these cars are great, perfect economical daily to save gas for your weekend fun cars! Buying one to pair with my 350Z & 8.1L Silverado 👍

    I'm from South East Asia, but i weirdly find a charms in American way of thinking and their views of value with their fully featured "base spec" cars as a mere appliance vehicle (compared to SEA market corolla, yours can be considered as fully specced in here 😂)
    Thank you for sharing your experience with your corolla and hopefully you will make another update with your car!

      Yeah, It’s crazy how loaded these are but most cars are here. This is the first year you can’t buy any car with manual windows now that they discontinued the Chevy spark. But we’re in them for like 10hours a week, probably explains why they are so nice!

    One of the better reviews I've seen of this car (and I've watched about 100 since I just wrapped up my process of buying one). Unique format, interesting points, nice video examples. The like and subscribe stuff is a little annoying but I get it since you're trying to grow the channel. Appreciate that you didn't waste time commenting on the exterior appearance since that's obviously not what this car is about. I would love to see updates on your Corolla experiences in the future

      Thanks for your kind feedback, don’t get me wrong I’m not a fan of the like and subscribe stuff but unfortunately that’s what TH-cam wants! I made another video about the things I hate, wish I knew that going into it, if I had to buy it again I think I would of added the convenience package!

    Great point about the trunk... People forget that sedans often have more trunk floor space than SUVs or hatchbacks.
    SUV/hatchback advantage is only vertical and in the opening size.

  • @garthera7819

    Great to see an LE reviewed, thank you. I'm guessing this is the follow-up to the things you hate video. That was also great. I like your review style, refreshing change from POV's, no talking with hand taps on things, and other gimmicky styles.
    I drive a current gen Kia Soul, previous car was a 2016 Corolla Eco (top fuel economy before the hybrid) that I loved, except for the road noise, wind noise, and lackluster (to say the least) handling.
    One thing that confuses me: you mentioned the safety features, but seeing that you have plastic wheel covers it means you don't have Blind Spot monitoring, right? To me this is the prize safety feature (maybe because I'm old and 'slipping' a bit). Where I live if you accidentally cut somebody off you could easily get shot. 😬

    • @Autounboxing
      @Autounboxing  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Never owned a car with blind spots monitoring, I really wish a vehicle with the convince package was available when I was buying this! But I was waiting 6 months and got a little impatient 😂 My view with the safety features is there’s no car under 25k that has as much active daft features as this one!

    I got a 2023 hybrid awd corolla. My major issue with it is the pedestrian warning sound that can be extremely borhersome inside the car while driving with low speed. It is a higher pitched metallic sound that I can't get used to. It is there everytime you drive under 25mph which pretty much all the time in city traffic or low speed areas where I work and live. Other than that the car is fine but that sound ruins the driving experience for me.

    Unrelated to the review of the car, but please don't ride with skis right behind the driver seat like that because if you get rear ended you could get impaled. I used to work in a hospital and saw impalements so often that I spot the hazards everywhere now.
