- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 25 พ.ย. 2022
- MotoMan heads back into the world of @toyotausa Corolla, this time, a Hybrid with All Wheel Drive. Yes, there are some slight tweaks to the 134 HP 4 cylinder but he learns the addition of an electric motor in the rear both transforms this @TOYOTAglobal Corolla Hybrid while simultaneously remaining very much the same.

I think the Corolla is a superb vehicle. It feels tight, it rides quite well, it's reasonably quiet and it just flat out works. The hybrid makes it even better.
Have you ever been driving other brand cars in your life? 😆 🤣 😂
@@kingkong2598 I would rather drive a Corolla than a McLaren or a Bugatti.
@@braetonwilson4296 facts
Drive a German car and then you know what tight and solid feels like not too mention how a car is supposed to handle. I highly doubt that this 'superb vehicle' is on anyone's wish list or the vehicle they aspire too.
@@nobodyyouknow4319 Drive a German vehicle and watch it break down every week? No thanks!
I purchased a 2022 Corolla Hybrid and I am regularly getting 60+ mpg. Changes were made to the motor on the 2023 to give it slightly more power at the cost of mpg. Some say this may have been done so the Prius would have the higher mpg number. Not sure why but I'm glad I got the 2022. Nevertheless the Corolla is an excellent vehicle and I'd highly recommend it to anyone looking for an efficient vehicle that is a practical everyday driver.
Same here..I got the 2022 corolla hybrid also...not sure why they reduced mpg...the reason people purchased this vehicle is because of mpg...not horsepower...and why did they eliminate the keyless ignition...and also the 7 in h multimedia display dash??.....so glad I got a 2022
Does the 2023 awd still turn off after 45 mph ?
@@guyz7777 lots of manufacturers are eliminating keyless everything as they use tons of currently hard to get chips.
I got 21 Corolla hybrid sedan still getting good 60+ mpg only thing potholes I gotta watch as suspension softer than my last car (Subaru Impreza) alignment
@@Xander1Sheridan keys have proved to work lol
Was strongly considering this as a Basic A to B commuter until Toyota unveiled the new Prius. Maybe that's flavor B 🤔
I was thinking the same thing. But with near 200hp and 4 seconds faster to 60, the new Prius is the clear winner for me. Unless the Prius got way more expensive or the Corolla gets the new hybrid system I’m not sure why would pick the Corolla hybrid over the Prius.
@@slscamg Prius all the way for me! Maybe a prime....
@@slscamg the Prius will be more expensive. Rumors are the top of the line plug in Prius will top $40k, and it might start a little higher than the new Corolla too.
@@slscamg Prius will be much more expensive. With dealer markup, fees, and taxes, expect to pay over 50k for a 2023 Prius.
For the folks complaining about how there aren't any affordable cars left: quit looking at full size pickup trucks and SUVs, *this* is your answer.
You don't need an expensive, inefficient, and oversized vehicle for the kids you *might* have. By the time they're too big to fit in the Corolla comfortably that SUV or full cab truck will be 12-16 years old and you're probably looking to replace it anyway. And with the money you save on the purchase and the fuel, you can pick up a used pickup truck for the handful of times a year you tow or hunt or need to haul mulch or impress the bros.
^^Agreed.
Well stated.
The CVT on the hybrid has no resemblance to the CVT on the gas only Corolla. Completely different. The braking system is completely different also.
Toyota is killing it with the efficient vehicles this is like the perfect every day car really cannot get better than Toyota products Toyota knows exactly how to deliver the goods
Wish they bring the Rola wagon to the U.S...
There’s really nothing to add here that you didn’t already cover in this episode. It’s a Corolla. It will get great gas mileage, last forever, and you can eventually give it to your kids and they can then give it to their grandkids (if there are still gas stations in 20 years). All that said, if I was looking at a daily that gets insane gas mileage, I’d also go for the next generation Prius over this version of Corolla.
Eager to hear the pricing of the new Prius. Driving it next week.
This Corolla hybrid has an e-CVT which isn't really a CVT at all. As for the gasoline Corolla, it has a CVT with a physical first gear which gives it great off the line acceleration.
Pretty much shut down the review after hearing he didn't know the difference.
@@bryanmills2295 Yes I'm also disappointed that a professional reviewer doesn't know the difference.
Either the AWD Corolla, or the new Prius AWD, will be my next car.
I didn’t even know this car exist I have a Gen3 raptor I’d love to have one of these to drive everyday and run errands save gas and use my truck for fun living in Michigan for the snow the awd would be cool this seems like a cool car
I'd buy this as daily driver after my 2006 Prius dies. The price is right for sure!
The trick is that the Prius won’t die for another 10 years…
@@89itis Car itself would outlast me but catalytic converter thieves will likely cause me to junk it.
It won't die 😂
$25,000 is what we would pay for a Camry in past years
Now, a fully loaded new Camry is 45k.
Does anybody know if they're going to be launching a hybrid awd hatchback?
23k plus market adjustment in socal they add 4k plus alarm system 3m paint protection . Tax and license We're seting at 30k
Dear Toyota,
If you haven’t heard, there are parts of the country that, in mid November, can allow you to showoff what your AWD can do.
Signed, Minnesota.
Amazing prices you're quoting. Friend just bought a gas corolla. $31k plus trade in. So the hybrid is $7k cheaper? That's awesome. I would have thought paying for 2 power systems and that Chinese battery would make it more expensive not cheaper.
Also, the silver paint with the hubcaps completely under mind this car this car looks 100 better and it’s upgraded trims.
great review!! this is the same model Im wanting to buy!
So would you prefer an all grey or black interior as with the majority of under $30k cars? But I'll take a 2023 Prius anyways
Lots of potential with that AWD system. Probably wouldn’t take much to amp up that rear motor to make it carve up the turns
a bass capacitor
Check out the toyota TS050 LMP1 racer. Has the lap record at lemans and has a turbo v6 with electric motors up front
I saw they were offering this car with an interior called almond which was a two tone tan color. However, I have yet been able to find the FWD LE model for less than $29k
The problem is the awd system isn't particularly good at what youll likely need it for: driving in the snow.
The way the power gets delivered (or doesnt) to rear wheels or slipping wheels is almost useless.
Its a shame because an AWD Hybrid corolla is such a friggin great idea.
Yea, hybrid awd makes this a serious option even compared to the Camry if you’d want to save nearly $10k
CVT..................... no thanks.
Don't they make an SE version, which would give you a little more buttoned-down ride? I thought they also had some sort of infrared version that adds a little of the color you wanted in the interior? I suspect this car is everything many people need combined with Toyota reliability, a great price point, and superb mileage. They'll probably sell a ton.
Yep you're right. Surprised he didn't mention that.
Don’t buy awd! I see people in the south driving awd vehicles, not needed. Awd is $, heavy, less mpg, expensive to repair. Fwd is the way to go 90% of the time. Even if your in the snow ❄️ belt (I’m sorry for you) fwd and 2 snow tires are the way to go, otherwise you would need 4. Also, if you drive a bev, fwd is better at regen.
Don’t let them sell you on this awd crap!
Great job Toyota!!
25K is probably a lot less than the dealer mark-up On a GR.
Spot on concerning color choices and suspension tuning. Is a CVT you must can you at least hide the whining droning engine? 🤦🏻
I don’t think anyone outside of NY knows what a “goombah” is 😂
If they made one that was just a tad bit more unlike every other corolla you see on the road, it would be a hybrid I'd consider. Just add some stylish alloy wheels, and add some color inside. If it stayed under say 28k I would say it would be a hit
Any car that doesn’t use frameless doors is already much better than tesla
Technically all cars come with a car key in the key fob.
Awd takes away fuel economy
not surprised it's so cheap, i mean, the interior is Tesla cheap... i'm running a '15 Auris Euro hybrid, best mpg is 70.42, achieved 3 times at the pump. what would make me change it, would be a 2.0 hybrid hatch with the e-four awd that can shift from fw bias to a rw bias or 50/50 split.
i mean, if i want fuel economy, i can always get the 1.8 hybrid. if they'll make a sportier version, then go all in.
MADE IN JAPAN CASE CLOSED IN FAVOR OF THE CONSUMER
Shame that "rental car" summed it up. Sound like a compelling package.
The only thing separating me from something like this is just how bland and squishy it drives. I Have yet to try a hybrid Corolla, but I've driven a manual gas and a CVT gas one and...jeez even the manual one felt like a sponge. I know it's not supposed to be a sporty compact; it's target market wouldn't want that anyway. But as you've mentionned, a warmed up XRS one with near 200hp, steering that had a measurable amount of communication, and suspension that's eager to optimise the contact patch of the tire would go a long way. Have this available in the hatch? Or introduce a wagon for NA? (ok ok I'll stop)
Everything else about this car is pretty great. But I do really despise CVTs. Kia mates their system to a 6-speed DCT and really changes the experience. I know we're looking at two extremes on the spectrum of long-term durability, but I'm definitely tempted by the Niro, especially in PHEV form.
the hybrid doesn't even have a traditional "CVT". its toyota's planetary gearset, so think electric motors linked to gears. Its super durable - look at all the old priuses running around.
I like Toyota's, but they're beginning to ask for way too much money for what they're selling. An all-wheel drive corolla in no way should be anywhere near 27 grand for a base model. I've specked it out before and it's outrageously priced. I can see why a lot of people are obsessed with the Maverick, It seems to be the only hybrid vehicle today that's reasonably priced.
I personally think the interior of the Maverick is very nice.
I can’t get behind a car with a CVT transmission.
its not a real CVT in the hybrid
Make it a manual!
Manual = 😅
0-60 is about 10 seconds Vmax is 112mph
A Corolla and Camry are made for people that have given up on driving, The people that buy these look at these as appliances, A-B; also the way they drive them on the road also show, they plod along under the speed limit, take forever to make a right turn and even longer to make a left turn at the intersection. A typical owner is a timid and overly cautious driver who is never following other cars but the line up following them is usually long. Is there a more boring car out there? I am sure its owners are equally boring.
I hate the dashboard
You never review Honda or Acura vehicles.
There are certain brands we don't feature on the show due to limited and untimely access. Honda/Acura is one of them.
I hear CVT I’m out. ✌🏽
Ford Maverick LMAO..
Maverick,Escape and Focus are all the same car with different bodies.
The auto trans blows up about every 25-40k miles. My daughters went through 4 transmissions in 130k miles and by the second I found out about the class action lawsuit because Ford refuses to recall it even though 80% of owners are having the same issue.
Buy a Maverick LMAO I’d give them $10k because I’ll need the other $10k for transmissionS.
That's not the way to drive a hybrid
Toyota sound system SUCKS , even in the $59k Highlander ugh 😫
2 ways to make a car more expensive to own
awd - need to replace all 4 tires at a time
hybrid - good luck with that battery after 7 years
Some people need awd though
@@JohnSmith-yr6je 95% can get by on FWD and snow tires
maybe 5% that need to literally drive through blizzards or through the mountains of Colorado
1. The AWD system isn’t mechanical here. It uses an electric motor.
2. There are many examples of the Prius still using the original battery after 10 years. Moreover, you can replace individual cells these day, so a whole battery isn’t a requirement.
Toyota has years and years of experience with hybrid power systems. Perhaps more so, than any other major automobile manufacturer. I owned a hybrid Highlander limited for 12 years. Never had any issues with the battery, or the entire hybrid system, for that matter. I believe the battery pack even came with a 10 year warranty at the time (2009). I wouldn't hesitate buying another hybrid, especially from Toyota.
Does not need Awd!
I feel like im the only person who likes silver cars🩶 lmfaaaooo🤣🤣 anyway nice review.
