Helmut, Excellent video, your right when it comes to efficiency Toyota hybrids are the best available. Years ago my wife and I purchased out first hybrid, a 2010 Toyota Prius back then the Generation 3 model, it was easy to get well over 50 mpg when most regular petrol cars would struggle to get 30 mpg. We sold that Prius to a friend 2 years ago when it had over 180,000 miles. Our friend still drives it with now well over 200,000 miles and has the original battery as well. Not only does the Toyota Hybrids deliver on MPG but they are very dependable cars and hold their resale value as well.
Thanks! You're right, not only are they efficient, they are also very reliable, which most people don't think as they don't understand the construction of the HSD-System. Multiple Planetary-Gearsets with 2 electric motors included is too clever for most people to get their heads round :)
I have Just bought a C-HR 2.0L hybrid Orange edition. What a great car, just loving the excellent fuel efficiency and the power. All those gadgets are pretty good too :)
A word to the "Pulse and Glide": it seems that when using the Toyota navigation it can predict when battery power is needed the most and when the car can make the most of regeneration (up- and downhill). So using Pulse and Gilde technique may interfere with the cleverness your car and maybe resulting in a less efficient consumption.
Its good result - the lexus ux has the same powertrain. Its even better, if we calculate, that Mr Ecodrivers driving knowledge is not that emphasized here in this special case (with brake-waste energy recovery systems, like this hybrid), than is in the simple gasoline/diesels (without energy recovery systems), where his driving knowledge/style means a lot. So an avarage user with an avarage drive in this hybrid can achieve close to this consumption, i think. EDIT: i have to correct myself: in spritmonitor hybrid chr-s avarage at 5,37 l. So Helmuts driving knowledge matters in this particular case too:)
Hi Zsolt, I think with hybrids the difference between a driver who knows and the rest is even bigger, as with the electric motor there is an additional component which helps to save fuel, but it needs to be understand how to be used the best way. E.g. if you are braking to hard you don't use the full amount of kinetic energy stored to be put back in the battery. And as those cars mostly are EVs with its much better efficiency the driver has a much bigger influence on the overall consumption than with "normal" ICE-Cars.
@@ecodriver1746 yeah, in this point of view u r right. Hard brakes(drivers without knowledge and "sporty.." style) destroy good results in hybrids for sure. Brake force limit and turning point is around the batterys power... if an avarage toyota hybrid 1,5kwh battery pack (in non plug-in hybrids there is a big% reserve of the capacity to save lifespan, so its real usable capacity is around 0,8kwh) can give force around 40kw (or even more, what is super), its charging speed around the same.. so if the brake force exceeds this 40+kw, its a total waste of energy, bc the discs works, not the battery. But i thought about avarage driver, with carefull behaviour(a.k.a. a lot gentle brakes) versus professional driver(closely no brakes). In this case, the professional driver like u can't get benefit of avoid brakes a most of the time. Soft brakes, what in a normal only internal combustion engine car waste all of brake energy,while in hybrids don't waste as many energy, just a friction of it, so the difference would be slightly less, between the two driver with different skills, i think. So 2 cases, 2 results, maybe:) But the spirtmonitor numbers say, your assumption(how the unskilled drivers really drive) is more common:) So Helmuts's skill matters a lot:)
Hello i would like to ask isn't it support to consume 0 fuel beetween 0-50 as it stated on their website? Because in the video it says it using fuel/100km
![Toyota C-HR 2.0L Hybrid: city fuel consumption (economy), real-life test :: [1001cars]](/img/n.gif)
This final consumption really is impressive, also due to Your excellent anticipative efficient driving which surely impacts the result.
Thanks. However, my aim is to share my knowledge, especially now when fuel-prices go through the roof... ;)

It's defo a fun-car, if you like hybrids :)
When I turned on the chr hybrid I didn’t even know it was on 🤩😅
The joy of hybrids... ;)
so the 2.0 is better than the 1.8 because of lower revs?

Just a small remark. In video title it is stated 1.8 hybrid but in the video you talk about 2.0 hybrid. Which one was actually used ?
Thanks, well spotted. It was actually the 2.0. I looked in the wrong line of my data for the vehicle details. Corrected now.
@@ecodriver1746 Thank you for clarification, this indeed is great fuel consumption for such power and weight.
So briefly Helmut … how is the 1.8L v the 2.0L consumption….. does everything even out of is the 1.8 the more efficient? Thanks

I'm the wrong addressee for this question. You need to ask Toyota.
Any chance of doing mpg review of Lexus NX 350h?
Not really, as the one Toyota-Dealer with Lexus doesn't want to cooperate, the one who does doesn't sell Lexus.
I had a a-class mercedes 200
Is a c-hr more economical?
