I love that the engine and the battery placement have been placed nearer to the firewall for better weight distribution and the result is a really great handling car. I test drove this corolla cross when launched and took a big corner under a heavy rain and the driving experience is sweet.
Yes, for the first time, Toyota had a philosophy to follow in designing a platform. With the objectives or pillars firmly in mind, they are more unified in building better cars.
Rest of this crossover looks good. That being said... A couple of -ves :- The protruding edges of the dashboard (below the side a/c vents) could potentially be knocked by the knee when entering the front seats. and...the floating infotainment display looks like a tombstone. Toyota could have done a better job to make it more integrated into the dashboard. Take a cue from BMW or Volvo.
Tested the Cross at the Section 19, PJ showroom at a very bumpy road around the area. Very impressed by the NVH of the car. Handling was good and this might well end up as our next car, since the lady boss approves of it as well.
How dare you to say something bad about Hondas!! Be careful being accused by those Honda fanboys that are blindly believing and only chose what they wanted to see. 😁😁 It’s a great daily and family car that helps you through ups and downs in life.
Uncle. I'll be getting my Toyota Corolla Cross V Spec soon. It comes with Toyo tyres instead of Michelin tyres. Any difference in terms of comfort etc? Thanks
Lots of difference. Double wishbone promotes good habdling but takes up a lot of space. Torsion beams work up to a point, but free up a lot of space for use. Wishbones are also more expensive to make.
@@YSKhongDriving thank you for explaining the differences of both. Doest Double wishbone also more onto comfortable ride? Torsion Bean would be feeling slightly bumpy right?
I tested drive on the G-spec 2 month ago. I must say is comfortable as i tested drive at Industrial area which a lot of hole on the road. But it might not that comfortable for a big size people like me as i wish the inner space can be a little bit more bigger. Uncle Khong, can give some idea on what is the difference between this Corolla Cross and Proton X30? As I plan to buy a new car, but don't know which is better between this 2 car.
Philippine spec Toyota Cross HV has a hybrid powertrain and the only difference is the sunroof and auto tailgate. I’ve gotten 34.5km/l in highway driving with the electric motor going even at 90kmh.
The two are designed for different objectives, so it depends on your needs. One is built for power, the other is built for reliability, a good ride and fuel efficiency.
American get the one with Multilink suspension, didn't impact the space for passenger pun 😂 Cargo maybe impacted as the awd n exhaust made the spare tire compartment abit taller But I guess most would appreciate if Toyota could offer the 2.0Df version here in Malaysia 😂
The interior space includes the cargo space. The C-HR is a prime example. This is a SUV, and space is important to the buyers. I hired an SUV in OZ when I was last there, and let me tell you luggage space was critical. As for engine size, there is always a trade off. Definitely the 1.8 has adequate power, unless you want to drive super fast. There are many other SUVs that offer more power, but...
@@YSKhongDriving yeah, but our CHR get the smallest capacity configuration. Other country get bigger one without the spare wheel. To our benefit is the floor n the seat fold relatively flat
Great video uncle Khong 🤩👍🏻With regards to the car 🚗 frankly no surprise as compared to G specs. It is rather disappointing actually. The speedometer still in analog. And, double wishbone is available in Toyota RAV4 so I wonder why can’t it be in Corolla cross. That’s a lot to compromise for Toyota lover. Perhaps G spec will be adequate. It’s a bonus to have Toyota safety sense but how reliable and frequent do we need it in actual drive especially in Malaysia. 😝
Nice, but compare to its sedan, this Corolla Cross is lower in specification. One good addition (compared to the sedan) is the USB charging ports for the rear passengers.
No need hybrid lah, this car is fuel economy... For the extra price of the hybrid you can use to pump alot of petrol already. And resell value will be affected when near to the battery life span.
When the time comes for dual clutch and turbo system problem, you’ll know the ease of maintenance for proton new models are not as carefree vehicles. Time will tell, but you must own one to witness, not “I listen to people or friends”.

You are most welcome.
15:03 harrier don't have camera but Corolla cross got?
A very thoughtful and detailed review. I learned a lot about this toyota new car.
Durability,comfort and easy maintenance. Better than Hondas.
Ouch to honda fanboy 😆
How dare you to say something bad about Hondas!! Be careful being accused by those Honda fanboys that are blindly believing and only chose what they wanted to see. 😁😁

Yes comfort wise definitely better than Honda... Honda's seats just seems to be sucks
@@sputnikfreshie3601 haha true.
Honda only good in bikes, but still behind Yamaha...lol😆
Good news. Waiting for my car . Hope will be here soon.
This has adaptive cruise control right?
How it functions? Similar to Corolla Altis? Any functionality differs?
Same as Altis.
Cannot wait my new car, alredy order V-spec..
How much isit
134k for V-spec
@@bibiyaakup8102 V spec I order 129,266 only without sst
Corolla Cross V-spec vehicles had now arrived early
into Malaysia ?
Yes. This is the demo unit, just arrived.
For those ordered vehicles, will only arrive in July ?
@@tanbk5432 yes
Hi Uncle Khong. There are reports of roof leaking from the Taiwanese market. Any issue with our Malaysian version?
So far no issues. Could be a batch problem for that country.
@@YSKhongDrivingThanks uncle Khong :)
The boot space is huge, Toyota moving forward
Would not have been possible with double wishbones.
@@YSKhongDriving agreed, Uncle. But why the second seat cannot tilt more. I like to sleep while some else drive, hahaha........
There is a limit to everything. The tonneau cover is just behind the seat.
Great review! Dont forget to stay safe Uncle YS
Thank you. I will.
Uncle, just wondering about the cvt transmissions. Is it reliable for long hours drive?
This transmission has neen around a long time. No problems.
Uncle. I'll be getting my Toyota Corolla Cross V Spec soon. It comes with Toyo tyres instead of Michelin tyres. Any difference in terms of comfort etc? Thanks
The Toyo tires are comfort tyres. Michelin also has a few ranges of tyres, for comfort and also performance tyres. Depends on what you select.
what is the different between buying from your website and buying directly from toyota website?
You get personal attention from us. And a special gift set.
the wheel of the v specs seems smaller than the g variant,,only the rim is bigger i think.
Not really. The size of the wheel for V spec is almost the same as G spec but yeah, only difference is the size inch of the tyre rim
Rim size is 18 inch for V spec. Tyre is 225 but lower profile, OD is similar.
may i know what is the differences in btw torsion beam & Double wishbone??
Lots of difference. Double wishbone promotes good habdling but takes up a lot of space. Torsion beams work up to a point, but free up a lot of space for use. Wishbones are also more expensive to make.
@@YSKhongDriving thank you for explaining the differences of both. Doest Double wishbone also more onto comfortable ride? Torsion Bean would be feeling slightly bumpy right?
@@Ikan_Bilis I'd like my SUV to have a more robust feel, so torsion beam is OK. Also it's more hardy and maintenance is likely be more cost efficient?
this tss have low speed follow and adaptive cruise control?
No, I don't think it does.
Uncle..Compare to New design HRV, which one is better...pro and cons
Have not seen the new HRV.
does it support android auto or just apple carplay only?
Yes
Great review, uncle! You have a lovely watch also 👌
Hahaha, present from my wife.
@@YSKhongDriving wow your wife has good taste in watches i must say..
May I know the difference between 2021 and 2022 version? Is the version 2022 will be released soon?
We have no news, but the hybrid version will soon be launched, I think.
Uncle, whats your opinion regarding the foot brake used by this car ?
I am perfectly okay with it. Leaves a useful space in the centre console. Can still do handbrake turn. I did it in my video, hahaha.
I tested drive on the G-spec 2 month ago. I must say is comfortable as i tested drive at Industrial area which a lot of hole on the road. But it might not that comfortable for a big size people like me as i wish the inner space can be a little bit more bigger.
Uncle Khong, can give some idea on what is the difference between this Corolla Cross and Proton X30?
As I plan to buy a new car, but don't know which is better between this 2 car.
The Cross is a C segment vehicle. The X50 is B segment and X70 is C segment
@@YSKhongDriving In term of feature are they same ?
better than philippine variant... 👍🏻👍🏻 nice sir...
Philippine spec Toyota Cross HV has a hybrid powertrain and the only difference is the sunroof and auto tailgate. I’ve gotten 34.5km/l in highway driving with the electric motor going even at 90kmh.
Uncle how does this compared to x70 which one would u pick
The two are designed for different objectives, so it depends on your needs. One is built for power, the other is built for reliability, a good ride and fuel efficiency.
very experienced explanation,
Already booked mine for the V spec. Will be release around July/August 😍 And excellent review from Uncle YS 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Any updates on new price .. Latest sst exemption up to dec2021 instead june
@@mrjunaidy983 now its 129k after sst exemption. Had to sign off new loan after that sst were announced
@@leofarrina tq btw ade in description above just x perasaan.. Good deal 5k less.. worth it.
How much commitment monthly?
@@mohdkhaidirmohdzain6037 RM1310 with public bank
How abt the maintenance for this car
Quite low.
Others showroom had displayed v type v also?
Not sire. I have not been to check other showrooms, but should be.
Is ASA system available for the New Corolla Cross V-spec ?
Yes, as said in the video. Did you watch it at all?
Unfortunately, for the TSS, the ACC is not until stop like the sedan.
Great Review! LOVE IT. STAY SAFE UNCLE YS!
uncle,if got a choice between cross vs altis,which one give most driving pleasure🤭
Both should be much the same, except one is higher and the other is lower.
Hai, saya nak tanya Toyota Corolla Cross 2.0 V ni dah mula dijual ke
Dah.
@@YSKhongDriving kereta ada jugak orang beli ke kalau di KL
there is no 2.0..only 1.8
TQ for rewiewing
Great review sir.....
Wat d new price after sst exemption.. Revise kan
Read the notes
@@YSKhongDriving tq boss.. I'm focus on vid.. Tq for the info.. Worth waiting
No worries.
Nice wan uncle👍🏽... Pls review the new g30😍
Can't wait for the infamous Genting Drive!
Is this a ckd model?
Yes
I thought it would be cbu
Nice review uncle but local spec offer seriously is not so attractive as what US market offer🤦♂️
They pay in USD we oay in ringgit
US offers hybrid. Some specs may not be the same. Depends on what the market wants. And some specs are only available for lh drive.
Better than that china x70
American get the one with Multilink suspension, didn't impact the space for passenger pun 😂
Cargo maybe impacted as the awd n exhaust made the spare tire compartment abit taller

@@YSKhongDriving yeah, but our CHR get the smallest capacity configuration. Other country get bigger one without the spare wheel. To our benefit is the floor n the seat fold relatively flat
I believe the American FWD version also gets torsion beam, only the AWD version gets multilink.
Great video uncle Khong 🤩👍🏻With regards to the car 🚗 frankly no surprise as compared to G specs. It is rather disappointing actually. The speedometer still in analog. And, double wishbone is available in Toyota RAV4 so I wonder why can’t it be in Corolla cross. That’s a lot to compromise for Toyota lover. Perhaps G spec will be adequate. It’s a bonus to have Toyota safety sense but how reliable and frequent do we need it in actual drive especially in Malaysia. 😝
That is why there are 2 specs to choose from. Just take the one that most appeals to you or take the Rav4
Nice, but compare to its sedan, this Corolla Cross is lower in specification. One good addition (compared to the sedan) is the USB charging ports for the rear passengers.
They also need to keep the price sane, considering the competition, etc.
Good value
It is a hybrid vehicles
Not this one.
Uncle how much price for this car? Have also waive of sst?
Its just under 130k. SST is waived until end of year, but you should put your name down quick because there is a long line.
Is Toyota Corolla Cross V-spec vehicle running on Timing Belt ?
I think the belt has not been used for about 10 years already.
wow.... V spec engine hood got Insulation cotton cover.. G spec no have.. haha
Oh, ya, didn't notice.
What is the size of this car.? Is it similar to HRV or x70.? Thanks
4460mm long, 1825mm wide. Wheelbase 2640.. Bigger than HRV
@@YSKhongDriving but smaller than X-70, X-70 nearest size is Toyota RAV4
Correct, but RAV4 is bigger.
Is the engine GDI. ?
Not too sure, but I thought I saw port injection. One web said it is gdi, but it could be wrong
Frust..Toyota not bring Hibrid engine
Could be a cost issue.
No need hybrid lah, this car is fuel economy... For the extra price of the hybrid you can use to pump alot of petrol already. And resell value will be affected when near to the battery life span.
I think proton’s suv is better... much better...
I think each has its good points.
But honestly, Proton suv maintenance is expensive than Toyota suv
When the time comes for dual clutch and turbo system problem, you’ll know the ease of maintenance for proton new models are not as carefree vehicles.
Time will tell, but you must own one to witness, not “I listen to people or friends”.
Reliability, 2nd value..weak point Proton compare Toyota
U can join the x70 group, quite many problems and no spare part and poor after sales...youbget what you pay for.
A dummy for the lumbar adjustment just to remind you what you didn't get 😅
I think specs are different for different markets.
To me the design of the grill n the bumper make her look ugly. The rest can make every head turns.
That’s your choice bro. But this design looks good though, especially front bumper doesn’t look bad at all.
Looks are very subjective and it depends on the beholder. Personally I like it.
hahahahaha oh my god handle.......
