    I need to correct you on the Corolla Cross. It does not use a "standard" AWD system. It uses the same E-AWD system that is found in both the Prius and Corolla. The difference being that a "standard" AWD system has direct physical connection from the motor in the front, to the rear wheels. The Toyota E-AWD uses a completely separate electric motor for the rear wheels that only kicks in when the system detects loss of traction on the front wheels, or in off the line acceleration.
    I also need to correct you on the engine that it's in the Prius. The 2023 Prius does not use the same engine as the Corolla and Corolla Cross. Toyota upgraded the Prius to a 2.0l engine to increase power and fuel economy. The Corolla and Corolla Cross continue to use the previous generation of Prius drivetrain with the 1.8l engine, but with a new (for 2023) and more powerful electric motor and battery. This increased the power in the Corolla Hybrid at the loss of a few MPG. Other than this misinformation in your video it was a good summary and comparison of the cars.

    Another good list. Can't really fault the Toyota's - they're really the only manufacturer that has a long track record of building reliable hybrids. The only caveat is that most people don't consider the math when it comes to hybrids; they're only worth the extra cost if you do an enormous amount of in-city driving every year, and plan to get rid of the car before the battery ever becomes an issue.

    • @mikej238
      @mikej238 Год назад +15

      not true, the price difference from hybrid and the same non hybrids models is miniscule. Look at the Lexus NX....its basically the same price. Hybrids , no alternator, no starter, no serpentine belt and the brakes last 3x as long. Batteries last 15 years without any noticeable mpge loss. And they don't cost a mythical 10g like you believe. There are Prius on the road with 300 000 miles with their original battery. Gas isn't going to get any cheaper..especially in places like Canada..you will be taxed to death...I'll take 5.7l/ 100km over 8.5lper /100kms any day

    • @Dakiraun
      @Dakiraun Год назад +4

      @@mikej238 Not sure what prices you're looking at - difference with NX models for normal vs. hybrid are about 3 grand. And I never said anything about 10g replacement costs at all. Your other statements are only partially true depending on the make of the hybrid as companies use different methods for making them. My point, which you seemed to completely miss, is that hybrids DO save you money, just with certain conditions and criteria. A person has to evaluate how they drive and work the math to see if they come out ahead or not.

    • @mikej238
      @mikej238 Год назад

      @@Dakiraun wrong...check the price of the NX . Depending on trim level some non hybrid ones are actually MORE expensive. The NX350H is the best value and top selling model.
      Rav 4....43% of them sold last year were hybrid. I think simple math is beyond your capability. 40% saving in gas pays for itself very fast even if you only drive 1000 miles a month.

      @@mikej238I did check - you don't seem to understand that they have a non-hybrid and hybrid version of each trim level. Yeah, sure the hybrid less-fancy trim is cheaper than the fancy non-hybrid trim, but if you compare the prices of going from non-hybrid to hybrid with the fancy trim levels, it's a $3K step for each. You don't get things for free dude.

    @jeffruebens8355 Год назад +6

    The gasoline engine does less work for a hybrid, so hopefully will be more reliable. A friend at work recently traded in a regular Hyundai Tucson earlier than usual, because it was losing too much engine oil and the dealership shop was stalling to fix it under warranty, hoping to force him to pay for it later. I recommend changing the engine oil every 4 thousand miles with a full synthetic if it is a vehicle known for reliability problems, and every 5 thousand miles for vehicles known for more reliability. I like to read the April issue of Consumer Reports magazine at a library, about reliability and owners satisfaction. They make educated guesses about reliability, based on history and over 300 thousand owners surveys every year. Car & Driver does not guess at all, just focusing on how they drive, and any problems during their long term testing.

    Thanks -- Your video has helped me decide which Crossover to choose; I like the Toyota Corolla Cross; my daughter drives a Subaru Crosstrack and loves it... I was considering a Kona, but instead I will purchase a brand-new Toyota Cross Hybrid AWD... hopefully prices will come down very soon or become reasonable for the product between now and 2025. Currently I drive a 1998 Toyota Camry-LE with 225K miles, which has become boring after 25 years, but continues to run fairly well. Originally, I planned to drive my old Camry until it reached 300K miles, but I'm ready to jump-ship and buy new after 25 years. So, either in year 2023-2024-2025 models of which I plan to purchase... unsure which year depending on price the economy recession and waiting timeframe. I appreciate your videos thanks for sharing your expertise and knowledge.

      @wolfshanze5980 Год назад +2

      If you want a Hybrid or PHEV in 2023, you'll probably have to do what everyone else does... order one and wait a few months (to a year). I ordered a Tucson Hybrid last summer and it finally came in December (5 months later)... but the upside is I got exactly what I wanted in color, interior, features, etc, without getting stuck with a color or feature I didn't want because it was all they had on the lot. Sometimes ordering is just better. Only time it isn't is if you need a car TODAY... if you can wait a few months, just order exactly what you want.

    I am 40 and have been driving a manual transmission since I was 15. Covid-19 ruined manufacturing and I pretty much have no more options, so for the past year and a half, right when I paid off my current car, a 2016 Ford Focus Sedan (manual transmission), I have been focusing on a hybrid. It is a little bit beyond my budget, but I really think within a year I will buy a Prius-the most basic model. The Prius looks like an angry car-I love the size and the design is really cool.

      I think you can no longer comment on videos about Hyundai/Kia until you actually do some research and join the rest of us here in 2023 instead of living on rumors from 10 years ago. What do you consider being "serious" about engine fires? Maybe, stop producing that engine (2.4L Theta... CHECK)... maybe stop putting it in vehicles (CHECK)... maybe make completely different engines that have had no problems for multiple years and use those instead (CHECK)... maybe watch some reviews from, oh, I dunno, scores of sites that all say Hyundai and Kia have completely turned everything around and are now putting out some of the best vehicles out there.
      Or are you just going to sit in a cave, not learn anything and pretend that companies never get better (or worse) and realize that Toyota used to make junk cars that everyone hated and they were a laughing stock, but got better... oh, and speaking of Toyota, when are you going to get serious about ACTUAL CURRENT RECALLS ON ENGINES like Toyota currently recalling CURRENT Rav4's for engine cracks and problems? Seems you are talking crap about a company based on old information that is both out of date and no longer applicable, while ignoring actual current recalls on current models for engine problems from other companies.

      Cut the BS. Toyota circle**rking is why everyone's paying MSRP + 10k on their mediocre cars.

      You're whining and complaining about the Theta engine, which isn't a thing anymore.
      You're completely full of sh!t when you say fires are attributed to the l.6L Turbo Hybrid (which I own btw), the fires are attributed to the old Theta non-aspirated engine which is no longer in production... it just goes to show that you're completely clueless and don't know what you're talking about.
      You need to do some research before you open your mouth and sound like a fool.
