These Corolla Cross's have been selling very well in South Africa, quite a lot of demand. When the Toyota factory was flooded in Durban the prices shot up drastically but thankfully they have resumed production again.
I like how they do test drives in S.A. - they really push the vehicles to the limit! ✌️
As a big family guy, outdoors guy, boot measurements , seats folded, flat area it's paramount to me. Love the care with this item that these channel always have.
great you re with us !
I appreciate the work that you do, Thomas. Your reviews are incredibly detailed. Thank you and keep being awesome!
thanks! Feel free to recommend =)
This is just arriving in NZ now, I took one for a test drive and really liked it (and ordered one). My first hybrid, was surprised how quiet it was, and smooth around town, no concerns on the highway either. Driven normally, I hardly ever noticed the petrol engine kicking in. It's not a luxury car, but a good practical option and comes with way more tech/safety than my CRV and the infotainment is much more modern (and a nice size screen).
My wife and I test drove one here in Australia. It impressed me as well. It was only in the showroom for a few hours and there were people waiting to test drive it. It already feels like it will be quite popular.
Yes I think it will be a common sight on our roads, it ticks all the boxes here - being an SUV, hybrid saves fuel, and eligible for a govt rebate. The dealer called me as soon as they got their demo in, but folks had to book a timeslot to view/drive it.
An ABSOLUTELY Excellent car report .. I've not seen you before ..just BRILLIANT detail.
I really love the two person review. Nobody else do it as far as I know. So much details you mentioned, well explained, please continue.
Throttle House does
No need for two persons. Thomas will do. And the subtitles? What the hell for???
there is the Two Take reviews, which are nice
And TheStraightPipes
This model has become one of the top sellers in South Africa where its built locally.
Great review, this car revives my faith in toyota and makes me want to get one
Enjoyed the commentary from both of you in the car.
cheers m8 !
Great review
Finally a channel in English reviewing EU cars ! Been struggling to find a good review in English for this car in EU and now I am at Peace! Thanks man !
SDA Dan cars is also good

Thomas, thank you so much, excellent job, excellent presentation and reliability of “Autogefuhl” is even greater than Toyota!!
Thanks keep tuning in !
One of the best Corolla Cross reviews. Saying hello from Canada!
Best greetings!
thank you for the honest review! Also 2-person format works well guys!
🙏🙏🙏
This guy is incredibly through and definitely puts the Corolla Cross Hybrid on my list of cars to consider going forward.
👌
Good to see Brian, again and as usual a great review for us in the UK who for years couldn't buy any corolla as Toyota UK didn't import them.
Cheers m8!
Unfortunately looks like they won't be importing this car either! Seems a very strange decision.
Great to hear Brian in the background. Let’s have more of these please
=)
Exactly, keep Brian in the background, it's enough for him.
Intrigued by this new SUV. Looks nice too (in my opinion). Can’t wait to test drive it!
Thank you for being so indepth. Great video.
🙌🙌
I do enjoy your review videos, no nonsense and real world experience and very entertaining and informative. As a fan of the Honda offerings in this segment I was interested to hear you compare this Toyota to them, so few others do, they seem to be ignored (cue sarcastic comments!) If I hadn't got a HRV e HEV due in November this might well be on my list. Another great video, thank you.
thanks !! most welcome.
HRV review is here: ruclips.net/video/MkitHIp7wC4/видео.html
@@autogefuehl It was one of the first I watched!
awsome =)
Your review has swayed me away from the RAV4 and into the market for a Corolla Cross. Comparison of power, features and practically seem to check all the boxes I need. Great job. 👍
Cheers and enjoy!
I like your test. I enjoy it! and I just ordered a New Cross! thank you, I was inspire by you. previous car was CHR
Cool enjoy 😊
Excellent review, down to the smallest detail, it looks like you dressed the vehicle and felt like you were a part of it, which is good for an honest and sincere review. Compared to Brazil, this model has evolved positively in every way, although here it has these attributes of good handling and comfort.
Great video! Brian's thoughts were very on point and helped solidify my opinion on this car. Thanks, gents.
thanks! Please recommend our videos :)
Thank you Thomas!!!
🙌🙌🙌
Kolejny dobry materiał. Lubię Was oglądać. Profesjonalnie i fachowo. Tak trzymać. Powodzenia.
🙏
Good Review. Thank you. Finally something worth buying.
Thanks 🙏
Thank you for subtitles.
you re welcome. Please recommend
Excellent review mine is on order ! GX FWD Hybrid !
I got one mid last month, a hybrid. Love it.
Is it overall silent?
I reckon this car will take the market by storm
Thanks for a very detailed and objective review. Excellent work.
Highly appreciated! Please share!
Thomas, you're still growing? You used to be 1.86 m. The all new 2022 version of you is now 1.89 m taller! Great video review as usual!
thanks! obviously haha
Thanks you for your review. Waiting for Thailand market.
thanks, keep tuning in :)
Best walkthrough
thanks John !
I'm pleased to hear Toyota have addressed NVH. Seems like they have greatly improved refinement.
As usually very good review. I was the owner of 2 normal Corolla in the past and I appreciate they never failed - really reliable cars. But the assembling/interior quality (with comparison to my actual Golf Alltrack)was not so good. And the worst was lacquer which quality was poor - scratching very fast.
This is a direct competitor, due to hybrid engine and size, also to Nissan Qashqai E-Power and Tucson/Sportage HEV. By the way great review as always, thank you!
I ordered the same one in October 2023 but I don't know when I will receive it, I come from Belgium and it will be my first hybrid, very good report, thank you
Well done review Thomas
In Malaysia, the wait period for this is more than 9 months, I booked in June, still no word from Toyota
Thanks! Crossing fingers!
I love it, great looking car and looks premium inside 😁 smooth quiet drive too, thanks for all your commentary
Thanks keep tuning in !
Hopefully launches in UK soon..great looking car.
Great review!
A great review , a really interesting vehicle, good effort from Toyota 👍👍
That was hilarious about the BMW comment..another great review.
The comment about BMW revealed that this is an advertisement. It's funny to compare it with BMW
Thanks for mentioning the superior legroom of the HONDA HR-V. Which will be in my garage in January 2023. I also think the quality and the design of the interior and the exterior is nicer. And I like Honda´s solution of the hybrid system. It´s a pity they do not sell many cars in Germany/Europe, because they are so brilliantly engineered and prove durability and longevity.
Would love to try this in the Swedish winter snow
Greetings, thank you for what you do for us..تحياتنا لك شكرا لك على ما تقدمه لنا
appreciated !
I have a Fiat Panda 4x4 which is brilliant and I can do the shopping with 2 kids. I have owned 2 Rav4's before and loved them, but didn't like the look of the recent model. This looks great though. And I live with snow 4 or 5 months of the year so awd is a bonus. Great review.
The wife has a Rav4 entry model. I drive mk7 1.6tdi vw golf. I got this corolla cross out as garage car while mine was in being serviced. If you need lumbar support, you need sport spec as entry models in Ireland don't have lumbar support. I had sport spec on loan and really, really liked it. I would even say it drives better than Rav4, but not much in it. Rav4 has some small swaying movement in it, like being on a boat at times. Corolla Cross is a lot more settled. I love the seats in vw golf so if you're used to that comfort, you definitely need to spec lumbar support in toyota. Corolla suspension was tested, tweaked a lot on Irish roads.. fun fact.
Wow! that 10 inch infotainment screen looks great, which we had it in the USA, Im guessing we will get it with the 2024 model
Nice review 👍. Is there any chance that you have information about ground clearance?
wow... I was thinking for X3... will try this too!
Nice review , like always guys. I have one wish, if you are willing to fulfill it. Full compare test TONALE HYBRID VS TOYOTA CROSS HYBRID. What is good, what is bad between those 2 cars. In that test want both of you guys...Thanks
enjoy our Alfa Tonale driving review here: ruclips.net/video/Bw9DSpIhf5k/видео.html
Thank you for a very detailed review. I didnt hear Milage given as MPG
Didnt we? Sorry if not, u can just type it in Google then
Great revue guys
subbed you
highly appreciated! Please recommend :-)
Kofferraum, a new German word today Thomas, thanks!
My pleasure! 😎
I have been waiting for this car to enter the uk market and for your review. Clean sharp lines as you say with some cheap plastics and a little utilitarian. I find the corporate face rather sad with its downturned lips. Decided not to wait any longer and went for the revised T-Roc. Highly delighted thus far.
This was one of the best reviews of this car which helped with my decision, so i booked and Test drove this vehicle today: Limited FWD version. What can I say, it doesn't disappoint and I'm amazed with how refined is it. Heaps of space, It's comfortable, packed full of tech and safety features. It can park itself man, lol. But that hybrid system is a huge improvement. I was able to start from 0 to 50km/h in pure EV mode for a little while until the engine kicked on, it wasn't sluggish and it saved loads of fuel.
Name is down for one until Toyota NZ are able to order, prolly won't recieve till 2024, gives me time to get myself squared away. I'm going for the top spec Limited AWD Hybird version.
Cheers Autogefühl
U re welcome! And enjoy 😊
Heya I’m in NZ also and also if planning a n a new car. The think these hybrids are the way to go.
I drove civic sport yesterday using a 1.5ltr turbo and cvt. Nice car but the cvt does detract a little. About 13km/ltr.
I would like to test drive civic hybrid, corolla hybrid and this featured vehicle.
It do wonder how much acceleration you will loose opting for all wheel drive?
@@HighMaintenancePS The one i test drove was a FWD, they didn't have a AWD demo, but i believe with the rear motor helping out it'll give u a bit more accerlation off the mark. The fuel consumption didn't take much of a hit either, only .1.
I hope this can come to South Africa. Would look at it after I am done with my RAV4 Hybrid
Cool car. Buckle up competitors! Quick question, is this the same power train that the new Prius is using? Thanks!
Good car, good review
thanks !!
Just ordered one. Coming on september.
enjoy !
i found that the corolla i have (2020 model hybrid) actually werent as thirsty on the high ways as i tought it would be, cuz the electrik endgine were helping the normal one out and kept the revs down, 400km drive i avrage 0.52l
Still enjoying your occasional German lessons @Thomas. Nice review guys. Danke.
@toyota please let it have the 2 litre hybrid in Australia, not the asthmatic 1.8
cheers m8 =)
NZ and Australia are getting the same 2.0L hybrid, as in Europe.
This car is such a breeze amazing allround
Sir Richard, your car of Toyota Corolla Cross was very nice and 2 liter hybrid very thrifty, very good! 👍
Greetings to Brian behind cam
Thomas et brian 😁 ? le tandem de choc 🙏, les meilleurs,
je crois que les véhicules les plus proches et les sérieux concurrents a comparer avec cette corolla cross et que vous avez oublié sont plutôt la hunday tucson et la kia sportage, du côté dimensions que du côté système hybride, l'avantage aux coréennes côté finitions intérieures et équipements et l'agrément de conduite grâce à leurs boîte automatique 6 rapports mais côté efficience et économie l'avantage revient à la toyota cross , bonne continuation et à bientôt, see you soon ☺️
merci beaucoup =)
another great review as usual. my corolla cross hybrid on order. can't wait (but have to say good bye to my ford focus RS!! the toyota might be abit slower but more practical !! haha)
thanks keep tuning in to our channel :-)
Much more suitable for me than the rav4 which is now a bit too big, the corolla cross comes in at 4.46m which is pretty manageable. The hybrid with awd is a fantastic powertrain
I am 187 tall and had the chance to look at one today. I was hugely disappointed. At first I couldn’t work out why the rear view mirror was so low on the windscreen. I had to lower the seat using the pump lever, to see under it. I then realised it’s because the rear window is low to the ground due to the pinched back design. I had planned to share the vehicle with my 154 wife. Every time you change driver would require to pump that stupid lever driving me crazy. Then I sat in the back seat. Just moving my head slightly from side to side resulted in hitting my head on the roof. We have been driving an 06 Subaru Forester which we love. It is the same footprint but feels way less claustrophobic and has much better field of view. The cross feels like a coffin. 😢
I enjoyed watching the First Drive Review. I don’t particularly like Interior design as It could be better If It had soft touch materials 😊
Thanks Jamie!
Awesome to see this Corolla Cross all over the world, Proud to say that I work for Mazda Toyota where the Cross is produced!!! #TeamOne #MazdaToyota
What did Brian have hold of in his left hand when passengering?
Toyota certainly have a winner there by the looks. Thanks chaps.👍
Remote for the action cam 😎
I really enjoyed watching this video. I could tell that both of you were quite impressed with this Corolla Cross. Was it the 4WD model or 2WD? Did you think this was any quieter at higher speeds than the Nissan Qashqai you tested recently? I have been watching your video’s (from Australia) for some time now, and really appreciate your entertaining & detailed reviews.
Cheers! This was fwd
Great u re with us!
Hmmm tough to say vs the Qashqai, imho a little bit more quiet
@@autogefuehl Thanks for your prompt reply. Much appreciated.
@@autogefuehl 4wd or 2wd?thank you
Thomas, that’s literally one of the last tolls in Cataluna and the most expensive in Spain. They’ve been removing tolls all over the country, expecting some additional tax any moment now. Also fun fact, Spain has the most km of highway in Europe and 3rd in the world after China and USA.
they are removing these stations? Why? Thats so interesting!
Thank you very much for your interior measurements and showing the situation when the rear seats are folded. I am looking for a vehicle that has a high ground clearance and can sleep in it for camping. In this case, this car is not suitable for this. I'm checking out your other reviews right now.
🤗
13:20 haha, Thomas rules!
😂
appreciated the attention to button clicky noises, door latch noise and German vocabulary :-)
👍👍
Which one is overall more quiet? The Mazda CX30 or the Corolla Cross?
But... isn't Mazda CX-30 a better drive and handling, better suspension (more comfort), also quieter, ~ same space (aside the tiny windows), almost the same fuel consumption but way more premium feeling for you, but most importantly, for your family in the back seat? I'm trying to decide... (I also loved your review of Mazda 6 touring!)
I went to look at Toyotas in my local showroom recently and every interior was coal black and felt claustrophobic and unappealing. This seems the same. I wish they would offer a lighter colour option for their car interiors. Honda interiors much more appealing to me.
Hey Thomas, great review as always!
How about the engine sound at higher speeds such as 150 km/h? Is it still roaring as much as the previous version?
All the best!
thanks!! Spain it was, couldnt drive that fast! Trying to repeat in Germany.
Thanks Thomas! Hope you could make it. Seems like a decent car but that sound would be the only blocker in my opinion :)
the top spec hybrid variant goes for $50k before on-road cost here in Australia. 😬
Great review as usual. Don’t understand why Toyota have a narrow door opening design policy. The Aygo X is even worse, it makes the rear passenger space very difficult to enter. Even our dog couldn’t jump in.
cheers m8 !
Get rid of your dog.
Really beautiful! It is the RAV4 for Europe, the other, beautiful though is more suitable for the USA
It needs the new interior like in the new Prius.
Hi there, great video and review! What do you think the consumption will be at 130 km/h?
Thanks! Like 6 l / 100 km i guess maybe lil more
This car is the best-selling Toyota in my country (Vietnam). It doesn't have the most fancy design, tech or the best driving experience. But it's certainly a very well made car and they balanced everything really well.
Still driving the original corolla All wheel drive wagon from 1988 and it's reliability reputation in Australia is well deserved. The only issues I can see with this is the lack of a spare wheel. Interesting to hear a European perspective where Toyota is a bit player in the market. And perhaps the utilitarian, strong engineering and reliable nature are not so appreciated.
Finally a European review on the Corolla Cross❤
The color is also called Manhattan Grey, I know 'cause I bought a Corolla Cross with this color today 🙂
Thank you for another excellent review. We have a Corolla ZR1 Hybrid and a Golf mk7.5, the latter we plan to upgrade to hybrid/EV (eg Cupra Born - but two kids and a dog). However, this may have changed our minds as we can't warm to the appearance of the RAV 4 despite it's success. Hoping this is coming to Australia? We have one request for your comprehensive reviews - following a tyre blow out on a big pot hole in the Blue Mountains that couldn't be repaired by the 'toy' puncture kit in the Corolla we always want to know: FULL SIZE SPARE/RUN FLAT/KIT ONLY - if you would be so kind? I think it was mentioned that there was nothing under the cover in the back of the Cross? With the distances we do in Australia I went out and bought a full size wheel and matching tyre just so that I never spend hours waiting for a tow truck that cost a fortune back to Sydney! Best regards from our family to you and the team. MM.
Thanks 🙏 good point, not sure but i havent seen a spot where u could fit a full spare tyre
@@autogefuehl The roof looks like a good spot.👍
Just soo cute
I like it because it looks outside and inside more expensive as the US version.
Your version is very different to the Canadian version. Ours has a silver cover over where an amber turn signal would go but no we get crappy cheap turn as tail. We don’t have a Hybrid version .. Yet. The DRLs are way different .
Toyota knows how to work torsion beam suspensions to make it both comfy and sporty
Double wishbone actually
