2024 Toyota Yaris Cross Hybrid Test Drive
Hello and welcome to the driving portion of the toota Yaris cross hybrids so this car uses a 1.5 L 3 cylinder petrol combined with some batteries combined with the cvd transmission to give you 114 Bri horsepower 0 to 60 in just over 11 seconds there we go
And claimed MPG over 60 M to gallon real world high 50s low 60s da today heating’s on it’s cold it’s miserable in a g and but and it’s just it’s beautiful scen just it’s not the best weather and what we’re going to see is we’re going to find out how it is on
These Country Roads so being in Scotland it’s potentially going to be raining most days and the reason you might look at yis Cross is the standard yis standard standard hatchback the moment maybe a little bit low maybe not doing it for you in terms of you know you’ve had AIT
Snow wet driveway trying to get your your state whatever it may be the yis cross actually has a four-wheel drive version uh or a wheel drive version and that kind of stands out in class because other rivals in the segment do not it is hybrid only and
Automatic only so if you are looking to roll your own Gears not going to be the car for you but you know what automatic in this day and age just makes life so much easier sitting in traffic you know the Americans had that right all through
The ‘ 80s and ’90s where as Brits were sitting there Driving Manual you know corses and all this kind of stuff like this is where it’s at like hybridization and automatics it’s not a plug-in hybrid it’s just a standard you know kind of mild hybrid system it’s a little bit
More complicated than your standard 48 volt setup but I’m not going to go into those kind of details today in this kind of video but all you need to know is you’re not plugging in at home you’re putting your Petrol in you’re just going
To drive it leave it in D there is a b mode down here to you know give it that kind of regen breaking and can of maximize efficiency I’ve seen that another tool to Le his products I just leave it in Drive what you want to know
What you want to know from this video is what’s the light day today cuz that’s what it’s for it’s a sensible car for sensible people it’s got this kind of foxy SUV style we’ve got cruise control which do you know what I am more than happy with you can easily set up Radar
Radar gide cruise control even you know how often do you see that in a car never mind a compact SUV we know all the manufacturers out there they’re going to charge you over £1,000 for as an option extra Toyota are giving you that with their safety
System the gauges are easy to Le you know you’ve got nice big dials here for your temperature and your fuel gauge you’ve got Eco power and charge gauge in the left which honestly in any of these hybrids I don’t go to look at and you’ve got a nice in instrument display in
Front of is that it’s digital and it is kind of configurable you can slide it into different modes it goes different colors I leave it eco mode and just enjoy the MPGs going up you do get a green rating or Eco rating when you turn
Off the car so I think it Go 68% or 68 or something about 100 I’m not sure how well I done last time but I never knew i’ done that so oops of me but yeah out front visibility is great because you set that a little bit
Higher and gives you a little bit more confidence I guess when you’re driving around you there’s another Panda Cross or Panda 4×4 just went pastes there same kind of concept you know taking that small car and just raising it up a little bit the ride height is really
Nice so if you’re feeling like you know mending down and climbing up into your cars just not for you this is a nice VY inas into the car you know I think a lot of people like that same for the back seats to know if you’re going to be at
Shel seat and it’s just a nice height just to go and load your car and I guess that’s why this kind of crossover segment is more popular now not getting too much through these Tres this is the kind of wrong car to take in these in terms of for driving
Enjoyment you don’t buy a car L for Drive enjoyment you’re enjoying this because you be got a pitch in the back you’ve got kids in the back or you’re empty ners and you’ve got your Lou toil in the back what whatever it is what this car can do and you know you’re
Going to feel pretty confident in this car especially because with the 5ye warranty you know and then the additional 5 years if you want to continue getting a service that being dealer I think that’s just great it’s getting a little bit bumpy now there we go handles are all right
You know this is the front wheeel drive variant there is a forus me four-wheel drive variant but it’s a decent car you know um don’t know what else to say it’s soft compant it’s got a feel quality about it sound systems reasonable and it’s just going to do your day-to-day duties nice
And easy you know you’re not going to have any Cals with it you don’t have to worry about in the garage for D things breaking or window regulators breaking that happened on one of my older cars you know just you’re just going to get in and live your life and it’s going to
Be as painfree as possible and it’s easy to use and navigate and that’s what you want so thank you so much for watching and I’ll see you next video CIA
