I also have a 17 CT FSport model. Can’t complain, I couldn’t daily a 4Runner with current gas prices. Had to get a sexy looking hybrid from Toyota/Lexus and I’ve always loved the CT!
I absolutely love the look of these and the fuel economy! Currently have an ‘05 Corolla but likely will get one of these as my next car.. finally it’s time to step up in luxury… still deciding on the standard or F Sport, but thanks for the review…can’t wait to get one!
I got a 2012 four months ago. 1,50,k kms for 14 grand here in Canada. Every single maintainance from the Lexus dealership from the previous single owner. Lexus did the maintainance for about 5 grand before they did the safety for me. It runs like butter, little slow on speed but whenever I go to a gas station to fill it up, it cheers me up lol. Your looks even better with the white and black combo Cheers!
@@LetsDriftMedia No doubt, the gas would kill ya. The new LS is beautiful! I test drove new 22. Omg! But that sticker price is so high in this market right now. So until the market drops, which it will. I try to just ride my Honda CBR as much as possible here in Florida. But with the damn swamp heat and rain, it's hot or miss 😂
Did not know you could also LOCK the doors with the sensor handle.... Good to know 😂. Had my 2013 (non F Sport) almost a year and loving it. Would love to upgrade to a 2017 F Sport in blue once it's fully paid off. Sad they dont make these anymore. Not really a crossover guy, UX hybrid is kind of nice but not really my style. CT is the perfect daily vehicle for me
What a good brother you are to your sibling. The blind spot mirror can easily be fixed with small circular mirror sell at O'Reilly auto parts which you can adjust the angle of the mirror. It's called blind spot mirror.
I agree the Lexus CT200h is a very kool looking car. Myself I think its sexy. I have one but its not a Sport like yours. I'm still very happy w/it. I want one like yours. Mine is 2016. I want a 2017. If someone out there has a 2017 that has low mileage and is great shape let me know. I might think of buying it. Thank U!
I used to have one of these and man never had any troubles with the most mpg I ever was close to 50. The last owner used to just romp on and didn’t really care but never had anything wrong with it
I swear everytime I want a car, you already had the same idea haha. I bought a 98 LS400 a few years back when you had two and now I wanted one of these CTs lol
@@hustlefinds8009 head gaskets, oil burning through the piston rings and clogged EGR. Since it’s the same engine as the Prius. I haven’t seen to many 2017 models fail tho. At least when I worked at Toyota that is.
I picked up a 2016 ultra white fsport back in july. Wish it had slightly more power but it is what it is. Sooooooooooooo much better looking than a prius and in general I really think it's Lexus's better looking models. I also have a 2020 RCF so it's night and day driving experiences between the two..lol Pretty good modding out there for the car as well. I'm going to be putting blue f-sport lowering springs on it in the spring and a few other things but that's it mainly. Overall such a cool car! Most people don't even realize what it is.
@@dasphoenixable yea really isn’t. I’ll probably get something else in a few years since I get bored of the same car easily but for now this thing is great 👍
@@LetsDriftMedia Maybe one day I’ll explore the fun hot hatch market, for now I daily a Tundra which is great with these fuel prices since it has such well known fuel economy.
I average 62mpg in the UK using the CT 200h as a taxi. If you move the front seats forward a little there is just about enough leg room in the back and I'm 6' 4. I went from a Prius to the CT 200H F Sport as it has the same engine as the Prius but looks considerably better. I don't know how you're only everaging 32mpg. I can't get below 50mpg regardless of how hard I drive.
Interesting. Maybe it’s because of my commute. Have to go up a pretty steep incline freeway everyday to work. I will get 60mpg on the way down the hill tho. But on average 37.
I also drive a 2013 Prius V and say the same thing.Ugliest car I’ve ever driven but by far the best car I’ve ever driven and now thinking of getting the same car as you.👍
The CT200 is definitely way better looking, but I still miss my prius after 2 years now, Prius is alot more comfy as well as alot more cargo/passenger space.
I bought a 2018 CT F-sport a month ago (slightly face lifted from this model) with only 10,000 miles from New. Fortunate enough that it has white leather and black highlights . It's a great car currently doing 5L/100kms or 47 mpg
@LetsDriftMedia thanks I actually prefer the rear treatment of your car as the 2018 model in f sport trim is a little too over the top for my taste, bought this as a daily for my wife. I wanted something more reliable without the need for expensive fuel than our 2012 Gti Golf
Nice car, dude. My only complaint is that I have to have someone lift on the fender to rack them at the dealership because they sit so low. I’m also new though, so maybe there’s a better way
VERY nice CT! I think it's cool to mod CT's/Prii. I'm an ole fart, who owns a 2019 Prius Limited. Where do u go to look for stuff to mod? Those NEW Gen5's look sharp!
Test drove one of these, it was really smooth and has power. The only thing I didn’t like was it took about 10 Seconds for the Engine to start, not sure there was a faulty delay?
Its a lot nicer than a reg toyota tho. My mind always gets confused when I expect it to be more toyota and then Im like what car is this again...tf. LOL
I drive a 12 Prius i love that it saves me so much money on gas. The thing is ugly but having no car payment is the the best. Those CT200h are sweet though awesome daily driver for sure.
@@ricardoalamo8704 nice. Main thing I miss about the prius was how much stuff you can fit in the trunk. Those things are roomy. Great cars too even tho they get a lot of hate still good cars

Ct200 is ok. Poor mpg tho. I’d picked a 3rd gen Prius plug-in over it. Lots of ppl hate the look of a Prius but it’s grown on me. My daily is a Prius plug-in four advanced all optioned out and my sporty car is an is350 f sport.
How can a car guy drive such a slow car? I get it for most normal people that don’t like driving and are not car people but for an actual car enthusiast?
@@LetsDriftMedia I also did the same exact thing. I drove 100 miles a day in my s2000 or my evo. Probably average 20mpg. Then I though I save $$ so I bought a civic hybrid. Average high 30’s mpg. After a little while as a car guy that loves driving and loves cars it was not worth the $20 in gas savings per day. When I work a lot the best part of the day is driving. Driving my civic hybrid was sole crushing.
I feel you, I would love to daily a NA V8 ISF no doubt that was my ideal plan. But being a home owner priorities change. When I don't have to commute so far I will definitely get a "cool fast" DD but for now this will do.
Literally one of my favorite newer cars. So much style and awesomeness of a Prius
STYLIN
This is my current car and I love it. I'm still impressed at how cool it looks every time I walk up to it.
I was a little sad when I sold mine but I replaced it with a Tesla Model 3 Performance so I wasn't very sad for long. Haha.

thanks man. and yea def not a fast car lol but its got decent pickup for a little 4 cyl.
Congratulations!
Nice car, I was considering that Lexus as well.
My daily is 98 LS 400.
Thanks. LS400s are one of my favorite cars. Would love a newer LS but doesn’t make sense for commuting with the price of gas rn
@@LetsDriftMedia No doubt, the gas would kill ya.
The new LS is beautiful!
I test drove new 22. Omg!
But that sticker price is so high in this market right now. So until the market drops, which it will.
I try to just ride my Honda CBR as much as possible here in Florida.
But with the damn swamp heat and rain, it's hot or miss 😂
@@peterinfante6187 I bet. I still have my 94 LS400 would be awesome to have a 22 !
I daily a ‘91 🫡
That funny my daily is a 95 LS400 and with the price of gas I'm looking at a CT200H to use instead (not selling the LS!)
It’s a good car I have one for daily too, don’t forget to get the cat shield to deter thieves from stealing it

Your whip is pimpin keep it up Nick!!!
CT200H's are amazing, Just don't get the first couple years since they had a issue with headgaskets 0.0

We were road tripping in it when that happened tho
Fancy Prius
And a very good fancy Prius as well

I feel you. We had to do that with the FRS anytime they came in as well.
I get you, in my old one I’d have to go sideways over speed bumps
These are decent dailies...what happened to the 3 series? I would see if there is a Carplay retrofit for the CT if one is even available.
I ended up selling the e46 last year since I stopped driving it as much when I had the Prius. Miss the e46 tho was a fun car
I been looking for one of these. They are niceeeeee.
I love my 2017 CT200h!
Me too!
i deadass did an alignment on this and and oil change and had to reset the light and this popped up on my recommendation wtf

Its not bad, its a hybrid the engine doesn't always have to start when you turn on the car.
::raises hand:: did they fix the headmaster and/or pcv issue?
Now I know why you were late to work today, lol
Hey I filmed this earlier this week! Lol
does it have carplay support? I am planing on getting one.
No. I wish it did
Nice wheel locks
That's about £22,000.00? Bit more expensive than that car in UK.
Its a lot nicer than a reg toyota tho. My mind always gets confused when I expect it to be more toyota and then Im like what car is this again...tf. LOL
Should've kept the Prius! No car payment is the best lol
I know man this is the first car payment I’ve ever had lol.

does the cvt bother you at all ?
Feels weird at first but you get used to it
Does it have Apple CarPlay ability?
No. I wish it did
It's basically a lexus version of the prius V
Just the prius I wouldn’t say the prius V tho that things the bigger prius.
@@LetsDriftMedia the prius V had stock lowering springs
More like a premium version of the first generation Toyota Auris Hybrid.
Making some real money now huh..
