Acceleration 0-180 kmh
Top Speed German Autobahn
The CVT gearbox is just wonderful when cooperating with a naturally aspirated engine.
Best looking wagon of its class!
Everything looks great here. The fuel consumption at high speed is also normal. all cars will drop the fuel consumption above 90 km/h . Diesel with high torque at low RPM fit better for higher speed above 120km/h. It is still better than any regular gasoline engine including 1.0L Turbo. But for 180HP engines, nothing even close except some Diesel. Win drag is velocity squared. I can get easily 3.5L/100 Km when using my radar cruise control following trucks or bus in front of me at close to 100km/h. Once the truck is gone, It drop to 4.5L/100km. Diesel car also get the highest fuel efficiency at about 90km/h. The gear is already at the highest, torque is just enough to defeat win drag. The main benefit is in stop-and-go traffic when nonhybrid including diesel barely can get 8-10L/100km, hybrid can get 5-6l/100km without any effort and good torque in city traffic. With problematic Diesel emission system, hybrid is often cheaper to run, to own, and to resale.
Are you sure about resale? The battery pack could be an issue. Lifetime 10 years, % downgrade after 5 years is at least 20-30%
I'm so confused on what to buy. Sick of diesels with all adblue, scr, egr problems..
Afraid of battery's. But I believe in Toyota reliability
@@luckystrike656 i am sure you never have hybrid Toyota. 15 years unlimited mileage in UK/Ireland, 10 years the rest of Europe. The battery does not drop just keep going and the mpg is still 99.999% after 10 years of you maintain it well. Battery suddenly die in very hot weather like FL, Arizona, California roughly 11 years 200k miles but much longer if you park it in garage. NiMh battery has 0 fire risk unlike Lithium. Recently I got an offer from a dealer for my 2016 Auris at 130k km for €1000 more than I paid in 2019 at 90k km. Yes, the resale value of hybrid is 2x than most Diesel and EV. Because it is not disposable, €2350 brand new battery installed from dealership if you are worry after warranty expired in 10 years unlimited km. You can forget replacing battery in EV like Zoe or Leaf, it cost more than the car value after 8 years warranty period. In winter battery range drop 40% or more because no free heat from engine. Diesel is death for small amd passanger cars. Only for SUV or Truck like Land Cruiser or Hillux.
@@rondhole no, I did not owned a hybrid Toyota or any other hybrid car yet.
Had petrol cars when I was young and now I drive diesel for last 12 years.
I do from 3 to 4.000km/month and averaging 4.75-5.5l/km without trying and going always over speed limits.
But as the diesel cars struggled to meet the co2 requirements the anti pollution systems became to complex and not reliable.
So the savings in fuel in the end goes to repairs.
Anyhow, I owned several Toyota diesel cars in the past and know that Toyota is the real deal in terms of reliability but I find it very hard to believe that the battery don't have any degradation.
Anyhow, the Rav4 is for now in my eyesight or maybe, just maybe the new civic hybrid.
The corolla is to small side...
@@luckystrike656 In terms of reliability for hybrid systems. Toyota is still no.1, the Newer Honda system is much better than the older AMI Honda system but it is too early to say unlike 20 years' records in Toyota. The NiMh battery uses LaNi8 electrodes, very durable (Lanthanum is rare earth material but cheap because it is easily available). The Lithium battery also shows it is as reliable as the NiMh because Toyota only charges up to 80% and discharged only up to 30% of the actual capacity. If you are in Europe, Corolla Touring Sport, longer than Civic has a very good MPG. RAV4 is also good but you may need to wait for months to get one. Once you have a hybrid, make sure you always turn the AC on, because it keeps the humidity and temperature down as part of the HV battery cooling system. If you park in a garage or the weather is mild, you may never need to replace the HV battery for the entire life of the car. Heat is the main issue in any battery. You can see the 15 years warranty/unlimited miles in UK/Ireland with 80% cloudy days yearly. In Germany/France/Swiss, we only have 10 years warranty but many used Toyota hybrids are still in their original battery even after 18 years such as 2004 Prius or Lexus that still roaming around like roaches with a half million miles or more. All the safety systems, including radar cruise control, pedestrian detection, road sign recognition, apple car play, and LED headlights are standard in all Corolla. Toyota makes the safety features standard since 2019, something that we still need to pay for in other cars including Golf, Civic, and Benz C class. I typically get 4.5L/100 Km in Autobahn ~ 120km/h and 3.4L/100 Km if I follow behind a semi-truck or bus at 90Km/h.
@@rondhole thanks for all the info, very much appreciated.
I've set in a corolla hatchback and it was way to small and low, don't know if the touring is different, hope so.. I would definitely have to adjust my driving style, but to go behind a truck for better consumption sounds a bit crazy, sorry.. I don't want to become a slave to the car consumption. I work as a sales agent so As long as I am within speed limits in mixed driving of 40 highway 130kmh 30 suburban 90kmh and 30 city it can be maintained below 6l average I'm happy.
Maybe there is a possibility to rent one for a week to try it out, sound like the best option.
Tnx again for all the info
In the name of health and safety 190kmh in a Corolla estate is fast enough for me. I have fond memories of Corolla estates from my younger years on the road back in the 80`s and they were always good to go on a motorway or a country road.
3:18 same annoying sound from the plate on the trunk door. Placed some glue under it...now is perfect ; )
Great video, the LED headlights are very bright, but that shame this car has no coming home/leaving home lights
Correct me if I’m wrong but I think I saw it in action somewhere in this car but only in the top spec ADVANCE or whatever.
Excellent test. It will be very reliable.
In city traffic it is very efficient
Nice video! Nice car! Overall nice review! I really enjoyed it!
In the future can you make the new 2021 model with 1.8 l engine or Kia Ceed with 1.0 120 hp?
consumption is so high performance is not bad but that cvt feeling never gets exiting
Did you forget to show the area beneath the cover in the boot
I actually like this car…reliable…good interiors and not too expensive…but I must say that the cvt is not a good gearbox…not for reliability but because with it the car feels like a big scooter…still it’s a good car…anyway have a nice day 😄
Hybrid doesn’t use the conventional cvt gearbox. It’s with planetary gear system mated to the electric motor. There is no belt pulley system in this car.
Your POV style is better
hmm, it pulls so so linear even over 120-130 kmh....interesting ( maybe because of CVT?), not sure tho...must be something with the way that the engine is tuned, seems to give a weird sense of "smoothness" due to this fact
Ist high consumption at high way
all cars will drop the fuel consumption above 90 km/h . Diesel with high torque at low RPM fit better for higher speed above 120km/h. It is still better than any regular gasoline engine including 1.0L Turbo. But for 180HP engines, nothing even close except some Diesel. Win drag is velocity squared. I can get easily 3.5L/100 Km when using my radar cruise control following trucks or bus in front of me at close to 100km/h. Once the truck is gone, It drop to 4.5L/100km.
@@rondhole Sorry to say but not all cars will drop the fuel consumption above 90km/h in fact cars can or will be more efficient when driving on the highway due to the continues speed its driving at. And i noticed that with my Golf 1.4 tsi 122hp on the High way and i get more mileage/km out of my gas tank that driving city roads only.
@@CiroDiMaRzio12304 obviously. In highway 90-100km/h will still give you the most efficient too. You are already in top gear and cruise speed. Hybrid is also not as efficient in city with traffic, it is just can go with EV mode more often below 70km/h without stoping. With stop and go, hybrid will not be as efficient as constant speed too.
Will you ever bring a hybrid Camry?
The Camry is not sold in some part of Europe
Toyota doesn't sell Camry in Gemrany for some reason (they did in 2019 and 2020).
@@sic22l well that’s probably because is there too much competition since there are 6 different brand of manufacturers that produce sedans…so maybe it wasn’t convenient
7,1/100km... in a TOYOTA hybrid? WTF have you been doing with that car??? :D
Driving on the highway. also this particular hybris is not very efficient, it uses as much fuel as 2.5 hybrid in Toyota Camry which is a bigger car.
@@sic22l it is, if you know how to drive it.6.1 on highway, 4.3 in the city with a gr Sport touring 2.0l
@@AlexuuMetaaL Camry can do that too if you hypermile it but it's bigger, heavier and more powerful.
@@sic22l power’s got almost nothing to do with the consumption performance on Toyota’s dynamic force engines, as it would normally have on any other engine. The Camry’s engine is a 2.5 218 hp that’s got the same basis as the 2.0 engine from the Corolla, but has got a bigger stroke, hence the bigger displacement. But that only translates to a bigger source of power that feeds the electric motors, so they can work more, and the thermal engine less. That translates to same consumption almost. Weight is the game-changer, and the way the car is driven.
Toyota’s engine technology is very very different from anything on the market. They came with it in 1997, and they are currently on the 4th generation of these marvelous machines. Is very hard to fully comprehend and appreciate them, at their true full potential.
@@AlexuuMetaaL Then why the 1.8 variant easily uses 1-1,5l less?
This review is not realistic. In reality you will never driver 100km constantly. An this interruption are those segments where the hybrid system is gaining mileage for you.
Why does the rev meter wiggle so much?
CVT 😵
@@ShiftingGears92 that is only partially true, a real CVT would stay in the same gear ratio when cruising at a constant speed and thus the rpm will stay as steady as in a car with a normal transmission.
Toyota uses a power split device (imagine like a differential but with the output being the drive shaft, the ICE powering one wheel, one electric motor driving the other wheel and another electric motor is directly connected to the drive shaft) where the speed of one electric motor determines the speed the ICE runs at, but there is no fixed ratio that forces the rpm to stay the same. What Toyota likely does is keeping the Ice at a constant torque output but modulates the power output by changing the rpm to improve efficiency, but that also causes the rpm to fluctuate
This is my job car, and I have mondeo 2.0tdci. On 120km/h Mondeo drives better and quieter, here is on high speeds extra noise. And the engine start stop is nothing good for it. Only for city traffic
You have the 1.8 or 2.0? Also, mondeo is on a different segment. Compare it to the Focus.
Nice cruiser.
Why toyota hp are high and torque is low :p
NA engine
@@mariosierra3978 elastic engine* You can get the same results with turbo- or supercharged engines, but most manufacturers won't do the consumer this favor.
Just compare the power output with the torque.
This engine achieves 112 kW from 190 Nm = 0,589 kW/ Nm.
A Mercedes A45 (turbocharged) reaches 285 kW out of 480 Nm = 0,594 kW/ Nm.
A Honda Civic 1.5 (turbocharged) reaches 134 kW out of 240 Nm = 0,558 kW/ Nm.
A Volkswagen Golf 1.5 TSI (turbocharged), as an example of non elastic turbocharged engines, only gets 96 kW out of 200 Nm = 0,48 kW/ Nm.
A Mazda 3 2.0 G122 (naturally aspirated), as an example of non elastic naturally aspirated engines, only reaches 90 kW out of 213 Nm = 0,422 kW/ Nm.
So in fact, it doesn't matter, whether the engine is charged or not, it is only dependend on the engine design and the effort, the manufacturer is willing to deliver.
@@fwebe2871 By your math Honda S2000 has a very elastic engine becuase it produces 177kW out of 207Nm = 0,855kW/Nm. Bullshit.
@@sic22l He doesn't know what he's talking about lol. Elastic would mean it heas a wide power band. Not some bullshit kw to nm ratio.
Torque increase linearly in all naturally aspirated gasoline engine and peak at around 4000 rpm or more. Turbo have flat peak torque from 2000 to 4000 rpm. However, instant torque in hybrid at low speed in city traffict is very good, better than diesel. The Electric motor has highest torque at 1 rpm, more than 400Nm, that's why it is so beneficial driving hybrid in traffict jam.
👍〰️✔️
Über 13L bei Vollgas? Hmm das schafft meiner auch und ist BJ2007. 😂
Das ist auch weder ein Kunststück, noch der Betriebsmodus, den man für einen niedrigen Verbrauch anpeilt.
Man sieht den Effekt des Antriebs gerade dort, wo man nicht wirklich auf dem Gas steht, sprich bei niedrigen Geschwindigkeiten.
klar das schaffen viele Autos, die Frage ist nur wie lange man Vollgas gibt und was im normalen Verkehr so passiert.
Auf der Autobahn bei Vollgas ist es halt auch einfach nur ein 2.0L Benzinmotor und das wars, wenn man nur Autobahn fährt ist dass das falsche Auto.
Is this in Germany?
Yes of course 👍
@@nightpovcars7021 What do German people think of Japanese cars and do they like them? Do they prefer it over German cars?
@@mohammadshahin8758
Good: reliability, easy to work on.
Bad: expensive parts, thin steel, thin paint, bad rust problems, bad road noise, generally low comfort.
@@moving-stills In the Middle East it is more popular because spare parts are cheap
@@mohammadshahin8758 Corolla is now no.3 defeating Benz A class. Only behind traditional minded Golf and Octavia. The compact Yaris is now no.2 sale, just behind Peugeot 208. Germans are logical and environmentalist, they love hybrid concept because EV is too much hassle with the infrastructure today. With 10 years warranty for any Toyota, they go nuts too. Toyota reputations in reliability, more fun with full independence suspension, standard advance pedistrian detection, radar cruise, etc, reallu grab their attentions. Even not all Golf in 2019 comes witb safety standard that high
suzuki swice look beter in front more agresiv
Consumption over 160👎😅
Only fools driving at constant speed 160km/h and think about fuel effeciency.
This car isnt made having autobahn on mind but countries with limited 120-130 speeds on mind and city driving.
Diesel is made for high way speed because of high torque to overcome wind drag at low rpm. There is no regular gasoline engine more efficient than Diesel at the same power above 100 km/h. Hybrid is still way more efficient than any pure gasoline engine with the same power. In city, it is 2-3x more efficient especially in traffict jam with AC on all the time. Unfortunately, most people drive in city per year more than highway and make Diesel generally more unreliable with chocking emission controls. If you like troublefree diesel, get it pre 2008 without DPF filter and complicated Bluetec system.
Even when I live in Germany, i don't like diesel because higher tax, unreliable, any glitch go to limp mode. Besides that driving at around 120km/h or 70mph is much more relaxing and safe fuel, even with diesel. The effeciency in diesel is also peak at 90-100km/h not 160. Driving in 160 makes us braking often and any mistake in highway will be fatal, no matter which car we drive.
Shitty small gas tank and consumption are not so small/low
co za syf w samochodzie. Do prezentacji chociaż warto przetrzeć te plastiki. nie lubie nie dbalstwa
Toyota have several problems,low number of engine choice,no diesel one,speed limit of higher power cars ,relative shitty design..., everything they have what would cutt their sale in EU
