Toyota Corolla Cross Hybrid [Genting Hill Climb] - How Does it Fare? | YS Khong Driving
Вставка
- Опубліковано 15 сер 2024
- As usual, our viewers were asking how the Corolla Cross would handle the Genting Hill Climb, so we borrowed one from our friendly Toyota dealer Unitedstar Corporation in Aman Suria and took it up.
As usual, the Cross hybrid handles the corners very well, but like most hybrids, the electric motor ran a bit breathless near the top; anyway, do remember the Cross hybrid was primarily made to provide excellent fuel efficiency, and it does that very well.
Do enjoy the video, and let us have your comments below.
That is what i like about your car reviews sir, you put the vehicle to a test that i never seen before. Here in the Philippines where most of the car reviewers just talks about features, design and some lame city and cross country driving. Your youtube channel is my favorite when it comes to testing new cars, way to go sir!
Yes all our reviewers in PH doesn't really test the full capabilities of the car. That's why I really like uncle's reviews.
Kabayan! haha I here too for YS Kong drive test!
oo kaya hindi ako satisfied sa mga review nila.. i always watch ys at iba pang genting tester din.. dito talaga masusubukan and i remember driving my daihatsu terrios way back 15years ago kung hindi ako nagkakamali.. makupad pero nakarating naman from point A to B without hassle.

I finally got my TCC 2 weeks ago and it was worth the 6 months wait. I drove to Seri Iskandar and the journey was a mix of highways and jalan kampung. Very good handling and good fuel consumption. Managed to drive there and back to Petaling Jaya with just a bit more than half tank of fuel. I drove mostly abt 90 - 120km/h and I managed to reach 150km/h with ease. I've seen some ppl commented that it is underpowered - to me it depends on your purpose of buying the vehicle. If you are an aggressive driver who wants power all the time - don't buy this car! If you like driving and know when to cruise and when to push it, budget conscious and value comfort & safety - then go for this! It's also a good way to help protect the environment - less carbon emissions. A very good investment indeed. 🤩👍
i believe potential buyers hold up buying Hybrid cars mainly because of the cost of battery maintenance esp after the warranty has ended. If the battery is made affordable and it is available for change or repair in the open market on top of Service centre, I believe it can attract more potential buyers.
@@Edwin-fk4yy Agree.. I bought TCCH coz it's Toyota - tried and tested technology. I also took up the 2 years extended warranty which mean I'll be worry free for at least 10 years LOL
I cancel hrv and booked TCCH because of its superior handling and safety. Not to mention the fuel efficiency.
@@roslibinisnin7971 believe me! You will not regret it.. I've been using it 3 weeks now and my fuel comsumption averages abt 18km/l. And believe me when I say that I am not a slow driver LOL.. I speed when I can safely do so but still the fuel economy is superb 👌
@@suzanis nice..i already place a booking for this car..only problem have a waiting period for 2-3 month but way better than hrv waiting period that can take to a year..
I respect someone who really knows how to drive! I would like sit next to you Uncle! Salam From Turkiye
Salam! Thank you for supporting our little channel.
Hi guys, I want to update you all on the power output of the Toyota Corolla Cross Hybrid 1.8L on Genting hill climb for normal people. Previously I was worried that the car won't have enough power to climb to Genting Highlands as it's a route I drive often, sometimes, fully loaded.
I now have 4000km on this car and I did multiple trips up genting hill, fully loaded (4 adults + luggage) with no issues whatsoever. I can easily maintain 40-60km/h going up hill with power to spare. Not once have I seen the battery go down below 4/8 bars climbing (starting from 6/8 bars of battery power).
Only if you drive like uncle Khong with the pedal pressed all the way down the entire way up will you see the battery not able to sustain the eboosts. That's not how mere mortals like us drive. Therefore, I do not think there's any stretch of road in peninsular Malaysia that this car will struggle to drive.
Averages 5.0L/100km going uphill then gliding back down, even when fully loaded. Normal efficient city driving is 4.3L/100km. Efficient highway driving (KL to Penang) I can do 3.9L/100km. Worst case scenario driving, like super short trips (lots of warm up cycle), short uphill and downhill driving is 5.7L/100km.
P/s: a bit of an update. I was in a hurry and raced up Genting (as fast as I can) recently with about 200kg payload (including myself). E-boosts did run out in the last part around chin swee temple. I wasn’t able to sprint past about 60~70 km/hr when the engine was at max output. So the PWR indicator was not able to hit maximum i.e 12 o’clock position; it was only able to hit 10-11 o’clock position with the pedal bottomed out.
I still love this car and think the limitation is arbitrary for all but the most extreme driving cases. That is, high speed full pedal hill climbing with a heavy load.
Thank you for sharing: there you go guys, a user review.
can it overtake other car in highspeed on highway let say around 140-150kmh? or even genting with 80-90kmh? because im interested on this TCCH, and thot that hybrid is fuel efficient and have more torque so it supposedly can overtake car with ease. i will use it in the city for daily usage thats why need torque to cilok2. and weekend will go from kajang to kemaman fast around 140-150kmh. is this car for me? if not can you suggest compact suv that suits me? thank you sir.
@@freiazlana9510 I don’t think this car would suit you. The car has a hard speed limiter of 160km/hr.
Due to synergy drive with a smaller atkinson engine and CVT transmission, high speed torque is limited. Acceleration is very fast from 0-60km but after that it takes time to build speed.
Never tried genting at 80-90km but Uncle Kong certainly did drive it up at that speed.
You will lose the fuel efficiency driving the way you described. You will use 6+L/100km above 140-150km/hr.
@@siewkimng1085 love your detail explanation. Thankyou sir😊
Ah... I remember this clearly. This was my first time getting the taste of attacking corners up genting
Yes, finally able to watch Toyota Cross Hybrid went to Genting because from the day launched Toyota Hybrid until now haven't see any car journalist drive to Genting, Uncle Khong is the first person.
I didnt find the review of corolla cross hybrid like you did in Indonesia,then i found your channel and you help me make my mind,i might switch to this car as gasoline price is very high recently
Happy to hear that!
Awesome !! I was eagerly waiting for this one !!
Going uphill with Cross hybrid…Handling is not an issue but the motor is screaming and doesn’t feel like a smooth ride going uphill. It feels like a struggle. Power mode relaxes it a bit but mine being a new car overall I felt like I was pushing the motor too hard and got nervous etc. I’m surprised that you have not given any neg feedback on this.
You must of course realize the max power is measured at a relatively high engine rpm. You can stipl chug up the hill slowly if you want.
@@YSKhongDriving thanks for the response. So, you really don’t think there is anything negative about this car’s uphill drive? Even on a regular road it takes a bit of time to get to a smoother drive. Do you think this issue will get better as the motor gets more km? Perhaps I feel it stronger because it is brand new?
Masta enjoying every corner taken, mantul tu masta 😁
So happy to see Nathan back on the channel…:)
Who is Nathan if I may ask?
Your drove really fast oooo... superb.. like racing...
After GHPO, seems like battery dry of juice and runs on mainly engine power. The handling seems fun anyway.
Thanks Uncle YS Khong for the test drive
Sedated? Uncle was going 90-100 consistently uphill. Fast enough imho. Cars overtaken were the slow ones due to truly under powered la I think.
it's quite good car and it's still fast enough
Thanks uncle for your review, been waiting for this for so long. Btw uncle can I ask whether you recommend to change the stock Toyo tyres to have better handling? Or it it good enough already
Stock tyres are good enough.
@@YSKhongDriving Thanks Uncle!
They heard you, 😂 that screeching sound is quite scary for Perodua owner, bcoz they r driving sampan on the road😂
try HRV RS pulak uncle...
Uncle Khong, thank you so much for doing this drive with the hybrid version. As I suspected the car will rely solely on the ICE after the battery juice runs out.
But seems like it can still climb the last part slowly. Hopefully it won’t slow down to a crawl when fully loaded. 😂
very nice driving for expert racer ya uncle ys
the engine and cvt sound really mengaum from start to the top. 🤣🤣🤣
My mother just bought Toyota cross hybrid.
It is a good car with excellent comfort, marvellous fuel consumption and good hybrid technology
The cons are when idling and the moment engine takes over, it is very noisy like a lorry.
Secondly the infotainment system is near to worst. Example, when u are using map and wants to enter a junction, once u turn on the signal, the 360 camera pops out and u cannot even turn back to maps without switching off the signal.
The infotainment system is a garbage when the car is moving. U cannot do anything. Toyota blocks it in the name of safety. Kudos to Honda for not doing that. The sound system sucks. Lastly when u are not wearing seat belt the alarm sounds like an ambulance siren
It good enough as daily car
But I chose Corolla Altis Sedan hehe
Very fair comment esp U have reminded ppl on the primary obj of a Hybrid vehicle!
Was abit more interested in the new HR-V RS eHEV. Went to showroom for test drive but get reply from SA says now all SC in malaysia didn’t provide a test drive unit for hybrid. So, am interested on how does it perform under the hand of master sifu.
Not the fastest but the best ride. We can cross out it from Genting hill climb check list!
good review uncle,this time around drive sedately in a very sedate suv
Hi Uncle, what do you think about Toyota Cross and Subaru XV ?
Yes pls uncle...TCC vs SXV
Both are great vehicles. The XV costs a bit more, but has AWD. The Cross is perhaps more fuel efficient, and has a bit more boot space. Difficult choice, but either one is a good pick.
Wow, you really enjoyed the handling on this one.
Which would you prefer, this or the cx30, in terms of NVH, comfort, and handling?
The CX30 has a very good chassis, and is more powerful, plus has a 6 speed auto, but of course costs more.
TNGA 🤩
Uncle Khong, one day hope you can take up the Camry hybrid for comparison, I can offer my 2015 car 🤭
Hi uncle! May i ask between petrol and hybrid version of this cross, which one has a better power and confidence during Genting uphill and downhill?
The petrol one sustains the power better. Uphill, the battery can run out and then you only have the engine. This is common across most hybrids. Downhill, the hybrid does a lot better.
Hello uncle which one better this one or hrv turbo
If you dtiving uphill,what gear to be used? D or B? Thanks
We can use all of the gears.
@@YSKhongDriving when you say "all gears" , Reversing uphill in a long journey is ridiculous...
Can feel like roller coaster, driving this car fast 😂
Suspension Too Soft Macam Duduk Sampan
"sedate driving" lol 😂
Thanks for driving the hybrid uphill!
Btw please test Nissan Kicks e-power
Uncle, can you comment the difference feeling between ECvt ini Hybrid vs 7 Speed CVT in regular CC? You tested both on Genting. Any comments? Which one is better is one drive quite aggressive.
The Cross hubrod and normal Cross have the same cvt
So fast!🔥
Khong, which model should i get? Corolla Cross Hybrid or 1.8V? Difference is only few thousands but not sure if i should get the hybrid... Personally i thought fuel consumption is not a priority
If fc is not the priority, the 1.8V is good enough. It is a very nice SUV. And there is a current offer that is good. Do send me a whatsapp at +6016 3350609
Uncle Khong, between Corolla Cross Hybrid and HRV eHEV, which one would be a better choice?
It depends on you really. Both run different systems - the Toyota system is well proven and reliable; the Honda features the iMMD system which gets more power and is a newer system. The HRV is B segment while the Cross is more C segment. Either one is just as good, so ot comes down to brand or preference for the looks.
The older ones would gravitate towards the Cross while the younger ones like the HRV looks.
I'm still confuse about the total combined Power & Torque output... How much?
The combined power and torque is not a simple total of both.
Good morning Uncle Khong, is there any possibilities to do a Genting drive in a Hyundai Ioniq 5 or maybe Tesla Model 3?
If you have one, maybe, hahaha.
Can review full load with passenger n full luggage.....normal for family to drive up genting with full load....Thanks
I’ll test this when I get the car… don’t think Uncle Khong will do super slow fully loaded drives lol. I estimate when fully loaded the car can do 50 km/h.
Hi.... Thank you for the video
i have questions what about if i use gear "B" while going up hills or mountain is good or no?!! Or i have to put it in "D" ? What better "D" or "B" ?!
You can use B anytime.
B mode is for downhill. It is to prevent the traction battery from overcharging as braking downhill charges the battery.
Handling aspect, comparing this with CX5, which one is better?
Both are very close to each other.
Hi uncle, is it cross hybrid faster than both cross gr sport and standard cross...???
You buy the hybrid for the additional fuel economy, but yes, the hybrid is a bit faster than the non-hybrid
Sir hrv s spec genting climb pls...
Hi Uncle YS, in terms of overall performance, which fared better? The X70 AWD or this Cross hybrid?
The two are designed for very different objectives; each has its good and bad points, so it is up to the buyer eventually.
Hi uncle, I’m curious between Hrv rs hev and Corolla cross hev which one has more power climbing hill full load?
About the same
Thank you uncle😁😁😁.
Interesting vid.. hmm nm…. Anyway thanks for the discount code..
How does torsion beam perform in cornering compared to multilink
I suppose watching the video or driving on this road yourself would be the best way to judge for yourself.
Do u know if the Corolla cross and Corolla cross hybrid engines are port or direct injection? Thank you
I will check.
Port la. Toyota use old and reliable engine tech
Not to be fast everyday...My Victim for the day... Hahaha
uncle, what type of holder camera/phone your using ? want to buy same as u..
Mine is a tailor-made holder.
What is the fuel efficiency that you got during this full power uphill? Just curious
It was about 10 lit/100 km. Not bad, actually.
yang passenger tu senyap ja 😂
just finish the Kia EV6, and watch this... this look like slow mo.. dude
Uncle, i don't know how fast , please mention also what is yr speed when it look very fast. When u takes the corners and all. I want to imagine if i drive that fast later on. Thanks
Please drive safely, at your own pace. That is one of the reasons we do not tell you the speed. And some parts of the videos may have been sped up for dramatic effect.
what is that "tak tak tak" sound ?
Must be a key or something loose in the car.
How long you can drive with full tank ?
Depends on how hard and how fast you want to go
@@YSKhongDriving in your case how long you drove ?
I know the question no body wants to answer? Is the hybrid worth it or no ?
I wonder why Toyota didn't change to ECB and Lithium Ion battery. Can someone shed some light? Lithium ion is more expensive to change.
Toyota have found that the current system runs very well and has high reliability so they just keep on refining. However I hear they are starting to change to Lithium-ion
@@YSKhongDriving Thanks sir. Even SA didn't know the reasons.
@@YSKhongDriving And the NiMH is better in the cold, Uncle, esp. where I live when it snows.
Toyota road going cars awd system sucks. But their land cruiser types are a different matter.
The Cross is not AWD, by the way.
4:52 handling very well, and not breaking... mean one thing... it is too slow 😅
Overtake lots of toyata hilux, so toyota hilux is very underpower than cross then by your definition
What will you choose between this cross and hrv?
Both cars have qualities that will appeal to different segments of people.
Those who prefee power will go for hrv, while those who want comfort, quiet, and durability will go for the cross
It's not a good handling but uncle sure can take it like peanut
Thats old there is now 2.0 cc
Full throttle most of the time
when i tried the 1.8 non hybrid( not up genting but like housing area hills near the showroom near my town), the corolla cross feels abit, ... lethargic compared to maybe the older 1.8 hrv; need to press it more i think if u go up genting. feels like a more posh bezza trying to go uphill. corolla cross handling is more on the sensitive side so i can imagine how it feels seeing abam Khong's steering wheel moving.
With any vehicle, you meed to put more gas on if you want more power. If you look at the engine power figures, it always mentions the power at a certain RPM.
Im driving a cross v spec at the moment and i also interested in the hybrid
*Meanwhile me also lowkey want to sit in uncle khong car* xD
How about the power? Most prople said it is underpowered
Why is the purpose of having a passenger there and he's not communicating with the driver at all.. 😅
He was there to enjoy the ride.
Soon a hrv genting drive ? Haha
Soon, I hope.
Cvt noise 🤣
Actually the cvt was not noisy on this one
