People that prefer reliability don't want turbos. The future for cars is depressing.
The 2GR-FE was a good, low worry engine.
this isn't 1980. How many decades of reliability is it going to take?
Toyota's new turbo engines bypass the turbo at light throttle and operate normally-aspirated. Reliability is mainly an issue for drivers with a lead foot.
@@Xander1SheridanI love Toyota, but you seem to be a bot or simply Toyota fanboy. They have ruined their reputation with the new tundra and new Tacoma.
@@peacefulmind8991 could've happened with the time they had a mass problem with frame issues with their trucks in the past. Could've happened with the gas getting stuck in their cars as well. Engine issues with those 2 aren't gonna kill them.
I am a retired Toyota/Lexus tech.
Best engine ever built from Toyota has to be the 4.7 lt in the GX470
The 4AFE in the older Corollas was bulletproof as well.
5.7 in the Tundra is almost indestructible.
Toyota needs to develop a refined version for the Lexus lineup.
its refined its just extra insolation for lexus
The new engines often come out in Lexus, and whichever ones are simple and reliable then go into Toyotas.
@notsodelusional
Will never, ever happen as long as Akio Toyota is in the mix.
Give me a 1J in the rav4
Lexus all EVs
While I am really happy that Mazda, Toyota, and Subaru want to keep ICE vehicles on the road, I really miss having NA V6s in cars like the Highlander and ES 350
One more year a V6 in the ES Lexus and I think I’m going to spring for it I like the idea of the next gen ES WITH the new technology but damn that V6 is sweet
Thank your government! 👍
don't know where you are getting this from but Subaru absolutely is not and you really don't know japanese brand to say this I had a mitsu evo IX and a subaru sti here's what japan do they don't work on their engines at all for years (except toyota) and drag them as long as emissions regulations allow it then they simply drop cars forever wether they sold well or not does not matter, mitsubishi is a dead brand subaru has killed the sti and soon to come the wrx and many other models in 2025, suzuki will remove the swift sport, jimny and others in 2025 most diesel and petrol engines are gone in Europe you can only buy HEV PHEV and EV now oh yeah Subaru stops the legacy next year too again you're clearly uninformed if you think they are keeping ICE they already removed them..just not in your market YET but it's coming for sure another thing all ICE engines left are downsized and lose power you can forget the "new year more power" era that died around 2021 now you only get worse for more money, in Europe I noticed that begin of 2023 and took a few hours studying the actually sold 2021-2024 models you're not ready for what is coming in NA they give no warning they don't say it publicly mainstream car coverage won't talk about it as it's against the zero emission mandate but half the available engines and car will disappear after 31 dec 2024 it happened already to us in 2021-2022-2023-2024 the Cupra Formentor in 2023 had 8 engines available up to 390hp in 2024 there's only two a 150hp HEV (for a sporty brand LOL) and an PHEV with 270hp or something don't care PHEV = EV don't even think about buying one
@@jonathanratliff4780 in the same boat as you lol
@@ytj22 Fr emission standards have ruined everything
We don't want this. The A25A has been a great engine.
Don't say we. Full majority I mean everyone who does live outside the internet has no issues with change.
We’ve had 3 A25A vehicles, not a single engine issue. About 90,000 km across them.
A25 had issues in the beginning too
2.5 is fine but they want to keep downsizing
Quite ignorant take. Change can be bad.
Just Make a station wagon
Move to Europe.
The Crown Signia is essentially a station wagon.
SUVs are so boring to drive.
Crossovers are just station wagons with a different name. 🙃
there are millions of toyota corolla station wagons in europe lol.
That Volvo he mentioned at approx 4:30 will be gorgeous trash at 70k miles. Just like BMW, Mercedes, Audi, Rolls, Rover, ......
Volvo makes some of the most beautiful cars. Unfortunately, most of us could never afford to maintain them outside the warranty period
@chrisjmiller6 Agreed. And the people that can afford it don't care. They simply buy a different vehicle. It's why Hoovie has an endless supply of money-pits. Absolutely stunning cars, but mechanically trash😔

Kirk, I spent 2/3 of the video trying to figure out what the Corolla X was. 🤣 I want the next RAV4 Hybrid to hit 40+ mpg with 240-250 hp to allow for 3,500 lbs towing. I think we will see a 2.5 Hybrid system comparable to the Highlander/Crown/Camry for the foreseeable future. 🤩🤩
GR Camry 400 hp 😍
I want a GR sienna with removable 2nd row seats.
And have towing capacity for a GR Corolla
@@greensleeves8095 I just want a Sienna Prime with 80km of usable EV range, so much room for activities and I can do all my daily commuting with post work shopping stops on battery!
@@greensleeves8095it’s a van. You want a race van.
@@geoffreymak000 Hey, the Previa Alltrac SC was an AWD, mid-engined, supercharged minivan. That's supercar recipe my boy.
Well, all I can say is if the Turbo is their decision say good-bye to 500k mile engines (when taken care of).
The new rav4 going to have the same engine and transmission from 2025 Camry.
It already does. 2.5 L eCVT
That 2.0 turbo sounds like a great engine for a future MR2…. Please Toyota, make another MR2!!!
It will go inside Higlander as well ;) Makes sense there ... said noone ever.
The MR2 will still be a collaboration with another automaker because Toyota said they won’t make sports car alone despite all of us thinking that
It's not a performance orientated engine.
@@chezzyperson3339 Yeah agreed! I still think a Toyota Yamaha Daihatsu collaboration needs to happen for the MR2. A turbo Yamaha liter bike engine in the back of a stretched out Daihatsu K car with a Toyota body using their new design language (I don't care, the new Prius looks good, there I said it!). Choke it to high heaven with a tiny cat and McDonald's straw exhaust to pass emissions then offer an "off road only" GR option exhaust like Nissan did with the reskinned Z and Nismo exhaust.
Folks who prance around town can careless about the exhaust, folks who want to go fast will do the upgrade, just like we did in the '90s an '00s!
Wrong
if i were to drive a RAV4 i would have to wait until 2029 to avoid engine recalls

Small displacement turbo ICE or hybrid. Yeah, no thank you.
They need a compact pickup to compete with the Ford Maverick and Hyundai Santa Cruz
Too much turbo derangement syndrome, I have 2,7 turbo Chevy which has out performed what a lot of experts predicted, many fleet operators repory over 200,000 miles with no problem, confident that Toyota can build a reliable turbo engine
You are absolutely correct My friend 💯. Some people don't want to accept the Truth online.
When a turbo gasoline motor is built to diesel quality(and cost) they can last - can't skip oil changes
All these tiny turbo motors in 4000 pound vehicles is going to be a disaster long term. These engines are not going to be healthy with 100k km on them Imo.
They need the turbos to extract the thermal efficiency from the exhaust. You can get more boost than back pressure easily at lower cruising speeds and with DI you can run stoich so there is no FE loss as long as you're not demanding more torque than needed to accelerate reasonably
The '18-24 Camry got better real world fuel economy than the Accord with almost the same performance.
The theoretical efficiency advantage of turbos mostly shows up on EPA tests, not with real people driving.
@@0HOON0 That's because most of the time the engine is off-boost and is not benefitting from the reduced pumping loss caused by the positive intake manifold pressure. In a hybrid the engine operates at a different load point than what's required so it could run at just slightly positive boost to fully take advantage of the efficiency gains.
I agree, I have the 2020 rav4 and it lacks power on the street(non hybrid model). I recently got a 24 tacoma and the turbo on that 4 cylinder really makes the truck move easily on the street. On my commute they have similar mpg, I'm getting between 20 and 22 city on the rav while 16 to 20 on the taco.
A turbo generator could turn exhaust waste heat into electricity to further charge the traction battery, helping to later accelerate, reducing fuel consumption and lowering emissions further, in addition to brake regeneration which does the same.
Will Toyota use eTurbos?
This will give you power from the exost, and give the engine power at low revs.
Not good for engines and reliability, that's what happened to the V6 Turbo trucks.
@@petera5560Toyota are going all EV's.
The next phase is to standardize with as few engines as posible.
This is because you free up engineers to build EV's.
So, the V6 wil be rare on a Toyota in the future.
Exciting news; however, I'm more looking forward to the cross cooperation between Toyota & Mazda. I would love to see the 1.5L turbo with 250+ horsepower and being a hybrid in the new redesigned CX-5.
Totally agreed, and a real JDM Supra using a turbo version of Mazda's I-6 with a Yamaha head.
they all need plug in hybrids. And I don't know why they are limiting power still. They can do 300 hp with great gas mileage now.
Thoughts: Turbos allow equal output with smaller displacement, slower average engine speed, less frictional and pumping losses, keep the average RPM closer to optimum BMEP. Basic stuff. Turbochargers have been continuously refined over about the last 60 years. I’d say turbochargers don’t add any excessive stress to any engine unless at 90% to full power, in other words, infrequently.
Hybrid and PHEV drivetrains will potentially extend ICE reliability and longevity by up to half again. (Example: ONLY ~30% of my miles in my PHEV are propelled by the ICE, and virtually no miles in stop and go / start stop situations.)
Yes turbo engines CAN be engineered for reliability but you don't want to see the price tag on it.
Toyota currently does a pretty good job of reliability at a decent price. I'm not convinced they could do that on turbo engines.
Until you a buy a new tundra
Well said. That is true. This comment should be pinned.
Understand your points.
Couple thoughts in response: Longevity today is often dictated by regulators. How long can you get spare parts - including replacement batteries? How long is it legal to register the vehicle? How much does it cost to dispose of batteries and other toxic parts that are no longer usable?
The laws of physics, Toyota and consumers don't get to decide modern product longevity - bureaucrats do.
The problem is that dealing with today's economy regs require lighter engine reciprocating and rotating masses, which means lighter pistons, valves, connecting rods, crankshafts etc,. Whereas for turbos, you need these parts beefed up which makes them heavier. That means overall your 2024 turbo engine has lighter thinner parts compared to the beefier parts within a '90s engine even if the '90s engine is normally aspirated. Second issue is to improve fuel economy we are using 0w oils instead of 5w or 10w, which also causes oil to burn off faster. Third is that to reduce engine friction, piston rings are thinner, looser, which increases fuel escaping to the oil crankcase during the compression stroke, causing fuel dilution. Note that oil is already light weight. All three work and cascade their effects together. A turbo engine has higher heat which burns lighter oil faster while increased compression from boost forces more fuel through the thinner piston rings into the evaporating lighter oil.
So buy the current one asap, got it.
Just bought a V6 Lexus for that reason afraid they're going to phase them out for nothing but hybrids and turbo fours
Well said lol.
Japanese engineering, best of the best.....don't worry.
If it is build in the Usa, Toyota Plano.....worry!
Wait till it shows up at TMMC Cambridge
Best of all worlds!
I love hearing any Toyota news.....But the GR Corolla was the last sports car news in late 21. I hope we get something soon. Maybe discontinue the Supra put the Gr 1.6 in the GR86 bring in that new SFR and the MR2. But it sounds like a Celica is coming shortly. I am on the sports car hunt and would like to get some news soon.
After toyota unveiled the new 2.4 liter turbo I don't see a need for a new 2l turbo. No need for a 1.5 turbo either. Turbo+hybrid technology is extremely complex and when something fails and it will, it will be an arm and a leg to fix.
At the same time, we're talking toyota so they'll probably be fine.
The 2.4l won't be able to meet euro 7 requirements coming in 2026-7 so they need to replace these tdf engines
Ironically hybrid is what saved the V35 engine from blowing up in hybrid Tundras/Sequoias because the engine runs less often. In hybrid cars the ICE is the limiting factor for reliability.
sounds like 2.0T is only for GR vehicles
@@AndreiGrozeaif living in the past ya
New Toyo management. Hey, lets take what our brilliant predecessors created with a great core philosophy and trash all that and make crap engines. It will be a great future.
I think Toyota is underappreciating the demand for PHEVs in North America. The daily driving of the average customer will be far under the 50-70 mile range of the '25-'26 battery potential capabilities.
They understand better than the rest of the industry which is why they said they’re focusing on hybrids not EVs. However the problem for PHEVs for Toyota is battery supply for the volume of vehicles they build.
70 miles is my daily commute as is many in California
Speak for yourself. In the DC metro area rat racers regularly put 20,000 miles a year on their cars or more. That's 83 miles per workday.
These same people upset with turbos better not say ONE word when a Corolla takes 10 second to go 0-60 😂 The internet never ceases to amaze me. Everyone complains that the Corolla (And other Toyotas) have been horrible slow. Now they try to fix that and y’all complain 😂 Trust me I love my 1.8 NA 4 Banger but you don’t see me commenting “SLow, Laggy” I always see these comment on videos with corollas or Camrys with the NA engines. Everyone needs to pick a lane
Opinion of these people online doesn't matter whatsoever. Everyone is acting like Toyota has never made a turbo vehicle. Tundra has a issue sure but every other turbo engine they make is ultra reliable. People always complain when a new gen or engines comes out then few years later it's a whole different case
The 2024 Corolla runs 0 to 60 in 8.8 to 9 seconds depending on the trim.
@@0HOON0 many people would says that’s entirely too slow! I drive a 2017 Corolla so that sucker is doing like 9.7 second 😂😂 seems fast enough for me!
You get what you paid for.
I dont think the battery plant will be done by end of next year, so i am guessing the Rav4 might be introduced last quarter of 2025 or first quarter of 2026. The Rav4 will have probably 232 hp with camry hybrid system
Toyota's mistake started with V6 Turbos. They needed to switch back to an inline 6 TT. Glad that crappy V6 is biting them in their arse. This coming from a yuge yoter fanboy.
Shorter stroke but still with a turbo?? I see a tuner's dream... AKA I'm thrilled 😃😃
That Venza looks badass …
I feel as if I'm the only one who's extremely excited for these new powertrains, as im curious of what they sound like, their horsepower, and most importantly, efficiently and price ranging
FULL majority I mean everyone else have love change and new engines. It's just some people online post crazy comments
I am excited as well.
Wrong video wrong topic, but just wanted to say, the new Lexus RX is a stunningly beautiful thing. But it’s totally betrayed by its lack of a V6 option unbelievable a turbo four banger is standard in that thing.
Stop gabbing on about aesthetics and constrain comments to engineering...
3.5 V6 should still be offered . Glad I bought 2022 RX350 V6 last year. Don’t have to deal with 4cyl Buzz boxes that are $70K .
Twin turbo V6 main bearing scoring problem is a manufacturing issue, not a design flaw. That engine likely will continue in production after the fix. An inline six has lower production costs, is inherently balanced, and can fit into a truck. One turbo, not two. Toyota is being led off a cliff.
If Toyota makes them with manual transmissions, I would be very excited!
Very few people can drive a manual transmission nowadays. For the last five years, I had to drive my car into the inspection bay because most of the car inspectors cannot drive a car with a manual transmission.
@picklerix6162 I know it sucks but lately when it comes to affordable sports cars, the market demands a manual
Unless you have to drive in stop and go traffic congestion to commute to and from work or school etc
@@AaronSchwarz42 I would still drive manual regardless
It would nice to see the sienna getting a turbocharged hybrid because it’s going to get even better fuel economy and way more torque
Agree
they need to drop the bottom two for the USA. Everything should have at least the 1.5 turbo.
Look at Honda with their 1.5 turbo engines and also in Nissan rogue 1.5 turbo as well. It’s hell
@@alvinsimba734 Nissan or honda can't do something means Toyota should not move With the times and give what the actual market or people want instead should keep doing what a small set of people like you want
@@Mylifeislegendary982. lm not one of those but Toyota can look at other brands to see what they are doing and then go from there. Me personally I would get a hybrid before getting a turbo charged engine in my opinion, the way it’s going. Toyotas have been making turbos for a long time.
@@alvinsimba734 fact is simple Toyota knows what they are doing very well. These days watching video and seeing this comment section is like dealing with mother in law who acts like a hole.
I saw something elsewhere where it shows RAV4 has a better market share than F150. Sounds unbelievable to me but that may not make up for actual sales. 🤷♂️
What happens to the G16-GTS Inline-3 Turbo GR engine?
Are they going to continue with that, or is there going to be a replacement
It's staying. Their specialty GR racing engines will stick around
@@KirkKreifelsawesome news
That 2.0T (350hp?) would look good in the next GR Corolla to go against Type R’s 2litre
Bring the Crown Sport to the states and rebadge as the new Rav4.
It won’t sale as well due to having less space and less ground clearance as the current RAV4. Americans love space and height, not small hatchbacks 🚗.
The 2ZR-FXE (1.8 hybrid) had a solid run in the Prius and Corolla, but it sucks to hear they alredy can the M20 hybrid, as far as I know if only came out in 2020.
Hope they throw a 1.5 turbo hybrid in the Yaris in Corolla at least, that would be very fun.
Kirk, you absolutely nailed one thing. Something I said many years ago.
Toyota needs to make an inline 6 turbo like the B58.
This would make Toyota king of trucks if they did that.
You should make a video on just that. Companies need to hear this.
ines grenadier uses b58 . i think they had to replace plastic parts with metal because under heavy work those have been melting
Which ones are using byd's dm-i tech? These engine sizes are fully in line wirh byd's current engine sizes too.
My wife and I rented a 2024 RAV4 for a few days. I hate it. The automatic transmission is not refined at all, and its power is lacking. Going through turns and over bumps feels like I’m on a boat waving in the ocean, it’s almost nauseating. Months later we purchased a I6-turbo CX90 and it’s night and day compared to the RAV4.
Mazda is a luxury with an inline 6 turbo. Kudos to Mazda for doing the best engine design. They were smart and copied BMW. They look great too.
RAV4 is a basic economy car. For people who don’t care about luxury, driving fun.
Historically at least as to lineage, the RAV4 had been based on a gussied up Corolla, and the Highlander was essentially a gussied up Camry.. When Toyota moved to the TNGA platform, RAV4 and Highlander both shared the basics
RAV4 is actually a gussied up Camry.
This. And the Highlander used to be based on the Camry but its basically a redesigned RX with less luxury stiff and more focused on utility
@@midnitestate and, in turn, the RX was also based on the ES which was based on the Camry.
I'm onboard with the turbos. Not sure why people fear modern ones so much. Having owned a fleet of Ford diesels with the turbos, I never had any problems running them over 300k+ miles; never had a turbo issue. Imagine the torque on a boosted hybrid! I'm all in.
I'm not towing 20k pounds or racing for pinks. I just want to get to work. Turbos raise long term ownership costs and bring few benefits to the average commuter.
Also, diesel turbos tend to last longer than petrol because they don't have a traditional throttle.
Turbo diesel is not the same as non diesel Turbo engines 🤌
the twin turbo V6 is literally being recalled right now.
@user.joshua• you are perfectly correct.
@@skolarii not for the turbos specifically… not sure what point you’re trying to make here.
I do not understand why Toyota/Lexus will not use these high horsepower engines in their cars....makes no sense....for example I love the Lexus IS-350 but only 306 hp from their V-6 is way underpowered.
@@nicks1137 that’s why you buy a real IS and get a 500 with prob the best engine on the planet.
Insurance is probably why. High horsepower cars tend to be bought by people who are more likely to get into accidents. Toyota wants to stay as a low cost to insure mainstream brand. When you buy a sports car you are paying the price for other people's reckless behavior even if you were a good driver.
@@SkyWKingThat’s false. People who buy high hp cars actually are the lowest risk for accidents. They know how to drive and are enthusiasts.
It’s the low hp cars that people build up are the ones who get into accidents.
driving fun is sense of acomplishment from escapign danger and driving effciently. drivign effceintly is speeding up more on realtivly downhillish roads and before up hills at optimal fuel level and rpm . braking and steering is minimal and steady. neutral gear transmission for rolling without power.
I wonder if the next gen Mx-5 will get that NA 1.5 hybrid
A 300hp hybrid powertrain in the ES with actual F-sport suspension tuning is all I want. Come'on lexus
overweight and excessily quiet
Fwd and sport suspension is an oxymoron. It’s just gonna under steer worse than an Audi.
We have small toyota hybrid engines for decades in Europe, all very good, very reliable.
You are 💯 perfectly correct. This comment section is becoming a joke
You don't have the same fuel economy law and CAFE laws requiring 0w16/0w8 oils ... Europe and other countries still call for Xw30 weight oils which improve long term engine reliability
With turbos though? Turbos decrease reliability.
@@EverydayJ1786 we have our fuel mixed with ethanol......up to 85% in France, 15% in the Netherlands.

History repeats itself! Junky little 4cyl engines just like K-cars had due to new CAFE standards back in the early 80s.
Long time Toyota owner, I no longer trust Toyota due to falsifying crash tests and EPA tests, telling customers they could change the oil at 10k miles when these engines have low tension piston rings which have lead to early engine failure. Toyota also says the automatic transmission fluid is good for 60k miles - good luck with that myth too. Nope, Not buying a new Toyota. I’m happy with my 2016 Avalon and 2020 Land Cruiser.

Video summarized... Could be... Could be... Could be... No real info.
As someone who lives in a country (Bangladesh) where cars are (exorbitantly) taxed according to engine size, Toyota/Lexus introducing 1.5L through most of their lineup is music to my ears!
I get less & less excited for the future of these ice engines & hate to think about their reliability..
These upcoming new engines will be extremely reliable . Toyota knows what they are doing very well. Get with the times because turbos are the future and present importantly what the full Majority I mean everyone else wants these days.
Which pronouns for these cars?
I don’t trust turbos that much, especially on a tiny engine. I understand if its 3.5 Liter V6, then maybe, but a small maybe. My brother has a 1.4 Ecotec turbo in a Chevy Cruze. That Engine generates so much heat that it melted the freaking coolant reservoir and it started leaking coolant everywhere. The Turbos will force the engine to generate excess heat at the expense of reducing its lifespan. Sure, you might get more power and torque, but it’s not worth it if we speak about reliability. Naturally Aspirated Engines last longer because they dont have to be forced to produce more power. My cars engine is 120k miles and doesn’t burn oil. No turbo. I keep up with maintenance, do fluid flushes and oil changes, keep the engine breathing clean air. I don’t wait till 15000 miles to change the air filter, I do it every 7500 miles or sooner. I have a 2014 Nissan Sentra which is notorious for transmission problems. I will be taking it in soon for new front struts, because New England roads are “in very good condition”. I will be on my third set of struts by now. Two of them cost around $1100 so thats a little ouch on my part. Though for some cars struts are even more expensive. So that aside, tiny engines with turbos will work much harder and generate excess heat under the hood, not to mention they will blow up faster. I had to learn that the hard way, when I took my brother’s car when all freaking lights lit up on the dash and the car was dying. Took it to the shop, it started misfiring on the mechanic, luckily only spark plugs were damaged. Got those replaced and seems to be working fine now. Turbos are an unnecessary stress for an engine. If you want race cars go get one specifically made to withstand high pressures. Dont put turbos on tiny engines, or it’s going to be a big flop. Toyota messed up with those engines in 2007 Camrys, it would seem they want to repeat similar mistakes with the turbos. Personally I wouldn’t advise that, but I am not a CEO of Toyota, and cant tell them nothing. I am also no mechanic either. So my words for some might not matter at all, and thats fine, I am ok with that.
You are absolutely wrong about everything and Toyota has building turbo vehicles for a long time now. Just because you had a bad experience don't mean anything. TOYOTA know what they are doing very well. Even the new Tacoma has been extremely reliable while other vehicles which used the same engine has no issues whatsoever
It’s okay, I agree to be wrong. If you know Toyota better, kudos for you. I had a bad experience with GM, so I automatically assumed that every car is the same way. Also I heard from my mechanic that it is better to have a naturally aspirated engine, than a turbo boosted one. The mechanic told me to stay with Aspirated engines for as long as I can. So I will keep my word, and will do. So I apologize If you know more than I do. So thanks for clarifying.
@@syken8695 no issues
Give me solid state batteries please
Just get a hybrid. Turbo power without the turbo (if you're scared). Bulletproof. 46 mpg combined.
You’de tell us if the Camrys engine/transmission fails right? Unlike tfl
As long as Toyota does not use wet belts for timing in there new engines, I am okay!
PHEV hybrid would be great in the Stout, how amazing that would be if going turbo plug in hybrid at that too
I wonder how much it would cost Toyota to change the turbo on the 1.5l engines to an F1 style electric turbo. They can be used to pre spin the boost or to convert boost to battery juice. Porsche just released one, but here it could really help mileage and drivability. It might actually help with its own lifespan as a turbo.
It cost more than the vehicle Toyota is selling. Porsche can do it because they charge more to have that technology. Porsche is 1000 levels above and other company. My favorite company.
I see why small displacement turbo engines have to be the future but longevity and squeezing a quart out of a pint pot don't go together.
I buy hybrids for the nat asp powertrain. As soon as Toyota goes turbo, it will be time to go full EV or another brand without a turbo hybrid.
Slow growth of BEV's because they only work for a small part of the population, just like small two door cars, supercars, or exotic cars. Consider that there are nearly 8 billion people and not even 2 billion useable automobiles, so less than 1 in 4 humans adults worldwide actually has a car, truck or SUV. Your video aimed at a tiny niche of vehicle enthusiasts that like Toyota // like me, a car crazy American.
Any chance they use solid state batteries?
nah for hybrids they probably use lithium-ion battery that they gonna make it bipolar. Bipolar battery was introduced with the aqua in the jdm model
Using turbos in a ECVT could be good. They can make a lot of low down torque reducing the need for high revs.
The motor can be used for torque fill of any turbo lag.
Hyundai, Kia class-action lawsuit
The class-action lawsuit alleges certain Kia and Hyundai vehicles from model years 2010 to 2020 have a defect. It leads to engine seizure, stalling, failure and fire.
But the deadline to submit a case claim for possible compensation is July 8.
"As part of the class-action settlements, what Kia and Hyundai are providing are a 15-year and a 150,000-mile extended warranty for those vehicles. However, in order to qualify for that warranty, owners have to first go to a Kia or Hyundai dealership and submit the vehicle for an inspection and have a software update applied to the vehicle. It's a knock sensor detection system," said Michael Brooks, the Center for Auto Safety's executive director.

It's a software update that can detect the problem that could lead to an engine failure. If you decide not to file a claim to benefit from the class action, you'll still receive the 15-year, 150,000-mile extended warranty after installing that software update.
Sandy Munro just did a video on Sakuu, and he announced the end of the ice age. When battery weight, cost, power density, and safety cross a certain threshold, ice vehicles become an endangered species. Sakuu might have done it, meanwhile there ate other breakthrough technologies announced by CATL. They are already in production! Toyota, pivot to Diesel to keep existing tooling productive.
Passenger vehicles, make friends with BYD - you are already endangered.
Plug in hybrids are already being sold in austrailia, India and S.E. Asia with panoramic sunroof, and everything the Rav4 can do and more For $26,700.
Please give me news on the stout!
This sounds like a detuned G series 1.5 liter 3 cylinder turbo. Think of the engine in the GR Corolla but making much less HP. This is also derived from the three cylinder engine of the JDM Yaris (not the venerable 1.5 liter 4 other regions have.). This is to be expected as we have seen with other companies with 1.5 turbos. However other companies started earlier giving them a headstart weeding out the bugs in their engines. My opinion is to get the 2.5 liter in hybrid or non hybrid form now before Toyota makes the inevitable transition.
The crowns r hideous . I’ll take a used Avalon. 1.5 liter junk . Any news on a new V6 to compete with Honda and Acura . V6 so much quieter and smoother . Love my 22 Highlander
good news
Gas powered Forced induction such as Turbos and Supercharger engines generate significantly more heat, which creates much more wear and tear on any engine. It will NOT be as reliable as a naturally aspirated V6 engine. Stop comparing diesel Turbos to gas powered. It's not the same, a diesel engine is not the same animal, it's just that simple. Toyota has absolutely lost any chances of me buying one, and I am not alone. Toyota can go pound sand.
Toyota is the company to make it work but Im worried about the larger vehicles in the lineup like the new 4runner. That vehicle right now the symbol of reliability but the 4 cylinder engine might be stretched thin. Definitely will need more maintenance than the V6 its coming off of. Hope it works out so i can think about purchasing one. The new design looks tough!
Toyota bet on black. The rest of the world bet on red.. Toyota are reaping their rewards..... The Chinese are starting to loom large and will probably have the European legacy car companies for breakfast soon..
Toyota has to meet upcoming emissions test standards coming in the near future, so basically, Toyota is consolidating the number of small engines, it's too bad Toyota chose not to do an I6, so, basically, Toyota and Lexus are getting rid of all engines smaller than a V6 turbo, what does this mean for Toyota/Lexus larger engines
Ford Ford Ford was the first manufacturer to use water cooled turbos as a major manufacturer in massive quantities. Toyota learned from Ford. Cumulative Thermal Engine management is mostly a concern with poorly maintained engines and abused engines. Technology can be introduced to stop these two sources of engine abuse. Like a limp mode for dirty oil or constant engine racing at continued high rpms. Hybrid architecture will reduce the initial load from a standstill on these small engines. In fact the load on these engines can be mapped to be reduced both on the lack of poor engine maintenance and abuse. Ford takes the hit for reliability because they are first to market progressive technologies. The tech with Toyota is good but Toyota is second to Ford with the introduction of newer tech.
How can you say Volvo X30 is nimble/fun. I dont know what cars you are used to but it drives like a brick... with wheels.
I'd rather have a bigger engines and more cylinders!
More mileage is better for the environment! (Instead of buying 1 car every 5 years, you can have it last 15-25 years!)
It's pointless.
Toyota dealers are playing too many games with limited product availabilities. No point talking about cars you can't have unless you bend over and overpay. The luster on the Toyota brand is fading.
Motors are electric, ICE are ENGINES not motors. Your commentary is confusing when you use the term motor for both configurations!!!!
I think everything was shifted regard the rav4 and crv and corolla and civic bcuz rav4 used to be corolla based and crv was civic based but now they kinda moved up a size now the crv and accord are really close now
Have you ever heard of Turbo broiler? That's the only turbo i like for cooking chicken and roasting pork belly. These turbo charged engines? Ugh!
went to the dealership last week they was talking about inline 6 coming 2025 also spoke to a manager at a ram dealership he told me no more v8 all suv and trucks coming out with inline 6 engines and hybrids
Toyota is getting like all the other companies, they want to keep making you buy new models more frequently than us ones that still drive 25 year old Toyotas that still run great when they were built to last virtually forever if you don't live in a winter road salt belt state that rots out frames
Reliability should go up. But turbos means it might not. One thing it ensures is their cars are only going to go up in price. While rules me out. Though, I never was going to buy one anyway.
Turbos are ruining the reliability in engines. The average person needs value out of their vehicle and turbos destroy all the value. These engines are for mod racers, not the average driver. We don't want turbos in our engines, we want reliability.
I wish the Yaris Cross would come to the USA.
🙌🙌
why? not safe not econmical not fun to drive. the worst
@@ouch9326 Because I like small cars. If the Yaris Cross had Toyota's hybrid system it would be economical and have better performance than an ICE model.
Please stop with turbos 😓 hybrid is cool but… turbo please no. Sigh. Already ruined the trucks
