    Come along as we take our first ever drive in a 2024 Toyota Corolla Cross Hybrid XSE trim level. The Corolla Cross hybrid is very unique in the hot subcompact crossover field, offering good looks, good space, Toyota reliability, all wheel drive, a good driving experience, all on top of 42 miles per gallon in mixed driving.
    This XSE in two tone Blue Crush Metallic livery has all the bells and whistles and includes niceties such as premium JPL sound, heated seats, power lift gate, 18 inch wheels, digital gage cluster, and dual climate control. All trim levels come with Toyota's very comprehensive safety sense 3.0.

    Join us for our first drive and reaction in the 2024 Toyota Corolla Cross XSE. It was quite windy so not much of a walk around. This hybrid is surprisingly snappy and light on its feet with comfortable and easy steering. If not out yet, keep an eye out for our full review series on this fuel efficiency crossover.

    Just to mention …. You cut your passengers comments off sharply without letting her fully express herself … You always came back with refuting her by saying all was good ….. but you were not realistic with how you handled the ride. just sayin.

      Feedback is alway appreciated. Thanks for watching. These live drives/first impressions are completely unplanned/unscripted and are actually very hard to do and edit. Thanks again and happy motoring

    The road and the wind noise in the cabin. There's not much insulation. Feels cheaply made.

      We measured interior sound levels and will discuss them in the full review that coming. . Lots of hard plastics but still Toyota build quality.

      ​@@BeyondTheTestDrive lighter weight/better mpg's

    The sunroof is useless. You can tilt it open and it is fine but when you open it, the wind noise is unbearable. My corolla sedan didn’t do this. It’s hard to find an XSE trim without it. I enjoy driving my 2024 Corolla Cross SE hyybrid. I will definitely get an XSE in the future. The. Yaris Cross has a better interior trim which would be great in the Corollla Cross.

      Thanks for watching and for commenting. Yea, a lot of cars have windy and loud open sunroofs. You may be able to add an aftermarket deflector. All the best and happy motoring!

    Not my cup of tea. Engine even with the electric motor makes less HP than most competitors and the fuel efficiency for a hybrid at that power level is so so. It is a mass market suv so I get the lack of power but at that price point I think people can do better. 😊

    • @BeyondTheTestDrive

      Thanks for watching! We’ll have a full review out soon on this. The hybrid was pretty peppy and the electric motor torque is good. The question is whether the savings on gas makes up for the hybrid price, as there are better driving lower efficiency compact crossovers out there.

      It's the same 2.0 hybrid system as the latest prius. It goes from 0-60 under 7 seconds. I don't think there's any other faster option in the segment.

    • @Sanderopop

      it's actually the best in it's segment. 45 mpg for an awd compact suv is amazing and no one else has done it. I just wish they had a FWD only model with better fuel economy like 50 mpg. Would make for the most practical car imaginable. But then they'd lose prius sales

    I wish Mazda would make a CX-30 hybrid in the Alabama plant that this Corolla Cross is made in, with the same 2.0L hybrid system

    • @BeyondTheTestDrive
      @BeyondTheTestDrive  Před 2 měsíci

      Thanks for watching and commenting. There is a belief that US Mazda hybrids will come out of this plant. The problem with the Toyota hybrid system, despite being the best overall, does not really fit Mazda’s driving dynamics. Mazda may go down the mild hybrid path prior. Like a 48v system that would keep the Mazda driving feel.

  • @menguardingtheirownwallets6791

    The non-hybrid Corolla Cross is so underpowered that it is actually dangerous to try to get it to merge with traffic on the freeway. The Corolla Cross hybrid is faster, but also much more expensive, at a price where there are other options that are better (like the RAV4 LE).

    Driver didn’t seem to have much positive to say about the vehicle.

      I like them! I'm not LOOKING for a NASCAR. Just reliable/great maintenance vehicle. My "muscle car" days are over.

    I thought this was made by a million subscriber channel! This video is so underrated! 13 likes for such an amazing video is crazy.
