2021 Toyota Corolla Cross 1.8V full review in Malaysia - RM129k

[@brandenalexander6038]

Yall complaint this problem that problem but after 10 - 15 years those things don't matter anymore, nothing can beat toyota peace of mind. My 2007 innova and hilux still runs with no breakdown, serviced with SC from day 1 till now. Lovely!

[@Mfiman]

Same here avanza 2008

[@hafizhazim3769]

Yeah.. in term of peace of mind.. compare to toyota.. proton is totaly bullshit.. u got all the technology but in term of realibility.. proton is super shit

[@unalivebagel697]

Something that's looked over, is how I appreciate how Matthew explains at the 2:40 mark, the seating position is suitable for old people. Helping shop a new car for much older parents (70+) and that's something that's usually looked over by other reviewers. Kudos, great review!

[@HuntaKiller91]

Thx for 3:00 Not many reviewer highlight the seating position considering we're getting old and accessibility is a must

[@Yddp3307]

i test drove the corolla cross before, the seating position is spot on, TNGA platform Toyotas have awesome seating position

[@mindmask3778]

Don't expect too much from 1.8v, the premium one will come from hybrid variant. Toyota focus now more towards hybrid model. Don't be surprised when hybrid version launch, far better than 1.8v.

[@akayem550]

No matter what, i will buy hybrid in next 10 years,

[@redixora8612]

Toyota is known for its comfort & reliable car. Gonna grab a Toyota

[@Kyoraf82]

Finally the review that been waited

[@hoshuliang]

Generally good content and less sugar coaty compare to the old reviews, but In this video, Matt's voice is heavily muffled and almost sounds like he is mumbling with the mask on. For video review pls consider having a small wireless or wired mic that clip to his shirt or extend into the mask for better sound capture.

[@matthewtong123]

Great feedback, Steven. We'll work on it!

Or just take the stupid mask off. Last 2 years have proven they don't work, never did work, never will work, is just a costume and silly

Finally V spec review

[@adiii4664]

V is high spec for honda

[@ndt2046]

The placement of the port for Android Auto isn't just a nuisance; frankly it's a hazard to have dangling wires around that get in between you and the controls. Come on la UMW, benda simple jer

[@ndt2046]

It's a real shame because the TNGA platform is so competent.

[@rizwanabdullah_]

I wish Honda adapt this kind of CVT where we have option of fully manual compared to just S mode : higher rev range but ended up shifting automatically later too. Not a pleasant experience with paddle shifter.

[@Vexterian]

Excellent review as always. I have subscribed.

[@jasonkok9942]

this Corolla Cross 1.8V are well featured but Toyota still need to upgrade something such as better infortainment and speakers too, a better wireless charging port… soft touch material on the dashboard and door trims… that will be a close to perfect…

Would appreciate feedbacks from Cross 1.8V owners on city driving fuel consumption IE litres per 100km. Thanks

[@jackchuah4183]

I think the petrol V spec is good enough, as it is already very fuel saving... Hybird card price will be higher and 2nd value is lower due to battery life span.

[@bigglyguy8429]

I wouldn't touch a 2nd hand hybrid

[@wyephanglit5226]

May I know your experience for fuel consumption litres per 100km city driving?

Like all Toyotas it’s a perfect car tailored made for its targeted audience…whether it’s a good car or otherwise depends on whether you are in the targeted audience so yeah…:)

[@l3ryan7]

this or a 2nd hand CH-R? both would probably cost almost the same. Would the interior of the CH-R be more premium than this? I like the car but the interior seems a bit underwhelming

[@matthewtong123]

The Corolla Cross has a much nicer interior and it's more practical too. Matter of preference, but I'd go with the Corolla Cross for its utility.

[@justinc1745]

For a car that is underpowered. Selling for that price is really disappointing. If i have to pay for that sort of money, i would expect higher power output to go with the comfort. Oh well. Its a toyota. Plain n simple n safe as usual 😅

[@Briansvlee]

Sorry to say this but Mazda CX-30 beats Toyota Corolla Cross in every aspect except the price tag. Noticed most car reviewers “forgotten” to mention CX-30 when comparing cars in this segment.

[@yangerek78]

Cx30 is just a sup up Mazda 3 which in size smaller than this. Anyway CX30 have been discontinued by Mazda so it irrelevant to compare

[@Briansvlee]

@@yangerek78 just notice your reply, you must have mistaken CX3 with CX30. CX30 just launched 2 years ago. It’s now the best selling Mazda after CX5 in US

[@poon5544]

Interior quality inside CX-30 is awesome, but the rear passenger and cargo space are much smaller.

Im a CX30 owner, and im still a big fan for mazda till date. 👍🏻

[@aeroline11]

From NA point of view the Cross powertrain is more than enough to move the car. If from a turbocharged owner to view the Cross powertrain then it is junk. Toyota is never mean of power on their vehicle except Supra. So one who complain the powertrain is never the fans of Toyota. They are about reliability and fuel saving.

The only thing I wanna know is does it have AWD or it it just styled like a real SUV? And is it a normal gearbox or CVT?

[@ammarhussam05]

I test drive it, it’s underpowered car with this engine, i drive Altis and I can tell you that for sure. Definitely not worth the price unless larger engine is used

[@royalprince5878]

Yeah I felt it too. I don't understand in this review mentioned the car is energetic and responsive. Responsive, okay no lag but slow. Energetic, hmmmm I don't think so

[@xmenlingcheehuat0811]

for its target audience, that kind of performance is definitely adequate. Plus, performance is most probably not their priority as well.

[@Yddp3307]

Wait? Why im feeling the opposite? 😂 the new altis definitely felt less responsive compared to the corolla cross that i test drove. After asking the SC only i know the corolla cross is actually tuned to have faster throttle response while the altis is going for a smoother throttle

[@limming5589]

Basically test drive and seriously is underpower and the interior is just giving old ancient type, compare with its competitor is really losing out a lot, somemore using foot break omg, really speechless on this

[@solajayi6551]

well said. i test drove the cross too back to back for a few weekends randomly and i must agree with you. it is indeed underpowered more like there isn't enough power punch or push when you need it. The interior feels very old and very basic for the price tag. You'd be better off buying a used altis 2014 to 2018 or a used camary 2.0 or 2.5 2010 to 2018 because they probably drive as smooth as corolla cross.

[@rainsyahdante6702]

Well for me... Its soso, not that underpowered but still getting smoked by other car, i would rather go.... Outlander, x70, civic n maybe a real corolla, but if i got no choice well..... Fine then use this cross

[@bus-wd1jq]

It is just 40 kg heavier than corolla sedan but maybe the rim and tyre size affect the performance. By the way, corolla sedan is not underpower.

[@MrZeer77]

This one vs Mazda CX-30 which one is your favourite?

[@matthewtong123]

Haven't driven the CX-30, but the Mazda has a much more premium interior and should be more engaging to drive than the Corolla Cross. Can't deal with the plastic claddings, though.
