2024 Toyota Yaris Cross 1.5 S HEV Review - Better as a hybrid at PHP 1.6M?

[@rdpacis7822]

Haha! Owned one and the vibration is nuts. I should've gone for corolla cross for better nvh and power. Sadly, i bought one then 1 month later they announced the facelift corolla cross hev.

old battery tech ung nasa CHX sa YXHEV naka Lithium batt

[@revanchistofnumenor]

Thanks for the review. Pretty nice. As it stands though, the presence of the G variant of the Corolla Cross at 1.462M kinda defeats the purpose of getting this Yaris Cross variant. It's also a hybrid while being a true TNGA platform whereas the Yaris Cross is essentially a Daihatsu.

[@richardchico2546]

Agree. Corolla Cross G variant owner here. Matagal akong nagresearch and compare sa dalawa and ultimately we decided to get the Corolla. Sobrang layo ng quality, ride comfort and NVH. One of the best major decisions we made as a family (and also because we avoided the Yaris Cross Daihatsu trap. Buyer's regret sila pero wala diyan aamin for sure)

[@Kaluskos-San]

Thank you, Vince! Very potent input for my decision making. With the 1st part, I already made up my mind.

That model is totally different from the Yaris Cross we get in Europe. It looks bigger and the interior looks nicer. More like the Corolla Cross we get.

[@lordlouis9931]

which is better for fuel Kia Niro or Yaris cross?

[@francisgene3890]

Was seriously planning to get this but opted for A Geely Azkarra, same price but refinement and ride quality, ang layooooooooooooo! This is a daihatsu, not a toyota

@@Litt02 depends actually on how you drive it. Azkarra is on the comfy side, so chill driving lang kami palagi, but still has 190hp and 300nm torque for overtaking

Do you have any guess on what wiil be the price of this unit after zero tariff effect?

[@keiintag6184]

deduct tax percentage and thats it

[@autoindustriya]

IIRC: the Yaris Cross is made in Indonesia, so tariff wont be a problem because AFTA. Only the 50% excise tax remains.

FRONT FASCIA is taken from COROLLA CROSS

[@thebigcheese6606]

Is this a rebadged daihatsu?

[@jimjellychristoff350]

Yes.

[@autoindustriya]

The answer is more along the lines of Yes and No. Yes, it is a DNGA-B platform wearing a Toyota badgr. No, because there is no Daihatsu badged model that is equivalent (e.g. Raize = Rocky)

[@thebigcheese6606]

​Thanks for the update

[@kthb-reels]

For anyone considering the yaris cross, the engine droning sound is unbearable. Yes the corolla cross has less features but the driving and comfort is night and day. Suspension on the yaris cross is stiff while the corolla cross is very plush.

[@robertdionne6073]

Sir ka level po b ito ingay at ma vibrate kagaya ng l300, adventure, travis, at crosswind?

[@kthb-reels]

@@robertdionne6073 Personally po, hindi ko po na try yung mga cars nilista mo pero for reference lang po, mas silent yung mga vios at mirage. Sa vibrations naman po, ma fefeel mo talaga sa gas pedal po at sa center console.

[@euphegeniadoubtfire1364]

Did I hear that right that the Lithium Ion battery pack is stacked on top of the fuel tank? Just a minor concern with that. When a Lithium Ion battery pack goes bonkers and spontaneously catches fire, firefighters who have fought EV fires abroad, describe such a barbecue event as a multicolored blow torch from hell that is extremely difficult to control because Lithium produces its own oxygen to keep the barbecue going . And the last thing to have sitting right next to a raging inferno would be a fuel tank filled with highly combustible gasoline because that would literally be adding fuel to the fire. With that said, I think the best buy would be the V model just to be sure.

[@rondg2]

my honda city hatchback gets 30km/L at a steady 75kph on the expressway. you don't need hybrid to get great fuel efficiency. also there's no wind noise coz it's aerodynamic.

[@tiyaisabel]

Si imbento naman hahahah. Kahit wigo di kaya ang 30km/L. Pag honda click sinasabi mo 😂

For 1.6miliion toyota or daihatsu rather is a humiliation to the branding of toyota when you see its quality. Mas maganda pa quality ng chinese cars dyan lalo na ung gac emzoom. This one is something you can be proud of if it was branded as the first filipino made modern car. Pero toyota sia ehhh tapos ang oangit ng quality ng cabin and even the doors

[@revanchistofnumenor]

There's the corolla cross that has a base variant around almost 200k less expensive than this Yaris Cross variant while still being a hybrid and offering a night and day driving experience vs the Yaris Cross.

[@DarthAndre24]

@@skiriigreen6323poor NVH. If it looks good but vibrates and is noisy inside, is it good quality?

[@renzyboi1]

I had a chance to drive this once since a friend let me drive his and I have to agree that it definitely feels cheap compared to competitors of the same spec. I’m not gonna mention any brand as I’m not fanboying, just an honest observation. The feel may actually grow to those who really likes to drive Toyota so it really depends. 🙂

[@healthadvice3091]

put in mind that this is hybrid version it will save you a lot of fuel trust me. its the engine and technology that makes it expensive

[@KaisiirFlynn]

Better get the corolla cross than this 😂 big difference in driving comfort and experience. This feels cheap comparing to corolla cross.

CR-V HEV is way better than Yaris Cross, Corolla Cross and RAV4.

Yeah even the G variant is much better lalo na ngayon na hybrid na rin sya and significantly less expensive than this Yaris Cross.

[@skiriigreen6323]

The question is, can you afford to buy Corolla Cross? Maka Cheap akala mo may pangbili at car expert😂

[@jeffreyjaucian1693]

Hybrid works like, electric when running 0-20mph, gas works when running 21mph and above.

[@saranghaeureka]

Hmmm i dont like the fact that there are oversprays under the hood…. Did this car pass the quality check? Or this car is just a demo… i hope for those who are buying it, please check your hood paint. Overspray is just so unprofessional and quite lacking

[@luzemmanuelluz5]

It appears that this is somehow a norm for DNGA-based cars.

[@saranghaeureka]

@@luzemmanuelluz5 really? man sounds like they are going boeing on these types of cars... my old vios doesnt have that. well i hope people would raise concerns on these small details cuz i dont think anyone would pay 1.6 mil on a sloppy paint job ( or maybe its just me )

[@Mabrook2024]

The big question is- what would u do to ur hybrid car after 10 years?.. u cant sell it coz the battery is almost dead, the only option is to keep it and buy a new battery worth 6 figures. And by that time, ur car is already old and clunky. So it negates all the fuel savings u get. Quite pointless really. Stick to the good old ICE!

[@astan168]

Battery should be good for up to 150,000 km

[@Mabrook2024]

Then what? After 150,000 kms? Buy a 6 figure battery for a 15 year old dilapidated car? ..The longer u keep a hybrid car, the harder it is to dispose it, sell it, or even keep it. Doesnt make any financial sense.. the battery is the killer here. Not to mention if the electric motor and inverters will last that long..

[@astan168]

I normally reach only 50k+ in about 10-11 years after which i sell a car. Battery should still be good for the buyer. Hopefully batteries will get cheaper by then as battery recycling could already be the norm.

[@skiriigreen6323]

How did you know that the new battery is worth 6 figures???😂

[@luzemmanuelluz5]

Ang pogi kaso, DNGA platform. 👀 Mas okay ang Corolla Cross dahil TNGA platform na ang ginamit. Sa NVH pa lang, panalong panalo ang Corolla Cross.

[@onwheels888]

As long as you temper your expectations, it's a really good daily driver. Not the one I take out of out of town though. Too noisy and not that comfortable to drive. 😄

[@sprakenite]

I’d get the corolla cross G which is lower in price tbh. If you need a smaller car than the cross just get the raize

[@CrossCuntyRic]

This is better than the Raize. But get the non-HEV models

[@richardchico2546]

I'd rather get the new Kia Sonet super sulit. Ekis ang Yaris Cross and Raize kasi Daihatsu mafifeel mo naman sa ride and drive
