[@belletoyota]

Hi there! Thank you so much for your comment! :)

[@richardt.953]

ALL those things mentioned in your video, if a owner does Not know them by the time he/she leaves a dealership, that "sales person" did NOT do his/her job, period! As for the rear cargo deck, by flipped the deck cover over to the smooth surface side most likely NOT gonna stop any liquid from leaking down the gaps in to the lower (spare tire storage) level and that will make the clean-up even tougher than using a shopvac to vacuum the furry side of the deck cover!

[@belletoyota]

Hi Richard. I totally appreciate your passionate response to our video. These are indeed features that we mention in the delivery of the new vehicle to its owner prior to driving off our lot. However, these videos are also for drivers of Toyota vehicles who have acquired their Toyota a different way (inherited the vehicle, bought from a pre-owned lot instead of a dealership, shares the vehicle with their parents, etc.) Our channel is not meant to put the onus to learn the features on solely the drivers themselves, but to provide an additional resource for a variety of Toyota drivers to help learn more about their vehicle. Yes, the flipped deck cover should not be relied on to prevent a huge spill or leak, but can be handy for smaller spills or messes from miscellaneous items instead of staining the softer carpeted side. Also, it is great for adventure-lovers to prevent Velcro or mud damage from outdoor or sports equipment (tents, hockey gear, hiking boots, etc. Thank you for your thought-provoking comment!

Loved our 2011 Sienna which we traded in 7 years later on a "we ordered" 2017 Highlander. Love the Highlander XLE and I can still get almost as much Costco stuff in as in the Sienna. WE are keeping the Highlander but have ordered a 2022 Rav 4 Limited Hybrid in late October which I'm not even sure has started being built yet????? Can't wait but waiting sucks.

Press the view button next to the gas button

[@BigPaul3122]

In addition to the answer above…when you have the camera view on the screen, there is a button on the screen to activate an automatic mode. What this does is to make the camera view come on automatically when you are at very low speed e.g. parking or stopped at traffic lights. It allows you to see all around the car before moving off.

What is the difference between the snow button and traction control

[@belletoyota]

Hi JP! Awesome question. The traction control keeps your wheels spinning in sync so you have the most grip on the road. When you encounter a slippery terrain, traction control will initiate and the throttle will slow down. If you turn your traction control off, you are reducing the sensitivity of traction control to allow more slip (essentially each wheel gets independent power), which is used in situations where you want your tires to spin on purpose such as going off-roading or being stuck in snow, mud, etc. The snow button makes the engine rev higher and forces the motor to work more. This is used in a variety of situations, but where you will notice the difference is braking. It is very similar to a B mode or a 1 or 2 mode in older automatic vehicles, where the engine slows you down much faster (engine braking), so you do not need to only rely on your brake pedal, reducing the risk of sliding or skidding in the snow. Also, traction control is available on every Toyota vehicle, whereas the snow button tends to be limited to AWD models only. I hope this helps! Sorry for the long reply :)

[@julp452]

@@belletoyota wow thank you for the response my manual in my car doesn't explain that and certainly not used to all these buttons.

[@belletoyota]

@@julp452 No problem at all- I am glad to help! Yes, sometimes the manual has so much to cover, it does not go into detail on when to use some of these features. Once you get more comfortable with all the new buttons and features, you will be a pro! Thanks for your comment :)

[@JesusLopez-bs2th]

Question, other than the gauge how do I know how much to fill up my corrola se?

[@belletoyota]

You can reference your manual or toyota.ca to check out the size of your gas tank (ie. how many Litres of gas it holds). For example, my corolla has a 50L tank or 13.2 US gallons. This is what I look for as I am filling my vehicle. Or you can do the traditional method of waiting until the pump stops as you are filling up! Gas nozzles have pressure-type sensors that recognize when the vehicle is filled :)

[@markwiering]

My Toyota Yaris from 2005 has none of these features. Well... at least not 1 to 4. I will have to check the fifth one. Personally, I prefer simplicity over complexity. I prefer driving a car where I know what each button does over a car with millions of buttons or a car with some overly advanced touchscreen display to control the car. That is why I prefer older cars over newer ones. ;-) What I love about my car compared to other cars I have driven (Renault Twingo from 2013, Peugot 106), is that the Toyota Yaris drives to smoothly. I can accelerate without feeling a bump and I can decelerate without feeling the aggression of the engine. The car just gives an energy of rest. And, this car is like a tank. I have had four unfortunate cases where someone bumped into me (*tailgaters who couldn't brake in time when I had to brake for animals crossing the road*), and in none of these cases did the Toyota Yaris show any visible damage. One of these collisions slightly scratched the paint, but it didn't leave any dents whatsoever.

[@belletoyota]

Hi Mark! Thank you for your thoughtful comments. I can absolutely appreciate your perspectives on the older cars- I just bought a 2001 Celica myself and there are less buttons than my newer Corolla for sure!

These are fog lights, only use them when visibility is terrible, back only when fog is very dense and you can see under 50meters. If you press auto high beams, you can just set lever onto on, car will disable lights when it detects light, like from city lamps and cars in oncoming lane, but wont detect car that are driving before you on the same lane. But yes, when high beams go out and the lever stays at on position with auto mode enabled they'll come back after a while. Also, If you have these terrible toyota halogen lights, switch on the front fog lights for better visibility but turn them off once you see traffic. Fog lights does not blid others like high beams but from my experience they are little to much to handle for some people.

While the availability for some features is obvious for many others it's not. I did not receive any documentation from my dealer Scarborough Toyota with a list of all features that my RAV4 XLE has and I can't find any information about this on the Toyota Canada website.

Is eco drive mode best for city driving?

[@belletoyota]

Hi Dale! You can use eco mode whenever you'd like as it can be used on the fly and primarily affects your acceleration power to help you increase your fuel economy. Vehicles tend to use the majority of their gas by starting and stopping at stoplights, stop signs, etc. Therefore, it tends to be most useful in the city where you will accelerate and decelerate frequently. Many drivers also use it on the highway once they have reached their desired speed. Thanks for your comment!

[@dj3114]

I have a 21 XSE and in town use "normal" mode. It gives slight better MPG because it enables you to get to speed faster so you can then maintain speed - sometimes called "pulse and glide". I use ECO on the highway when you really don't notice. The only time I've used "sport" was to merge onto a busy freeway in a larger city, then switch to "normal". Does not hurt to switch on the fly because it's all software with nothing happening with gears.

Hi Moazam! This is a 2021 RAV4 XLE. Thanks for your comment :)

[@IdealizedMedia]

2021 Toyota Camry SE Hybrid, What are the features I may not know?

[@belletoyota]

I have another 'You may not know' video on my list of future tutorials to make :)

[@wooorkkk4138]

How can we turn off the audio system of a TOTYOTA Corolla 2020 model? When I press the power button it looks like it just restart the audio system.

[@belletoyota]

Pressing the Power/Volume button should turn off the audio, if this is not happening, it's best to see your local Toyota Service department and speak to an advisor or technician.

[@Matt-xg7nb]

I mean these are all things your salesman should tell you when you buy the car.

[@belletoyota]

Hi Matt! Thank you for your input! We do have product specialists go through the vehicle with the guest when they come to pick it up; however, it is also important to tailor the delivery to the guests' needs, wants, and priorities. Sometimes guests just want the basics and to then seek out resources to learn on their own later. I appreciate your point of view!

[@UnkleAL1962]

@@belletoyota In other words, you cater to and stroke the ego of the typical American buyer with the typical short attention span, of just the basics at the time of sale. Very PC answer and understood. However, some observant long term followers since the 70's of Honda's, Toyota's and Subaru's look for these little quirky details. I had to laugh when Jeep planted their "eggs" which were logos or decals and small changes in badging from vehicle to vehicle and people got temporarily excited. When I turned on the key and clicked my seatbelt 20 times quickly in my old Subaru and that action turned off the door alarm, now THAT was noteworthy. Or I unhooked the 3rd row child seat seatbelt using the key and was able to stuff the whole thing up in the roof holder, that was also noteworthy. Please, continue to show us these little details, there are many people who love these personally customizable options about Toyota's and Japanese vehicles as a whole

Nice butterfly 🦋 tattoo 🥰

[@belletoyota]

Thanks, Mujahid!

[@dshort01]

I choose to reference my manual

[@belletoyota]

Great decision! It can be an excellent resource for learning new features!

[@kellycote2385]

What year is the Rav 4

[@belletoyota]

The RAV4 in the video is a 2022 model year

[@adrianinnavan3910]

Bronwyn, how come you have such a beautiful Welsh name? Are you aware of what it means? If not you should definitely look it up.

[@sandukanec]

If the car is with electric power steering, you can turn the ignition key 3 times faster and the power steering will turn on even when da car is not working :)

[@belletoyota]

Thank you for your comment, Alexander!

[@MrGagge67]

You can also close or open all doors with a tiny button on the rear door on most of the new Toyota cars.

[@belletoyota]

Thank you for your comment!

[@myhomelandiraq1123]

The rear camera doesn’t spin with the Steering

[@chriscapablanca3491]

Also isn't it true the rear floor deck can be dropped down 2" ?

[@belletoyota]

You are correct Chris … the floor deck can be dropped down 2 inches in the RAV4.

[@NabilTec]

Nice 👍

[@belletoyota]

Thank you very much, Nabil!

[@sergiopaulino859]

thank you

[@belletoyota]

Thank you for your comment, Sergio!

[@brutusthepug1012]

I'm a Toyota nerd, so I'll be amazed if I find something here I didn't know. Will edit comment after finishing video Edit: I knew them already, but none are applicable to my 21 tacoma, lol

[@belletoyota]

Hi Carson! Thanks for the comment. That's awesome that you knew all of the features included in this video. We admire all Toyota-lovers!! Have a great day :)

[@jeffreylyons1531]

The eco climate sets ac temp 2*F higher, it lies to you. Eco mode does nothing but change the throttle input curves. Love my Toyota but these are both gimmicks.

[@Lucky8s]

Moderating throttle input is exactly how better fuel economy is achieved. It's not a gimmick

[@belletoyota]

Hi Jeffrey, thanks for taking the time to comment. Eco mode is used quite frequently among our guests and we tend to get great feedback on its impact on fuel economy. This also takes driving patterns and habits into consideration too! I appreciate your feedback!

[@chathunipathirana4891]

What about the touota latest hybrid s spare tyre

[@belletoyota]

Which model are you inquiring about?

[@TheHaratashi]

Why they can't have a simple way to get maps on the screen. I have a 2021 rav4 and I've tried everything and can't get a map to display. You would think in this day and age of technology they could get a map to work.

[@belletoyota]

Your vehicle should be equipped with Apple CarPlay. If you connect with CarPlay to your vehicle you should be able to bring up a map app like Waze on your screen.

[@jessegloverjr.5890]

How do you switch into Reverse?

[@belletoyota]

Hi Jesse! Thanks for your comment. I am going to assume you mean in a manual vehicle? In many Toyotas, you must lift the moving part of the gearshift shaft while moving the gearshift to the left of first gear. Hope this helps!

[@Haters_finna_hate]

What type of Toyota istbis

[@belletoyota]

The vehicle used in the video is a Toyota Rav4

[@lucacarneiro839]

I have a 2006 rav4 can you pls show us hidden features about that car pls

[@belletoyota]

Hi Luca! I would love to; however, I rarely get access to vehicle older than 2016 for tutorial videos. My apologies!

[@G.T.muzika]

Lessons from driving school and owners' manuals.

[@belletoyota]

Thank you for your comment! These are great resources to learn more about your vehicle.

[@BrianLera]

Very helpful thanks!

[@belletoyota]

Thank you so much for the kind words, Brian! Much appreciated.

That looks like gooffy's face.😂😂😂😂

[@bngr_bngr]

My 1990 LandCruiser has lights.

[@belletoyota]

Thanks for your comment!

[@Chafflives]

'Smart-flow mode' looks like either fresh, or recirculated air to me.

[@belletoyota]

Thanks for your comment! Recirculating air is a different icon- looks like a car with a curved arrow inside. The smart flow mode icon is an arrow pointing at a person. Have a great day!

[@seamusoflatcap]

Why don't they put all this info in a handy booklet that owners can read. Oh, wait . . . .

[@belletoyota]

The Owner's manual can absolutely be a great resource, and so is your local Toyota dealership :)
