I love my Corolla Cross XLE. I watched a zillion reviews leading up to the purchase and just shake my head at the common complaint about its acceleration, which is more than fine (I live in one of the nation’s aggressive driver hotspots and have zero issue merging onto the local highways). The other huge upside is the cabin. The Cross has more driver legroom than the RAV4! I haven’t been able to drive a Toyota for decades because the driver side legroom has been so bad, but the Cross is VERY friendly to long legged tall guys and the headroom is great even with the sunroof. Highest recommendation.

[@solomonodiase4543]

How much did you get it

[@BrianCinBengals]

@The Real VR I’m actually much more comfortable in the Cross than the Highlander due to the cabin layout. The literal size of a vehicle doesn’t really correlate to driver space. There’s entirely too much focus on rear seat legroom at the expense of the driver.

[@manthony225]

@@BrianCinBengals totally agree. As a guy who is over 6'2" I've been really frustrated that newer vehicles skimp on driver legroom. Now I'm really excited about the Corolla Cross

[@ToyotaCorollaLE2020]

Hello everyone! I hope this comment finds you well! As the owner of the Corolla Cross featured in the video, I wanted to share some updates with you after two years. After careful consideration, I have decided to part ways with the Corolla Cross due to its high fuel consumption, slow performance, Apple CarPlay screen glitches, and deteriorating cabin interior. With only 8 months remaining on the lease, I am exploring other alternative options!

The worst CVT I have experienced was in the Mitsubishi lancer and I hated them from that point on. I then tried a Honda Jazz with a CVT and that was actually great. But I am curious to see how these new ones with the launch gear perform.

Subaru Forester awd

[@kentlisius7675]

A family member has a Corolla Hybrid it is so amazing because you have little helpers at the tip of your throttle so I try to start moving with those then when the gas kicks in you give it a little lift until you are on the freeway and you can just let the computer control the pedals all automatically which is way safer because they never signal with their brakes wrong.

[@ek1414_]

I wish they would have included the 6-speed manual option on these.

[@ecomotive6158]

Sadly, manual transmissions are a dying breed. I think that electric vehicles will eventually replace gasoline and the shittiest thing about that is no manuals.

[@GuerreroDelInfo]

@@oi32df glad they're keeping the manual alive

[@johnphillips4342]

With the modern computer controlled automatic transmissions they are more efficient than a manual transmission. Just about every sports car which had a manual transmission option has gone to totally automatic transmissions. Automatic transmissions now have 8 to 10 gears, imagine trying to shift through 8 to 10 gears manually. I just sold a Corvette with a six speed manual transmission, a real powerful fast car. I didn't find much interest from dealers for the car, it is a limited edition 427, 60th anniversary Vette. I asked them why and was told it was because of the manual transmission. Corvette buyers want to drive the car fast and the manual transmission shifts slower than the modern automatic and the new C8 Corvettes don't even offer a manual any longer. And many younger drivers today can't even drive a manual.

[@lenperera6851]

Less gears is always better, makes the trany strong (not economical).

Thank you for all these videos. We’re in the market for a new car because we had a Scion XB a partner of Toyota. Long story short the engine blew up. At first I was considering the Kia Soul but after all my research no thank you because it was in competition with the Scion xB and have the same issues! Now I’m doing either Toyota Corolla or Toyota Cross . I appreciate you. Keep the videos going…… Because it’s helping people like me and my husband make an informed decision!!! Do you have any other suggestions!? Again Thank you. Thank you Thank you! Also I’m a new subscriber to your channel.!

[@MauriceanMX6]

@@rushijoshi5731 Hey Rushi, sorry for the late reply. Coming from a 2018 Corolla SE, there's some pros and cons. It's honestly not THAT slow like reviewers complain about. It's like everyone has a heavy foot. Steering is predictable, drives smoothly over uneven surfaces, and definitely a big upgrade storage wise. I was able to fit 4 tires and 4 rims (separately, not mounted), and still had room for about 2 more tires and rims. Ground clearance is a definite plus as well. Road noise is nowhere near as bad as people are saying either, unless they're coming from mid to high end luxury vehicles. Fuel economy is amazing. I just wish they used slightly higher quality materials for the interior plastics (vents, shifter, etc).
