Another advantage fir the trunk cover: since its flexible, you can easily store it underneath the false floor, which for some people, is important

[@Daniel-ul7mu]

Richtig schönes ausführliches Review. Mich hätte noch interessiert ob die Geräusch reduzierenden Maßnahmen messbar sind (also z. Bsp. Den selben Autobahn Abschnitt mal mit dem vor und face-lift model mit der gleichen Geschwindigkeit mit Tempomat abfahren und messen wie viel leiser der neue ist, idealerweise mit verschiedenen Geschwindigkeiten), vielleicht wäre das ja was für ein deutsches video? Ansonsten wäre noch zu sagen das der Kofferraumdeckel faltbar ist und dann ganz leicht verstaut werden kann. Danke auf jeden fall schon mal für das schöne Review!

I bought the Yaris cross excel in march . I absolutely love it . Great economy . £40 to fill the tank . 400 miles plus on a good drive . And about 350 around town . Acceleration is very sporty .

[@david22591]

Great review! I think in the UK we can only get the 130hp in the Premiere model which is the top of the range.

[@JetNix]

5:00 That wobbly cover can be twisted and put inside the side pocket in the trunk if you are transporting large items. =)

[@PaulMeier-cu3ds]

I enjoyed the early jokes, thank you. I respect what Toyota has been doing with hybrids which I think have a place for another ten years, especially in markets which can not afford or support full fat EVs yet. I also like and respect the choices they have made in what to include and exclude in what you get for the price of a Yaris. Would I want a Yaris? No. But I am glad it exists. BTW I agree with all the points made about its practicality and reliability.

[@autogefuehl]

Cheers!

[@jamiep61]

Popular In the UK 🇬🇧 as well 😊

When Thomas jokes and when his father in law says its fun, its a very German affair

[@user-vq7ew8gw6d]

Hello, watching your video from Portugal. Please do review of Hyundai Kauai. Please suggest or do a comparison between Yaris Cross and Kauai. Thank You.

[@cedricdecat1999]

You see them everywhere on the street and I must say, very good-looking car. Usually I’m not a fan of Toyota-design, but especially the rear where the lights and window seem to be in one piece looks very good. Also like the sharp edge there. Much better looking car than the normal Yaris in my opinion!

[@Roadunner42KM]

@autogefuehl I have to be the person that asks! Have Toyota indicated a kill switch or dealer code update for the GSR speed limit warnings? I was to buy a RAV4 this year but couldn't live with the alerts when I was only slightly exceeding the limits during speed zone transitions etc.

[@stuartmisfeldt3068]

In Japan I have a ‘21 hybrid e-four Z. You’re right about the door handles and closing sounds hahaha 😆. It seems underpowered, but I live in the mountains and don’t use highways much. Came standard with 18” tires, they are heavy! Interesting that roof rails only come with the adventure model…

[@autogefuehl]

thanks for the feedback!

[@ial01]

We don't get the Yaris Cross here in South Africa, I didnt even know it exists LOL We have the corolla cross, which is a best seller here by us along with Urban Cruiser. Right after the Hilux.

καλημερα απο ελλαδα, θα μπορουσατε να μου πειτε αν η καμπινα διαθετει ατμοσφαιρικο φωτεισμο οπως στην προηγουμενη εκδοση ? Γιατι δεν αναγραφετε πουθενα απο την Τoyota

[@runawayronnie]

We have the exact same trim / colour as this but bought it last year. We chose the GR Sport because of the seats. They've improved the digital cockpit, someting I find confusing in our car but not sure I'd buy another. Our car is too noisy and the build quality, especially the sound from the rear doors is poor considering the price. We also chose the Yaris Cross because of the boot. I't's more practical than many larger cars. I think the flex load cover and split level floor is great. Can't see why anyone would pay lots more for a Lexus over this car.

[@autogefuehl]

thanks for the feeback !

[@g.a.lobato1944]

In terms of Driving quality , Honda Jazz or Yaris Cross?

[@thomastcrapper4100]

For 40 000 I would certainly go for a year old RAV4.

[@gullible119]

Up to 40k.

[@HellDiver_02]

This car need to be in India. It would be such a hit 👌🏽

[@vitkrivan9380]

are you sure people in India have 30-40k Euros to spend on a small SUV? I really doubt Toyota would sell any....this car's main target are wealthier elderly people in Europe.

[@samirinitaly3931]

@@vitkrivan9380 It's already in India as Toyota hyryder or the suzuki granda vitara. Both feature the same hybrid system (electric motors, batteries, IC engine).

[@frankblack0503]

My wife has her second one (i work for toyota) and you are 100% correct in everything you said. Biggest downside is the too noisy cabine and suspension that feels bouncy.

[@anonay7238]

I have one and would agree that on the motorway it’s too loud and suspension is crashy. Other than that though it’s quite an ideal car for 90% of people.

[@anonay7238]

Oh and I find on a 35 mile journey commute (20 miles motoroway 15 miles urban and dual carriageway) I get 70-75mpg fairly easily and around 84mpg if I’m trying to drive economically. Around 60%-65% of the journey is done in EV mode.

[@chuckleberry4031]

I agree about the road noise particularly on an asphalt or rough motorway surface at speed . when you come off the motorway you realise how loud the radio is playing to drown the noise! However my wife loves the car in regular day to day use. We have had no faults in 17000 miles. Fuel consumption often surprises in a good way!

[@danezu791]

really awesome review, thanks, I don't know what to choose between the Peugeot 2008 GT 1.2L vs. Yaris Cross 1.5L? What would you choose, you probably drove both?

[@furkanhanmert5196]

Ofcourse toyota because it is toyota

[@ninaakari5181]

Peugeot has better acceleration and better quality feeling inside. Quieter ride too. Toyota is more reliable in the long run

[@banny123456]

I have pre-facelift model and it's great city car, not so much for long trips. It's pretty loud on highway(lots of wind noise) and on the firm side on R18 wheels. But super fun car to drive, relibale, big trunk (not so much space on back seats, but duable), consumption 3-4.2L, engine is ok but it's also pretty loud at idling and when charging the battery, or hard acceleration. In city, super agile, no problem at all, but at higher speeds, the lack of power is noticable. Overall, if you dont do long trips, don't carry 4 people all the time I will pick cross again. Economy is main selling point for me, full gas tank is 28L( yes, 28L) and you can do on that 700-800km in city drive easily, that's nothing, peugeot will have 1 to 2L bigger consumption. Or maybe used 2023 corolla cross. And also in 2023 this yaris win price to equipment ratio, I have everything, matrix lights, power tail gate, all the safety toys, heating steering wheel and seats, keyless, hybrid system etc, other cars were well behing at the same price point.

[@ThePtoleme]

Isn't the engine a little noisy when accelerating?

[@amuaiz]

Door opener placement is unique, but the shape itself is so 90s

[@mjrtensepian1727]

Yet another neat, inexpensive, little car we don't get in the States. I think the assumption that such vehicles wouldn't sell here is just plain wrong; exactly what we need.

[@ffotograffydd]

You get a lot of cars that aren’t available in Europe though, so it balances out. For example, I’d love a Toyota Corolla Cross but in the UK it’s not available so I either have to settle for the Yaris Cross which is smaller than I’d like or jump up straight to the RAV4 which is a bit bigger than I’d like. It is what it is.

[@DJAYPAZ]

A lot of vehicles are not available in Australia. Same problem. The other thing the car manufacturers do us restrict options for various vehicles that are imported. Some models like the Lexus LBX is available in 5 grades in the UK but only two in Australia. Car color options are changed depending on the market. The Japanese Kei cars are not exported but people from many countries including the US have shown a keen interest.

[@ffotograffydd]

@@DJAYPAZ Indeed.

[@CandidM]

"inexpensive" is a bold statement

[@Ambienfinity]

Likely to be very reliable, too. The thing with boots (trunks) is that it's the shape, rather than the actual litre capacity that determines how useful they are for storing things. The YC looks a very useful space. 8:26 made me laugh out loud.

[@autogefuehl]

😄

[@markgleeson4606]

Thanks for the nice review. People here in Japan drive much slower than in Europe or North America, and it shows in Toyota detailed design, which is all done in Japan. This results in the noise at higher speeds and lowish power levels. They might need to do more to address this, since twice as many of these cars will be sold in Europe as in Japan. Lovely car though, especially for patient law-abiding drivers! LOL.

[@autogefuehl]

thanks for the feedback !

[@germanboza]

So this is why you were in Mallorca! I took a selfie with you at the airport. Coincidentally, I got a white Toyota Yaris Cross like that at the rental company. It drives great, but for someone my size it's too tight.

[@autogefuehl]

Thanks 🙏

[@autogefuehl]

They always carry the license plate of where they were registered, which makes sense, because the owner does that and in this case, Toyota EU headquarters is in Belgium

[@ediericx]

I haven a 15 year old Corolla Verso with the softest door closing sound. Looks like it is not what it was anymore.

[@ArijitBiswasGooglePlus]

So, would you recommend a Lexus LBX or Yaris Cross (high spec)? Also I'm driving Golf 7 since 2013. I love the interior/build quality of Golf 7. Is Yatis Cross or LBX able to match such quality?

[@autogefuehl]

Golf 7 is a little better, Golf 8 pre-facelift not, Golf 8 facelift is good now again. LBX and Yaris Cross come very close, depends on the trim rather which you pick.

[@ArijitBiswasGooglePlus]

@@autogefuehl I can imagine I would agree with your analysis. I'm looking forward to VW T-ROC with improved interior quality.

Boot cover is totally silent.

[@BrateTebra123]

@@jpmalopes a little cloth can not absorb sounds from the boot as a platic cover coated in velvet. The boxy shape od the boot on every car is a source of low frequency sound noise due to resonance and it is important to have proper cover and to be carpeted in textile if you like proper sound insolation.

this is the Yaris Cross, different model from normal Yaris hatch: kzbin.info/www/bejne/bJvGkKmLjLh1q80

Is this your father in law car 🚗

Did you watch the video?

GR Sport 😂

[@kevc.2958]

the asia version looks better

[@jpmalopes]

True.

[@nevarran]

Yuck, so much uglier than the normal Yaris. Super car though. No one beats Toyota in terms of reliability and practicality. Small cars with some much room inside.

[@david_garibaldi]

I don’t understand why a car of this size is not electric. Toyota should stop designing combustion engine cars really. Besides that. Looks great from the outside but the interior is ugly as hell as always at Toyota. They have to step up their game.

[@samirinitaly3931]

They sell 200.000 of these in Europe and you want to them to stop making it! Toyota likes to make car that can outlive a normal person.

[@gullible119]

Luckily toyota has people with brains who know what they are doing and so they don’t care about evs. They only have the bz4x which is basically a middle finger to evs in general.

[@jdmguy44]

Toyota hybrids are selling strongly globally. Demand is strong and Toyota know what they are doing.

What is the point of it being an SUV? Other than to cater to clueless and ignorant people, obviously. Does it have more space inside than the regular Yaris? No. Can it actually go offroad or has any advantages over the regular Yaris that anyone who buys it would need? No. Does it have worse handling and comfort because it's pointlessly tall and high off the ground? Yes. Is it less efficient because it's taller? Yes. Is it heavier? Yes. Does it accelerate and stop worse because it's an SUV? Yes. Is it more expensive? Yes. Manufacturers need to stop catering to people who think SUV's are better than other types of cars because their knowledge of cars is limited to "bigger = better", and start pushing actually good cars to the market. Not the cars the clueless consumers want, but the cars ENGINEERS AND CAR DESIGNERS know are better. Bring back sedans, proper hatchbacks, coupes, estates, etc. Stop this SUV nonsense....99% of people who buy SUV's don't need an SUV and would objectively be better off with a proper car, and will realize that once they get to drive regular cars instead of SUV's again. It so pisses me off, it's so frustrating beyond words, that the WHOLE CAR INDUSTRY is catering to people who have the least interest and knowledge in cars, and who actually don't care what they're driving at the end of the day anyway, because they just want something to go from A to B in. And for us enthusiasts it's almost impossible to buy a new car that's not an SUV anymore.

In 2022 almost 200 000 Yaris were sold in Europe. From those, only 60 000 were Yaris Cross. The 4WD version is actually pretty capable for some 'light' off-road. My wife has a 2023 Yaris Cross (2WD) and the 2/3cm additional ground clearance makes all difference in gravel roads. It is more spatious, at least it feels more spacious... It is also more convenient to access and leave. Good for old people... Toyota buyers! ;-)

[@jdmguy44]

Car makers are in business to sell as many cars as possible at the end of the day. SUVs of all sizes are in big demand. Toyota as with others are catering to market demand. Simples.

Does it have more space inside than the regular Yaris? [Yes] Can it actually go off road or have any advantages over the regular Yaris ...? [It can go more places. I would have welcomed the extra ground clearance when I drove over the lip of a sunken plant enclosure in a car park] Does it have worse handling [for its higher centre of gravity] [No, counter intuitively, it's better]
