i have a corolla cross with 2.0 engine. i use extreme driving style to get 5.0L/100km, which is 47MPG. i never go over 100km/h, seldom let the engine go over 2500rpm when accelerating and hyper mill when ever possible. so l smile when i see the gas pump, and its a different kind of fun to squeeze for MPG.

I am sorry, but I don't understand why reviewers don't further explain the cable corrosion found in Rav4 Hybrids. It is a very serious matter if you live in Canada and northern states in general, where salt is used to de-ice the roads. The prolonged warranty means nothing if you plan to keep your car for a long time. You know there is a class action lawsuit against Toyota in Canada, right?
@mikej238
Жыл бұрын
wash your car properly, considering the number if R4 Hybrids in the road the problem is miniscule. Everything rusts in Quebec, Honda Elements and CRVs were recalled in eastern Canada but not the west because the rear trailing arms would rust away leaving the vehicle a piece of scrap as it was unrepairable.
@user-ut1yo8vp7o
Жыл бұрын
The problem is not negligible in Canada. They couldn't have started a class action with minuscule numbers. I think Toyota realized this is a real problem, cause the high-voltage cables are inside the trunk in the new hybrids. This is something many reviewers are omitting. Don't get me wrong, the Rav4 is a great vehicle, maybe just not for Canada and places with similar weather.

The Rav4 is offered in a plug-in hybrid configuration whereas the Corolla Cross is not. The Corolla would probably make more sense for me in terms of size but having some all-electric range is a consideration for me since most of my driving involves local errands of less than 10 miles R/T. In any event, there are none of the hybrid models on the used market where I live, so I will be sitting tight for the foreseeable future.

The rav is better in quietness, drive quality and refinement? That means the cross is awful cuz the rav and terrible, especially with the quietness. It’s a rocky ride as well. I wanted is much to like this car. I tried over and over and it was just not a great ride at all. The highlander and Rx are the two I bought instead. The crv was also way better in drive and sound insulation over the rav but it’s ugly lol. Hope rav gets better. It’s just the right car for everyone if they fix some of its issues.
