Agree with the comment regarding sensors. Living in a snowy area where slush builds up it is pretty common in winter to loose a lot of the front end tech as slush builds. Even cruise can be affected.

I can confirm this. It usually happens a few times per winter when you get that wet snow/slush that builds up on the front of the vehicle. Sets off the lights on the dash and disables some of those features.

I'll solve everyone's need for parking sensors. Simply always back into a parking stall, then you can use your back up camera and mirrors. It also eliminates risk of backing out of a stall because when you back in you are blocking oncoming traffic with your vehicle.

You’ve got eyes! Exactly. Once I asked my 10-year-old granddaughter if when a tree falls into forest and no one’s there, does it make a noise, she said yes, I said, how do you know? She said if you have any doubt, just put a tape recorder out there.

It just does everything right in my mind. The RX if you need more space, But the Acura RX?, I would wait for the next refresh. Great episode as always.. Like the Beetles swag!

The major issue with trax i have is that its got a wet timing belt - which is probably going to need servicing every 40K. Considering its not easy to get into, it can get expensive if you're not doing it yourself (which most people won't).

The interesting thing about the Rav4 hybrid is it has front and rear electric drive motors the gas engine drives a generator. An easy conversion to a BEV at the production line , just eliminate the gas motor system and add batteries!

The engine can also power the front wheels. The vehicle is moved by the engine and/or MG2 and MG3 (in the rear axle). MG1 acts as a starter motor and is used to generate electricity to charge the battery. MG1 is also used to vary the ratios in the eCVT.

About the reason for having front parking sensors even though we have eyes, it's because depth perception are not the same for all humans. Some people have depth perception issue but not to the point of being considered an illness, they can still drive but will measure distance with tricks, i.e looking at certain things likes bumper, etc. Those tricks might not work in parking, depending on the parking location. Also, there are depth perception illness that prohibited people from driving. Hence, having more sensors are fine, maybe at some points it will be good enough to enable people with depth perception illness to drive.

My 2012 Volt had front and rear ultra-sonic sensors and a backup camera. The sensors used the speakers to indicate which corner or end was getting too close to something. Simple, worked in all weather (Ontario). My 2023 Model 3 had none (camera system was to replace the ultra-sonic sensors but then the car as delivered did not have the software to run them). Stupid. Still trying to get a plug in Prius XSE- 11 months and counting. The dealer has NO idea if the car will EVER come (talked to them today).

You are incorrect about the Honda hybrid system. The engine shuts off when the system determines it can run on battery only. The Honda system is superior to the Toyota system in all ways other than fuel economy. (I own 2 of the new Honda hybrids and I have driven a '25 Camry for a week as a comparison.)

6:10 I don’t understand why you never mention the ford escape hybrid or the lightning in your comments. I have in my lifetime purchased 40 plus vehicles. I have had a 2020 limited hybrid RAV4. Mechanically it worked fine but the paint was terrible. Easily scratched so I traded for a 2022 ford escape hybrid sel all wheel drive which I loved. It got better fuel economy than the RAV4 I had. Now I have a 2024 Ford Ranger Lariat and just love it. Love your channel but you push Toyota way too much. I probably would have bought another Toyota but the dealers in the maritimes push add ons like putting all kinds of accessories on and won’t remove them because they are money makers for them. With all the issues Toyota are having now I won’t be buying one any time soon.
