Basic information

2020 Toyota Corolla Cross Hybrid Premium

Reasons why I bought this car

As a person who likes to travel long distances, I am a tourist who likes to travel to nature and forests. In addition, my hou'w is still in the country, It's far from the place of work. Another important reason is that a girl needs a big car. But not too big, because part of the time is still needed to drive in the city. Comfortable seats, large interior space, fuel saving, large luggage space and high-quality technology are all why i chosen that car. But I am not a very good driver,and driving is not quickly. The car options considered are Honda HR-V and Mazda CX-30, but the final choice is 2020 Toyota Corolla Cross (2020 Toyota Corolla Cross) Hybrid Premium.

User experience

• Shape

The interior and exterior are very beautiful and very pleasant. I fell in love with it at first sight when I saw the ad in the first few minutes, and then I started to do some research and prepared to buy it.

• Practical car functions

The space of this car is quite big and is very good, because I am a girl, I usually have a lot of friends to travel and party with friends, so we are not suitable for small cars. Yes, after long-time  driving, there is no concentration of fatigue or discomfort. The car's rear seats are comfortable, the trunk is wide, and there is an electric rear door with pedal activation. If your hands are busy, you can open it with your feet, which is very convenient. The car key is a push start system, as long as you click on it, you can activate it, don't waste time finding the key in your pocket. When we lock the car, the rearview mirror will automatically fold, even if we forget to lock the car, it's okay, because if you can see that the mirror is folded, it means that the car is locked.

In addition, this car is very fuel efficient. What I like most is that the driving mode can be selected according to the road conditions we are doing.

1. If you are driving in the city, you can use a hybrid EV, you can save 25 -26 km/l of fuel, and your engine is very quiet, So that you can only hear the sound of tires crushing the road.

2. If you drive to the mountain to use Mode Power, the car will quickly go up the mountain. When going downhill, it has a B gear, it can easily drive downhill, because B gear is an engine braking system, it will not drive on downhill roads too fast, and it will keep us stepping on brake.

In addition, it is also a built-in hybrid battery charger. The steering wheel is light and easy to turn, it can be said that it is easy to drive, very comfortable. The two rear cameras at the back of the car make our reversing easier, and my car has many auxiliary functions (more precise parking system, BSM dead -angle warning, automatic wiper and TPMS tire pressure. Alarm), which enables people who drive like us to feel safer and more worry-free.

• Toyota Service Center

There are many Toyota Corolla crossover service center, and the lowest car maintenance cost. Compared with other brands, there are few troublesome problems.

• Driving impression

I have been using Toyota Corolla Cross for 2 months, driving 10,000 km or more and there is no any problems. It is worth noting that when talking about the sound of wind entering the car, if compared with the old car, the Toyota Corolla Cross is much lighter than the Toyota Vios 2015 (Toyota Vios), and the sound of wind cannot be heard when listening to music.

Another impressive impression is the hybrid system,Just like I experienced in my friend’s 2012 Toyota Prius. Knowing that this system is very fuel-efficient and the engine is very quiet. For those who are concerned about the problems with the hybrid system or the expensive maintenance, you need to reconsider it, because in the 8 years of exposure to the hybrid system, it has never been a problem. Now Toyota’s The hybrid is Gen4, and maintenance costs are reduced. More importantly, Corolla Cross has a 10-year hybrid battery warranty. Ask you why you don’t choose a electric car, the answer is that I don’t want to worry about finding a charger when traveling a long distance or going to a strange place.

Summary

It is reassuring when traveling long distances and when going home, because it is a 1.8-liter + hybrid system, which saves fuel. I believe you will like it if you have it.
