Thank you gor for a comprehensive review
Came from your baleno review, it was a good one
Thank you so much! Appreciate the feedback 🙏🏻😇
Loved this review Dean! Keep up what you doing 🥰. I'm keen on you testing out a performance car and when the new Chery Omoda C5 launches at the end of this month ,I can't wait for your review of that car. For me personally I think that this Corolla hatch and the Chery Omoda C5 suits you. Love your reviews 😘
Thank you so much for your feedback 🙏🏻😇 much appreciated!
Dean of the fuculty. Dankie
You’re welcome! 😂🫶🏻
Beautiful car and well informative review as always. Wish Toyota can offer the sunroof option though but cars are expensive this days sheesh🙆♀️😅😅
Thanks for your feedback! I agree - a sunroof in this beautiful interior would’ve been so nice 🥺 great car otherwise though!
Would u recommend getting outgoing model?
i wish that they offered a sunroof as an option in SA as they do in other countries why not SA!
Another model not sold in the United States.
14:19 ‘tis what she proclaimed😏😂😂😂
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Does it kick over to EV mode automatically and does the petrol engine makes a noise
Well done Toyota❤
👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻😎😎😎
When will your review of the Nissan Qashqai be available for viewing?
Soon, I promise! Editing takes time & money, but it is definitely coming 🙏🏻
Lovely stuff😮 The change to naturally aspirated or hybrid is definitely better and will ensure the vehicle is more reliable (weird to say that when we all know Toyota reliability levels 😂) All in all I see it is good looking but the old looking steering wheel nah mann😅 Price 😲😫 The sunroof would be cool but it will hamper aerodynamics and then fuel consumption won’t really be that great
The price might seem high, but it’s the most affordable option in its segment. That, coupled with Toyota’s foolproof hybrid technology, makes this a very strong contender for the price & compared to other midsize hatches 👌🏻 Thanks for watching! 🙂
I think they should've kept the turbo because the benchmark for hatchbacks are the VW range and they give you power to go with the looks
I think you’re right…
How much stuff can you fit in your trunk with and without the seats folded down? One of the main complaints I have seen about this vehicle is how little space it has but there are no videos actually showing that; you just see empty trunks that provide no indication of exactly how much space there is. Thanks!
I’m not sure why people think there is a lack of space. Boot space on the new Baleno is 318L which, in my opinion, is more than enough for a vehicle of this size. 👌🏻😁
Am I the first one here ?😁Also, when are we taking it for a paint job?
Ha! Leave my Oreo car alone 🤭
How is the CVT gearbox does it drone. 🤔
A little bit, but it’s thankfully not too crazy! I do also think it’s worth mentioning that you do not have any control over the gear ratios. There is no ‘manual mode’ on the gear lever or flappy paddles on the steering wheel. You kinda just take whatever gear you get & deal with it 😂😂😂😂😂
❤❤❤❤❤❤

Another one
DJ Khaled, is that you? 🫣
I feel like taking away the turbo was a bad move👎🏽.
Most hybrid vehicles are naturally aspirated nowadays, so I suppose it’s not entirely unusual 🤷🏼♂️
I baled after a few minutes irritated by the totally unnecessary and hugely distracting music background. Excess baggage. As for your efforts at presentation all I'll say is that in my collision with them I think they're misplaced, revealing more about you than the car.
Thanks, I think?
