Brilliant video.. showing real world footage.. as it happens. No gimmicks .. just recording the reality of the Toyota's tech wizardry. Have subscribed and will be looking at your previous reviews. Many thanks . This is the sort of down to earth footage that car buyers need in making up their minds before heading for the showrooms and requesting a test drive.

Thank you appreciate the positive comments 👍🏼👍🏼 Yes that’s kind of how I started the channel off, basic down to earth daily vlogs of my garage, reviews on every day vehicle, plus my projects. There is a lot of Toyota content if you search my channel 👍🏼 Thanks again

Thanks for that. I’m on my second C-HR HYBRID - the GR Sports, lovely car. I had ‘self-park’ demos at the dealer’s but never felt confident to use it. Your video ‘cured’ me - cheers.

Yeah it’s such a useful feature, very clever technology involved. I do miss the C-HR the 2022 Rav-4 we got (top spec) ain’t got half the tech the C-HR did unfortunately, self park is one of them. Thanks for watching 👍🏼

I’ve had my Toyota CHR for over a year now but have never managed to do the self reverse. You’ve made it look so easy. I will try it again. Thank you.

You could get the RAV4 into that space, be a little more confident in the cars sensors, it will stop before hitting anything, even when you're parking manually.

Жыл бұрын

Was a brand new £30,000+ car at the time….. no thanks not risking damage for demonstration purposes, and no your a fool to fully trust sensors they there for assistance only. Was a quick and simple demonstration of how the system works, not a top gear test to see how far you can push the system before it causes damage for a laugh. These will actually make contact with another car if they are in a blind spot of the sensors
