I’ve had a 2023 Camry Hybrid for just over 12 months now and I can confirm that it is the cheapest car to run by far. I average 4.6lt per 100kms and get 900km range from a 50 litre tank. It’s brilliant.

We just bought a 2024 Toyota Camry Hybrid SE Nightshade Edition ....❤️ it!

Great video! Learned a bit as I didnt know the awd was different between companies.

For many consumers, they are not quite ready for EV's because of expense, charging infrastructure, and range anxiety, so a hybrid is a good compromise. Hybrids tend to have great fuel economy, and consumers don't have to worry about running out of battery life during long-distance driving or finding a charging station in more rural areas, especially one that actually works.

Consumers don't have to be ready for the BEV's (the mandate for ONLY BEVs is Marxist, because it eliminates our freedom of choice, based on the forcibly imposed left ideology that will never succeed because it is Utopic). Based on real science, BEV's suck because they are very polluting, extremely dangerous, very unreliable, highly expensive, very impractical and [the most important "quality"] controllable (especially by the Chinese commies). The claim of saving the planet is false - as usual, is about power, about controlling us, not about helping us. My case is normal: I have very efficient ICE cars (Mazda MX-5/Miata ND2, Suzuki Jimny LCV 4x4 etc.), but also an excellent hybrid: Lexus UX 250h AWD F Sport - that I intend to drive till I'll die. Thank you, but no sh!tty BEV for me. By the way, hybrids are not at all a compromise, but the best way to save the lost kinetic energy when braking (or even coasting) that otherwise destroys the brake pads, rotors etc. Also you save on the parts you don't need anymore: alternator, belts etc. Thus they are very efficient, taking the best out of both worlds: ICE and EV.

South Africa may be sunny, but it’s a cloudy political mess.

I wanted to buy a Rav 4 Hybrid but the wait time was 6 months minimum(acct the sales) so I got a CX-5 (gas powered) instead. Toyota's failure to make enough Hybrid vehicles to serve the market demand has been going on for years. If that does not get changed they will suffer from such arrogance! I like Toyota cars but when the sales tried to convince me to give up the Rav 4 hybrid and buy a BZ4X instead, I refunded the deposit and walked away.

A better description of the Honda hybrid, that emphasizes its simplicity, is that it is usually driven purely by electricity. But that electricity comes from a combination of a battery and an ICE-driven generator. This is called a serial hybrid. There literally were two experimental version of the system in the Clarity, leased in California, where the electricity was battery-only, or battery plus hydrogen fuel cell. The chief criticism of a serial hybrid is that the two conversions between electrical and mechanical power add what seem to be unnecessary losses. What these criticisms ignore is that separating the ICE from the wheels allows the ICE to run at its peak efficiency almost all the time. But that is also where the clutch comes in. In situations where power and speed do not need to fluctuate much - that is, on the highway - it becomes a single-speed parallel hybrid.

Nice Video Shari, exactly what I am looking for. Currently I drive a 2017 Honda Accord Hybrid touring. I drive 30 - 32,000 miles/year and have 230K miles on my car in 7 years. Probably next year I will be looking for a replacement. I am looking at CR-V, RAV4, Crown Sedan or Signia, and Lexus NX300h. My current ride did not come with a spare, but I took out all the foam and found a full size spare that would fit in the space, and would do the same in the next car/suv as well. I know RAV4 comes with a spare, but not sure about the Crown models. I hate that the lexus models come with the run-flat tires. Do any of these car have enough space for me to stick a spare tire in?

I don't know where do you live if in Canada krown rust proofing is the best i do every one to 2 years my 2009 matrix still like brand new

My neighbor across the street has a 2014 Prius, gets greater than 50 mpg; over 300K miles; and the Prius is his everyday commute vehicle. Toyota's hybrid experience is major reason that I bought a 2019 RAV4 Hybrid new. I'm at 40K miles. It cost $900 more than the non-hybrid model, but the fuel savings breakeven was at 18K miles. My No#1 dislike is the 12V battery all the way in the rear ... a super nuisance if the 12V battery is dead AND you want to get into the vehicle to charge the battery (only the front door has the key backup option). Heads up, just do NOT let the car sit without use OR trickle-charge for 8 weeks .... otherwise, great vehicle !! On forest "roads", TRAIL mode is wonderful.

Very informative video. Thank you very much!

Can you do hybrid SUVs with resale value in mind? Thank you.

I would go Toyota.

Nissan has a very good hev setup, which is just an ev setup with a petrol generator to top up the battery. If only they put a smaller engine engine in it would be more economical, but watch out for new technologies in the engine world we might just see this soon, Liquid Piston, Mazda's rotary, the only downside side is noise off these. They will run on any fuel, including e-fuels.

toyota hybrid is the best.

After owning both Honda and Toyota, I have selected Honda for my last four cars. Honda is more fun to drive and has better road feedback. Toyota and its dealers came up with many ways to have you pay more. Although Toyota is enjoying better reliability but my 97 Camry had paint peeled off and engine burning oil problems. Unfortunately, it did not reach 100,000 miles before retirement.

thanks

Toyota has it down a pat. Very reliable, very efficient, easy maintenance, batteries are relatively cheap to replace and service, very well thought out :) If you can handle the CVT drone, imo, besides Honda, they are the ones to go for.

The Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV does not use a CVT. It does not have a "regular" transmission. It has a single speed transmission, that engages only at high speeds, above 75 km/hr. I would love to hear what you think about the Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV.

You should mention the new Nissan X trail that is offering an innovative hybrid system that does not require plug in and uses a small endothermic engine just to recharge the battery, while all power to the wheels comes from an electric engine ( two electric engines in the case of the AWD version)

Toyota and lexus by far!

As a soon to be buyer, I would choose Lexus UX or Toyota Venza. For all the reasons you listed. I would consider a Civic hybrid when they come out, but, no 4 wheel option and I like the way most 4 wheel cars sit a little higher.

That’s when most wear occurs. Change it at the LATEST every 6K miles.

Excellent choices. Both Toyota Venza and Lexus UX 250h are very reliable. We chose the hybrid UX F Sport and we had zero issues in 5 years, low TCO (Total Cost of Ownership) - despite changing the oil often, at about 5000 miles, having applied chassis rust protection etc. And you get a serene ride, very comfortable and quiet - typical Lexus luxury - and a huge efficiency. The Civic (I used to have one in the 2009-2020 period) is far behind in quality and reliability (Toyota/Lexus is #1 in reliability while Honda dropped in the last decade to #6).

Is there any reason you have not referred to the Nissan e-power series hybrid vehicles? The Note e-powers have been out since 2016 and offer superior economy to most, if not all/any Toyota models. They are also very quick of the mark at around 8 sec 0 to 100kph. Nissan are now using the e-power systems in Quasqai (not sure of spelling) xtrail and Serena Van's. It is also looking like a very simple and reliable system using the tried and tested electric motors (on the smaller cars) from their Leaf models. They do not use a gear box, and run similar to the Leaf when driving. Economy on the Note e-power models range between 23 and 26k per Litre on real driving situations. City only driving is even better than the 26km per litre. Look forward to your reply Shari of the car help corner 🙂

I happen to speak Japanese and shortly after the EU mandate on vehicle electrification, watched Japanese news round tables on the impact on their auto industry. It was commonly understood that hybrids were prohibited because European automakers couldn’t compete with Japanese (I.e. Toyota) hybrid technology, which is far more challenging than BEV. The round table discussants didn’t express resentment, it was more acceptance with some worry about Japan’s capacity urgently adapt to new rules. This was before the U.S. mandate, but the American government motivation seems very similar. Of course, plans in both cases are being stymied by a certain other Asian country.

Less expensive and better mpg

Mitsubishi PHEV

Toyota is knocking it out of the park!

Anyone that is on the market for a hybrid, don’t look anywhere else but Toyota or Lexus. KIA, Hyundai and Honda hybrids are tier 2 and have not proven themselves when it comes to reliability. Don’t even bother with a Ford Hybrid. The Ford CEO needs to be fired. Horrible management team.

Hyundai hybrids don't have alternator as alleged by this video.... the one I have doesn't have.

too bad Honda has not figured out someplace else to put the battery like Toyota did so we can have a spare tire.

The Corolla AWD Hybrid is the sheeeeit.

The best plug-in, but not as good as Toyota/Lexus hybrids.

I have the Outlander Phev 2023 and love it. If most of your driving is non highway and you can charge at home it definitely makes sense. If you do mostly highway then I would skip as it only gets 26 mpg on the highway.
