    i wish you would have compared it to the CT4-V BW more since you drove them close together.

    It has all terrain tires and all terrain plastic. That's it. Not even a full-size spare tire 😢

    As for the trim package you would like to have on smaller trucks, try the Colorado ZR2. Love your video btw. Not many guys taking their testing vehicles offroad like you did.

    Nice video! I'd love that with a 6 speed manual, but even with the CVT I'm definitely interested. There was some noise in the video, was that by any chance the extra CVT cooler that's equipped with?

    I have a 2024 and the fake stock Falken 01 Tires are total junk, not snow rated. I had to replace them with real Falken Wildpeaks, that are severe snow rated. Shame on Toyota for putting these junk OEM tires on this car.

    Those Dunlop SportMaxx 060 are fortunately NOT run flat tires :-) Interesting spec, but I highly recommend driving a 2024 Coupé - feels like a different car.

    Great review! I have one in my garage 2015 with performance package (carbon/TVD) 20 K miles - its my summer car. Coming back to the car...........most of the talk is about it being overweight or few tenth of a second slower than the european competition, however unless you track which most of us who own this car dont you will not feel or appreciate those (weight and speed) differences in daily driving. Instead in my humble opinion most of the talk should be around its rewarding daily driving experience, reliability, ease of maintanence and lexus service experience. For unreliable, punishing daily ride and pricier option but with which comes with a lot of bragging rights regarding being faster than this for a few tenths of a second or lighter in weight PLEASE buy BMW M4 or C 63. No hate replies PLEASE!

    Those panoramic sunroofs are terrible, you are always exposed to sunlight even with the screen closed. I would rather see them focus in higher quality materials and eliminate that hole in the roof. I couldn’t agree with you more about their decision to eliminate the Golf wagon!!

    I have a 21 and it has been wonderful. I appreciate the tech changes for 24 were driven by feedback. The downside is they butchered the dash to put the new screen in there. Mine has the older Michelin run flats and they seem to be the preferred rubber. I have a second set of wheels with Pirelli winter tires so I can use it year round in Chicago.

    great review and car! not sure I'd agree that auto journalists have overlooked this one though... seems to be a darling among all the ones I've seen. though they do seem to struggle with how best to classify it - there are faster, more practical, more utilitarian, more modern but few if any cars have an actual parallel in the price range.
