I try to Beat WLTP Fuel Consumption on Toyota C-HR Hybrid 2023

Today we have right here Toyota C-HR hybrid 2 liter petrol engine version and in this video we will try to get the best consumption ever driving in a city and also a little bit on the highway so I will be really excited we will drive without climatic system and we will see what kind of consumption we will get from this Toyota C-HR hybrid version and I want to point out that Toyota claim that you can get the VLTP estimated consumption it's 5.3 liters and I want to see if I can beat it today so yeah let's drive it guys and let's see the consumption so let's drive the car first of all I want to put my seat belt press the brake press the start button right now the car it's on and it's starting electric mode we will go in reverse first of all I want to stop the climatic system completely turn it off I want to reset the consumption that was 4.5 previously and let's drive it let's go in reverse and let's drive it guys I will open the windows a little bit because it starts to be hot outside 27 degrees and we will just drive like that I want to show you also the nice graphic of the car with the battery and I will explain you as we drive how the the car it's function as we go in this video I want to give you also some technical data about the car so as I said the version that we have today it's the hybrid version that comes with two liter petrol engine combined with one electric motor and a small battery 1.1 kilowatt hour battery that it's under the seats the back seats of the car so yeah there you can you can um you can see it also here like a nice graphic with what happened in real time with the battery with the motor and also the petrol engine so right now the petrol engine it's running and it's sending the energy into the battery to charge it a little bit and yeah we will see as we go I will try to drive as normal as possible but in the speed limit and I will also try a little bit to to get the best consumption now if we go here on the drive mode you can see that we are in eco mode we have sport normal and eco mode we will drive in eco mode and we will see what kind of consumption we can get also climatic system it's off and we will drive with the windows a little bit open and also I want to tell you one more thing you can make an extra extra thing to have some air inside here if you turn on the ventilation only the ventilation from the vents without climatic system you turn off climatic system and you can leave only the ventilation on and in this way you can save energy and this ventilation will send some air inside the cabin and it will yeah make a little bit of fresh air inside and maybe a little bit cold air it consume much much less energy than the climatic system so this is a tip for you but today we will take it off completely the temperature outside 27 degrees and because the sun it's coming directly to the car we have a little bit of we have a little bit of you know this feeling of hotness inside the car everybody's so nice here everybody let me go in very nice people anyway now we are in electric mode the car drive only in electric mode you can see the electric engine it's running and in this kind of traffic I think the car is doing lovely you know when you have stop and go if you have enough battery the car will drive only with electric battery and this is just fabulous for the consumption right now our car doesn't consume any fuel at all in comparison with the car next to me that it's a diesel and you can hear the diesel you can hear the vibration from here and we are right here inside it's super silent it's super no vibration it's clean it has it has all the advantages and I said in my videos previously that if you if I recommend you something for example if you don't know what to buy like plug-in hybrid mild hybrid or full hybrid I recommend you to get full hybrid like this toyota chr because it has a bigger battery enough bigger battery a bigger electric motor and also a petrol engine if you want to go for long trips and it's it's better because you don't have to charge it at all it's charge itself while you're driving it recuperate the energy back into the battery and it has all the advantages possible for for for a car so from my point of view yeah just go full hybrid if you're not ready for full electric right now because the battery was quite lower it's charging it start the petrol engine as well and I noticed that the car system you know the management system of the hybrid system doesn't allow the battery to go under two lines or over over two lines on the upper side so it stays always between 20 and 80 percent that mean in this way they can improve the longevity the life of the battery so it stays perfectly where it should be and yeah as you probably know toyota have some some incredible engineers when it comes to hybrid systems they are one of the best in the world so the cars not only that are very reliable but they are also very very smart you know it's a smart system that you don't have to understand it will actually work for you and it will give you the the best performance and efficiency ever another thing important is that toyota in some countries offer seven years warranty in some countries six years warranty and up to 200 000 kilometers that's insanely good and for the hybrid battery it offers 10 years warranty for this battery so they know what they do and they know that this will last for for many years and now we just recuperate back the energy into the battery and we will try to anticipate the traffic and we will try to get the best consumption out of the car we will still keep staying between the lanes and right now it's driving electric you can hear a little bit the engine how it's rev on zero to 100 the car can do in 8.2 seconds 180 kilometer per hour is the top speed the drag coefficient c 0.32 and yeah the comfort over the bumps is great i said that in the test drive video visibility good comfort on the seats very good it's very assisted it's not a super sporty car so don't expect to have a crazy sporty car but it is a car that's that's very efficient very reliable very comfortable very good also for for the highway in general from my point of view it's it's really really good now we will anticipate the traffic we will go back a little bit in the city so the consumption is going down 8.8 liters slowly slowly we win back the energy that we lost there in the parking lot and in the in the beginning where was traffic the more you drive the more you understand the system and the more you can anticipate the traffic and you you learn how to drive it economical you know you start to learn car the more you stay with the car the more you you understand how you should drive to get the best consumption and again here is just recharging we have battery right now is driving only in electric mode also as i said in other videos over the bumps is doing great very comfortable very silent very easy to drive in the city it's very smooth it's not a sporty car so don't expect to be sporty and also in in the curves at high speed it doesn't have great handlings but in terms of comfort and easiness to drive it's just it's just super super good we have seven liter consumption until now and it's going lower and lower we will drive in the speed limit car can read also the traffic speed limits now we go downhill a little bit we have a speed bump we brake slowly and then right now the car will recuperate some energy back into the battery also the pedals feel super smooth and nice it's pleasant it's like driving an electric car you know because it has this ecvt transmission with one speed it's crazy easy to drive and it feels like an electric car the only thing that you hear when you press the acceleration hardly is just the engine revs are a little bit too strong but in general it's it's smooth and nice and right now we recuperate the energy press the brake slowly we have 5.8 liter consumption so we just recuperate a little bit of energy down there and right now we go back to the we can get here go here it comes also with all the technology like blind spot in the corners of the mirrors it comes with adaptive cruise control lane assist and all that safety features the only thing is that i show you already in the test drive video in this video it's all about consumption but if you want to see the the more information and how it works autopilot check out the other videos where i show you a little bit more information we have 5.8 liter consumption until here we go uphill so we can right now we have some traffic ahead and i want to show you something really interesting you will see that from here until the the first stop we will drive only in electric mode because we have enough battery there we have 5.6 liter consumption until now and you will see that from here until in the front there we will get only an electric and this is the the most advantage of the full hybrid and in general electric cars if you don't drive with climatic system on or with the heating on you will not use any petrol or diesel at all because we drive only with the electricity that we we had recuperate over the drive you know when you brake when you don't go downhill the battery is recuperating and now it's using the energy in this traffic to move the car and is doing it in a clean way clean for environment for the air and stuff like that and also in a very silent way and pleasant because it's no vibration it's silent it's clean it's it's super super nice also if you need a little bit of air you can turn on the vents you know and even the vents without the climatic system it's just the ventilation system will bring a little bit of air inside the cabin without the need to open the windows you know you can close the windows and you can turn on the vents and it will come inside the car a little bit of more wind and will be much more clean you will have much more clean air inside the cabin and we still have 5.5 liter consumption until now toyota claimed that you can get the consumption on the on this two liter version it's vltp 5.3 liter and we will see what kind of consumption we will get right now you can see it goes even lower it's like 5.4 liter consumption because right now we drive only in electric mode it doesn't use any petrol and the consumption is go even lower like 5.4 it's it's crazy you know like where other cars for example right now use a lot of gas and combustion and for us it's it's like lovely and for the people that have a full hybrid so from my point of view this full hybrid it's it's it's a must have these days if you want to save a lot of money and if you want to drive clean and in the same time because the maintenance on this full hybrid is not different than the maintenance that you have for for a normal combustion engine car so you don't have to worry that you have to charge the car to change the battery and stuff like that you just have to just have to go to to maintain the car the same as you go for a normal combustion engine car and if we close this and you can see with the ventilation system on it's the same story as without it because if you're not activated the climatic system from here the consumption will be the same because this ventilation system it's acting like a home ventilator you know that's using very very small amount of energy maybe three watts or something like that three four watts it's it's using very very less and that mean you can have this ventilation inside the car and in the same time you can have a great consumption you know it's like a tip if the temperature is not super super hot you know and uh it's livable i should say you can use this ventilation system without any problem and look how how how cool it is and look at there even with the ventilation system on we have right now 3.5.3 liter consumption it's go down to 5.3 liter so actually we win energy right now in this driving style in comparison with with other cars so how cool is that 5.3 liters it's going down in the ventilation system it's on if we close this open a little bit the windows just like that and then you can win even more energy so it's lovely this system it's it's crazy good for a petrol car hybrid like this 5.3 liter in this kind of traffic and this kind of driving condition it's not good it's just fabulous it's fabulous good so right now we still drive in electric mode all this area here where was traffic we drive only in electric mode because the battery has enough uh enough power and you can see right now we still have half battery 5.2 liters consumption we beat the estimated vltp this is just fabulous news i mean i like that toyota really said really do what they said you know like if they say vltp 5.3 liter that mean it's very very possible to get this consumption uh and look at the conditions i mean if i drive on normal streets you know like constantly with speeds up up to 100 kilometer per hour you can get incredible consumption and for the city this car it's a bless great consumption great job great job toyota 5.3 now we accelerate we use a little bit of petrol engine we will go right here 5.3 liters and we drive constantly at 50 kilometer per hour this is the the maximum speed in the city i don't want to exceed this speed i just want to keep in this range i don't recommend you to drive too fast it's it's not it's not okay for you and it's not okay for the other traffic participants you know it's not safe five liter consumption until now we anticipate the traffic we see that we get another traffic ahead of us and we brake slowly you know and right now we recuperate a lot of energy back into the battery 4.9 liter super good 4.9 liter consumption and now we use again the electric engine and the electric motor and the battery so that mean probably until in the front where is the stop stop light traffic lights we will win some more energy back into the battery so that should be good man look at this only electric relaxing nice i'm curious what kind of consumption i can get from this trip but you can see those conditions here are quite worse you know like oh a little bit of dust we can turn on again the the vents you know just the vents inside the car just ventilate a little bit the interior without using the climatic system and then you immediately feel like the the breath the fresh air and a little bit of lower temperature inside here 4.9 liter yeah see it stay there it stays in 4.9 liters right now the vents are on but you can see even with the vents on we still have 4.9 liters consumption so it's pretty good the consumption the car come also without a hold so you can activate it from here all you have to do just press the brake and the car will hold for you don't have to hold your foot on the brake all the time so all those systems are so simple and i like that they have physical buttons easy to adjust um lovely lovely systems we still drive uh in electric mode so it's clean right now in this moment i think after you drive one of those full hybrids from toyota it's really hard to go back driving a normal pure combustion engine car it's really really hard you know when you see how silent and how clean it is you understand how good is this system then you know that it's hard to go back it's no vibration no sound quiet silence clean it has all the advantages you know like less pollution around you you have you can save more money you have less um vibration and less noise around you so overall it's it's really really good i i definitely like that and we can go a little bit lower with the vents and we still keep these windows closed sound insulation is pretty good it's super super silent inside here it's also very comfortable on those seats 4.9 liter we still have 4.9 liters and we can get even better than that right now in this moment we don't use any energy we just sit here and wait and this is the advantage in super traffic like that the advantage super traffic like that the advantage is that we don't use energy on full hybrids or plug-in hybrid and electric cars as well but the disadvantage of the plug-in hybrid is that when you for example don't have energy anymore you have to charge it of course it's charged itself while you're driving like this one but the battery is much more heavier and make no sense to carry so big battery if you don't charge it so that's why i said you know if i will have to go back to to choose another car that's not electric i will definitely go with the full hybrid because i think those are the best way to go and the best systems if you're not going electric so now we have five liter consumption we go a little bit uphill so it's normal to consume a little bit more energy and i want to open the windows again so make a little bit more fresh air here 4.9 it's going back to 4.9 liters we accelerate slowly and when you accelerate slowly you cannot hear this this engine you know like you can't hear the the engine noise you go uphill downhill and the car should recuperate the energy back into the battery and you can also anticipate the traffic and see what it's ahead of you and then press slowly the brake and it will recuperate the energy back into the battery so smooth it's so smooth the car it feels really smooth 4.9 liter until here 4.8 liter we still win some energy back into the battery 4.8 liters cool and now we drive only in electric mode still driving in electric mode we can also turn on a little bit the the vents here to have a little bit more fresh air but without the climatic system just the vents 4.7 liter you see it's going down right now when you drive like this in this crowded traffic the consumption you win much much more energy back into the battery so you have even better consumption 4.7 liter look at that so so good so good so still 4.7 liter consumption we are almost done with this so we will turn around here and then we will we are really close to end up this video let's go here we will end up this video right here guys so we have 4.7 liter that's the consumption that we get until here and i think i can get even better consumption if i will try a little bit more so as you can see 4.7 liters 4.6 liters yeah we win some energy back you can see i mean if you drive in this kind of conditions like traffic slow go and stop usually here the most of the the cars will use much more energy but not these full hybrids where you can win a lot a lot a lot of energy and this is really really good check this out 4.6 liters so anyway um how to hold all the functions are here we will actually end up this video here because we don't have space in the front to park the cars so let me show you actually the consumption one more time to see it so 4.6 liter and i think i can get even better consumption if i have even better condition of driving so you can see also here the trip information history 4.6 liters great consumption man and here i think you can see also the the date and the previous driving really cool really really cool so that was all guys for today i hope you you get some useful information i hope this is helping you with your choice now let me go let me park it here behind a little bit and then we will end up this video it's also the reverse camera it's very very clear and yeah perfect just like that good put it in park i like the fact that when you put it in park the electronic brake it's going it's turned on automatically 4.6 liter you see the trip you see the information as you get as we drive i hope the video was useful if you like it please like share subscribe also thank you very much to all of you that watching my videos it's a pretty good consumption from my point of view for the condition that we had i think it's it's lovely the worst i don't think you can get worse than that in the city so that was the info that was the video i hope you enjoy it don't forget to like share subscribe thank you very much for watching my videos stay safe and i see you soon in the next one bye guys
