I Bought A GR Corolla - The Hottest Hot Hatch!
I Bought A 2024 Toyota GR Corolla Circuit Edition - My Favorite Hot Hatch! Check out the ExtremeContact Sport 02: https://bit.ly/3Ulidu1 Big thanks to Continental for sponsoring this video! When I first drove the Toyota GR Corolla, I knew it was special. Now, I have one of my own - a 2024 Circuit Edition in Flame Blue! This spicy hot hatch features a 1.6L inline 3-cylinder spitting out 300 horsepower and 273 lb-ft of torque, a 6-speed manual transmission, and a sophisticated AWD system that can vary the front/rear torque split from 60:40, to 50:50, to 30:70 - enabling a front or rear biased driving experience! The Circuit Edition features some special touches, like a forged carbon-fiber roof, a larger rear spoiler, and this exclusive blue color. The video will cover the following questions: 1) What's so special about the GR Corolla? 2) How does the GR Corolla AWD system work? 3) Why did I choose the GR Corolla over the Golf R or Civic Type R? 4) Why not pick up the new 2025 GR Corolla? A big thank you to Continental, XPEL, and Elite Window Tint for their support!

Why is this Chinese electric car the world's best selling car
At the beginning of 2021, Tesla Model 3 lost its leadership among the best-selling electric vehicles in the world. In this ranking, it had to give way to the small Chinese hatchback Wuling Hong Guang Mini EV, which in just a few months managed to gather a whole army of loyal fans in its homeland. Now how did that happen? We will tell in this review! Sales began in July 2020 and withing the first twenty days the Mini EV manufacturer received 15,000 orders. For six months, this number increased eightfold and amounted to 120,000 cars. And according to the results during the first two months of 2021, the Chinese baby became the best-selling electric car in the world, leaving behind the permanent leader Tesla Model 3. Such impressive sales dynamics were made possible by the unprecedentedly low price of this electric car: just over $4,200 in the basic version and about $5.5 thousand in the improved configuration. For comparison, the price of the Tesla Model 3 in the domestic car market in China is about $42,000, which is 10 times more expensive than the Mini EV. #car #electiccar #china Don’t miss next videos: Press the little bell ((🔔)) to get notifications Production Music courtesy of Epidemic Sound https://www.epidemicsound.com/
