May doesn’t like the manuals for automobile owners.
YouTube continues to be a hot spot for unboxing videos. James May is the latest to join the party with a large one. Captain Slow is responsible for getting the Toyota Yaris GRMN out of a huge package.
May is clearly aware of what YouTube is popular because he uses the ASMR and video rant categories of online videos. May begins by gradually removing the pull tab from the box one at a time. This builds anticipation and delights in the sounds it makes. May also enjoys taking the windshield protector off his car. Toyota added cardboard protection to the seats, steering wheel and gearshift, adding an extra layer of excitement when unboxing.
May will start to complain about the automotive owner’s manuals once the Yaris has been removed from the box. May hates the slew of warnings that are included in these manuals, such as the dangers of driving while pregnant and the misuse of seatbelts. May believes that a manual should not be required because the vehicle’s functions should all be obvious from behind the wheel.
May will be lucky to find a Yaris GTRMN, as there are only 400 of them in Europe . This limited-edition hot-hatch features a supercharged, 1.8-liter four cylinder that produces 209 horsepower (156kilowatts) as well as 184 pound-feet (253 Newton-meters), of torque. A six-speed manual drives the front wheels. The only available gearbox is the six-speed manual. This setup allows the Toyota to reach speeds of 62 mph (100 km/h) in just 6.2 seconds. It also gives it a top speed at 143 mph (223 kph).
The Yaris GRMN is not available in the United States. According to reports, Toyota is considering dropping the Yaris from America. The small vehicle isn’t very popular in America. The company sold 24,521 units in the U.S. from January to October 2018. This is a 37.9 percent drop year-over-year.
