You may have experienced a Toyota Corolla once in your life. The term dull was just right for the vehicle by this name. But this is not going to prevail for long. It is expected that the new Toyota Corolla will be out in August in Australia and with it, the whole concept of this car is going to change.
And much more is expected to happen when the 2019 Corolla sedan is going to come out. It is expected that Toyota Corolla is going to lead in the safety measure side and there will be no car safer than this. A much more attractive number of features are going to be standard throughout the range of Corolla. The predecessors were dated not containing the excitement present vehicles encompass in terms of technology and driving dynamics.
But this face-lift will really show how an old car is learning new tricks. The exterior is made stylish like vehicles are these days and the interior has become classy. The effort is remarkable put into overhaul this Japanese make under the car-loving CEO Akio Toyoda.
A new four-cylinder 2.0-litre petrol engine is going to replace the old 1.8-litre giving more power to the vehicle than before. There is also a hybrid engine introduced but it is still to be tested to reveal what in actual it is capable of.
The engine easily develops 126kW in just 6600rpm which is good news for the thrilled drivers. This means revving this machine is not a problem nor does it mind. The peak torque of 205Nm can be reached just 4800rpm which is a good figure and make the Corolla an efficient one than before.
The sporty side of the new Toyota Corolla can be well detected by the way its powerful engine supplies power. There is a good road grip of this one with good steering control and an improved suspension further enhances the driving experience. The more you take it to the turns the more enjoyable it gets.
It is crisp on turns with a firm hold and the response of steering is amazing. With its low price it is an approach and when bought it is fun to drive with its cabin giving a classy feel and an executive feel.
There is an advanced road scanning technology going to be introduced in the new Toyota Corolla. Adaptive radar-based cruise control, automatically adjusting high-beam headlights and self-governing emergency braking that detect cars, pedestrians and cyclists on road are all standard throughout the range.
For those sold in Australia, they get seven airbags, a reversing camera, a pre-collision system, active cruise control, lane departure alert, steering assist and automatic high beam as standard on all Corollas. Just one or two safety extras are reserved for specific trims and will not be present in every model. These include a blind spot assistant and road sign assist; these are included in the package named Safety Sense 2.
