A-class car market has always had a solid performance that is hard to shake, because within a limited pricing range, most manufacturers are trying their best to reduce costs "for volume", and consumers have already accepted this conventional result. Knowing that the vehicle has some dissatisfaction with it, and having to compromise and accept it, this seems to have become an "unwritten" regulation in the auto market.
But there are exceptions, and that is the Corolla from FAW Toyota.
Since its inception for decades, the cumulative global sales of Corolla have exceeded 49 million, with the growth of generations of users. Why is Corolla, which has continuously become the global single-model sales champion and successfully set a record, can be so "sustainable"? This should be attributed to its clear grasp of consumer demand and continuous improvement of technical strength. We have a profound experience from the 2021 Corolla that was recently sold to the market.
The biggest highlight of the 2021 Corolla is the new 1.5L engine. With more reasonable engine weight and axle load distribution, it not only has better fuel economy, but its handling performance has also been steadily improved.
Fundamentally speaking, the engine has a lighter mass, smaller volume, and lower friction, resulting in lower fuel consumption performance, with fuel consumption per 100 kilometers as low as 5.1L. The 1.5L engine has no compromise on power performance. Through the optimization of fuel injection, the power output of the 1.5L engine is equally fast, with a maximum power of 89kW and a maximum torque of 148N·m.
At the same time, in this car, you can not only experience the driving pleasure brought by the TNGA architecture to achieve the low center of gravity of the vehicle, but also feel the greater space in the car. The 2021 Corolla wins consumer recognition with pragmatism as the standard. The widened body and lowered chassis are one of them.
Based on the space layout of the previous Corolla, the front seats of the 2021 model can be adjusted back by 40mm, the sliding range is expanded by 20mm, and the steering wheel angle is changed, which is more ergonomic while driving. The posture is also more calm.
In addition,The elevation angle of the rear seats of the vehicle has increased a lot, and there is also more space to install sound insulation materials, and the comfort of the rear seats has also been significantly improved. Whether it is for elders or child safety seats, it can be more convenient to use. It can be said that Corolla still has "no rivals" in terms of economy and practicality.
In order to let consumers spend every penny on the bright spot, the 2021 Corolla has also been adjusted for the configuration functions, the most obvious is the change of the 1.2T model. Among the original 5 levels, the Pioneer version and the Elite version are added to the Pioneer PLUS and Elite PLUS versions.
1.2T Pioneer PLUS is equipped with reversing image, one-button start, remote control of the Internet of Vehicles, and sports-style seats. The 1.2T Elite PLUS is equipped with 16-inch aluminum alloy wheels and sports-style seats, making it more personalized from the inside to the outside. At the same time, the original sports version was renamed the Elite SPORT version, with matt silver exterior mirrors on the exterior, front and rear bumpers also turned silver, and the interior stitching changed to orange, presenting a more combat and publicity visual effect.
It can be said that the 2021 Corolla has not only maintained the excellent genes of the same line, but also broke the circle of family cars and formed a brand moat that is difficult to break. It is believed that the launch of the 2021 Corolla will definitely increase the happiness index of young people and create a "target" for more competitors to pursue.
