Differences Between Corolla and Corolla Dual E+?

[DiJonathan]

Here are the specific differences between Corolla and Corolla Dual E+: 1. Hardware: The Corolla Dual E+ adopts lithium-ion batteries, which have the same size as the nickel-metal hydride batteries in the Corolla Hybrid but offer higher energy density. Other distinctions include the charging control system and an external charging port with charging unit. 2. Driving mode: The hybrid system of the Corolla Hybrid intervenes during vehicle startup, uphill driving, and acceleration to provide greater torque output, with the motor assisting the engine. However, due to its smaller onboard battery capacity, it cannot support long-distance pure electric driving. In contrast, the Corolla Dual E+, equipped with a larger power battery, typically achieves a pure electric range of 50-100km, allowing it to function as both a pure electric vehicle and a fuel-powered car. 3. Usage cost: The operating cost of a hybrid vehicle depends on fuel consumption. Comparing their fuel efficiency, the Corolla Hybrid has a combined fuel consumption of 4.2L/100km as per the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, while the fuel-powered Corolla version consumes 5.8L/100km, resulting in a fuel-saving effect of approximately 27.6% for the Corolla Hybrid.
