Does the Corolla have an automatic locking function?
2 Answers
The Corolla does not have an automatic locking function. The relevant introduction of the Corolla is as follows: Dimensions: The body dimensions of the Corolla are 4635mm in length, 1780mm in width, and 1455mm and 1435mm in height. Engine: The Corolla is a compact car under FAW Toyota, equipped with a 1.2T turbocharged engine and a 1.8L naturally aspirated engine. The cylinder arrangement is L-type, with 4 cylinders and 4 valves per cylinder. It is equipped with a 10-speed continuously variable transmission and an electronic continuously variable transmission. Suspension: The Corolla's suspension system adopts a MacPherson independent front suspension and an E-type multi-link independent rear suspension. The front brakes of the Corolla use ventilated disc brakes, which have a relatively complex manufacturing process.
The auto-lock configuration for the Corolla indeed varies by model. My friend bought a 2022 Corolla last year, and it has this feature—when the speed reaches around 10 km/h, the doors automatically lock. For new car owners, this is quite convenient, as you don’t need to manually operate it, avoiding the risk of accidentally opening the door while driving. Especially if there are children in the car, the system automatically prevents the doors from being opened casually. If you drive an older Corolla, such as a pre-2015 model, it might not support auto-locking, requiring you to manually press the lock button each time you get in. It’s advisable to check the vehicle manual to confirm whether your specific model is equipped with this feature. Additionally, the modern Corolla’s safety system is well-designed, with auto-lock working alongside the anti-theft system to further enhance vehicle security. You can test it yourself by driving slowly on a flat road to see if the doors lock automatically. If not, you can visit a 4S dealership to inquire about possible upgrades or adjustments. Overall, this feature is very helpful for urban driving.
