New Corolla automatic locking tutorial: 1. Close all doors, do not step on the brake; 2. Press the ignition switch once to the ON position (some models require pressing twice, such as the Sylphy and Bluebird); 3. Press and hold the lock button for 6 seconds; 4. The hazard indicators will flash twice to indicate successful activation. The Corolla's body dimensions are 4630mm in length, 1775mm in width, and 1480mm in height. It is equipped with Michelin 215/45R17 tires, TRD Sportivo high-performance shock absorbers, TRD TF4 17-inch sport rims, reinforced clutch, and high-performance brake pads, ensuring excellent sporty performance.
I've been driving the new Corolla recently, and its auto-locking feature is quite thoughtful. After I park the car, take the key, get out, close the door and walk away, the system detects that the key has moved outside the vehicle. After about 30 seconds, it automatically locks all doors, including the trunk. This relies entirely on smart key technology – small sensors in the car track the key's position. If the key is inside the car or too close, it won't trigger the locking to avoid locking the key inside. I usually enjoy adjusting settings; you can modify the waiting time or completely disable this function in the dashboard menu. In case you park in crowded areas, this feature can prevent theft, which is particularly reassuring. Just remember not to leave the key in the trunk, otherwise the system might misjudge. Overall, the new Corolla's smart system enhances daily convenience and reduces worries about forgetting to lock the car.
