How is the safety of the Corolla?
2 Answers
The safety of the Corolla is at a mid-level, certainly not comparable to luxury cars. Greatest advantages of the Corolla: Low fuel consumption; comfortable ride, relatively smooth driving; rich and user-friendly interior configurations. Power of the Corolla: Overall power is good with quick acceleration, but the start is relatively slow. The engine noise is small, with users commenting that 'the sound is very quiet, and the noise inside the car is minimal.' However, when driving exceeds 80 kilometers per hour, the tire noise becomes significant, leading some owners to modify their cars for better sound insulation. The new dual VVT-i engine pairs perfectly with the CVT continuously variable transmission, with the 2.0L engine providing ample power. The six-speed manual transmission is highly precise with clear gear engagement, but the four-speed transmission is relatively outdated.
I often pay attention to car safety, and the Corolla really excels in this aspect. It has received many five-star ratings in new car evaluations, such as excellent results in the European NCAP crash tests. Toyota's installed safety systems include a pre-collision assist system that can automatically brake to prevent rear-end collisions, as well as lane-keeping assist to help correct minor deviations while driving. The airbag configuration is comprehensive, with multiple front and side airbags, and an energy-absorbing body design that provides significant cushioning during impacts. Overall, driving this car on highways or in city traffic is reassuring, especially with its fast radar response that helps avoid minor accidents. Daily maintenance is simple, and the safety components are durable, making it suitable for both family and commercial use.
