How many kilometers can a Corolla travel on a full tank of fuel?
2 Answers
With a full tank of fuel, the Corolla can travel approximately 500 kilometers under mixed driving conditions, and around 700 kilometers when driving solely on highways. Below are specific details about the Corolla: 1. Body Dimensions: The new Corolla measures 4653mm in length, 1780mm in width, and 1455mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2700mm. Compared to the previous model, it is 15mm longer and 5mm wider, while the wheelbase remains unchanged at 2700mm. This wheelbase is sufficient to meet the needs of daily family use for the Corolla. 2. Powertrain: The gasoline-powered version is equipped with a 1.2T engine, delivering a maximum power of 85 kW and a maximum torque of 185 N·m, paired with a CVT transmission that can simulate 10 gears, resulting in more responsive power delivery.
I've been driving a Corolla for two years now, and it's been especially worry-free on long trips with a full tank. The fuel tank is about 50 liters, and under normal driving conditions, it can cover 800 to 900 kilometers on the highway, dropping to around 600 kilometers in city traffic with congestion. It really depends on how you drive—sudden acceleration and hard braking will increase fuel consumption, so maintaining a steady speed of 60 to 80 kilometers per hour is the most economical. On my last road trip from Beijing to Shanghai, covering over 1,000 kilometers, I only needed to refuel once, and there was still some left when I returned. The Corolla is truly the fuel-saving king among family cars. Maintenance is also crucial—regular oil changes and air filter replacements can keep fuel efficiency above 12 kilometers per liter; otherwise, it tends to drop as the car ages. If your car is still in the break-in period, driving more on the highway will help the engine run smoother, naturally optimizing fuel consumption. In short, a full tank is enough for a week or so of commuting—no need to worry about running out of fuel halfway.
