How many kilometers can a Toyota Corolla travel on a full tank of gas?
2 Answers
Toyota Corolla can travel 500 to 700 kilometers on a full tank of gas. It is a compact car. Taking the 2021 Corolla Pioneer Plus version as an example, its body dimensions are: length 4635mm, width 1780mm, height 1455mm, wheelbase 2700mm, fuel tank capacity 50 liters, trunk capacity 470 liters, and body structure is a 4-door 5-seater sedan. The 2021 Corolla Pioneer Plus version is equipped with a 1.2L turbocharged engine, with a maximum horsepower of 116, maximum power of 85 kilowatts, maximum power speed of 5200 to 5600 revolutions per minute, and is paired with a 10-speed continuously variable transmission.
I've been driving a Corolla for several years now, and I remember the fuel tank is around 45 liters. The average fuel consumption is about 5 liters per 100 kilometers, so a full tank can easily cover 900 kilometers. If I drive more on highways with smooth traffic conditions, reaching 1,000 kilometers is quite common. In city traffic with frequent stops and starts, it might drop to around 600 kilometers. Don't underestimate driving habits—sudden acceleration and hard braking are gas guzzlers. Keeping a steady throttle and avoiding speed fluctuations can add dozens of kilometers to your range. I think the Corolla is indeed fuel-efficient, one of Toyota's design highlights, and it's especially comfortable for long trips—fewer refuels mean more savings. Weather also plays a role; using the heater more in winter slightly increases fuel consumption, and the same goes for air conditioning in summer. Overall, temperature differences can cause a range fluctuation of dozens of kilometers, which is normal. For more precise measurements, record the mileage when you fill up and calculate after driving—this method gives more reliable results.
