Corolla is produced by FAW. It belongs to the compact car category, with body dimensions of: length 4635mm, width 1780mm, height 1455mm, wheelbase of 2700mm, fuel tank capacity of 50 liters, trunk capacity of 470 liters, and tire specifications of 195/65R15. The Corolla is equipped with a 1.2T turbocharged engine, delivering a maximum power of 85kW at 5200-5600 rpm, and a maximum torque of 185Nm. It is paired with a 10-speed continuously variable transmission (CVT), featuring MacPherson strut front suspension and E-type multi-link independent rear suspension.
I recently bought a Corolla and was excited to research its brand background. Actually, in China, the Corolla is produced by FAW Toyota, while GAC Toyota mainly focuses on similar models like the Levin. Before purchasing, I searched online and found that FAW Toyota has a long history. After its joint venture with Toyota, it produces the Corolla in places like Tianjin and Chengdu. It's a classic family sedan—not only durable and fuel-efficient but also easy to drive in the city, with comfortable seats and affordable maintenance. As a daily commuter choice, this car has always had high sales. I recommend beginners take a test drive to experience its handling—it’s definitely worth the money.
