Is Corolla under FAW or GAC?
2 Answers
Corolla is a compact sedan under FAW Toyota, equipped with two types of engines: a 1.8L naturally aspirated engine and a 1.2L turbocharged engine. The model with the 1.8L naturally aspirated engine is the hybrid version. More details about Corolla are as follows: 1. Corolla has a wheelbase of 2700 mm, with length, width, and height measuring 4635 mm, 1780 mm, and 1455 mm respectively. 2. The 1.8L naturally aspirated engine delivers 98 horsepower and a maximum torque of 142 N·m, achieving peak power at 5200 rpm and maximum torque at 3600 rpm. The 1.2L turbocharged engine produces 116 horsepower and a maximum torque of 185 N·m, with peak power ranging from 5200 to 5600 rpm and maximum torque available between 1500 to 4000 rpm. 3. Corolla features a MacPherson independent front suspension and an E-type multi-link independent rear suspension. The E-type multi-link suspension enhances handling and ride comfort, differing in structure from conventional multi-link suspensions.
I remember when I bought the Corolla, it was clear that it was produced by FAW Toyota. GAC Toyota mainly handles other models, such as the Camry or Levin. FAW Toyota's domestic factories are located in Tianjin and Chengdu, where the Corolla is assembled and rolls off the production line. I chose it because it's reliable and durable—after several years of driving, it rarely has issues, and maintenance costs are low. As a consumer, I recommend checking the manufacturer information on the sales contract or the vehicle's nameplate before purchasing a car. FAW's logo is FAW Toyota. Although GAC also produces good cars, the Corolla's history has been tied to FAW since 2004. In daily use, the Corolla has a wide network of parts and service centers, making repairs convenient. If you come across a GAC dealer, they won't sell the Corolla but will promote their own models instead.
