Is the Corolla Front-Wheel Drive or Rear-Wheel Drive?
2 Answers
The Toyota Corolla is front-wheel drive. The Corolla is equipped with a newly developed inline 4-cylinder 1.8L engine (2ZR type) featuring dual VVT-i technology. Paired with either a 6-speed manual transmission or a 4-speed automatic transmission, it delivers a maximum power of 103kW/6000rpm and a peak torque of 175N·m/4400rpm, with performance slightly superior to the current Corolla model. Additionally, there is an optional 1.6L engine that also utilizes dual VVT-i technology. The new COROLLA consists of two models: the 10th generation "COROLLA Corolla," which features a newly developed platform, engine, increased vehicle dimensions, and a new design, and the successor improved model of the current Corolla, the "COROLLA EX Corolla."
I have always been a loyal fan of the Toyota Corolla, having driven several generations of the car. Without a doubt, the Corolla is front-wheel drive. Front-wheel drive means power is delivered to the front wheels, providing better traction on slippery surfaces, such as during rain or light snow, making it less prone to skidding. From my personal experience, driving the Corolla is very smooth when turning in the city or climbing hills, with excellent fuel economy, making it cost-effective for long-distance trips. Why has Toyota consistently stuck with this design? Primarily because it offers high space utilization efficiency, with more room in the rear seats and trunk, as there are no rear-drive system components taking up space, making it ideal for family trips. As a globally best-selling car, the Corolla's front-wheel-drive configuration makes it more accessible and durable, unlike some rear-wheel-drive cars that are troublesome and expensive to maintain. If you're looking for a practical and reliable daily driver, the Corolla's front-wheel-drive structure will definitely not disappoint you.
