The predecessor of the Corolla is the AE86. Below is relevant information about the Corolla: 1. Key advantages: Low fuel consumption; comfortable ride with smooth driving; rich and user-friendly interior configurations. 2. Performance: Overall strong performance with quick acceleration, though initial pickup is somewhat slow. The engine operates quietly, with users noting "very quiet operation with minimal cabin noise." However, tire noise becomes noticeable at speeds over 80 km/h, prompting some owners to undertake soundproofing modifications. The new dual VVT-i engine pairs perfectly with the CVT transmission, delivering robust 2.0L power. The six-speed manual transmission offers high precision and clear gear engagement, though the four-speed transmission is relatively outdated.
