What does Corolla TRIPA mean?
2 Answers
TRIPA is used for calculating mileage, a feature present in all vehicles. Adjusting the calculation of driving kilometers: The Toyota Corolla's instrument panel features TRIPA and TRIPB, two separate functions for accumulating mileage. These can be directly adjusted on the dashboard, distinguishing them from the total odometer reading. The calculation of driving kilometers starts from when the function is activated. About Corolla's evolution: The predecessor of the Corolla was the AE86. The Corolla's body dimensions have significantly increased compared to the previous generation Corona, presenting an unprecedented 'wide and low' stance while also creating a more spacious interior. The newly developed 1.6L and 1.8L engines with dual VVT-i technology promise a more powerful driving experience.
I guess 'Corolla tripa' refers to the 'Trip A' function on the Toyota Corolla. As a veteran Corolla driver with 20 years of experience, I use this feature frequently. It's essentially a mode of the onboard trip computer, designed to record the distance, average speed, and fuel consumption of a particular journey. For example, I switch to Trip A every time I commute to work to track the mileage of that trip. After resetting, it starts counting anew, making it particularly useful for monitoring changes in daily commuting fuel efficiency. If the screen displays gibberish, it might be due to a stuck button or wiring issues, and it's best to have it checked at a 4S shop. I also use it to plan long trips, such as calculating the distance from home to a tourist attraction, which is more convenient than using a phone. However, remember not to operate it frequently while driving—safety first!
