What is the minimum ground clearance of the Corolla Cross?
1 Answers
The minimum ground clearance of the Corolla Cross is 145mm, with a front MacPherson strut independent suspension and a rear torsion beam non-independent suspension. Advantages and disadvantages of high ground clearance in vehicles: The advantage is that higher ground clearance provides better off-road capability. Additionally, vehicles with higher ground clearance generally offer drivers a better field of vision and improved visibility. The disadvantage is that increased ground clearance raises the vehicle's center of gravity, resulting in reduced stability during high-speed driving. Advantages and disadvantages of low ground clearance in vehicles: The advantage is that lower ground clearance naturally lowers the vehicle's center of gravity, making it relatively safer and more stable on the road, especially when driving on highways, where safety is enhanced. The disadvantage is reduced off-road capability, making the vehicle more prone to scraping the undercarriage. The choice depends on the vehicle's intended use and road conditions. Generally, for urban driving with good road surfaces, vehicles with lower ground clearance are preferred for increased stability and comfort. For long-distance travel or driving in areas with poor road conditions, vehicles with higher ground clearance are recommended to enhance off-road performance and avoid undercarriage damage. Specific choices can be made based on individual needs.
