What is the power output of the Corolla Sedan gasoline version?
2 Answers
The power output of the Corolla Sedan gasoline version is 85kW. Taking the 2021 Corolla Sedan gasoline version as an example, it is a compact car with body dimensions of: length 4635mm, width 1780mm, height 1455mm, a wheelbase of 2700mm, a minimum ground clearance of 152mm, and a curb weight of 1335kg. The 2021 Corolla Sedan gasoline version features a MacPherson strut front suspension and an E-type multi-link rear suspension. It is equipped with a 2.0T turbocharged engine, delivering a maximum horsepower of 116PS and a maximum torque of 185Nm, paired with a 10-speed continuously variable transmission.
I'm a Corolla 1.5L owner and have been driving it for over two years. The fuel version mainly features a 1.5L naturally aspirated engine with a maximum power of 89 kilowatts, which converts to 121 horsepower. In actual driving, it's perfectly adequate for city commuting—the acceleration isn't aggressive but very smooth. If you opt for the 1.2T version, the power is slightly lower at 85 kilowatts (116 horsepower), but the mid-range acceleration feels more responsive once the turbo kicks in. I've driven both versions, and the 1.5L is more fuel-efficient. However, it can feel a bit underpowered when climbing hills with the AC on and a full load, though it's perfectly fine for solo driving. When buying a car, it depends on your needs. If you frequently drive on highways, the 1.2T is recommended. For pure commuting, the 1.5L offers better value for money, and the transmission tuning is smart, with barely any noticeable jerkiness.
