What is the total weight of the Corolla?

Corolla weighs approximately 1.2 tons, and about 1.77 tons when fully loaded. The following is an introduction about the Corolla: 1. The Corolla, formerly translated as "Corolla", is a brand of Toyota Motor. The Corolla is comfortable to drive, relatively stable, and has low fuel consumption, making it a cost-effective model suitable for family use. 2. The new generation Corolla is built on the TNGA-C platform, with the rear suspension upgraded from a torsion beam non-independent suspension to a multi-link independent suspension, while the front suspension continues with the MacPherson independent suspension setup. 3. The Corolla's interior is wrapped in large areas of soft materials, with TNGA seats, a PM2.5 filtration system, and independent rear air vents. It comes with a 12.1-inch and 9-inch central control screen, providing users with a comfortable driving experience and convenient access to a full sense of technology. 4. The Corolla is equipped with a 1.2T turbocharged engine, with a maximum power of 116Kw and a peak torque of 185Nm, meeting the National VI emission standards. The half-cylinder intelligent start-stop technology allows users to experience unparalleled start-stop smoothness in its class. The engine uses a water-cooled intercooler, significantly reducing maintenance costs.
I previously looked up the data on the Corolla, and its curb weight fluctuates between 1,280 and 1,420 kilograms, depending on the trim level and engine type. For example, the base 1.5L manual version is lighter, while the higher-end hybrid with a battery pack adds some weight. When I changed the tires, I lifted the car’s chassis and noticed the materials are quite solid—the frame uses double-layered stamped steel panels. A heavier body does make highway driving more stable, but it can increase fuel consumption by about half a liter per 100 km. If you frequently drive in the city, it’s better to avoid the heavier versions to reduce engine strain during frequent stops and starts. When buying, it’s a good idea to take your family for a test drive to check the steering effort—if it’s too heavy, it might tire out female drivers.
