A car for life

published

I've owned all sorts of cars - usually expensive German models with fabulous badges but since I moved to Australia I decided I was fed up of paying through the nose for fuel and opted for a Corolla Ascent. I can honestly say I will probably never drive an Audi again. Fantastic car, nice amount of power and costs next to nothing to insure, fix or run.

2015 Corolla - a big disapointment. Big problems that Toyota know of but won't listen!

Perfect first car

published

My Toyota Corolla have got sufficient space. Slightly on the noisier side compared to the speed it is going. There are some blind spots. It's fine once you get used to it.
It's however very cost efficiency, I paid $40 fuel a week compared to my partner who paid $70 a week travelling similar distance. Have not had to repair tot yet
Have no issues whatsoever. No regret buying the Toyota Corolla.

Good small car.

published

Great small car. We had 2 car seats put in the back however we couldn't fit a 3rd. The boot space was fairly generous and we were able to fit a decent amount in there. However petrol wasn't the greatest and used quite a bit. There isn't a tonne of room for passengers but that's somewhat expected from a small car.

LOVE LOVE LOVE MY CAR!

published

I bought an "inferno" (orange) 2013 Corolla Spot 5 door auto. I know nothing of cars, but it is amazing to drive, comfy, and has some guts behind it to get me out of trouble. 7 Speed auto is nice. Very happy with my purchase and everyone that has driven it or been in it has agreed that its a nice little car to drive!

I love this car!

published

The drive is so smooth, especially on a highway. From the minute you sit in the drivers seat you feel like your in a modified cockpit. Yet easy to operate. My favourite feature is the keyless entry and push button start. Still excites me everytime I turn it on. Only bad thing would be the windows sometimes don't feel like there completely up and you can still hear a bit of the wind from outside so it doesn't complete block out sound.

The Second Car

published

Our vehicle is the 5 doorr hatch which allows total access amplified by the folding rear seats.
The car is 6 speed manual and is very zippy and a pleasure to drive long distances. The average fuel consumption around town is 7 L/100 kms. However on the open road 5.8 is very achievable.
Dashboard layout is very functional and the reversing camera a great standard option.

Cant go wrong

published

The toyota corolla is a simple classic. After owning many earlier models, I could not resist buying a new model which is very stylish and modern. For a 1.8L engine it roughly gives me about 550kms and about roughly 7L per 100km which makes it a great zippy car. The new facelift model comes with reverse cam and a touch screen interface for the base model which is what I purchased. Overall, love the car as it is a no brainer not get one. The only downside to this car is the roadnoise in the vehicle.

Perfect car for small family

published

Very reliable car for small family. Mine is hatch back version and very good for carrying goods or large furniture.

Efficient fuel usage and very cheap maintenance costs! Stylish design, easy parking, can hardly hear any noise.

Internal room is fairly good, adjustable back and front seat make it more flexible.

It is small car well designed. The internal space is huge. I feel so comfortable sitting inside. The car is light and so easy to drive. One of the best cars I have driven. The car is low on fuel consumption you can drive forever without refulling. One of the best design in human history

Awesome transport

published

The interior parts of the car are new and easily decorated with floor mats, cushions and seats. The engine is in good condition and 35 litres of petrol can travel around 170 kilometers. The body still looks shiny and I feel normal when driving a ten year old car on the road.

Perfect car for both short and long trips!!!

published

We purchased this car as a second car for everyday short trips mainly for the wife as I lease a Mitsubishi Outlander from work. But we ended up taking it for a 1,500km road trip and was very happy with the performance. It may look small from outside but quite spacious inside and great on fuel. Although the price is little high compared to the similar sized cars of similar quality, we are very happy with it. Great on Fuel too.

A good car

Although it is my first car, I compared it with many other brand of cars before i bought it. The driving experience is really good. It has a good engine and efficient brake system. Besides, the outlook is also my style, not that too big and too small.I like it

very reliable and economical but with some irritating issues.

published

Great little car that is comfortable, easy to drive, stylish, economical and very reliable.However, the USB port is in a very awkward position, under the sound system in a little nook and should be on the radio fascia,The heating system is still using the turn knob technology and you almost have to pull off the road to set it, it should be push button. it does not have rapid demist option that has been around in most other cars for years. The reversing camera is very slow to engage, i have usually finished the reversing maneuver before it comes on.I would have thought Toyota would have had these items sorted by now. Other than that, a great little car.

Excellent Everyday Car

published

The perfect small sized car for anybody.
If you want reliability, good fuel consumption and economical, this is the car to go far. Toyota always have a good interior that focuses on convenience and as I have owned one in the past, Toyotas are easy and cheap to service. For a small car it is quite spacious, best for children but might require something else for adults.

Another perfect product from Toyota
I could not be happier with my little corolla, this looks great, is easy to drive/park and is safe for my family
I can fit all my shopping, booster seat and 3 wheeled pram in with no problem
I feel confident that my corolla although not the cheapest in its price range is worth every dollar and in 10 years from now will still be going well and looking great

Convenient ride

published

Performance is great, fuel consumption is average about 7-8km/litre. I like the legroom and dashboard. Radio still work great with Bluetooth, you can plug your iPhone and paired it. Cabin quite noise proof, kids could happily sleep throughout any journey. You might need to install separate rear and front camera if needed.

afforable price and esthetic!

published

I purchased The Corolla 4 months ago. I loved it when I first looked at and I tried to have a drive. The engine runs smoothly and the gear is so light when you move it forwards and backwards. The overall of the interiors and exteriors are satisfied me. The price of the car wont easily drop as other cars.

Oh, what a feeling.

published

My family prefer driving Toyotas and this Corolla is a joy to drive. The steering is smooth, the car runs well and fuel economy is a dream. It's mainly used for driving to work and going on leisure drives on the weekend & it always gets me from point A to B without any issues. Our mechanic says, it's a great car that doesn't require much during servicing time. My family enjoy owning this car and driving it everywhere.
