Toyota Corolla (12th Gen)

Was hoping the new corolla is fast but...

2019 Toyota Corolla 2.0 petrol 0-100km/h & engine sound - YouTube

0-100 is at 9 seconds. Similar to the mazda 3 2.0.
Strangely the honda jazz 1.5 with manual transmission is faster than both these cars at 0-100.

The Jazz is much lighter. I think the Jazz 1.5L MT is just a few kilograms over a ton.

the dynamic force series of engines are for fuel economy. Toyota achieved best in class FE without hybridization. if Toyota wanted to make the fastest compact. they could've done it. but thats against their philosophy

Yes... at least its reliable since its the only engine in the compact segment that I know which has both port and direct injection. Wish they’d fitted it with the 8 speed auto though.

Well that's somewhat disappointing though not unexpected, knowing how TMP always overprices their products while removing so many of the important features available in other brands.

Still, I wouldn't mind getting one for the wifey to replace her aging love life Corolla. I just wish they would release the Hatch version locally too.

if you compare it to Civic with the price range ng Civic (1.1M) you will really see na bitin features ng Altis V. sana wag nila ipantay sa presyo ng Civic dahil olats sila sa power features.

Ay, sayang chance na sana bumawi ng Toyota eh.

Ang pangit nung "Altis" version, parang Camry eh.

Miles better yung front ng US/Japan version. wtf Toyota.

Hopefully standard ang Toyota Safety Sense.

I like the us version more. Looks wise it is a keeper. Why is toyota maintaining 2 faces for the corolla?

Looks almost like a totally different model. I hate it when Toyota does that to it's secondary or even tertiary markets.

As if we don't deserve the better looking models. Or they will offer them on a 'By-Order' basis at a premium price, while in North America even the base model looks better.
