All-new Toyota Corolla hits market …a car with everything - including soul
It
is no secret that the 12th-generation Toyota Corolla has soul, which enables the
sedan to be driven with feeling. Toyota cars are particularly robust,
especially within the cabin and wheel areas. It is really fun to get into a
Corolla because it has a boisterous personality. It is also a rock-solid appliance that you can
rely on.
After spending time
behind the wheel of the new Toyota Corolla, I am very influenced by the
fact that it has soul. Whaaaat? Complete with an audio-infotainment upgrade
that I would highly recommend, the Corolla is a sedan that made me fall in love
with it.
The new Corolla is more than just a car
Toyota
Ghana Company Limited’s blurb says “Nothing has changed. Except everything”. Needless
to say, the overall look of the new Corolla is more energetic than most of the
contemporary vehicles around. With the edgier styling and
more engaging handling, Toyota has given car lovers an opportunity to love a
car that has soul.
Traits
of words like efficient, reasonable and dependable are the likely top of mind
blowing when it comes to the new Corolla. Undoubtedly, the Toyota has rendered
more visually-interesting than perchance it’s ever been; with a large grille,
dagger-like headlamps and wheels spanning up to 18-inches. It’s a bystander to
be unquestionable and arguably a more gorgeous choice.
Toyota’s Corolla is
now a car that’s actually fun to drive. Complete with paddle-shifters and
comfortable seats striped with stitching that contrasts against its upholstery,
the Corolla is really coming out of its shell.
The
all-new Corolla feels sporty enough to make driving to work, practice, or the
school drop-off and pick-up line more fun. This is a car that has always been a
reliable commuter. It features fantastic fuel economy and amazing value.
However, the Toyota Corolla hasn’t always been known for its spunk or sparkle.
Overall, the new Corolla has proved itself to be a compelling and engaging car
that even wowed my son.
It’s a family ride
Ensuring
that there’s a version of the Toyota Corolla for every buyer and budget
for its size, the new Corolla accommodates my family of four pretty
well. The little covers over the latch points in the rear-bench are easy to
remove. However, I can imagine myself losing and then wishing for them after
the car seats are outgrown and we no longer have use for them.
The soul of the car
Regardless
of transmission, the new Corolla comes with standard active safety features
such as a pre-collision warning system with automatic front-braking,
lane-departure warning, lane-keeping assist, and automatic high-beam
headlights. A touchscreen infotainment system is also standard across the
board, with a 7-inch unit sitting in the centre stack of the base and a larger
8-inch unit dominating the dash of all other trims.
Plus, the moon-roof
and stitches made everything a little more fun. The Corolla handles well and
feels secure through corners and at speed on the highway. For a practical
family car, it gets the job done plus some perks.
A sport-mode gives
the gas pedal a bit more oomph - plus, the dash display turns red when it’s in
sport-mode, which my boy loved. Overall, the new Toyota Corolla is an
excellent all-around car with modern exterior styling, plenty of standard
safety and tech features, and some fun extras.
Finally, I would surely
recommend the Corolla to anyone that does a lot of driving and wants to stick
with a car for its practical fuel economy and would like a 3-year warranty.
