Review
Well here is a short review based on my personal experience
People may have different opinion but im writing what i felt about this car
- EXTERIOR
Exterior is pretty stunning
Paint finish is not so good only on door handles
Rest paint finish is good
Side mirrors are too cool but view wise previous model had better mirrors
Headlights on low have lesser light than previous shape
I simply love the tail lights when they are on... the glowing tube thingy is amazing
O need to go for after market ones
Chrome quality is also good
Dont like the tire gap at all
Even if we go for bigger rims the gap is still there unless you drop the car
2.INTERIOR
Interior looks old but when you get used to it then its wow
Control over gadgets eg. Ac and audio player is easy, you dont have to stretch your hand
The soft padding of the upper portion of dashboard is good but its getting dryness too quickly
Plastics are not that good maybe bcoz of black color, spots of wet cloth remain visible
Seats are comfy, better than previous shape
Leg room is good
I miss the cup holders in front doors though
Map lights are useful for reading, happy that they gave it in xli too
Interior lighting is just wow, its cool color never disturbs the eyes
No ashtray and no lighter was a big disappointment for me as im a smoker
Steering aslo looks good and feels good
Sounless cabin, sometimes cant hear the horn of my car when windows are closed
Overall interior is good, its a new thing new design
People may find it ugly in pictures believe me its much better than that
- Drive and performance
Well drive wise its smooth and soft as every previous model corolla was
Suspension is soft
Eps is a bit too light, maybe changing tires will increase the grip
Never hits any bump
To me it remids me of my city idsi
It had almost same drive suspension wise
Engine is soundless
Same pic as before
Havent checked actual average figures yet but it is very economical in city drive
Overall a good sedan
