Altis 1.6 2019

[aeroengg]

I have an Altis 1.6 2019. I now have around 5000 kms on it, during drive the car feels underpowered. I have driven on motorway and felt the same lack of power.
P. S. I have deactivated the eco mode.

Please advise what to do? Thanks

Which car you are comparing with?

Try taking drive of another 1.6 and see. I think it is more like feeling .

Use 5w-30 Toyota imported oil. It will improve.

What do you mean by deactivating eco mode ? There is no physical button to turn it off or on. If u are driving with a soft paddle and in a certain speed range it remains on .
Talking about being underpowered , it has ample power for city and highway drive. I have driven my altis 1.6 (2019) for about 4k KMS both long and city drive and it feels optimum to me.
What car were u driving before shifting to altis 1.6 ?

I feel the throttle response sluggish too. You have to sort of floor it to nudge the rpms. Have u been driving hondas?

Compared to which 1.8 model? or you are comparing with some 2.4L car bhai...1.8L Corolla is fastest in its class...in Pakistan at least

Surely u can laugh bro. I already mentioned what's available here in Pakistan. Its faster than civic 1.8 variant. I don't dare conpare Corolla with Audi anyday. if ur car drives like laqwa, have it checked...no one in the world has such issue btw

You can deactivate the eco mode, go to settings in the little screen between your rpm and speed gauges , by pressing right arrow twice (the ones you use to navigate your optrion meter) , over there there will be eco option , from that you can turn it completely off

I never said Pakistan is the world. I have friends keeping Corolla in US and Australia...very happy with car. Corolla is one of the best sellers...leave Pakistan aside. Just living abroad doesn't makes all models shit that are available here locally... If that's the case, toyota would habe discontinued it long time ago. Its not about just economy, u can see Corollas privately owned in KSA as well cheers.

[muhammadadeel96]

Thanks. Will check it.

[fastian04]

Will opt for a 1.8L v12 ferrari next time for pleasure. Funniest logic given

[sajjad_abasi]

Please change your air filtre if dirty change n put genuine spark plugs and put synthetic genuine oil.

My friend if its an auto car then it has the worst transmission of all time in it here in Pak, what did you expect from a puny little 1.6 car. And the worst part if with the lacking power it doesnt even compensate you with a good fuel economy...

Why so frustrated because you own a econo box and since you own it you don't want look bad but wanna look cool and rich guy with a new Rolla underneath.

I also find it funny and bit tragic that our people feel immense pride in something they "buy" which anyone could buy... then they will not hear anything bad about it, there is no sense of ambivalence in our people, either they hate something with their heart or love something without realizing the poor aspects. Defending your purchase like your honor depends on it, is kind of amusing, that we in Pakistan learn to live with.

Secondly, Archon2001, we need to consider the economy and history of our country too, GDP and Per Capita income isnt comparable to Europe or USA, last month I saw (on Youtube) a kickass FJ Cruiser modified extremely by a "nurse" in USA whereas same profession in Pakistan would not reward similarly. Here nurses can barely afford a motorcycle. I hope you understand the point.

Relax...u seem like an inferiority complexed man. I m not writing a technical blog where i need to perform spellcheck. Most people like u commenting on a 1.6L car thread...with examples of 5.7 L cars actually have a funny condition...i own nothing dude..just a cd70...but still better than ur example of condoms...

[fastian04]

Bro everything is considered in its class. U can't compare a corolla with any highend model...read the first post again..take a breath...have a glass of water then see did i ever compare corolla with any nore expensive model?
