The eleventh generation was first introduced to society in 2013. Regularly making changes to the lineup in accordance with changing requirements, Toyota at the same time does not deviate from the traditions originally laid down in the Corolla model. Exceptional reliability and high consumer qualities are once again confirmed in the 2015 model.

Previous Corolla models were distinguished by a wide variety of trim levels and, in particular, the number of power plants offered. The 2015 Toyota Corolla has not departed from this tradition, and even vice versa, if earlier the region of distribution influenced the number of configurations offered, today most of the options for every taste are available for each of them.

With each new generation released, the design appearance acquires more and more sporty features on the verge of aggressiveness and elegance. The most significant changes occurred in the form of optics, both head and rear, which received a more elongated shape with the transition to the side surface of the body. Toyota in the new body received, on the one hand, more all sorts of lines and angles, but on the other hand, all these lines smoothly merge into one another, creating a streamlined shape.

Even looking at the photo, and not just live, it is difficult to confuse a new car with a different model, it looks so modern.

The eleventh generation of the Corolla is not available with a hatchback body type, having only a sedan and station wagon for the domestic market.

Salon

The front panel of the Toyota Corolla in 2015, as in previous models, did not receive any special changes, remaining the same minimalistic, but with a convenient location for literally all controls.

On the multifunctional steering wheel, the control buttons for the car radio and on-board computer are concentrated.

The salon has an inexpensive, but practical upholstery in discreet shades. The shape of the seats is optimally matched in the car, despite the weak lateral support.

Visually, the car has a small length, but the driver and four passengers feel quite comfortable inside the car. Those sitting in the back need not worry that their knees will rest against the backs of the seats, and their head will reach the ceiling. Yes, and in width, three passengers in the back row of seats do not constrain each other.

To ensure safety, even the minimum equipment is equipped with at least two airbags.

Engine and transmission

For new car Toyota Corolla In 2015, the manufacturer offers three types of engine in a wide range of displacement - 1.33 l, 1.6 l and 1.8 l. It should be noted that the most powerful and voluminous 1.8 liter engine has never been previously installed on cars intended for sale in the territory of the CIS countries.

The power of the junior engine is 99 hp. With. with a flow rate of 5.6 liters on the highway and 7.2 liters per hundred kilometers in urban mode. The average engine already has 122 hp. With. and consumption of 1 liter more. And finally, the most powerful power plant has 140 hp available. With. with fuel consumption in the city within 8.3 liters per hundred kilometers.

The kit offers a choice between a six-speed manual transmission or a CVT. Motor 1.8 is equipped only with a variator. Different configurations are different power plant as well as additional options.


Unlike robotic gearboxes, a CVT transmission somewhat reduces fuel consumption with a slight deterioration in vehicle dynamics.

Suspension

The new car did not require interventions in the suspension and steering, since previous models have proven themselves in this matter only from the best side.

The power-hungry suspension settings are good for comfortable riding on rough roads or highways. The small clearance spoils the impression a little ( ground clearance), which is still only 150 mm. On the other hand, the owners of domestic automotive vehicles do not experience discomfort with the same clearance in the absence of normal roads. Moreover, this factor is taken into account by the manufacturer in the form of enhanced individual elements pendants.

It is quite possible that precisely because of the compromise between lowering the center of gravity and cross-country ability, the manufacturer does not change the clearance in most Corolla models throughout its release.


Conclusion

Specifications of the updated Corolla allow us to conclude that this car has not lost its competitiveness and looks quite worthy so that motorists pay attention to it Special attention. The offered complete sets and the prices for them are capable to satisfy the majority of wishes. Of the shortcomings, only the low ground clearance of the car should be noted, which is not an obstacle if there is no need for frequent off-road trips.

So, my friends, for many this is not news, but for sure there will be people who will benefit from my information.
Let's talk about springs.
I got sick of this question a long time ago, while still owning a Toyota Echo.
Surfing through the expanses of the web, I remembered Drome and already there I found a branch and a specific topic of an intelligent author-experimenter TYNTS.
In short, the essence of the topic is to find a compromise between maximum ground clearance and handling.
I must say right away that I gave a topic to get acquainted with someone else's experience in order to find OWN.
A friend also had an Echo and we put HVAC on him, since he dangled a lot and not always alone and not always on good roads, his conclusion was that it became MUCH better and more comfortable, it doesn’t break through when people are behind and doesn’t catch on a country road .

Life has made another round and I'm going to buy Echo, bought "Cardinal".
And again there were old questions with clearance.
The car has not yet been raised for the revision of the hodovka, and therefore I was puzzled in advance what I would do.
My vision is spacers, of course it's cheap and cheerful, but for me it's better to replace the springs with the best performance than regular ones.
The choice is obvious for me personally - these are HVAC springs

"There are four types of OBK springs:
1. Standard - standard springs restore the car's factory settings;
2. Reinforced - due to the special processing of the bar, a greater spring stiffness is achieved;
3. Variable stiffness (double-winding) - a specially designed spring design more effectively dampens vehicle vibrations, as a result, driving comfort increases;
4. To increase ground clearance (Backlash) - a spring to raise the car by 2 inches (5.08 cm) without violating the geometry of the suspension.

OBK numbers can have two formats - old and new. Old OBK number format: FOBTO2A890, ROBHOS10A01.
The first character indicates the location of the spring: F - front - front, R - rear - rear. OB is short for Osaka Bane.
The fourth and fifth characters are the brand of the car: TO - Toyota, NI - Nissan, SZ - Suzuki, HO - Honda, etc.
The second part of the OBK number repeats the second part of the original number: 481312A890, 52441S10A01.

New OBK number format:
C4T42102, C4M22662, where the third letter is the make of the vehicle
(T - Toyota, H - Honda, N - Nissan, Z - Mazda, M - Mitsubishi, B - Subaru, I - Isuzu, S - Suzuki, D - Daihatsu), and the last digit is the installation location (1 - front, 2 - back).
The four digits in the middle are the serial number according to the OBK catalog.
The springs are packed in boxes of 2 and are marked with original and OBK numbers.

Judging by the official site; OBK
Black - regular
Gray - HD Type - Heavy Duty Rigid
Yellow - HDD Type - Heavy Duty Double
Red -4WD 2 inch up type - Increasing ground clearance by 2 inches
Blue - 4WD 3 inch up type - 3 inch higher ground clearance

Decide on black
The most common reviews are that black ones should not be ordered - the rod is thin, like on the original old-style spring, the length is standard, there is a possibility of repeated drawdown.

Further gray and blue
Reinforced (HD) - due to the special processing of the bar, a greater spring stiffness is achieved. In practice, the clearance increases by 2-5 cm, depending on the condition of the old springs.
And here a discrepancy arises, since many people simply order reinforced springs without extension, and they receive springs in size as black, only blue or gray. Or when ordering blue springs, they get a longer version than regular ones. Marking is also H, H *, HD. By "*" I settled on the option: H* and HD are one and the same, while it was indicated that the first designation is just a newer one.
The most appropriate answer seemed to me, where the color of the spring depends on the market: blue for Europe, this is the same as for Japan, silver (they are also gray). The blue ones that many received, they are the same in length as the standard ones, only the bar is thicker, these are springs not for overestimation.

New Toyota Corolla once again radically changed its technical characteristics. There are even more fans of this legendary car around the world. In Russia, not everything is so rosy, but lovers of the new generation Toyota Corolla are here too. This article is especially for them. Today we will show photos, videos and talk about the characteristics of the Corolla and the price of this car.

The new generation of the sedan was increased in size, the body was lengthened by 8 centimeters, but the wheelbase received as much as 100 mm of extra space. To improve the aerodynamic performance of the body new Corolla done a little lower. For Russia Corolla 11th generation in the back of E170 collected in Turkey. Naturally, due to the sharp fall of the ruble, the cost of a car in recent times has grown significantly. As a result, sales of the model are falling, but Camry is being chosen more and more often, because due to the domestic assembly, Camry is preferable both in terms of price and other indicators.

We will not talk about the exterior design of the new body for a long time. Before us is a new corporate style of a Japanese company, which we see not only on the Corolla, but also on the same Camry and Rav-4. We are watching a photo new Toyota Corolla from all angles below.
