Now about the shortcomings of the Toyota Corolla car

Reviews indicate that the main disadvantages of the machine are rigid plastic and rigid suspension. When driving on marshy or simply uneven roads, plastic in the salon begins to creak. For the sake of justice, we can say that there are no such problems on a straight, level track. Rigid suspension affects the level of comfort when driving, as it allows you to feel all the potholes and irregularities on the roads. Low ground clearance - the car catches bumper curbs on arrival. The fart box has 5 positions - and the last gear is switched at a speed of 50-60 km / h. Accordingly, when driving in a city with pedestrian crossings, turns and traffic lights, they have to switch nonstop.

The machine without problems gets into a strong frost below 25 degrees, keeps the road well even at high speed, obeys the steering wheel and brakes as soon as it is dug in. A large trunk makes the family happy, who have to carry a voluminous cargo in the car, for example: tents, blankets, food and other necessary things for a picnic. But a long cargo, such as skis, can no longer enter the trunk of the car Toyota Corolla. The owners' testimonies testify that this car breaks rarely, but in case of a breakdown it will be necessary to give a round sum for the components.

In general, it can be said that Toyota Corolla is quite a comfortable and reliable Japanese car, adapted to Russian roads and climate. A stylish modern car stands out amongst others on the road, and also allows the driver to feel confident and calm in the way.
