Toyota Corolla 2018 LE (1.8L 4cyl 2A) Red

If there is anything stable in the automotive world, it is the efficiency of Toyota's hybrid models. Especially such as the compact Corolla Hybrid, which has shown very good efficiency in real-life Italian roads on the route between Rome and Forlì. This 122-horsepower five-door Corolla 1.8 Hybrid consumed an average of 3.9 L / 100 km of fuel during the entire 360-kilometer test drive, which is equivalent to 25.64 km / L and is the fourth in the ranking of the most economical among non-rechargeable hybrids. For the entire trip we spent 20.98 euros on gasoline. The model demonstrates high efficiency in all modes from urban to suburban. This is exactly what their owners love their hybrid Toyota for and what many of them are ready to confirm by example from personal experience. Such is the new Corolla hybrid hatchback, the successor to the Auris. The aforementioned participant in our next test of fuel consumption in real conditions Toyota Corolla 1.8 Hybrid took the fourth line in the overall rating of the efficiency of hybrids immediately a Toyota Corolla 2018 LE (1.8L 4cyl 2A) Red fter the Lexus CT Hybrid field of 2014 (3.88 l / 100 km - 25.7 km / l) and for some reason the no longer sold diesel mild hybrid Renault Scenic Hybrid Assist (3.6 l / 100 km - 27.7 km / l), as well as the absolute record holder among them, the king of efficiency - Toyota Prius (3.46 l / 100 km - 28 , 9 km / l). The new Corolla hybrid is closely followed by the Hyundai Ioniq Hybrid with 3.95 l / 100 km (25.3 km / l), while the 2013 Toyota Auris Hybrid Touring Sports (4.25 l / 100 km - 23 , 5 km / l) and Toyota C-HR Hybrid (4.43 l / 100 km - 22.5 km / l) lagging behind. Although the latter, like the Corolla and Prius, is built on the same modular TNGA platform. The Corolla Hybrid hatchback that we got for the test in the middle Style trim level is not badly equipped. In addition to 17-inch alloy wheels and LED headlights, its arsenal includes: adaptive cruise control with Stop function For this money, you get a stylish compact five-door with a comfortable, fairly spacious interior and a perfectly acceptable trunk, but, more importantly, a perky controllable hatchback that behaves well on the road. Its low center of gravity makes it great for cornering with minimal roll, and the car's e-CVT gearbox is nicer and more sophisticated. The only thing this car clearly lacks is a more powerful engine (a 180-horsepower 2-liter would be ideal), slightly more legroom for rear riders and a larger cargo compartment. The new Corolla 1.8 Hybrid is one of the most fuel-efficient cars we've tested. It demonstrates minimal differences in performance in different driving modes. In reality, it is quite difficult to make this car consume large quantities of gasoline, since its power unit is tuned for efficiency and as soon as you stop pressing on the accelerator, the hybrid stops “drinking” the fuel and starts “sniffing” it. Suffice it to say that in the busy city traffic in the center of Rome, our "Japanese" consumed an average of 4.7 l / 100 km (21.2 km / l), and in the combined cycle its consumption was 4.1 l / 100 km (24 , 3 km / l). On the highway, the hybrid Corolla showed an average fuel consumption of 5.8 l / 100 km (17.2 km / l), and at the most economical pace, moving at a constant low speed, it reduced it to 3.4 l / 100 km (29, 4 km / l). In the “all money” mode with increased loads during a long climb uphill, the hatch consumed a record 19.2 l / 100 km (5.2 km / l). With regard to the all-electric driving mode, with its use and with zero emissions into the atmosphere, we were unable to cover more than 2 km of path, since the hybrid power unit is configured to constantly switch between two engines, electric and gasoline, in order to travel about half of the way on electric traction.
