Three Important Things In The New Toyota Corolla

Toyota Corolla hatchback or Auris, depending on where the car is marketed, got a generation change. Corolla with brand-new make-up will be launched in Geneva later.

The sedan version, also being tested by Toyota, and whenever it appears. The design and specifications are of course changed. But that needs to be underlined there are three new things that may be brought this car. In fact there is a technology that is quite brilliant. These three new things Toyota introduced on 25 February. Anything?

2.0 Liter Engine

Gone is the 1.8 liter engine you normally see in the Corolla Altis . This new engine produces 171 PS, larger than the old machine that 151 PS. Moreover, the torque also jumped from 190 Nm to 205 Nm. For information, the old performance figures can be found in Corolla Altis in Indonesia.

The new engine is called Dynamic Force, which relies on the D-4S injection system. If according to some sources in cyberspace, D-4S combines direct injection system with port injection. If we explain in more detail, you can overslept reading it. In essence, the D-4S produces bursts of fuel and combustion that remain optimal, regardless of the driving conditions encountered. Thus, efficiency and performance, and emissions can be more awake.

Toyota Hybrid System II

Commonly known as THS II. THS is a hybrid drive system that you usually find in Toyota cars that have its hybrid logo . But this time, Toyota gives an update, especially because it is paired with a 2.0-liter engine.

Not mentioned whether the machine is also the same as the Dynamic Force earlier. But for sure, almost all of its performances changed. First, an efficient new Nickel battery with a new cooling system. This battery has a capacity of 6.5 Ah, just like the old one, but the voltage is bigger, 216 Volt, with the number of battery cells up to 180 (formerly 168).

There are also new Power Control Units that are more compact dimensions, paired above transaxle. Overall, according to Toyota, THS II provides a more linear and powerful power delivery to the wheels.

Direct Shift-CVT transmission

Toyota Corolla uses two transmission options. The first 6-speed manual, which is completely new and lighter. The second Direct Shift CVT. It's an entirely new transmission. No one has ever used.
