Toyota launches Corolla travel version, equipped with 1.8-liter dual-engine power, but unfortunately it cannot be introduced into the country

There is a car model that is very popular in Europe, but it has no market in China. This is the travel version. Magotan has also launched a travel version before, which is the Volkswagen Welan. Although the model is very beautiful, the Chinese people do not buy it, so Toyota has not dared to try this, although its best-selling model Corolla already has a travel version overseas, but unfortunately it cannot be introduced into the country. So whether this model is not strong enough, or Toyota really does not want to get into trouble, let's first take a look at the specific situation of this model.

From the actual car picture, we can see that Toyota's overseas version of the travel Corolla model is based on the Toyota Corolla. It is positioned as a compact car. The overall aura is very good. The front face basically continues the Corolla. The big mouth design, the large air intake grille and the headlights on both sides are matched. The headlights are shaped like a sickle, and the visual impact is still very strong. Of course, from the side and rear, the overall model is very full and heavy. Because of the travel version, the side looks very slender, with dense-spoke wheels, rearview mirror door handles and car body colors in the same color. There are no chrome strips on both sides of the window, and the sense of unity is very strong. The tail is very full and flamboyant, and the arc-shaped design is also very distinctive. It matches the headlights on both sides, and the design of dual exhaust pipes on one side also makes it very sporty.

In terms of interior, the travel version is basically similar to the Corolla we see in China, and looks simple and layered. The steering wheel design is also more dynamic. The large suspended central control screen and the instrument panel still have a certain sense of technology. The interior seats and storage space are very sufficient, especially in terms of storage. After all, the travel version The wheelbase has been lengthened by 60 mm, and the trunk volume has also been expanded to 598 liters. The rear seats also support a 4:6 folding ratio. The overall expansion space has even reached 1,658 liters. It is worthy of being a travel version, and it is quite suitable. defined by the model itself.

Finally, in terms of power, the Toyota Corolla overseas travel version is equipped with a hybrid system of a 1.8-liter naturally aspirated engine and an electric motor. Its maximum output power reaches 73 kilowatts and the peak torque is 142 Nm, while the electric motor The maximum power is 54 kilowatts and the maximum torque is 163 Nm. The transmission system is matched with an E-CVT gearbox.

Overall, it is very good, but Toyota will most likely not introduce it to China. After all, the acceptance of the station wagon model is very low in China. Toyota, as a conservative Japanese car company, will most likely not take risks easily. , so everyone can just take a look at this model and don’t have too many fantasies.
