Outline
Advanced Equipment that Surpasses the Compact Class
1. A rearview monitor displays an image of the area to the rear of
the vehicle while backing up to reduce the burden on the driver
when parking (standard on all Corolla Axio models).
2. The optional advanced Intelligent Parking Assist system supports
steering operations when parallel parking and backing into a
parking space. Ultrasonic sensors installed on the front of the
vehicle detect other parked vehicles and based on the results
estimate the physical dimensions of a vacant parking space and set
the target parking position.
3. The Corolla Axio features a new Pre-crash Safety System that
uses millimeter-wave radar. When the millimeter-wave radar detects
a high risk of collision, the Pre-crash Seatbelts provide better
initial restraint capabilities for passengers while the Pre-Crash
Brake Assist system decelerates the vehicle to reduce the collision
speed and contribute to less collision-caused damage.
The new Radar Cruise Control system detects and monitors the
preceding vehicle and the lane, maintaining a fixed distance
according to the preceding vehicle's speed within a preset range of
speed.
3. Exterior Evokes a Sense of Energy While Interior Displays High
Quality
Based on the Toyota-brand design philosophy "Vibrant Clarity", the
exterior evokes a sense of relaxation and vitality despite its
compact size.
4. An attractive front end is created through a design that unifies
the hood with the bumper between the fenders. A door line flowing
toward the rear and the rear pillars establish a side view that
creates a sharp and stylish image.
5. The rear view is formed by combination taillights with a
distinctive design and a clean, supple surface. The rear pillars
sweep downward to create a gently arcing character line that
displays Corolla Axio's stylish nature.
The superior package achieves compatibility between a body size
that affords excellent maneuverability and an interior that is
comfortable and relaxing.
The front corners have been given a curved design to achieve
effective maneuverability.
6. The backseat floor hump is minimized to create flat-surfaced
legroom, enabling three adults to sit in the rear comfortably
(front-wheel-drive models).
7. The steering wheel has a telescoping function that allows its
position to be adjusted front to rear for a comfortable driving
posture. To enhance visibility, the top surface of the instrument
panel is low while the front pillars have been extended forward and
made slimmer.
8. The Smart Entry & Start System employs a Smart Key to lock
and unlock the doors and a button to start the engineall one needs
is to have the vehicle key on one's person or nearby.
9. The HDD (hard disc drive) navigation system features a 6.5-inch
wide display screen and a 30GB high-capacity HDD, as well as a
variety of multimedia functions and advanced navigation
functions.
10. New Powertrain with Outstanding Driving and Environmental
Performance
11. The new Corolla models feature a new 1.8-liter 2ZR-FE engine
and Super CVT-i (Super Continuously Variable
Transmission-intelligent) transmission developed as the main
powertrain for compact and medium-class vehicles.
A newly developed 1.8-liter 2ZR-FE engine adopts Dual VVT-i (Dual
Variable Valve Timing-intelligent) that optimizes both intake and
exhaust to achieve smooth and powerful acceleration, while offering
fuel efficiency and environmental performance at class-leading
levels*.
12. Both the 1.8-liter and 1.5-liter engines are combined with a
newly developed Super CVT-i transmission for smooth cruising and
linear acceleration without shift shock, as well as for a quiet
ride and improved fuel efficiency.
13. The new Corolla models adopt a light-weight, high-rigidity body
that seeks both a quiet cabin and superior aerodynamic properties;
it uses an advanced chassis to achieve performance that makes it
truly possible to experience the joy of driving.
14. Key components of the front and rear suspensions have been
optimally tuned to provide brisk maneuvering and cruising
stability, as well as a comfortable ride.
