In our inherent impression, the price of about 150,000 yuan seems to be able to buy only small SUVs of joint venture brands, and reliable quality and comfort are often only one or the other. Low-level platform, small displacement engine, cheap driving texture, suffocating space experience... Many inconveniences make people regret it. However, the advent of the self-media era, let us get more channels to obtain information, faster, a car conscience or not, often only need to search on the car purchase website, the quality of word-of-mouth cost performance has long been clear at a glance.
Classic inheritance of high-quality word of mouth sharply continues to write the myth of the Corolla family
Trendy design, comfortable spaces, craftsmanship, stable performance, the balanced classic Corolla has influenced generations of people around the world. "Bring happiness and happiness to everyone in the world" is the original intention of each generation of Corolla's research and development, along with every technological innovation of the Toyota brand, Corolla is also constantly leading the development trend of the automotive industry.
Since the launch of the corolla in 1966, its sales in more than 150 countries around the world have exceeded 50 million vehicles, and the 12th generation of model inheritance, coupled with reasonable configuration, good cost performance, high retention rate and excellent reliability, has made the Corolla a legendary model.
Toyota's strength lies in its strong ability to integrate resources, and they are very good at developing new products guided by market demand. Faw Toyota, which relies on Corolla's "one-handed covering" in the compact car market, will naturally not turn a blind eye to the 120,000-160,000-160,000-level compact SUV market.
Faw Toyota SUV family from Rongfang, Lingfang to Crown Land, each of their products has a history of generations. As a brand new product, Corolla Reifang naturally needs to stand on the shoulders of giant Corolla to open this market segment. Corolla's influence is unquestionable, comfortable and durable, reliable and durable, which is also the intuitive impression that Corolla Ruifang wants to bring to consumers.
Summary: The examples of emotional landing and changing brands are too numerous in the car circle, such as FAW-Volkswagen's Jetta, which was once a model and has now become a brand on its own. From the crown of FAW Toyota to the crown of the 7-seat mid-size SUV, it has also completed the transformation of a classic sedan to an SUV. Today, Corolla and Corolla Reifang are also concocting such a relationship. The purpose is to make efforts from quality innovation to category through the good reputation and user base of the original model that is durable, comfortable and stable, and reduce the cost of a new car being re-recognized by consumers.
TNGA architecture is strongly empowered, active and passive security are fully equipped
Today's consumers will make rational comparisons of car choices, coupled with the safety problems of XX brand vehicles that are frequently exposed on social software, so that they also have their own judgments about the good and bad of a car. In the buyer's market, consumers should have more say. In particular, the shocking collision of The China Insurance Research Institute has exposed the original shape of many models that cut corners, and also made the products of many conscientious enterprises known to everyone.
Corolla Respin is positioned as a compact SUV of 120,000-160,000 levels, although there is an overlap with the price range of the joint venture small SUV, but its product strength and platform pedigree are one level higher. In fact, the Corolla Rebahn is not a small car with a raised chassis, but like the Corolla sedan, it is a product of the TNGA-C platform. In terms of safety, the performance of models under the TNGA architecture is quite eye-catching.
Since 2019, China Insurance Research Institute has conducted crash tests on passenger cars on sale at its own expense and made the test results public. However, what is surprising is that the products under the TNGA architecture of FAW Toyota, from Yize to The Asian Dragon, in addition to the maintenance economy index, whether it is the driver's 25% bias collision, side collision, in-vehicle/external member safety index, or vehicle auxiliary safety index, have achieved all-excellent (G) results.
Vehicle safety is no small matter, quality can not be discounted, Toyota TNGA products can achieve excellent results in the Research Institute, the essence is the insistence on safety attributes. Although Corolla Rebbe did not participate in the test at the China Insurance Research Institute, its actual performance will not disappoint everyone, and it is not stingy at all in terms of active safety and passive safety of vehicles.
The multi-function steering wheel is designed at 9 o'clock with the drCC dynamic radar cruise control switch, plus the buttons of the distance adjustment and LTA lane tracking assistance system. These are "members" of the new generation of TSS Smart Mobility Security Systems. In addition, a PCS pre-collision safety system and an AHB auto-adjusted high beam system are included. All of the above features are standard on the Corolla Reiban! The high rigidity of the body and 10 SRS airbags are also well taken care of in terms of passive safety. All these let us see the sincerity of FAW Toyota in quality and configuration.
Summary: The safety-first TNGA architecture, the ga-C platform that has crossed the level, the standard active safety driving assistance and passive safety protection are the primary factors for faw Toyota's products to sell well.
Masculine appearance cross-border style male and female eat-all is not moderate
FAW Toyota Corolla Sharp Fang originally restored the appearance design of the overseas version of the Corolla Cross, the SUV will have an SUV look, and the front face design of the Corolla Sharp Fang is dynamic and masculine. The slender headlights group stretches the visual width of the entire front face, and the interior adopts a blackened design, which shows the dynamic and at the same time has a bit of seriousness.

The rounded rear is three-dimensional and full, and the narrow rear taillights are elegant and stylish. The sturdy rear bumper and the underseason, which is the same color as the body, perfectly echo the front bar. The clever hidden exhaust is also hiding its sharp edge.
Appearance summary: The body size of the Corolla Sharp Fang has a strong advantage in the same class of cars, and the full and dynamic appearance contour, coupled with the thick black front and rear bars and wheel brow wrapping, allows the Corolla Sharp Fang to meet the aesthetic needs of consumers of all ages.
Practical simplicity texture good car machine interconnection is quite dexterous
The most we face in driving is the interior, the screen size is not large enough, the instrument panel is soft enough, the storage groove is not enough, it has become one of the criteria for judging whether a family car is good or not. The Corolla Replay implements the Practical and Simple Design Aesthetics of the Toyota Family, and in addition to the Introductory Pioneer Edition, the 9-inch central control screen of the high-end model stands in the center. The large area of soft material wrapped in the instrument panel, the air conditioning operation panel adopts a physical body button with excellent damping sense and knobs, which meets the practicality and enhances reliability.
The 9-inch central control screen has built-in Toyota Zhixing interconnection system, with its own 4G network, blue background, card-style interactive interface, and is also equipped with speech recognition function. Wake-up through "Hello, FAW Toyota" can realize the operation of adjusting air conditioning, setting navigation, audio and video, opening and closing car windows and sunroofs.
The 7-inch LCD screen in the middle of the flagship dashboard is very dazzlingly designed, and the navigation arrow guidance, driving computer information, and driver assistance function interface are clear at a glance. The instruments of the other four low- and medium-sized models are all single-ring pointer instruments, and the middle screen size is only 4.2 inches.
Interior Summary: Corolla's interior maintains a highly consistent style with Corolla, adhering to the design concept of beauty, practicality and ease of operation. The addition of toyota Chi Heng interconnection system has made Corolla Ruifang's car and machine interconnection keep up with the trend of the times.
The back row of the high door frame and the large skylight is more comfortable to sit on
The seats of Toyota cars are soft and people can't fault them. The front seats are not only well wrapped in the wings, but also the texture of the headrests is not hard, and the driving and riding are very comfortable. Only the Premium and Flagship versions of the main driver's seat are equipped with power-adjustable seats, while the rest are manually adjustable.
The 2640mm wheelbase and rear-high door frame bring passengers a good riding experience and convenience in getting on and off the bus. The large roof of the roof brings better lighting to the interior. The Corolla sharpens the rear row and the middle platform is not high, and there are two Type-C charging sockets under the air conditioner outlet, which is combined with the flagship version's exclusive panoramic sunroof, making the driving experience extremely comfortable.
The luggage compartment of the 438L has a relatively regular volume, and the storage capacity of the luggage compartment is further enhanced by lowering the rear seats. Kick-type electric tailgate opening provides convenience when handling heavy loads.
Space Summary: Soft seats, generous rear space, and large panoramic sunroofs bring good lighting to the interior. The luggage compartment volume of the 438L can also meet the daily travel needs of the family.
The power is smooth, the fuel consumption is low, and the small turning radius is magical
Toyota's 2.0L naturally aspirated + 10-speed CVT transmission can simulate 10 gears, which can meet the smoothness while reliability can also be well guaranteed. The power parameter performance of the maximum power of 126 kW and the peak torque of 205 N·m is stronger than that of the Qashqai, which also uses a 2.0L+CVT transmission. In terms of technology, the 2.0L engine has expanded valve angles and features a long-stroke design, a new electric VVT variable timing valve, and a direct injection injector. With the blessing of new technology, the power is increased and the fuel consumption is reduced, and the comprehensive fuel consumption of the COROLLA Rebbe NEDC is only 5.9L/100km.
After driving the Corolla Sharp Release, the first impression is that the power response is light and direct, and the CVT drivetrain is smooth and not jerky. The response of the accelerator pedal is very sensitive, when slowly pressing the accelerator to accelerate, the engine speed will still rise and fall to show its "selling power", and the linear power output will also make it easy for you to adapt to its rhythm.
When accelerating sharply in the floor oil state, the engine speed will quickly break through 4000rpm, and the slightly raised front of the car will help you complete the overtaking action steadily and smoothly. Unlike small-displacement turbo cars, the acceleration performance of the 2.0L naturally aspirated sharp placement in the middle and rear sections is not significantly attenuated, and the strength is still calm and abundant.
In terms of chassis suspension, the Corolla Relex uses a suspension combination of front McPherson and rear torque beam. The origin of the TNGA architecture, the optimization of the wheelbase, and the hardware of the highly rigid body give the Corolla Sharp Release excellent body stability.
The body dynamic response is flexible and tight, the steering wheel is clearly pointed, although the feedback is not heavy, but when driving at high speeds, there will be no obvious shaking due to potholes in the road. The turning radius of the Corolla Sharpen can be as small as 5.2 meters, and it is very easy to turn around in the narrow streets.
Power Handling Summary: Smooth and brisk power response, tight suspension performance and comfortable steering feel, coupled with a small turning radius, the Corolla Sharp is very balanced in terms of dynamics.
There are a total of 5 models in the Corolla Rebbe series, and the guidance price is 129,800-16.98 million yuan. Just mentioned that the active and passive safety of the whole series is the most conscientious foundation of Toyota products under the TNGA architecture. So from the perspective of comprehensive configuration and price, which car is most worth starting?
Recommended model 1:
Corolla Replay 2022 2.0L Elite Edition
The guidance price is 139,800 yuan
The Elite Edition is a second-level configuration model, which is 10,000 yuan more expensive than the entry-level Pioneer Edition, and the upgrade can be a grade configuration. For example, keyless start, 9-inch central control large screen (with navigation, Internet of Vehicles, voice assistant support OTA upgrade), electric sunroof, rear air conditioning outlet. Although there is no front-and-rear radar and reversing images, these configurations can be installed later. The perfect active and passive security configuration support makes the elite version the first choice.

Corolla Replay 2022 2.0L Premium Edition
The guidance price is 156,800 yuan
The Premium Edition is a secondary top-of-the-line model, and if you're on a good budget, this version is the most worthwhile model to buy. Its guidance price is 7,000 yuan more expensive than the deluxe version, the reversing image is upgraded to a 360-degree panoramic image, the steering wheel is upgraded from plastic to leather wrapping, the seat is upgraded from fabric to leather wrapping, the main driver's seat is electric adjustment + waist support, and the central armrest with cup holder in the rear row. Both are improvements in comfort features and are highly recommended.
Summary: The active and passive security of the TNGA architecture is the foundation, and the balanced charm of 2.0L+CVT is harnessed. Compact but very masculine design, the rear space is spacious and not depressing. It can be seen that Corolla Ruifang, which understands the needs of Chinese consumers, will surely become a powerful dark horse in the entry-level compact SUV market.
