The forerunner of the “eleventh Corolla” was the “Furia” concept, shown at the very beginning of 2013 (in Detroit) - but it was so “futuristic” that it would soon appear production car It was hard to believe... However, already in the summer “ American version"cars, and by the end of the year the E170 model began to conquer European markets (including Russia).

Of course, the serial embodiment of the sedan does not look as “bold” as the concept, but it has “borrowed” a lot from it - the changes in appearance, in comparison with its predecessor, are dramatic: it is no longer an “ordinary modest fellow”, but rather an “emotional dandy”.

In June 2016, an updated version of the four-door appeared before the Russian public - the modernization affected the exterior and interior, as well as the list of offered options, but bypassed the power palette. However, Toyota engineers weren’t sitting “completely idle” either – the car’s shock absorbers and springs were reconfigured for a more comfortable ride, the electric booster calibrations were changed and noise insulation was improved.

Appearance Toyota Corolla 2017 model year made in accordance with the new design principle “Under Priority” (“Emphasis on the lower part”) - the car is moderately sporty, fresh and aggressive. The sedan looks most advantageous from the full face, and all thanks to the narrow headlights (all LED in the “top” versions) and the “grin” of the sculptural front bumper. But from other angles there is simply nothing to reproach the “Japanese” for: a harmonious and tightly built profile with correctly outlined wheel arches and expressive stampings and a solid rear with faceted lights and a “plump” bumper.

Concerning overall dimensions, then the eleventh generation Corolla fits into the concepts of the “golf” community: from nose to tail, the three-volume car measures 4620 mm, and its width and height do not exceed 1775 mm and 1465 mm, respectively. The length of the wheelbase of the four-door is 2700 mm, and the clearance under the “belly” in the Russian specification is 150 mm.

Inside, the 11th generation Toyota Corolla, even before restyling, demonstrated an attractive, modern and even moderately presentable interior.

After the update in 2016, the car’s interior has, of course, become more modern... but some may think that its design is too “exuberant”. Be that as it may, the main “attraction” of this interior is the 7-inch touchscreen “TV” of the multimedia system, “heading” the center console, under which is nestled a cool dual-zone “climate” unit (but all this is the prerogative of the “top” trim levels, while while basic versions are content with a simpler entertainment complex and air conditioning with three “knobs”).

But also others interesting details the car has enough - “turbines” of ventilation deflectors along the edges, a laconically beautiful and exemplary informative “instrumentation” and a three-spoke steering wheel with a pronounced relief. A good impression is made by the decoration and quality of finishing materials: high-quality plastics, appropriate glossy and “metallic” decor, pleasant fabric upholstery.

There is not much to say about the front seats of the eleventh generation Corolla - they have an ergonomic profile with well-developed sidewalls and wide adjustment intervals. The back is no less comfortable than the front - a well-shaped sofa with an optimal backrest position, an almost flat floor and a lot of free space.

Volume luggage compartment at Japanese sedan"Golf" class is 452 liters. The back of the “gallery” is transformed in a ratio of 60:40 (but does not form a flat “rookery”), and a full-fledged spare wheel on a cast disc.

Specifications. In Russia, as in Europe as a whole, the 11th generation sedan is offered with three petrol four-cylinder engines, two of which were borrowed from Auris with significant modifications.

• The simplest Toyota versions Corolla is designed with a 1.3-liter naturally aspirated “four” with a distributed power supply complex and a 16-valve timing belt, developing 99 Horse power at 6000 rpm and 128 Nm of maximum torque at 3800 rpm.
• The cars in intermediate solutions are equipped with a 1.6-liter engine equipped with a variable valve timing mechanism on two shafts, multi-point power supply and 16 valves, the output of which is 122 “horses” at 6000 rpm and 154 Nm of torque at 5200 rpm.
• For those for whom “younger” units are not enough, fully equipped aluminum engine 1.8 liter with a 16-valve structure, variable valve timing system ( Dual VVT-i) and consistent fuel delivery, generating 140 horsepower at 6400 rpm and 173 Nm of torque at 4000 rpm.

There are two transmissions for the Toyota Corolla 11th incarnation: a 6-speed manual and a continuously variable Multidrive S variator with seven “conditional” steps. “Manual” transmission is available for 1.3- and 1.6-liter engines, and “automatic” is installed by default only with 1.8-liter engines (for the “average” version it is optional).

It’s difficult to call the Corolla dynamic – even with the most powerful engine this sedan reaches a maximum speed of 195 km/h and reaches the first “hundred” after 10.2 seconds. The initial engine allows the car to accelerate to 100 km/h in 12.6 seconds, providing peak capabilities at 180 km/h. Depending on the modification, the four-door consumes from 5.6 to 6.6 liters of fuel in combined mode.

The “eleventh” Toyota Corolla is built on a modernized platform of its predecessor with extensive use of high-strength steels in the body structure and transversely placed power plant. Schematically, the suspension is typical for the C-Class - MacPherson strut architecture at the front and semi-independent beam at the rear ( transverse stabilizers based “in a circle”).
The steering complex of a three-volume rack-and-pinion structure with electric amplifier management. The car “shows off” completely disc brakes(with ventilation on the front wheels), working in conjunction with modern electronics (ABS, EBD and other technologies).

Options and prices. On the Russian market, the 2017 model year Corolla can be purchased in “Standard”, “Classic”, “Style”, “Style Plus” and “Prestige” trim levels at a price of 949,000 rubles for the “base”.
As standard, the sedan boasts two airbags, heated front seats, air conditioning, ABS, audio preparation, heated and electric mirrors, two electric windows and 15-inch wheels.
You can’t buy the most “packed” option for less than 1,295,000 rubles, and its features include six airbags, all-LED optics, a multimedia system, ESP, camera rear view, technology keyless entry, navigation, 16-inch wheels, all-round parking sensors, dual-zone climate control and much more.

At Toyota Corolla history its models began in 1966, when Chief Engineer Japanese automaker Tatsuo Hasegawa developed and launched a compact car for domestic market. Its name has never changed in half a century. Over the past fifty years, eleven generations of Corolla have been released, the last of which is this moment rolled off the assembly line in 2016 in the back of the E170.

First and second generation models

The lineup first generation Toyota car Corolla release 1966 consisted of one modification car body in the version of a 3-door hatchback with a length of 3850 mm, designated E10, the design of which is shown in the photo.

Completed this car two versions of a gasoline power unit for 60 horses with a volume of 1.1 liters and for 78 horses with a volume of 1.2 liters. A couple of engines were manual transmission four speeds, and a little later a two-speed automatic transmission.

The first generations of Toyota Corolla were equipped with a drive exclusively on rear axle car, and only after restyling in 1987 the manufacturer switched to a front-wheel drive transmission.

The second modification, labeled E20, produced in 1970, received various body styles, intended in the old design for the domestic market, and for the American market in the form of a 4-door hatchback, shown in the photo, to which a station wagon was added a year later.

The technical equipment of the car included two new engines of 1.4 and 1.6 liters, labeled T and T2, respectively, which had a power of 95 and 115 horses and were equipped with a 5-speed manual and a 3-speed automatic.

Third and fourth versions of Corolla

In 1974, the Japanese automaker introduced the third version of the Corolla, the entire model range of which had different body designations intended for the European, Asian and American markets:

• E30 Corolla, the photo of which is presented below;

• E40 Sprinter for the American market;
• E50 restyled Corolla in a liftback body produced in 1975;
• E60 restyled Sprinter.

The technical equipment of the third generation was carried over unchanged from its predecessor, only the suspension settings changed due to the increased weight and size indicators, making the model 200 kg heavier.

The fourth generation, the photo of which is presented below, the 1979 Toyota Corolla model series, received a single designation for all E70 bodies. The car differed from its predecessor by a slight change in appearance, a new 1.8 liter engine developing a power of 75 horses, and a new 4-speed automatic transmission.

In 1980, all Corollas began to be supplied with a new type of engine with overhead valves, which had a power of 90 horses and had reduced fuel consumption.

Fifth, sixth and seventh versions of the Japanese car

The fifth version, released in 1983 and designated E80, differed significantly from its predecessor both in technical equipment and in the design of the body parts of the Corolla car, which acquired angular shapes, which is clearly visible in the photo.

In terms of technical equipment, new engines with carburetor injection 1.3 and 1.6 liters, having different power: 69–75 and 90 horses, respectively. A little later, the Toyota Corolla 1984 model series entered the market in the Compact hatchback body modification, at the same time the manufacturer first equipped the model with a 1.8-liter diesel engine.

Toyota Corolla in the E90 body, or the sixth version, was introduced in 1987 and had minor differences in external design as can be seen in the photo:

But at the same time, it was completely technically re-equipped with both new 1.3 and 1.6 liter engines with an electronic fuel supply system, and in transmission options that provide front-wheel drive.

Exactly this model began to be officially delivered to domestic market, whose car enthusiasts immediately appreciated it for its reliability and ease of maintenance.

The seventh version in the E100 body was released in 1991, and on the European market in 1992, in the form compact hatchback and a sedan, which differed significantly in appearance and weight and dimensions from models for the American and Asian markets, as can be seen in the photo.

Eighth and ninth generations

Having released the eighth generation, shown in the photo, in 1995, Toyota engineers completely updated the design of the model and equipped it with a new engine, the crankcase of which was made of aluminum, which significantly increased performance characteristics car.

This model became one of the most widespread around the world; its assembly continued until 2003 in Pakistan.

At the end of autumn 2000, the ninth generation model entered the world market, its photo is posted below:

It received the designation E120, its production was for European market was established in Turkey. The technical equipment of this Toyota Corolla model includes new engines with a system Timing VVT-i. A distinctive feature of the car in the back of the E120 was the presence in it of several electronic assistants driver in active safety and a multimedia system with navigation mode support.

Tenth and eleventh generations of Toyota Corolla

The tenth version in the E140 body entered the market as a sedan in 2006.

We see a completely updated design. The model received new engines of 1.4 and 1.6 liters, as well as robotic box gear, which was replaced in 2008 with an automatic due to a large number of complaints about its operation.

The manufacturer has withdrawn from the model range of this generation version in a hatchback body, giving it a niche as a separate car under the name Toyota Auris.

The eleventh Corolla, labeled E170, which entered the domestic market in 2013, has a completely different body design, which has acquired an aggressive sporty design.

In addition to the design, the automaker has also improved the technical equipment of the model in the form of new power units with volumes of 1.3, 1.6 and 1.8 liters, working in conjunction with a CVT for the maximum configuration.

In 2016, the model was restyled, as a result of which the hanging parts car body and its lighting, as well as the interior of the cabin, which has become more technologically advanced and ergonomic.

Conclusion

From the very first generation, it began to be in high demand among car enthusiasts in more than 140 countries around the world. Drivers appreciated its technical characteristics, reliability and ease of execution of structural parts, which allows them to carry out maintenance without problems.

Eleventh generation (E170):

Design flaws. Experts include the following design flaws in the 11th generation Corolla:

• weak "response" of engines,
• stabilizer bushings,
• poor sound insulation,
• poor build quality of the front panel,
• a lot of problems are caused by a poorly closing trunk lid,
• Well, the most significant drawback is considered to be the unsuccessful tilt of the windshield, which leads to “triple” of light rays and deterioration of visibility in case of installation of defective glass (mainly applies to cars equipped with “Turkish” glass).

Suspension tuning features. The suspension of cars “in the back of E170” is quite well adapted to Russian road conditions and has good endurance. The car has confident directional stability, rolls much less than its predecessors when maneuvering at high speed, as well as when cornering, has received a clearer steering. At the same time, the suspension transmits an excessive amount of vibrations into the cabin on uneven roads.

The engine vibrates in any operating mode. If the 11th generation Corolla engine vibrates excessively and the nature of the vibrations practically does not change when various modes its operation, then the cause of these vibrations is wear of the engine mounts. To solve the problem, you need to check the integrity of the pillows and replace damaged ones. Worn airbags are also indicated by vibration of the steering wheel. Idling.

Whistle when braking. As a rule, the main cause of whistling sounds when braking is a large amount of dirt getting into the space between the pads and the brake disc. To solve the problem, it is necessary to clean the surface of the disc and pads from accumulated dirt.

Creak of interior trim elements. Various creaking sounds appear in the interior of the E170 Corolla quite regularly. Treatment involves gluing decorative elements with 2-sided tape and treating moving elements with silicone grease.

Increased noise from the air conditioner. The reason for the increased noise of the air conditioner may be a dirty air conditioner radiator, forcing the fan to work at maximum speed. To solve the problem, it is necessary to clean the radiator from debris and dust that has gotten into its cavities.

Steering shaft rattling. The steering column is a problematic design element of the Toyota Corolla of many generations. On the E170 model, its rattling may be caused by the development of lubricant in the splined part of the steering shaft. The second reason is the weakening of the fastenings of the crosses. To eliminate rattling, it is necessary to check the tightness of the fastenings of the steering column components and update the lubricant.

The trunk lid does not close the first time. A fairly common problem for the E170 body, which the manufacturer promises to fix during restyling. As a rule, the problem appears when you try to close the trunk by pressing the lid not in the center, but from the side. The reason lies in the insufficient rigidity of the trunk lid, which causes it to warp. Experts recommend closing the lid strictly behind the central part.

In winter, the gas tank flap is difficult to open. The reason for the difficult opening lies in the unsuitability of the factory lubricant for Russian climatic conditions. It is recommended to lubricate the moving elements with frost-resistant grease.

Damage to the radiator from small stones, flying out from under the wheels of a car moving in front. This problem is caused by the radiator grille being too coarse. To fix the problem, it is necessary to install an additional protective grid.

Tenth generation (E150):

Weak spots. Experts include the weak points of the 10th generation Toyota Corolla:

• pump,
• robotic gearbox,
• steering column,
• stabilizer bushings,
• headlight washer nozzles,
• low quality plastic trim.

After replacing the battery, the speed started to fluctuate. If, after installing a new battery or simply removing/installing the terminals, the speed starts to fluctuate, then the problem lies in a settings failure electronic pedal gas To fix the problem, you need to initialize the pedal.

Excessive jerking when shifting gears robotic gearbox . As a rule, this symptom is accompanied by a refusal of “assistance” at start or periodic independent activation of neutral. The cause of the problem lies in incorrect operation the actuator, which will require its replacement, as well as flashing the ECU.

Noise near the pump. The reason for excessive noise from the pump is wear and tear. components. As a rule, this symptom is accompanied by leakage of antifreeze. To solve the problem, you need to replace the pump. Note that most often this problem occurs on the pre-restyling version of the E150s.

Extraneous sounds when the engine is running smoothly. Appearance extraneous sounds Most often it is caused by a defective alternator pulley. First you need to check the reliability of its fastening. If the sounds persist, then the pulley will need to be replaced.

CV joint crunching when driving in reverse with the steering wheel turned all the way. The appearance of this symptom on the Corolla E150 indicates rapid wear of the CV joint. To extend the life cycle, it is necessary to check the presence and quality of lubricant, the integrity of the boots, and also clean the cavities of the CV joint from any debris.

The headliner is stained or warped. This defect can appear on a pre-restyling car and is associated with poor-quality assembly, which is why moisture penetrates into the interior through the roof joints, spoiling the appearance of the ceiling upholstery. To solve the problem, it is necessary to apply sealant in places of leakage (produced by rust) and install new upholstery.

Front panel creaks. Various creaking sounds in the front panel - " family trait» 10th generation Toyota Corolla. To eliminate squeaks, it is necessary to glue all the overhead elements with 2-sided tape.

Knock in the steering column. The appearance of knocking sounds in the steering column of the E150 model is caused by its design flaws, leading to loosening of the components. To solve the problem, it is necessary to tighten the steering shaft and crosspieces.

Ninth generation (E120):

The weakest points. Add to list weak points"E120's" specialists include:

• radiator,
• stabilizer bushings and struts,
• steering rack,
• brake discs.

In addition, on cars imported from the USA, an engine that is not adapted to Russian gasoline is considered problematic.

Increased oil consumption on a ZZ series engine(released before April 2005). The reason for the increase in oil consumption at mileage above 50,000 km is wear of the pistons and piston rings. IN worst case The engine short block will also require replacement.

Body vibration when the engine is idling. The reason for the occurrence of strong body vibration in ninth-generation cars is lowered (in order to improve environmental friendliness) idle speed engine. To eliminate this design feature The car needs to “adjust” the idle speed upward by turning on additional electrical consumers (to increase the load on the generator and, as a result, on the engine).

Difficulty starting the engine. Problems with starting the engine in the Corolla E120 are usually associated with clogging fuel filter located in the fuel pump. To solve the problem, you need to disassemble the pump and clean the filter.

A warm engine will not start. If a Toyota Corolla E120 engine that has recently been turned off and has not yet cooled down does not start, then the reason lies in the failure of the camshaft sensor. To solve the problem, you need to replace the sensor.

Squeaking sound in the rear view mirror area when high speeds. This problem occurs in many E120s and is caused by peeling of the windshield seal. You can try to solve the problem by driving sealant into the place of delamination. If the squeak persists, then it is necessary to re-glue the windshield by replacing the seal.

When opening the glass in winter, it cuts off the pins of the electric window motor gearbox. A fairly common problem caused by glass freezing. It is solved by installing homemade rivets machined from improvised metal objects instead of cut pins.

The central locking does not close one or more doors. The cause of this problem lies in the thickening of the lubricant in the mechanism. door lock. It is necessary to rinse the lock of old grease and apply new one.

Creaking in the area of ​​the upper corners of the front panel. As a rule, the cause of squeaking sounds is a loose hood hinge, which leads to friction between the hood and the fender. It is necessary to check the reliability of the hinge and glue a piece of porous rubber in the place where the hood is supposed to contact the fender.

The new Toyota Corolla continues to hold the lead in the C-class sedan segment. It is already available for order. You can buy the new product from official dealers one of 5 trim levels: Standard, Classic¸ Comfort, Prestige, Prestige Safety. For those who appreciate individuality, 9 stylish body shades are offered.

Toyota operation Safety Sense may be affected or impaired by external factors, and Toyota is not responsible for any consequences resulting from the use of the system.

Corolla is the longest-living car among all the cars that Toyota produces and the sales record holder. The first Toyota Corolla was introduced back in 1966! In less than half a century, more than 30 million cars rolled off the assembly line, which were then distributed in 140 countries around the world.

Such dedication to one model on the part of the manufacturer is impressive, and many are ready to suspect traditionalism and lack of development, but hardly anyone would argue that modern model Toyota Corolla bears little resemblance to a car produced forty years ago.

Unlike AvtoVAZ, which tends to produce the same car for a long time with minor differences, Toyota technically and externally changes from generation to generation. And over the more than forty-year history of the model, 10 generations of Corolla cars have been born. The gap between updates averaged about five years. And only the tenth Toyota Corolla was waited longer - seven whole years. And now, again, the restyled Corolla 10 has appeared, with the help of which Toyota will undoubtedly strengthen its position in the “C” segment.

The launch debut of the Corolla took place under the slogan “an engine with a volume increased by one hundred cubic centimeters.” For the sixties of the last century, this was a breakthrough. New car Toyota Corolla immediately fell into a clearly defined target niche. According to company representatives, it was with the Corolla that the era of family cars began. Moreover, this car contained the most Hi-tech in the automotive industry of that time.

But no matter how much time has passed since then, the concept of the car has not changed. But it only intensified and developed. The car became more powerful, aerodynamic, and economical. These parameters increased the cost and, as a result, the cost of the Toyota Corolla - the price of the car changed with the release of each new model. By the eighties of the last century, the car set a Japanese record - the total number of cars of this model produced reached 10 million units.

And therefore, in the nineties, the Toyota Corolla car was on the rise. After all, more than one hundred thousand cars were sold per month. And in order to satisfy the demand, which was growing every day, Toyota opened its subsidiary factories in first Turkey, and then in Foggy Albion. Commercial success was supported by sports victories. First places in the World Rally Championships; Grand Prix of Monte Carlo, Spain, New Zealand, and in 1999 a victory at the rally in China. And the beginning of the third millennium gave Corolla another victory - its name was included in the Guinness Book of Records as the best-selling car.

This is how the history of the “flower crown” was formed - this is how the name of the car is translated from Latin. Over four decades, little remains of the car's original appearance. Yes, and internally the car has changed dramatically. An example is the fact that initially rear wheel drive car in 1984 it was reborn as front-wheel drive.

So it can be argued that modern Toyota The Corolla bears no resemblance to either its original version or the 90s versions. Today's car is a spacious and comfortable sedan, and at good prices driving performance The Toyota Corolla price is very reasonable. Which makes the car’s many competitors nervous.

Considering that the market segment in which the Corolla car is located is in great demand, the Japanese car is being squeezed from all sides: in terms of cost, quality and technical characteristics. After all, its direct competitors are such models as “”, “”, “”, etc. But the history rich in victories does not allow Toyota to give up so easily. The car always remains in sight, from time to time reminding its competitors of its successes.

But, really, no one understood why to update a car that came off the assembly line quite recently. After all, the changes affected mainly small things: the car received a new radiator grille, new bumper and new front and rear lights. Turn signal indicators appeared on the mirrors, and the shape of the steering wheel changed. In reality, only two details changed - the car was equipped with a new 1.33 Dual VVT-i engine and a new one was added to it manual transmission with six gears.

According to many, the purpose of these updates was to show competitors that Toyota is still “in trend” and has its finger on the pulse of change. And any wish of the client immediately finds a response in the hearts of the designers, because it is for the buyers that the car is produced. This is the core essence of the Corolla brand and is why the car endures to this day. After all, if you look, it’s the same Corolla car, everyone knows it from childhood, but on the other hand, it’s modern car with the corresponding technical characteristics. But at the same time, the basic concept remains the same: a car for everyone, a mass car.

To summarize, the car is only being improved, for example, a modification with an engine capacity of 1.6 liters with a dual electronic variable valve timing system Dual VVT-i. Here is the system intelligent control throttle valve ETCS-I, and the ignition system on which they stand custom coils ignition DIS. This engine is traditional for the entire Corolla series and, although it has not undergone any significant changes, it still remains the best compared to competitors' engines. Judge for yourself: for an engine with a power of 124 hp. and at 6000 rpm, fuel consumption is only 6.9 liters. And carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions into the atmosphere are only 163 g/km.

But although the engine is powerful, acceleration is still rather weak. The Toyota Corolla car had better performance. Competitors who have power unit much weaker, do it much better. But for Toyota, as has been said more than once, loyalty to the idea is more important than dynamics. After all, the Toyota Corolla car is family car, and while it can hit 60 mph in five seconds, it doesn't have to.

The smooth ride is comparable to the Italians, thanks to upgraded suspensions. In front is an improved MacPherson strut, which provides excellent car control when driving straight, when cornering and excellent steering sensitivity. And at the rear there is a semi-independent one, which helps to keep the car on any road.

The special design of the chassis, which is long, also does its job. wheelbase and the fact that the wheels are located near the corners of the body while driving. All this makes the Corolla a very balanced car on the road when driving at very high speeds. Not all competitors can boast of this.

So, having bought a Corolla, you can safely go even to family trip. Technical characteristics and level of comfort allow this. In terms of comfort, of course Toyota car Corolla is slightly inferior to and, but the difference is not so obvious. For the convenience of the driver and passengers, there are many pocket compartments throughout the cabin - in terms of their total number, Corolla is second only to the French, in particular.

The interior was developed in France at the local branch of the company's design bureau, taking into account all the tastes of European consumers. For example, everyone especially notes the comfortable driver's seat, in which you do not get tired after a long journey and do not lose control of the car. The driver sees all the instruments perfectly and can easily reach all the elements. Everything is very convenient and practical. Especially considering that all data is displayed on one screen.

Now the following are available in all vehicle trim levels: height- and tilt-adjustable steering column, heated side mirrors electrically operated, foldable rear seats and heated front seats. Also, AUX and USB ports have been added to the “base” of all configurations.

For aesthetes, there are richer configurations, for example, “Elegance” or “Prestige”. In them, customers have access to a new leather steering wheel with more functionality, a rear-view mirror with a built-in rear-view camera, Bluetooth on the steering wheel, cruise control and a new intelligent security system.

The Corolla's safety system is not much different from its competitors. It’s probably worth highlighting separately only the new pedal assembly and injury-proof steering column. Both units are designed to protect the driver from injury in frontal collisions. It is also worth noting the backrests of the front seats; they protect the necks of those sitting in front in the event of a car impact from behind. After all, whiplash injuries to the neck are very common in such accidents, even if the collision occurs at very low speeds.

After all these new products, the Corolla car still remained itself - an excellent representative of the middle class of cars. It has taken its place in the market for cars of this class and is not going to give it up to anyone. Its development is in accordance with all customer requirements.
