Toyota Corolla sharp put is really awesome, the entry version will give L2 level auxiliary driving

The new year has just arrived, and Toyota has already fired three shots in a row, preempting the attack. The first shot is the compact SUV Feng Landa, the second shot is the medium-sized SUV Wesa, and the third shot is the just-launched Corolla Rui Fang.

Corolla Ruifang is officially launched, and the new car has launched a total of 5 models, priced at 129,800 yuan – 169,800 yuan. From the second half of 2021, Toyota’s market action has accelerated significantly. In a short period of time, it has successively launched a number of blockbuster new cars such as Crown Land Fang, Lingfang, Feng Landa, and Wesa. Just in the first month of the new year, Corolla Ruifang is also officially listed. Toyota is bound to gather together this Lunar New Year.

Today’s content is roughly divided into three parts, namely why Toyota launched the Corolla Sharp, what are the highlights of the Corolla Sharp, and how to choose a model at the same price. You can choose the key points to read according to your own needs.

Why launch Corolla Sharp?

For a long time, many consumers with a budget in the range of 10-150,000 yuan have a strong intention to buy a joint venture SUV, but most of the more reliable joint venture SUVs at this price are small SUVs, which cannot meet the needs of large families in space. Therefore, they can only choose a larger independent brand SUV. After all, the space is larger, and the family is more comfortable to ride.

And Toyota seems to have insight into this market demand, so Feng Landa came, and Corolla Rui Fang also came. From the positioning point of view, Corolla Rui Fang and Feng Landa are positioned as compact SUVs, so compared with small SUVs such as Yize and C-HR with similar price points, the size is larger, and the overall space performance is undoubtedly better. This is undoubtedly a new option for consumers who want to buy a joint-venture large-space home SUV with a budget of 10-150,000 yuan.

In addition, the arrival of the Corolla Sharp has also lowered the entry threshold of the Toyota brand SUV. The starting price of 129,800 yuan is more down-to-earth than the price of Yize and C-HR, and the price of the hot-selling version of the independent brand is similar. Another point is that in the 10-150,000 SUV market, the overall performance of Toyota Yize and C-HR is not as good as Honda’s XR-V and Colorful Intelligence, and the arrival of the Corolla Sharp also has the effect of enhancing the competitiveness of the market segment.

What are the highlights of Corolla’s sharp release?

Blacksmithing also needs to be hard, especially if you want to gain a foothold in the Red Sea of 10-150,000 SUVs, you must have real skills. Let’s take a look at the highlights of Corolla Rui Fang’s products themselves.

Highlight one, big. In fact, it has been mentioned in the previous part that one of the highlights of the Corolla sharp release is big. The body size of the new car is 4460/1825/1620mm, and the wheelbase is 2640mm. Compared with Yize and C-HR, the wheelbase remains unchanged, but the body size is fully lengthened. It can be said that in the same level of joint venture brand models, the Corolla sharp release space is one of the best.

Highlight two, entry is high-end. In everyone’s impression, the joint venture brand is not as generous as its own brand in terms of configuration, but the Corolla Rui Fang’s configuration is unexpectedly high. All Corolla Rui Fang models come standard with 7 airbags and Toyota TSS Smart Safety System, which is very conscientious.

In addition, the entry version is equipped with full-speed adaptive cruise, automatic parking, lane departure warning, lane keeping assistance, active braking, and has L2 level automatic driving functions. In addition, the car also supports CarLife/CarPlay and so on. The entry of a joint venture model at this price can give such a rich configuration, Corolla Sharp is really the first.

Highlight 3, the price is close to the people. The entry price of Corolla Sharp is 129,800 yuan, and the maximum price is 169,800 yuan. Compared with the Toyota model with the same 2.0L engine, the entry price of the new car is cheaper 10,000 diversified. That is to say, while Corolla Sharp increases the size and improves the configuration, the price is also lower. With this alone, Corolla Sharp can attract a large wave of consumer attention.

How should I choose a car at the same price?

In the 10-150,000 SUV market, there are not only self-owned brand best-selling models Haval H6, Changan CS75 PLUS, Geely Boyue, etc., but also joint venture brand champions, such as Honda Bizhi and XR-V, Nissan Qashqai, Volkswagen Tangge, etc. In addition, Toyota’s own products Yize and C-HR are also in the market. So, how should these models be selected? We look at three situations.

In the first case, if you have no requirements for the brand and want to buy a cost-effective model with a large space, high configuration, and good power experience, then your own brand SUV may be more suitable for you.

In the second case, if you want to buy an exquisite and fashionable joint venture brand SUV, which can be used by a family of two or three, and the space demand is not large, then the joint venture small SUV is quite good. How to choose depends on the price and preferential strength.

In the third case, if you want to buy a joint venture brand model, the space requirements are slightly larger, so Toyota’s Corolla Sharp and Feng Landa can choose. If the budget is just around 130,000 yuan, then you can focus on the entry version of Corolla Sharp.

And finally:

Overall, the price advantage of Toyota Corolla Sharp Release, whether it is the product itself or the market, is relatively obvious. The space is larger, the configuration is higher, and the price is more down-to-earth. To a certain extent, Corolla Sharp Release is equivalent to refining the market segment again, forming a blank market segment that it took the lead in launching into the sea. Its advantages are self-evident.

In addition, Corolla Ruifang also has Toyota’s good reputation and the blessing of the "Corolla" title. I believe its market performance will not be too bad. Let’s look forward to it together.
