IN THE QUEST FOR AFFORDABILITY

IN THE QUEST FOR AFFORDABILITY

Date: 2014-05-23
Enter the Corolla Quest, a no-nonsense, sensible, spacious and, above all, affordable family car that is set to put the vehicular cat among the pigeons by creating a whole new sub-C segment.

As Glenn Crompton, Vice President for Sales and Marketing, explains: "When a new model arrives, the previous car is usually consigned to the history books. Not so for the outgoing Toyota Corolla. Launched in 2007, this model was the most successful Corolla to date and helped this motoring icon achieve best-seller status as the world's most loved car - the nameplate amassed a record 40.72 million cumulative sales by the end of February this year.

"What makes this newcomer unique, though, is that it's the only sub-C segment contender. And, with prices starting from just R174900, it's got winner written all over it. Buyers that are looking to upgrade their vehicles, but aren't in a position to make the financial leap from the B- to C-segment, now finally have a choice."

The line-up has been restricted to three models with just two trim levels: the standard variant - available in manual or automatic guise - and the Quest Plus, available solely as a manual.

All cars in the range come standard with an immobiliser and alarm, remote central locking, dual front airbags, Isofix anchor points, air-conditioning and rake/reach adjustment for the steering wheel.

The 1,6-litre motor features a dual VVT-I system. Under control of the engine's ECU, the system varies the timing of the inlet and exhaust camshafts to alter valve overlap at various engine load conditions. Maximum power is rated at 90 kW of power at 6 000 r/min, and maximum torque of 154 Nm delivered at 5 200 r/min. Buyers will have the option of a six-speed manual or four-speed automatic transmission.

There's no skimping on active safety features either - brake discs are fitted at each corner (the front items are ventilated while the rears are solid) and controlled by anti-lock braking system incorporating electronic brake-force distribution and emergency brake assist.

Underpinning the quality, reliability and durability of the new Corolla Quest is the three-year/100000 km warranty, three-year/45 000 km service plan.
