Toyota Corolla

The Toyota Corolla is a household name that needs no introduction. Since the corolla’s inception in 1966 it has remained a cockroach in the car world. It is simply unkillable.

If you’re in the market for a sensible go everywhere compact car, the corolla is a smart choice.

If you’re in the market for a sensible go everywhere compact car, the corolla is a smart choice. The power train allows for a smooth ride on the high way and in the city with good mileage. Toyota says its designed to seat 5(2 in front and 3 in back), however the 41 ish inches in the rear would only fit two grown baba’s (men) and a very skinny person.

The Toyota’s fwd. drive makes it a good option for Nigerian roads, as well as other rough terrains anywhere in the world. However, its 6.7 inches distance off the ground means you might scratch the bottom a little over very bad potholes.

Overall you cannot fault the look, quality and versatility of the Toyota Corolla, and with this it earns a definite buy in my book. Below are technical indices to consider if you are quite tech-savvy.
