In this article, we will explore all the details and strengths of this model.

At the rear, the lights invade the trunk lid. Your keys do not have integrated controls, with separate alarm controls. Its 406-liter trunk is surprising considering the size and version of the Toyota Corolla.
The vehicle can deliver up to 136 horsepower and around 16 kgfm of torque which, combined with a rustic automatic transmission, push the package well, leaving nothing to be desired. Furthermore, the Corolla's suspension reflects the concept of durability that Toyota would adopt for the following decades: Independent arms at the front and torsion axle at the rear.

Opinion of the owner of a Toyota Corolla 2002
According to Gabriel Monico, former owner of a 2002 Toyota Corolla, the model is a car that has always had the ability to serve any type of use. The AE110 platform is robust and consistent, with enough space for a few adults and a good trunk.
For daily use in cities full of traffic, it is more recommended to buy an automatic in the XEi or SE-G versions (which add some technologies).
However, if you are looking for better performance and consumption, opt for the manual transmission. In any case, the Toyota Corolla is a functional car that won't give you much trouble, as long as you respect its mechanics, using periodic inspections and good quality parts.
