టయోటా కొరోల్లా ఆల్టిస్ [2011-2014] వినియోగదారుల రివ్యూలు

The experience I had with Toyota from the day 1 (I saw the car for the first time) till date is amazing. The sale team is very friendly and professional and they are very prompt aswell. I was very much confused while choosing one between ALTIS and the Civic and took 3 months for me to conclude on ALTIS. Quality Engineering is implemented in the ALTIS in each and every corner. The sales person Mohammed (Hosur Road-Bangalore) was very friendly and professional even though he was knowing that I am buying the car from different location due to tax concern. When I went for the delivery, the entire TOYOTA managers and personnalls, each from all the department came and intruduced themselves and their department for future reference. And when I had a break noice problem and I sent a complaint (email) to TOYOTA and the response I received was Amazing. I posted the complaint in the late evening and and on the very next day 9:30AM I have got a call from the service department and they collected the complaint details and faxed it to the original location of purchase. The car was picked up at 10:30AM. The car was fully serviced, break issue was fixed and returned back on the same day evening. I consider this as a nice example for service excellence.

 

If any of you in this forum had a bad experience with TOYOTA (with any department), kindly report to TOYOTA directly by ccing an email to all other departments in all the regions. Since there is a competition with in the regions, the email will reach in the hands of highest authorities and action will be take.

Sexy and beautifulNothing I can think of now.

I took delivery of the Altis 1.8VL on the 26th of September and have clocked 500 kms on it already. It is amazing to drive and the auto gear box is super smooth to drive. The climate control is excellent feature and the car gives me 9.8Km/l in the city traffic with the a/c on which is quite remarkable for a car of this size and with an automatic transmission. The ground clearance is very good as compared to the civic which can be a little difficult to handle around bumps. The 8 way power seat for driver is stunning and gives u really good driving position. Acceleration is good and the car feels well planted. The electronic power steering is very easy to use and very easily maneuverable.Extremly spacious, very comfortable, smooth transmission, 8 way power seats with lumbar supporttoo long waiting period

 

Exterior It has a royal looks,GOOD looking alloy wheels, super cool head lights and break lights and from outside it really looks like a miny camry imposing lenthy looks.

 

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) Nice as per our usability it has a aux in,steering controls,excellent legroom,powerfull A/C,leather seats,specially back seats are as comfortable as you dont imagine and mainly powered seats to driver it is 8 ways adjustable electrically and there is also whip lash protection system that you dont get in any other car in its segment.

 

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox The 1.8ltr engine performance is excellent,fuel economy not bad it retains 9 to 10kml,it has good gearshift also smooth and silky.

 

Ride Quality & Handling Ride quality is excellent and it rides like a chetha,handles like a horse!!!the main thing of this car is its ground clearence,it can go swiftly in bad roads specially in india as you know.

 

Final Words You dont go really wrong with it because it is a toyota product,thats allllllll.

 

Areas of improvement Its brakes noise should be reduced,and little sharp detail should be done on the outside thats all.

 

its looks and performancenoisy brakes

 

Exterior Good finish, smooth contours, aerodynamic styling, powerful headlamps, good frontal and real view. Not-so-great side view with the exagerated bulges.

 

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) For the price, interiors can be termed as good, though not opulant. Instrument panel is clutter-free.  Music system is utalitarian and serves the purpose (noting to write home about). Could have done without the excess grey. Both driver and passenger seats are well designed and very ergonomic ( a blessing for someone like me with a slip disk problem).

Rear seats are average. Leg room is adaquate. Rear headrests are oddly positioned and are good only for tall persons sitting upright. Has great boot space of @ 500 ltrs. AC is good though it tends to behave odd at times and is indifferent to the climate control settings, while at most times it is perfect,  Noise is kept out effectively and ride quality is excellent in cruise mode. Does tend to get bumpy at low speads. The good ground clearance ensures there are no nasty thuds which I absolutely hate.

 

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox Firstly the Engine: Once revved up, it comes into it's own and is truly built for high-speed crusining (touched 170 k/h without much sweat while being rock solid) The fuel effeciency is great on highways. I get 15-16 km/ltr driving Pune to Goa. In the city, peak traffic, it still manages a respectable 11 km/lts. When traffic is light, I have streatched a tankfull (@42 ltrs) to a good 520 kms. It has been two years since I bought the car.  Have done close to 30K so far. Have had no issues witht he gearbox whatsoever. I have heard folks calling the gear-shift  notchy, but never felt so myself. It is precise and definite, which is probably how I like it.

 

Ride Quality & Handling The ride qality has two parts to it. It is adaquate on bad roads (you hear the thuds on account of the vehicle weight) but when you are above 40 km/hr, everything gets a lot more refined and harmonic. The engine rythm and rev is good and indicates it has enough horses under the hood in case you need them. Also the ride quality improves dramatically at higher speeds.The handling at tight corners is probably not as good as the Civic, but it is not bad.

 

Final Words Great car.  Has my complete endorsment for a family man who likes to travel and craves some excitement and refinement along the way.

 

Areas of improvement None!

 

Aerodynamic styling, good fuel economy for it's size/engine capacity, rides well on highwaysNot very agile from stand-still. ride quality in city roads could have been better
