Driving wise this is much more fun than most 1.0l-1.2l turbos, revs cleanly to the limiter, instant response, quick going through short gears - very likeable. however you also have to drive it like that to get it going instead of relying on some torque in the middle revs. always cons and pros. shame they didnt make it a 2 liter like mazda, than it would have much better pickup down low.
There is actually a beautiful 2.0 gasoline engine available with around 170 hp… But it is unfortunately not offered in the European market. It still exists in the North American and Australian markets, as far as I know.
As a previous E12 SW owner, 1.4 vvti 97hp, I must say that this one feels slower. 3cyls definitely can use a turbo in my opinion,.. Nice video as always :)
This video was exactly what i was looking for. I compared hybrid 140 to this 125 petrol. Hybrid with 3 out of 8 batteries has (practically empty bcs it doesnt go below that afaik) acceleration after 140km/h same as this car after 170km/h. Meaning hybrid, when battery is practically empty,, accelerates with its petrol engine only which is 98hp
193 on the speedometer, so around 180 true speed. Pretty good, better than electronic limit for Hybrid 180-185. Better fuel economy for cruising than Hybrid.
Almost 200 Km/h for this little engine is super overstress. I understand that this video is made for fun but I can bet that if one is driving such engine at max rpm all the time - this car would not last much because the stress he puts on the engine.

@@sandikrhin9305 Too bad, I was wondering how quiet it is in the 6th on 130-140 kmph. I am planning to buy 2-3 year old Corolla, thinking between 1.5 dynamic force and 1.8 hybrid (122PS version). And most of the time I will do highway on moderate speed (~130 kmph).
I am wondering why an engine with 1.5 VVT with 125 PS goes only 190 km/h while an old Opel Vectra from the 90's with 1.6 engine and 75 PS goes 190 km/h.
It’s most likely because of a speed limiter. In fact, even the technical data sheet specifically states 190 km/s as Vmax, both for the manual and the CVT. Still, I don’t really know why they needed a limiter. With this engine and transmission ratios, it looks like it could have hit ~210 km/s in 5th gear on a good day😄
You are spot on. The real 0-100 is like ~12sec, ''72 Ford Taunus with 100hp would eat this thing alive (Although burning 30% more fuel and tires). They changed how they measure hp and Nm.
@@yusufmercan3494 Yeah, if they really wanted to reduce emissions, they would stop selling SUVs: big and inefficient vehicles. But no, they had to set upon compact cars. Hypocrisy at its finest.
I don’t have a direct answer to your question; but I believe that it has to do something with designing a family of engines from the brands’ perspective. I have a feeling that this 3-cyl. 1.5 lt. gasoline engine might be closely related to the 4-cyl. 2.0 lt. gasoline engine (just like the relationship between VW’s 1.4 TDI - 1.9 TDI engines).
Cheaper to design, just chop off one cyl of a whole engine. Cheaper to produce. And most importantly, they want to make a 4 cylinder engine a 'premium', like 6 or 8 cyl used to be 10 years ago. Today you will have a hard time finding economy car with 4 cylinders which used to be a minimum for 4 stroke engines for 50 years. Buy a used car instead.
While americans gets proper engine inside their corollas we get shitty 3 cylinder, Very slow and noisy with a price tak of 21000€. Hybrid versions even worse. Now I see why americans love Toyota.

absolutely correct!
indeed, 2 liter would be nice
They do have a 2.0 N/A in some market. th-cam.com/video/iug81iUnkgc/w-d-xo.html

and then you'd ask for the 2.5L engine
It pulls good for 125 hp and without turbo
72' Ford Taunus with 100 HP, would eat it alive.

This car has the same acceleration as the E12 1.4 and has more top speed :D

Até que achei bom. Imaginem que aqui no Brasil existe a versão híbrida 1.8 cvt, que demora 14s para chegar aos 100kmh. Uma tartaruga.

this is very popular car here.
I am wrong - or he did not went to 6th gear? All the time in the fifth?
you are right.

Aerodynamics. A 90s Vectra is far narrower and a little shorter than a modern Corolla is.

لها نفس محرك ياريس 1.5 لكن ياريس لا تتعدى 190 لماذا ؟
Tink about audi may drive on speed limiter and corolla on full throttle.😂
What is the benefit of having 3 cylinders instead of 4 in a 1.5L engine? I've only seen 3 cylinders up to 1.2L on everyday cars.
There is no benefit. It's a horrible noisy and weak engine.
Emisyon...
