Toyota Corolla Altis (2013) Updates

Tuesday, 31 January 2023 06:24 PM In 2023, a user shared their experience of upgrading from a 2003 Corolla to a used 2013 Corolla Altis. The 2013 model, purchased via OLX, had an odometer reading of 38,182 km and was found to be well-maintained with regular service history. The car underwent a complete annual service before the purchase, and the seller even got the front engine bottom guard secured. The buyer was impressed with the cars performance and lack of issues during subsequent road trips. I think this highlights the reliability of the Corolla Altis even after several years of use.

Wednesday, 15 June 2022 10:30 AM A detailed ownership report of a pre-owned 2013 Toyota Corolla Altis revealed that the car, despite being used, maintained its cleanliness and performance. The car had its last service in 2019, and post-COVID, it was not used much, which explained the lack of recent service records. The buyer verified the service history with the dealership and found some minor issues like a broken tail lamp and worn-out steering leather, but overall, the car was in good condition. I believe this shows how important service history is when buying a used car.

Sunday, 23 December 2018 05:30 PM In 2018, a buyer purchased a 2013 Corolla Altis from an individual seller through OLX. The car was inspected at an authorized Toyota service center, which revealed minor issues like a damaged engine sump screw and a loose front engine bottom guard. However, these were not deal-breakers, and the car was found to be in good shape overall. The buyer negotiated the price from Rs. 8.5 lakh to Rs. 7.5 lakh. I think this negotiation process is a good example of how to handle used car purchases.

Monday, 15 April 2013 07:50 PM In 2013, the Toyota Corolla Altis was part of the Corolla lineup that achieved global sales of 1.22 million units, making it one of the worlds most popular car models. This success underscored the Corollas reliability and appeal worldwide. I believe this global success is a testament to Toyotas engineering and quality.

Sunday, 17 April 2011 03:32 PM The 2013 Toyota Corolla Altis was praised for its comfortable and spacious interior, good fuel consumption of up to 14.6 km/L, and large boot space with 60-40 fold seats. However, it lacked features like remote boot release, Bluetooth audio, and fog lamps, which were available in models from other countries. The cars air conditioning was highly praised for its efficiency even in hot weather. I believe the lack of certain features is a common issue in many Indian market models.

Monday, 18 April 2011 12:24 AM The 2013 Corolla Altis was noted for its quiet cabin, comfortable interior, and smooth gear shifts, especially when cornering. However, some users found the car to be a bit heavy and underpowered compared to other models, particularly those with the Dual VVT-i engine. I think the weight issue is something Toyota could have addressed better.

Sunday, 17 April 2011 06:32 AM A buyer of the 2013 Corolla Altis mentioned that the cars exterior design was more sporty and appealing compared to previous models. However, the car lacked some features like fog lamps and a DVD touchscreen, which were available in other markets. The buyer also noted that the car was a bit pricey given the limited features. I believe this highlights the need for more feature parity across different markets.

Sunday, 17 April 2011 10:34 PM The 2013 Toyota Corolla Altis was praised for its cold air conditioning, which was effective even after the car had been parked for hours in hot weather. The car also had a gated shift and reverse sensor, which added to its convenience and safety features. However, some users found the headroom to be a bit low, causing occasional head knocks. I think this is a minor design flaw that could be improved.

Sunday, 17 April 2011 09:42 AM In terms of maintenance, the 2013 Corolla Altis generally required less frequent servicing, but when issues arose, they were typically related to wear and tear such as window rubber and air-con vents becoming loose over time. Despite these minor issues, the overall condition of the car remained good. I believe regular maintenance is key to extending the life of any vehicle.

Saturday, 26 March 2011 06:44 AM A review of the 2013 Toyota Corolla Altis highlighted its improved design and better engine response compared to older models. The car featured a 7-speed CVT, keyless entry, and HID lamps. The reviewer noted a slight CVT lag but overall found the drive peaceful and trouble-free. I think the addition of modern features like CVT and HID lamps significantly enhances the driving experience.
