Reasons Why Nigerians Love Toyota Corolla
Rugged And Durable
The Corolla is believed to me more rugged and durable than its contemporaries from other automakers.
The car is reliable and specially built to withstand rigorous driving conditions such as Nigerian roads. This car – especially the 2002 – 2005 models – hardly overheats even when subjected to terrible traffic. Some users risk delaying servicing yet the car still keeps moving.
Fuel Economy
In a country like Nigeria where the price of fuel keeps rising, it is only wise for the citizens to consider fuel economy in their buying decision. This is one reason why the Toyota Corolla is often a top choice.
The car’s low fuel consumption is because the engines come in specs ranging from 1.4Ltr. to 1.8Ltr engines except the sport versions which comes with bigger engines.
Great Resale Value
First, the Toyota Corolla (like other Toyota vehicles) has great resale value.
The average Nigerian would opt for a tokunbo (used) Toyota if he/she had to choose among popular auto brands.
Nigerian car users agree that a previously used Toyota has a good number of years on it. A properly managed Toyota car will serve its user longer than other brands.
Availability of Spare Parts
In Nigeria, the availability of a car model spare part contribute to its popularity or otherwise. This is another reason for the love Nigerians have for Toyota Corolla.
Their spare parts are easily available to users. Nigerians Love Toyota
