The 2018 Toyota Corolla Axio & 2018 Toyota Corolla Fielder feature new Intelligent Clearance Sonar.
The Toyota Corolla Axio and Toyota Fielder 2018 feature newly designed front bumper and grille. The WxB grade has adopted mesh pattern grille, rear spoiler (Corolla Axio) and grey stripe trim for seat back. White coloured seats popular in the Corolla Fielder WxB have now made it to the Corolla Axio WxB.
ArrayWith the first facelift, the old Toyota Corolla Axio and Toyota Corolla Fielder debuted the Toyota Safety Sense C package. This safety suite for compact cars is standard across the new Toyota Corolla Axio and Toyota Corolla Fielder range. In addition, the new models feature Intelligent Clearance Sonar that helps prevent or mitigate collisions caused by rapid acceleration after pedal misapplication. On detecting an obstacle, the system reduces the engine or motor output and automatically applies the brakes if the distance to the object is further reduced.
