Toyota Blitz: Humble Corolla on steroids
By Jacqui Madelin
9:30 AM Tuesday Jul 19, 2011

Toyota's bland-and-boring image is personified by the sensible Corolla. But clearly its grey-suited engineers occasionally get a rush of blood to the head, which explains this Blitz.

For it's effectively a Corolla with a facelift and a 3.5-litre V6 engine wedged under the bonnet. Yep, the same unit that powers the much bigger Aurion, the RX350 and the Lexus IS350 performance sedan is fitted to a mainstream hatch.

The suspension's upgraded to cope with an independent double wishbone rear in place of the torsion beam of our Corollas, while braking's boosted by bigger, front ventilated discs.


Hubba-hubba was my first thought; here's a Toyota that could foot it with a hot Golf.

That impression holds when you pull away. The mighty motor's at its best in a lighter car, flinging its 206kW and 344Nm to the front wheels via a quick-shifting six-speed auto. There's less torque steer than expected and you literally rocket away from lights or on to motorway on-ramps with the sort of blistering delivery that'd give the average Corolla-owner indigestion.

Power ramps up smoothly but, when the road turns bendy, the engine throws its weight around - literally. Clearly this car's been designed for a lighter powerplant and the extra heft is felt via assertive understeer.

That apart, the suspension is compliant enough for comfort and makes a decent fist of carving round open corners; it's when they tighten that the Blade tries to cut a straight path.

Rather numb steering doesn't help and I soon throttled back for a more sedate approach to bends, saving the fireworks for the straights. Slowing down will ease your wallet, for the car returned a 13.3l/100km thirst during my spirited drive - a shock for a tarted-up Corolla.

Inside, the cabin's leather seats are inset with suede that's also been lavished over other surfaces. The Blitz is a Signature Class official used import, so it's been through Toyota's fettling process when the Japanese radio was replaced with a New Zealand unit.

There's an assortment of features, though I couldn't get the voice control to work - perhaps because of translation difficulties.

As a Corolla on steroids, the $33,000 Blitz didn't quite cut it for me; if I want a performance car I'd buy a better-handling and hotter-looking model. But it does deliver the sort of barbecue-boasting rights no ordinary Corolla can manage.

好像有280匹!!!!!!!!!!!!!一直想知有多快!!!

呵呵，说的挺贴切的，虽然有些夸张。

这小车直线没什么问题，但是如此大的输出功率真正考验的是车的地盘实力。一过弯就知道了。操控是王道。。。

看过一些评测，0-100的直线应该在6秒左右。

小車放強力引擎 玩直線吧.  賽道上還是不靠譜, 高速緊急煞車穩定不夠

大马力引擎，放在前驱车里，Blade好像还是CVT波箱，简直就是浪费，不知道Toyota在想什么。

放在宝马或者保时捷的底盘......

沒有手排的?

好像没手的， 研究过，2。4就不要了  整个3。2的玩玩也不错呢
