Toyota Corolla Matrix Complete Report Manual

Formerly called the Matrix, Toyota has renamed this tall, stylish wagon the Corolla Matrix. It uses well-proven Corolla components, including the drivetrain and platform, but it differs most from the Corolla by having an optional all-wheel- drive system with automatic slip sensing and torque redistribution, a system available only with the 123-horsepower base engine. The optional 170-hp engine makes the front-wheel-drive Corolla Matrix more sporty, but the AWD model could benefit from a bigger motor. Split folding rear seatbacks (the right-rear and front-passenger seatbacks fold forward to handle long items) add to this wagon's practicality. The Corolla Matrix is well designed and flawlessly built. For 2005: There are modest cosmetic and interior changes, stability control is optional on base and XR models, and curtain airbags are optional.
