Data provenance & limits

Measured: 4.3, 5.6 and 7.3 L/100 km at 90, 120 and 140 km/h respectively, reported from two-way 33 km motorway runs. The test used 225/45 R17 Falken tyres and checked the trip computer against a fuel-station fill-up.

Interpolated: values between those speeds use straight-line interpolation between the nearest measurements. Values below 90 or above 140 km/h are deliberately unavailable—there is no extrapolation.

Measured anchors. Honest gaps.

Fuel values at 90, 120 and 140 km/h are measured road-test results. Every other point is interpolated between adjacent measurements; the calculator never extrapolates.

Bounded evidence.

The Toyota Corolla is not a niche example: Toyota reported 182,278 Corolla sales in Europe in 2022, making it the brand’s second-best-selling European model that year.

The calculator is calibrated to the 2022 Corolla Touring Sports 1.8 Hybrid road test—not an adjustable generic physics curve. A real trip can still differ with temperature, wind, traffic, load, tyres, road surface and hybrid battery state.
