My dad had a 04 Matrix that my sister now drives that's pushing 230k miles with almost no issues, and I'm hoping to buy a car that will last me that many miles. I was wondering if anyone in this sub had information on the reliability of the new 2.0L (or 2.5L) Dynamic Force engines. Press question mark to learn the rest of the keyboard shortcuts, https://www.nhtsa.gov/vehicle/2019/TOYOTA/COROLLA/5%252520HB/FWD#recalls, https://toyotatalk.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/06/OrgJ0D.pdf. Hope, that Toyota still uses good quality components and precise assembly. Another very famous vehicle produced by Toyota is the RAV4, which is a compact crossover SUV. It's another argument against hydrogen fuel cells. Toyota's new Dynamic Force Engine adopts high-speed combustion technologies and a variable control system. A fair bet may be anything economy-minded that currently runs a similarly sized engine, such as the Corolla. Environmental and labor group says standards now in place a boost to U.S. job creation. Toyota claims that when combined with the 2.5L Dynamic Force engine, this transaxle produces 20 percent better fuel economy and has acceleration improved by 10 percent. I think the new 2.5L Toyota engine (same as 2018+ Camry) is a great choice. Toyota announced a new slate of transmissions, engines and drivetrain parts for the TNGA platform. It also has the world’s first high speed combustion technology. While I have a hard time aligning Toyota with the words "dynamic force," that's the name Toyota gave to its new 2.0-liter gas engine for the TNGA platform. As has been stated repeatedly, the A25-FKS engine(and AT) has been on the road in '18 Camrys since the summer of 2017, so it's not exactly new this year. The Dynamic Force engines are a family of petrol engine series developed by Toyota under the brand's New Global Architecture (TNGA) strategy. Sometimes there are issues that take even longer to arise. A difference in driving force is created between the right and the left wheels, which suppresses understeering. Really? It also tweaked the hybrid system to deliver extra torque from the electric motor under acceleration. This one is all about packaging. Find out why you should rethink purchasing a 2020 Toyota RAV4, despite it being a best-selling compact SUV in America. The article below is rather long. The headliner is a new 2.0-liter, four-cylinder, Dynamic Force Engine (DFE) with a 40 percent thermal efficiency, making it the world's most thermally efficient engine with that displacement. Cars are his passion. While true, Toyota has built a long-standing reputation of reliability. Toyota also showed off a new variant of its gas-electric hybrid system, based on some of the tech inside the latest generation of Prius. Some Apple CarPlay ® features, applications and services are not available in all areas. © document.write(new Date().getFullYear()) Acton Media Inc. All Rights Reserved. I'm about a year and a half away from purchasing my next vehicle. Most people want to have confidence in their cars and what they can do. Toyota engines are noted for a lack of valve train problems. Does the 18 Camry Hybrid LE have the new engine? Dynamic Force Engine Reliability? The normal mode gives a mixture of performance and fuel economy. Toyota four cylinder issues were with the previous generation 2.4L engines, which suffered mainly from excessive oil consumption and sludge due to piston and piston ring problems. Right now the RAV4 Adventure is at the top of my list (I like to get an early start with research. The result is one seriously efficient engine. In fact, Toyota claims it'll be the most thermally efficient 2.0-liter gas engine on the market, offering 40 percent efficiency in a standard gas car, and 41 percent when part of a hybrid powertrain. Built in response to "global needs," which Toyota puts mostly on Europe, the automaker developed a new six-speed manual transmission. A25A-FKS Engine Problems and Reliability The engine has even more complex design compared to the 2AR engine series. FWIW I'd get a stick regardless, but CVT issues across manufacturers scare me. There may be a few out there but very unlikely....at this point. While Toyota may be arguanly better than the competition I would not assume that this drivetrain will go 200,000 trouble-free miles until real world results start coming in.....and that's a few years off. I'm driving a 05 Malibu (yuck) and saving up to get a Corolla Hatch. the new ones had a recall and the older ones in the last gen Corolla have some sort of issue as well. Discussion threads can be closed at any time at our discretion. They have produced a range of durable and reliable vehicles such as the Toyota Corolla, which is an affordable compact sedan. Cylinder block longevity limits the engine life, and it is about 150-200k miles.
