Half of every Corolla on the road is below this. Power divided by mass in running order — the one figure that compares across model and era.
There are 77,094 of them on Dutch roads, built between 1996 and 2022, weighing anywhere from 1,090 to 1,590 kg. They share a name and not much else. Here is the spread.
Half of every Corolla on the road is below this. Power divided by mass in running order — the one figure that compares across model and era.
A typical Corolla has more power per tonne than 61% of the 8,248,168 combustion cars in the Netherlands.
For the median version, from power, mass and body shape. A prediction, not a measurement.
The slowest in this sample makes 50.5 kW per tonne and the quickest 109.7 — a factor of 2.2 between two cars wearing the same badge. Any single number for a Corolla is an average over that.

Asking the server…
Everything above describes 77,094 cars sharing a name, spanning 1996 to 2022 and 1,090–1,590 kg. Your Corolla has one engine, one mass and one registration. Put the plate in and the answer is about that car rather than about the name on it.
