“The Most Overhyped Car in the Country is Now 5 Million Naira for Tokunbo”: Nigerians Call Out the 2005 Toyota Corolla,  Says it Lacks Fuel Economy

Nigerians on Twitter have called out the 2005 Toyota Corolla noting that the vehicle is not just overhyped and expensive but that it also lacks fuel economy compared to vehicles from other brands that are also more recent.

In a tweet shared on X (formerly Twitter), the post reads: “The most overhyped car in the country is now 5 million Naira for Tokunbo. Honda Civic 2008, Hyundai Elantra 2010, Honda City 2009, and many other cars save more fuel than this thing. I don’t recommend it at all.”

Many others on the platform joined the conversation saying: “Mazda 3 Sport will do excellently better but y’all think Toyota is the king of cheap economy.”

Another person chipped in: “We give relevance to too much things until they get out of hand. How exactly should this car be up to N5m? What manner of demand?” The poster replied: “We made that nonsense to enter 5m.”

Another person added: “Car is just empty inside for my liking, Honda is a goal in fuel and maintenance.”

Another person also said: “I agree with you on everything other than that Elantra talk broo, Hyundai products as a whole consumes more fuel than Corolla products abeg!” The poster replied him saying: “LMAO. I have used both and I know the truth.”

Someone else chipped in: “Honda City 2009 is actually a very fine car! Looks sharp with a nice interior too.”

Speaking about the Corolla 2005 being overpriced someone else said: “Parts are very expensive now Corolla hub now is 60k engine is 600k.”
