Comfortably Safe in the Winter Season Matrix

The winter season Matrix Toyota has been a convincingly sporty, fuel-efficient four-door hatchback with the guarantee of Toyota’s dependability for ten years. Most of these requirements are still in the 2013 Toyota Matrix, but it is newer and more effective and more attractive.

This four-door hatchback, based on the Toyota Corolla, has the advantage of a big cabin with a fold-flat front passenger seat, a smooth ride, and an available all-wheel-drive system. Toyota offers two different engines for its vehicles: a 1.8-liter four-cylinder engine and a larger 2.4-liter engine seen in the Matrix.

Safety

Antilock disc brakes, stability and traction control, as well as active front head restraints, front-seat side airbags, and side curtain airbags that cover both rows are all standard on the 2013 Toyota Matrix. In frontal-offset and side-impact crash tests, the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety gave the Matrix its highest grade of “Good.”

Driving

Which engine you select will determine how the 2013 Toyota Matrix performs on the road. Slow acceleration is a drawback of the 1.8-liter machine. It is partially made up for by its improved fuel efficiency. The 2.4-liter four-cylinder fills that power gap, albeit obviously at the expense of fuel efficiency. In either case, the Matrix’s handling and ride are comfortable and responsive.

Go the distance. It would help to permanently reduce your speed when driving on snow or ice to consider the decreased traction.

  • Slowly increase and decrease your speed. To regain traction and prevent skids, gradually increase the gas. 
  • Avoid accelerating quickly and allow yourself enough time to slow down at stoplights. Keep in mind that slowing down on ice roads takes more time.
  • Increase the time you lag to five to six seconds. This enhanced margin of safety will provide the longer distance required if you have to halt.
  • Exhaust pipe cleaning: Ensure that mud, snow, or ice are not blocking the exhaust pipe. A blocked exhaust pipe might allow carbon monoxide gas to escape into the car’s cabin when the engine operates.

Interior

The Matrix’s interior design falls between more conventional Toyota cars and more avant-garde rivals like the Nissan Cube or Scion xB. Simple, user-friendly controls and materials of quality support this functional design.

The Matrix excels in hauling things around, with 19.8 cubic feet of cargo space behind the back seats and 49.4 cubic feet with the seatbacks folded down. The Matrix can also accommodate surfboards and other long objects thanks to the front passenger seat’s typical flat-folding design.
