First Take

The Corolla sedan is fuel-efficient, but the new styling, with its lower stance and curvier body, has compromised the rear-seat room and made it harder to get in and out. The hybrid version gets an impressive 48-mpg overall. Both the hybrid and the 1.8-liter engine provide leisurely acceleration, and the continuously variable transmission amplifies engine noise. A more powerful 169-hp, 2.0-liter four-cylinder comes on the higher trim lines and on the hatchback. Toyota improved the Corolla's handling agility without sacrificing ride quality. The controls are easy to use, and Android Auto and Apple CarPlay compatibility are standard. FCW and AEB are standard. New for 2021, BSW and RCTW are available on the hybrid.
