Overview & Reviews

Well into its fourth decade of production, the compact Toyota Corolla is the best-selling car in automotive history, and for good reason. Small, inexpensive, fuel-efficient and as reliable as the day is long, the Corolla is the quintessential economy car. As long as you change the oil on time and don't hit a tree, any Corolla should provide dependable transportation well past the 100,000-mile mark. That's why so many shoppers keep buying Corollas year after year.

Since its 1968 introduction in the U.S., the Toyota Corolla has come in a variety of body styles, including a sedan, coupe, hatchback and wagon. More recently, however, it has only been available as a sedan. Today's Corolla has almost as much rear passenger space as a midsize sedan and its fuel economy is impressive. Although rivals boast sportier designs and more entertaining driving dynamics, a Corolla is nonetheless an excellent choice for smart consumers on a budget.

  Great car, poor mileage - 2004 Toyota Corolla
  By tc - October 28 - 2:03 am

  Poor mileage, 26211 m / 981 g = 26.72 mpg. Awkward steering wheel, seat, foot pedal geometry. Steering wheel too far forward when seat adjusted properly for leg length, youd have to sit in one to understand, its more than just seat position. Fun to drive, reliable, great fit and finish. 07/08 government mileage ratings should reflect more realistic MPG. Very comfortable, lots of room, adequate power. Really poor factory Goodyear Integrity tires only lasted 25K, new Michelin Pilot replacements much better in snow, rain, cornering & MPG.

  Corolla got it goin on - 2005 Toyota Corolla
  By Kris - October 26 - 4:43 pm

  Nice Ride...i think its a great car to invest in knowing that reaching 100,000 miles is no prob. Fuel is great..comfortable ride, just a work of art. The only downside to the car is that the steering wheel is hard to adjust to the drivers seat..and there is a huge blind spot in the back. But other than that the car itself is great and has a lot to offer.

  Most expensive car I have ever bought - 2002 Toyota Corolla
  By drayton_cross - October 25 - 2:13 pm

  I purchased this vehicle one year used with 30,000 miles on it. At first, I enjoyed the vehicle but after the brakes went out, the transmission went out at 70,000 miles, and the interior began to peel away, I decided that the vehicle did not meet my expectations. Despite following all suggested maintenance, the vehicle continued to have serious mechanical failures. The day that the brakes went out frightened me pretty badly. Based on my experience, I dont plan on owning another Corolla.

  Better than a Ford - 1997 Toyota Corolla
  By prevaly - October 25 - 10:00 am

  This car is the most reliable car out there. I had this car for a long time. It never gave me any problem. I did not have to change anything on this car. I had the car oil change every 4,000 miles and it still run smoothly. I had a 98 ford before and it gave me nothing but problem. if you want reliable car pick a toyota.

  Great reliable car! - 2003 Toyota Corolla
  By Chris - October 25 - 2:43 am

  Great reliable car, especially a car for your first. Great fuel economy of the manual transmission (which I have) of highway of 40 mpg. It is comfortable. Have had no problems with it. I have S model, so it looks nice with sport package.

  The only thing I miss was I wish the car had automatic headlight switch. Besides that we love the car.

  Good show - 2010 Toyota Corolla
  By Tee - October 24 - 10:43 am

  My 2010 corolla is great. Only a few slight changes would help it. Its easy to control and is very quiet. I have been having troubles with my trunk opening lever in the car. It hasnt been working recently and I need to get it checked out. Its only been 5 months since Ive had it, so this shouldnt be happening.

  Miles Per Gallon NOT as advertised - 2015 Toyota Corolla
  By rkh88 - October 24 - 1:38 am

  I bought a new Toyota Corolla 2015 based upon the price, size, and miles per gallon. Toyota advertises 29 MPG in the city, 31 combined and 38 on the highway. I have yet to get better than 31 on the highway, and 26 in the city. I am highly disappointed with this. I took it into the dealer, and placed a complaint with Toyota. Since they found "nothing wrong with the car" they did nothing. Very, very disappointing.
