Watch our Corolla Review
The Toyota Corolla has been one of the best selling cars since it’s birth in the 60s. Did you know? That there is a Corolla sold approximately every 15 seconds worldwide. Still, to this day, it’s the most popular passenger car on the road. So, why is it that the Corolla still remains the world’s favourite vehicle? Let us tell you!
A cool and captivating design that will make heads turn
The Corolla Hatch has been completely redesigned and looks more stunning then ever before. With its sleek sporty exterior design, it’s no wonder it has been dubbed the most attractive Corolla yet. The interior features soft surfaces and a two-tone colour design that makes you feel like you’re driving a high-end luxury car. This car was made to be shown off!
Built to go the distance
The new Corolla is built to drive and handle better than earlier models. Under the hood, there have been significant improvements like the addition of a 2.0L Dynamic Force Petrol Engine and CVT Transmission to make the Corolla more powerful and fun to drive than ever before. Even with these improvements, the Corolla still has even better fuel efficiency than its predecessors.
An easily affordable Hybrid
The latest Corolla Hybrid engine option provides the ideal balance between fuel economy, low emissions and performance, and it’s now available on all grades for a much more affordable price than you think! Toyota’s Hybrid technology delivers impressive acceleration and fuel efficiency and a much quieter driving experience than ever before. Enjoy less stopping and more going with no need to plug-in, as the latest 1.8L engine is combined with the responsive electric motor which charges itself while you drive. It’s easy to see why millions of drivers worldwide have made the switch.
