I needed a second/ commuter car that looks cool and gets great gas mileage. Car is smooth to drive, nice steering feel doesn't have that front wheel drive steering pull in corners, has plenty of go to get out in traffic. Interior is nice and comfortable, infotainment system is good and stereo is better than expected! It needs a subwoofer to fill in sound. I'm getting 30+ in combination city/hi way driving motor is still breaking in with 600 miles on it. Over all I like it alot! Alot better that my CLA250 for less that half the price.

It is a very sporty, cool looking hatchback! The hatchback lid makes the storage area look small, but the lid goes up as you store more supplies in the back! It has remarkable take off power, smooth and zippy! We were surprised at the blastoff feeling from a stopped position. The CVT is smooth and quiet. Nice! AC is cold, cold, COLD! The backup video makes backing up much less stressful and easier! Plenty of storage in glove compartment and else within the front seat area. The only thing we really don't love is how low it sits to the ground, but that is a small complaint compared to all of the great value of this enjoyable car!

I tried to buy a Toyota Hybrid, ALL were either pre-sold or were marketed over sticker & most with big profit Dealer add-ons with one purpose, to jack up the price. I stumbled on this slick available Corolla SE Hatchback with sticker milage ratings of 32/41 MPG. We took it for a test drive, loved it & bought it for sticker price (+ armor coating) a markup dealer add-on. First off this is not a "hot Hatch" with a high rev screaming engine, it Is however, a peppy commuter with adequate power AND a tight build with no squeaks or rattles not to mention it's bigger on the inside than the outside. It's got just about everything (other than heated seats) & includes two years of service for very little cash. We've had it nearly two weeks, in that time we haven't driven our 2023 BMW X2 once. We're averaging near Hybrid 35 MPG at ten to twenty grand less than a Toyota Hybrid We love it

I own the 2020 6 speed manual se and have been driving it for almost a year now. It is slow off the line for a sporty model but the handling around curves is great. First gear is short and shift distance is long between 1-2, but nothing terrible. Gas mileage varies between gas type and driving type. Under perfect highway conditions I pulled 45mpg off a tank. 45 mpg!! Driving sporty will bring that as low as 32 on the highway but can settle as high as 37-38 as long as you are driving below 65-70. Adaptive cruise control makes long drives a breeze and with a manual you can even downshift and while the car is breaking and stay locked in to the cars automatic controls. The se manual didn’t come with blind spot detection which was a letdown but I purchased some mirrors that help. Trunk space is tight, but the fact I can routinely pull 40mpg on a highway makes up for it. En-suite entertainment system for Toyota is useless as apple car play and android do everything needed. Rear leg room is not for adults unless you are a shorter driver. I’m 6’ 2” and I drive just fine. Interior Stitching is classy and exterior design is sleek and has definite curb appeal. Dual exhaust system makes this car look like high end cars compared to the standard exhaust pipes found in many models. LDA (lane departure) works well but this car does not have LTA ( lane tracing) which some people may like. I tested a highlander for 3 weeks with LTA and it was a bit much anyways. Overall my favorite feature of the car is the adaptive cruise control which keeps a very safe distance between cars and can also be adjusted, where the minimal distance, while aggressive, still feels safe enough while driving on the highway. Great car for a single commuter or a couple with maybe only small kids.
Sporty, Reliable, and FUN!

Dependable, good-looking, comfortable, and convenient. All very relatable adjectives to describe what the Corolla Hatchback delivers to its user. If you want the full experience, get the 6-speed. This car has just the right amount of spunk to take corners with high RPMs.

Is a Corolla a race Car? No but my 2022 Black Nightshade Corolla Hatchback looks the part. And honestly, it handles like one and driving it makes you think it is more than it is and with a CVT. I am totally satisfied with my little hot hatchback and thus far am getting 43 MPH and that is hand calculated. It is roomy and economical and best of all, fun to drive. As i have already stated, it is not a race car, performance numbers verify that but do not tell the little car that as she thinks she is a race car and keeps me involved as thinking I'm driving at Le Mans with Steve McQueen, guess that shows my age. If you are looking for a good all around car with great economy and one that takes you into a fantasy race world, I recommend a Corolla Hatchback, you will not be disappointed,

I was needing an addition vehicle in the summer of the chip shortage, when used car prices were skyrocketing to ridiculous heights and many new cars were hard to find on dealer lots locally, with those arriving being pre-sold. I stumbled on a listing at a Toyota dealer 100 miles away for a new Corolla Hatchback SE. The car had few options, but fit exactly what I needed - good fuel efficiency, good safety features, strong reputation for reliability, and a good driving experience. I found a used 2019 model locally to drive and was convinced. I really like the small size and maneuverability of this car. It turns sharply, with little body lean as you drive around curves. The ride is smooth and comparable to my 2015 Camry SE. The engine provides usable power but it does not feel quick, only adequate. The trade off is excellent mpg with the cvt transmission. The first drive was back from the dealership located 100 miles away on two lane highways mainly. Indicated mpg for the trip was 47 mpg! Due to break-in recommendations, I did not use cruise control at all and was varying my speeds somewhat. I hope this efficiency remains. It is a bit loud, especially at higher speeds, but for the $ I did not expect luxury. Many reviews say the backseat is tight. This is true in one respect. Leg room is tight. Depending on how long the driver's legs are, the back seat leg room may become severely restricted. I am 5'10" with short legs. I can sit in the back with no problem with the driver's seat set to my liking. Headroom and hip room are excellent. The hatch cargo area is smallish, but, again, it is a small car. We fit a standard grocery run in there just fine (4 bags upright, case of beverages, and on gallon of milk, plus had some extra room. If you need more space put down one side of the 60/40 split backseat. I have other cars, including an SUV, so cargo space is not a huge problem. This car reminds me a lot of a 1995 Acura Integra that I owned. That former car has a 140 hp engine with low torque and a hatchback. This Corolla feels similar, has more power, better mpg, and two people car sit in the back easily. The Integra's steering was better, but not too much. This Corolla is a high value car You get a lot for your $. It has all this safety stuff, including the fact it reads traffic signs and projects the speed limit on your dash as you drive. It has pedestrian and bicycle detection, etc. Toyota Safety Sense 2.0 is great. Plus, surprisingly, it has remote start. It is not mentioned anywhere, but our sales person showed us how to use it. Push lock button three times, holding the button on the third press and it will start the engine and run for up to ten minutes. That can be a godsend in my northern climate. I really like this car so far. Great everyday vehicle.

Can't say enough positives about my 2020 Toyota Corolla Hatchback! I travel on 10,000 plus road elevations with no difficulty whatsoever. More than enough horsepower present to accomplish this task. MPG is close to 38. Highway driving is a breeze with sufficient horsepower to pass vehicles safely. Cargo space is sufficient for the size of the car. This is a winner of a car and relatively inexpensive for what you get. Highly recommend the 2020 Toyota Corolla Hatchback SE.

Extremely happy with this vehicle. Reliable , dependable, looks awesome , very fun to drive , the cvt just cruises on the highway, handling makes it fun flying around corners, Apple car play , nice touch screen, led headlights and tail lights. Excellent gas mileage , Toyota quality and reliability. If you’re looking for a car this size there is absolutely no other option. I seriously have no complaints, get a Toyota Corolla hatchback - you’ll be happy you did.

All components and assembly are made in Japan. Very easy handling and stylish. Decided to put roof racks instead of rear window spoiler (too sporty and hot the eyes of vandals). I was afraid that it will be too cramped but surprisingly it has a nice head room (I'm 5-9) unlike the CHR. Still low on ground clearance so it takes more effort to get out from.
Great

Traded in a 2014 Mini Cooper Countryman S that was starting to cost to much to run. Actually ordered a new Mini and then decided this was a smarter choice plus it's $14k cheaper! Corolla is still made in Japan and it shows with the build quality (reminds me of my 4runner). Would not of considered this vehicle if it didn't come w/a manual. The manual is like butter and makes the car much more enjoyable/fun. The jury is still out on the iMT feature. I don't need help with my shifting and fortunately you can turn it off (and it stays off). Cars size is about as small as I would go. In fact, my Countryman had more room inside except for the rear cargo area. I love that this has a spare tire, but make sure the Corolla you buy has one. Toyota has an option for a lower rear cargo floor and it removes the spare. I bought the SE as I didn't see much value in going w/XSE trim. You don't get any more performance from spending more money and 18" rims on this car is overkill. The OEM tires are pure garbage and actually designed for Mitsubishi's electric car. Put a set of sticky tires on it and go have fun! Great lil' runabout and you can't beat cheap fun. One of the last few cheap imports to still have a bit of a soul. I will miss my Mini, but resale and reliability are more important than style these days :-) UPDATE 12/14/2021- Sold it as it was no longer needed. I will say I got tired of the weak engine. Driving it floored all the time was not much fun. Also, hitting my head getting things out of the rear seat was getting old. Car is fine for a small person, but that's about it. It did handle and ride well. Sold it used for more than I paid new...thanks Covid!

This car is a gem. The 6-speed shifts like a dream. Excellent acceleration for its HP/Torque range and so comfortable for front passengers under 6’. Yes, cargo space is limited in the back and so are the rear seats BUT you should recognize and accepted this before buying it. Has the legendary Toyota 2.0 i4 masterpiece of an engine that is proven and projected to last 300k+ miles assuming YOU do your part. One of the Best small commuter cars out there that is nearly half the price of avg brand new vehicles. LOVE.

If you want any kind of performance, you need to get a Corolla with a manual transmission. The CVT is a total dog, a real tragedy for this 168hp motor. I tried the "manual" mode with the paddle shifters, and I tried using the "sport" button. Neither helped. The lag between pressing the accelerator and anything happening other than an ugly droning noise was just bad. I cross-shopped this model vs. the Mazda 3 (which has an actual torque converter automatic) and the Kia Soul, which also has a 2.0L and a CVT. The 2020 Soul's CVT is new this year, but is much better executed, and the Mazda has a larger 2.5L engine. Either would be a better choice, the Mazda (a FWD hatch is about the same price as the Toyota) having way more zip, and the Soul having both better power delivery and more cargo space. Driving either of them back to back with the Corolla hatch and you won't find much reason to buy the Toyota.
Great 2nd car

its alright, not a race car but you can do some good driving with this, you can kinds drift with it, you can kinda race with it, but you will not win unless youre really good or lucky. thats how i can describe the performance for this car. but its efficient for a non hybrid. i average 35 combined mpg. it looks very nice, people love the car. i think it looks great. you can carry $300 worth of groceries if you drive alone. trunk can fit only around $100. the interior for a corolla is great. dash is clean and everything is a touch away. front seats are comfortable, back seats however cannot be used for a long trip or for very tall people. the piano black has to stop, ive already scratched and damaged the plastic after a year. sound system has already been blown out after doing max volume for about 100+ hours of loud bassy music. definitely recommend an aftermarket sound system. build quality is a 8/10 since im already getting noises from im guessing is the steering column (but that may be my fault for driving it a little rough), and the piano black like i mentioned earlier. also toyota multimedia just sucks. it works 90% of the time, but its buggy and you will notice when youre going 300k miles with it.

"Reputation" sums it up well. It is the best selling car in the world and known for being bulletproof. I anticipate having my '22 XSE hatchback 6MT version of the legendary Corolla for decades and hundreds of thousands of miles. Everything about this vehicle feels solid, durable, and designed to last. It is a beautiful car inside and out and a pleasure to drive!

We purchased this vehicle, a 2021 Toyota Corolla Hatchback XSE, in conjunction with and for our 16-yo son, and I must to say it brought me back in time to my teenage years. It’s so much fun to drive, quick (enough) and nimble, well-equipped and sporty. It’s by no means a sports-car, but it’s an absolute pleasure to drive, and with the bulletproof reliability of the Toyota brand behind it. I couldn’t be more pleased!
