Choices abound as you begin to consider the many performance variations of the Toyota Corolla. With each trim level, you’ve got the chance to enjoy some great fuel economy.
For good returns on each fuel tank fill-up, stick with the base 1.8L 4-cylinder motor. This standard engine provides an EPA-estimated 30 city/38 highway MPG.1 You can also opt for the 2.0L 4-cylinder engine, which has an EPA-estimated 31 city/40 highway MPG on the Corolla SE trim.1
If you want to step up to an even greater fuel economy, you can transition to the 1.8L hybrid motor, which offers stellar EPA-estimated returns of 53 city/52 highway MPG.1
With the Toyota Corolla providing such robust fuel economy numbers, most drivers think the car must sacrifice some power—but that’s not the case. If you want an efficient sedan with a little pep, the Corolla is the car for you.
The 2.0L 4-cylinder engine serves as the most energetic of the three motors, giving you the chance to work with 169 horsepower and 151 lb-ft of torque. Switch on the Sport driving mode for extra on-road zip. For the ability to row your own gears, choose the optional 6-speed Intelligent Manual Transmission.
These performance figures mixed with the car’s modest curb weight—which can sink below 3,000 pounds—creates a spry and eager sedan that effortlessly guides through hard corners.
As driver and passenger enjoyment are at the top of the Toyota Corolla priority list, you’ll find the cabin is roomy and inviting.

If cargo space is on your mind, the trunk’s 13.1 cubic feet of cargo volume is enough for many everyday needs.
