Toyota corolla great car!

Zero problems great mileage gas is cheap with my car. Has a sensor that lets me know I am crossing the white line when I drive. I have had zero issues with my car I just keep maintaining it follow up with oil changes and things like that. The look is very nice and it is the perfect size car.

Toyota I am, a great way to ride.

My vehicle has eco friendly mode and has great gas mileage. It is low which does not help with potholes or high curbs. It also can speed up when need be and the brakes are fantastic. The interior is really comfortable and the cruise control it great as well.

Aj B

Sporty and all around reliable vehicle.

Fairly slow on eco mode yet fast on sport mode. Sound system is not the best but the touch screen radio is a plus. Bulkier than the next years model but still the same mpg. Fairly comfortable ride for shorter drivers and passengers. Does have a built in color changing lights under the dash on both the driver and passenger side. Smooth shifts yet slow starting acceleration.

Pros/cons of the 2018 corolla I am.

The corolla I am is a smaller car so there is little room in the backseat. It drives smooth and there is a lot of room in the trunk. The sport mode does not make much of a difference and the drifting lanes only works sometimes. The automatic stop works well especially when parking. The parking screen is large and makes it easy to get into small spaces.

Easy drive with a fabulous ride.

I love my 2018 corolla I am. It is a great vehicle for a single young person like me. It is got great fuel economy, and is very easy to drive. The size is just big enough to fit everything I need, while still being small and easy to maneuver. I have a bright blue color and I love the vibrant color exterior, and the black interior.

Logan M

Amazing car with comfortable seating.

Sometimes I feel that in the first two gears it is torque is really low so trying to accelerate can be a bit rough. On some inclines the car can have a difficult time getting up due to the low torque in the first few gears. The manual feature can also be tricky when shifting from 1st to 2nd like it does not register if you do not commit to shifting.

Amazing gas mileage, amazing safety features, fits comfortably for family.

I absolutely love my car. It has many safety features that are a nice addition to this vehicle. It has a lot more than you think, built in canto your rear view mirror which links to sensors which allows the car to automatically start breaking if you are approaching fast to a breaking car to lane departure alerts to automatic turn on of lights to do many more nest features. My favorite thing about the car is the amazing gas mileage.

Lauren S

I highly recommend this vehicle.

This vehicle is really great on gas. It is a really reliable car to get you to any place you want no matter how far you are traveling. The hatchback gives you plenty of room to be able to put things in the trunk as well as if you put the back seats down. The only issue I have with the car is how low it is to the ground so it tends to bottom out a lot.

Negative Owner Reviews

Perfectly average in every way, the Toyota corolla is thoroughly competent.

Everything that is good about the vehicle is that it has decent value, flexible corolla Im hatchback, refined demeanor, roomy interior, great safety record. But some bad qualities about it is that it will not win a drag race, no high-end options, light on personality, and CVT can drone on.

Sanjana B

Very sturdy, strong, reliable, takes too much gas.

I love my Toyota corolla. It had been driving fine for 10 years now. My only problem with Toyota is that it takes too much gas. A filled tank of gas lasts only 1 week. It is very reliable and sturdy. The seats are somewhat comfortable. My Toyota car is very sturdy and the same time it is also very light. It is compact and durable. I have traveled from north coast to south coast with my Toyota and the journey was smooth without any nasal. My only problem with my car is that it is so light that it used to skid on ice a lot. It had not fog light which made it very difficult driving through fog.It's been 10 years my car is with me and the car is still very strong and sturdy which makes me feel proud and happy. I am going to keep my car with me throughout life.

Ben N

A decent car but do a thorough test drive before saying yes.

Negatives: car gets moderate gas mileage for the size. Fogs up very easily on rainy days. Blind spots are extensive due to the small rear window and large pillars. Stereo does not play very well with android, much better with iOS. As a short driver, it can be hard to get a sense of the vehicle's exterior (knowing how close you are to curbs, etc). Positives: car warms up quite quickly in the winter and has good ac in the summer. Car is easy to shift (have a manual). Put 40k miles on the car in the first year and overall it drives well.

Matt

Bad headlights

The car is cool but I had to replace the ac compressor at 50000 and I have replaced the headlights 3 times now. I dont like that when a headlight blows both lights go out. That's not safe.

Matt L

Neat car, sport mode, wow.

The sport mode of the Toyota corolla is fun. The seats in the Toyota corolla are comfortable. The car is lightweight. The car corners well. The car is good on gas. The car's acceleration is ok. The car is pretty safe. The truck of the 2018 Toyota corolla is spacious.

Pamela W

Toyota corolla is an easy to drive car, easy to maintain and easy to handle.

The vehicle is easy to drive and is comfortable. However, the trunk space is not roomy enough. Also, the car seems to need little maintenance and when there is a problem it is easy to locate a mechanic to work on the car. Also, the car handles well and is easy to steer and maneuver into parking spaces.

Harold Q

My vehicle is very good on fuel. It has never had any issues with maintenance.

No problems vehicle is always working very well. No issues to report. Have always changed the oil on time. Vehicle is very clean never any damage. The Toyota is one of the best built cars in my opinion I would never buy another car. It has served me well.

This car has the reliability of a sedan with the style of a sporty hatchback.

This vehicle is very comfortable and has a very stylish interior. The dark interior gives it a sporty feel. The hatchback style makes for a very spacious trunk area. I especially like the feature that tracks the fuel economy to help me get drive in a way that helps me get the most out of my fuel.

Pros from Owners

Angela S.

I like it because it is simple and really easy to drive and affordable. It also has a decent amount of trunk space and the seats are comfortable. All in all, it is a nice, simple, and. Fuel efficient car.

Diana H.

Great on gas/Eco. Drives very smooth. Cheap repairs. Built in back camera. Great features like when you are driving on the line the car will peep at you to stay in your lane. Good sound system to hear music. Spacious enough.

Cons from Owners

Angela S.

There are no cons. It is kind of short to the ground but I feel like that is more of a preference issue. The front trim inside the car near the touch screen also does not match the rest of the car, but that might just be mine.

Diana H.

I honestly do not have any complaints on the car, I love it. Not only does it save me money on gas with the Eco built into it but it also drives so smoothly. Safety features are a plus and very helpful since I cannot see in the rain. I would recommend this car a hundred times over because not only is it affordable it is also reliable.
