Positive Review

"I love this compact car."

I owned a lot of Toyotas like Prius, Camrys, Avalons, Highlander, and Sequoia. This is my first small car from Toyota (I used to have Nissan Sentras, Mitsubishi Lancers, 2003 Accord coupe). So far, I love my new Corolla LE. It is quieter than the previous version Corolla and other car in its class that I rented (I usually rent cars for 3 days to compare them before buying one). Right now, I am getting 37 mpg combined. Interior is nice especially the dashboard, with easy to control radio and temperature. The available reverse camera is very helpful. Seats are comfortable, but quite hard for my taste though. Although the exterior may look aggressive or sporty especially with a standard LED headlights, but it is not a sports car. It is a modern compact car that focus more in reliability, comfort, and safety and fuel economy. Overall, this 2014 Corolla is a balance of economy of small car and comfort of bigger cars.

"UNEXPECTEDLY UNRELIABLE"

Great car, between what expected at first. Good looking, functional, but with less than 4500 miles... Broken CVT, replaced under warranty but now handles differently... in a poor manner. Sad, had so good previous Toyota experiences that I was fully convinced when I bought this one that I will have a reliable trouble free operation for years...

Best car I've ever owned.

This is my 2nd Corolla. I'm a single woman on a fixed income. I wanted a simple, reliable, good looking car. The safety features are life saving. Great little car!

Reliability is underrated
Pros

Gas mileage. Comfortablity, Dependability

Cons

Semi high mileage

I purchased this about a week ago so some of my review is premature. But the Toyota Corolla was my top choice. You can't tell it's 5+ yrs old. I'm just a practical car owner. Reliable transportation is my favorite type of car lol

2016 Corolla S Premium

Reliable, east to drive, full options, gas mileage in the 30's. Good power. Only improvement is the road noise on freeway. More flooe insulation.

My Corolla by Kenneth

Reliable comfortable & affordable
Pros

Reliable stylist affordable

I have owned Toyota vehicles since August of 1981. I purchased my Corolla on August 31, 2016. I swear by the quality and affordability of the brand. By doing the required maintenance I have never had a major issue with the brand. There is no other car brand that I would recommend. I’m not able to show pictures of my current Corolla but she is just over 100k and maybe the last vehicle I own.
