Toyota Corolla: Toyota Corolla Sedan
built 643 days ago
The current Corolla sedan, which was redesigned in 2003, occupies a space in the Toyota lineup above the entry-level Yaris and below the Camry mid-size sedan. Available in CE, LE, and S trim levels, all Corolla models include air conditioning and a CD player. The sporty S trim adds an aerodynamic body kit, snazzier interior trim, wider tires, and power door locks. The LE shuns the sporty trim but adds power windows and mirrors, remote keyless entry, wood interior trim, and electroluminescent gauges. Anti-lock brakes are optional on all models; seat-mounted side air bags and electronic stability control are optional on S and LE trims—the latter only with the automatic transmission. Now that the XRS is gone, all Corollas are powered by a 126-hp, 1.8-liter engine with variable valve timing, which drives the front wheels through either a 5-speed manual or 4-speed automatic transmission.

Toyota's venerable Corolla has gone through many changes since it was first introduced almost 40 years ago. Over the course of its long life, the Toyota Corolla has appeared as a hatchback, coupe, wagon and sedan. Enough people in the world have chosen this Toyota model to make it the best-selling nameplate in the history of automobiles. As you might therefore expect, the Corolla has earned a significant amount of undeterred loyalty.

The Corolla is Toyota's compact-sized sedan. The Corolla became available in the US in 1968, making it the first Toyota car to be sold in America. Corollas are known for their value and reliability, making them a popular choice for first-time car owners but ... for commuters and those looking for a no-fuss, low maintenance vehicle.

"Toyota's compact sedan is short on excitement but long on consumer appeal, mainly because of the Corolla's reputation for reliability. It is ... nicely made and has slick powertrains. It finished third in a 10-car comparison test, but most competitors have been overhauled since." - Car and Driver

At present, Toyota claims the idea of attracting younger buyers with its 2003 Corolla which actually looks like a smaller version of the Camry. This model is available as a base CE, luxury LE or commonly known as the Sporty S. It rides on a 102.4 inch wheelbase, and with additional excellent rack-and-pinion steering, this car comes as close to a luxury car ride as any small economy sedan manufactured offers.
