Toyota doesn't make "cheap" cars unlike the Mitsubishi Mirage and other American manufacturers. They know Americans don't want a car that has cheap plastics inside or an interior that will fall apart after a few years. Toyota is known for their good build quality and legendary reliabilty
Toyota refreshed the Corolla for 2017, adding a safety sense package standard across the board which includes Pre-Collision System with Pedestrian Detection, Lane Departure Alert with Steering Assist, Dynamic Radar Control and Automatic High Beams. They also had 50th anniversary edition for 2017 and the CVT transmission is now standard
@@angelbabyquinn Does it make noises when you go over a speed bump? Taking a tight turn? Try to describe the noise and how it happens. Just got a Toyota certified used 2016 Corolla LE with 33k miles on it. Huge upgrade from my '99 dodge intrepid lol
Overall the Corolla is safe, economical, reliable, roomy and affordable. Negatives are underpowered engine, poor handling and no Android Auto/Apple CarPlay.
I would never get a Turbo they put too much stress on the engine and then they don't last as long. That is the main thing that makes it a reliable car is that the are natural aspirated. This model the 2016 has plenty of power I can over take any car with mine and I have no issues going up hill there is no lag. Toyotas are great cars because the company knows its products and make them better a little at a time until they have a perfect product and they learn from their mistakes.
@@santosrios66 best selling doesn't mean best overall. This is the best you can get for your money. Maintaining the Corolla is not only extremely affordable but they require maintenance less frequently than Honda's. Honda's suck as they fall apart after 4 years
Nice video. I hope to look up some of your other videos. Compared to some of the other reviewers, you don't have a robotic, "scripted" delivery. You don't grate on my ears like Saabkyle or Cameron cars reviews. Hek, even the Fast Car lane, I find them a little tough to enjoy. So awesome job!
Thanks for the compliment, Joe! I really enjoy doing these reviews and I'm glad you're finding them useful. I have some great reviews coming up so stay tuned!
Power seats would be over doing it in this class just a Tad. I don't know why more power would be expected with its intended purpose? Gas mileage is where this car could use an "update". It's not the best in terms of fuel economy. I recently got a quote for a mid level LE for $15k.
I’m not sure where that absurd number is coming from. I put 80,000 miles on my 2016 corolla. All I’ve needed were oil changes, brakes, and a CVT drain and fill. 37.8 MPG AVG
I wish Toyota had valet security on these things for instance having a completely different key or a plastic credit card key for just the ignition, locks for the 6040 receipts so there is no access to the trunk and a by directional lock for the trunk so we cannot be open except with the master key
I’m about to change mine at 70 and I have a 2018 do you think in your opinion that will be just fine I know how to change it correctly I just need to have some assurance I feel guilty for not changing it at 60 I just could not afford it at the time that fluid is $100 for one can and I know I’m gonna need more than one after draining the bypass also..
The CVTs made by Toyota/Aisin are very robust, just do a fluid change at the dealer every 60k miles and it'll last. I have a 2016 Corolla with 70k miles and it runs and shifts silky smooth. Just make sure the car is at a full stop before selecting park, drive or reverse, also oil and oil filter changes every 5k miles ALWAYS.
Manual or the L model with a automatic transmission. The CVT's can be problematic if you don't know how to drive them. Plenty of information online about Toyota's CVT's
Don’t listen to the guy above. The 4 speed auto is absolutely sluggish and shifts like a granny. Toyotas CVT is better than other companies even if it’s not perfect.
132 horsepower from a car that only weighs 2700 lb is excellent but I would like to see is independent suspension in the rear and 4 wheel disc brakes and I wish mine had a stick manual transmission
@@southernberean8166 a catchcan wont save your engine from neither of those, friend of mine had 2 catchcans on his and when we took the intake apart... oh god
all driving training schools use only toy coralla hands down. go to you local Dept of Motor Vehicle testing site and we of driving insrtucters use only toy corollas never civics never civics because toy corollas are the best value
Toyota are smart because toyota no they'll make money selling the same motor that will last forever. Just to say i bet in the next 4 to 5 years the corolla will be a nice car cause you guys are for getting the corolla ae86 and there will be another ae86 soon.
I've read that the L models with the gears instead of the CVT (belt style) lasts longer but there is a learning curve with driving a CVT based engine. Basically you don't want to add excessive tension to the "pull" of the car. Found a website online that broke it down
Terrible videos! We need videos that cover the engineering aspects if the cars, most channels simply read from the manufacturer brochure, or at least it sounds like that’s what they’re doing.
