Overview
The 2026 Corolla continues to be the excellent value proposition that has made it a hit for more than five decades. With a low base price, the Corolla offers virtually everything a car owner realistically needs. The Corolla is far more than basic transportation these days, offering a big dose of entertainment along with a good amount of luxury should buyers want that. Despite this, even the most expensive trim level proves that value exists everywhere in the Corolla line-up, no matter what the details are. The Corolla is a worthy competitor to Honda Civic and Mazda 3.
Model Highlights
The 2026 Toyota Corolla sedan is offered in three trim levels, LE, SE, and XSE and the hybrid variant comes in both front-wheel and all-wheel drive options, with trims including LE, SE, XLE. The hatchback trim lineup for 2026 is SE, FX, and XSE. The standard and the hatchback Corolla are powered by a 2L 4-cylinder engine producing 169 horsepower mated to a 10-speed transmission, while the hybrid is equipped with 1.8L 4-cylinder engine delivering 138 horsepower paired to a Continuously Variable Transmission (CVT). Standard features on the base Corolla LE include LED headlights, taillights and daytime running lights, 16-inch wheels, automatic climate control, remote keyless entry, an integrated backup camera, Wi-Fi hotspot, Toyota's Lane Tracing Assist system, an 8-inch touchscreen display, 6-speaker audio system, Satellite radio, and wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto compatibility. Stepping up to the SE trim adds a rear spoiler, heated mirrors with integrated turn signals, 18-inch alloy wheels, premium cloth upholstery, sport front bucket seats, push-button start, passive keyless entry, and a leather-wrapped steering wheel. The top-of-the-line XSE and XLE Hybrid features a power sunroof, heated front seats, an 8-way power adjustable driver seat, cloth and leatherette seats, a 10.5-inch touchscreen display, a voice activated navigation system, wireless device charging, and a 12.3-inch driver information display. Safety features include Toyota's Safety Sense 3.0 Suite, that means all versions of the Corolla come with a pre-collision system, adaptive cruise control with stop-go, lane departure alert with steering assistance, blind spot warning, rear collision warning, automatic high beams, and traffic sign recognition.
