The 2022 Toyota Corolla XSE 6-Speed is a Fun-to-Drive Sporty Hatchback

Toyota's best-selling car, the #Corolla has never proven to be particularly fun or engaging since the 80s. #Toyota has changed that with the newest-generation #Hatchback by offering a 6-speed manual and fun, yet practical styling in this #XSE trim. Now the wait is on for the performance-focused #GRCorolla

I drove the 2.0 hybrid version we get here in Europe earlier this year in the GR sport him level and it was actually an absolute hoot! No wonder they”ve sold more than 50 million of these. 😀👍🏻🚘.

[@ekgcanadianenthusiast9961]

Agreed

[@kristians2704]

the fact that the 2.0 hybrid was “fun” has nothing to do with the 50 million sold units because most of them had different powertrains.

[@callmej3671]

I bought the Corolla Hatchback XSE (2021) with manual transmission as a daily driver vehicle to replace my 2013 Civic that I “gifted” to my new-driver daughter. I chose it specifically because of the manual transmission and specifically because “it’s a Corolla”. I know it has the potential to outlive even the best Hondas, and that should really be its selling point. It turns out to be more fun to drive than I expected, even though it isn’t quick by any measure. But it should never even be considered as an enthusiast’s car - it looks way faster than it actually is. So then….looking forward to one day maybe parking it’s speedy little brother right next to it if I can get my hands on a GR Corolla 😊

I got a 2020 Corolla hatch CVT yesterday and I already love it. Yeah its not fast and you're not gonna win any races but coming from a jeep this thing is really fun to throw around corners and its got plenty of power for everyday driving and a bit to spare. Fuel economy is great and at 6' 2" i can fit behind my seating position comfortably. Also cant beat toyota reliability.

[@islandon22]

It's comparable to a Honda Civic Sport & up. No way an Si. I drove one not long ago. Handling was softer than a Civic, but similar to a Mazda 3. I liked it a lot, but my wife far preferred the Civic Coupe which we bought. (It also edged toward the Civic's superior handling ). We get excited about good gas mileage more than acceleration, for that once a week flooring it out in the desert and gas over $4.25@gal. My gas mileage from day one is 39.5 mpg! And I opted for the CVT because Honda and Toyota have CVT's that run perfectly (unlike Nissan's JATCO CVT trash). Overall, this is a wonderful car, fun to drive, but nothing in this car is cutting edge...like the Si.

[@Mr99Burns]

Handling is more about the driver than the car.

[@1northsparrow246]

Kirk, Someone asked if this was the new Matrix and I would underline your response by calling this Corolla hatch the Anti-Matrix. The Matrix was about space, utility, flexibility and efficiency in a small package. This generation of Corolla hatch is about refinement, fun and relative efficiency in an even smaller package. BTW I was surprised you fit in the back, it just goes to show how many definitions of 'six feet tall' there really are ;-)

0-60 7.5 seconds with the manual per almost every auto publication. This is probably due to the fact you can hit 60 in second gear. Certainly adequate. Also, the car has dual injection with both port and direct which will prevent the carbon build up that is common on direct injection cars. Should be very reliable for a long time. The price markups are just crazy. I can't believe early during the pandemic you could find used varieties with 5k miles for 19k and new ones for 22k.

I’m really hoping the reason the GR Corolla has taken so long to come out is because Toyota decided they’d make a middle ground between the regular hatch and the GR Corolla. The GR Corolla would sell out so quick that making a middle ground Corolla would make more sense. Especially for those who want a bit of a sportier Corolla (quicker, sharper feel, more aggressive, etc.) without paying performance car prices like GR Corolla buyers are going to end up doing.

The Corolla is definitely the easiest car to live with, but I know for enthusiasts, not being as engaging makes the Civic the more appealing choice. If you just commute and need a appliance that will engage you with its three pedals, the Corolla is a good choice. Honestly, I'd sacrifice the better styling of the hatch and go with the SE 4 door with the manual, at least you get better rear space and a moonroof. Had I not owned a Corolla before, I might be driving a sedan because the hatch just seems way too small for me.

[@tom.k7616]

It would be really cool to see some volvo reviews with Q&A

[@LearnAboutFlow]

Unless they radically changed this car since I drove it in 2018, this is just a tarted up Corolla and is nowhere near a competitor for the Si or anything else in that class. It's not a bad thing, but what it says it is and what it is are two separate things. Also one of the most bizarre, if not memorable, test drives I've been on. The dealer was a former club bouncer and spent the whole test drive going into graphic detail about the breasts of the women he dated. Seriously, all within a 15 minute test drive.

And if you want a particular color combination and trim on top of the manual...good luck with that. It's interesting that they decided to put iMT in a non-performance commuter car back in 2019, and still to this day a super rare feature for a manual car.

Real 0-60 test drive good to see. Some do half of the rev range which is 3000 something. You feel the power over 4000 and it’s Ok to drive faster unless you’re doing a car break-in up to 1500 miles. I think the real restriction is not going over 55 miles an hour in that amount of miles under the 1500. So it’s not a fast car but it’s definitely not a slow car either a least the manual is slightly faster.

[@gtslarka]

My 2005 Matrix XRS 6spd is 170hp with a 0-60 of 7.1sec. now that is not a super car level speed but does catch most by surprise for a small wagon. Is it worth trading into the Corolla hatch? New tech, safety features, better fuel economy, regular gas vs the premium I have to put in....but does this motor match up to the 8400 redline from Yamaha.

[@user-hj2kq2vl6y]

I believe that all new Toyota models come with an actively cooled EGR system for greater fuel economy. See, at the higher revs engine produces a ton of heat so quickly that its cooling system can't effectively cool it, which can harm the engine. Earlier on this phenomena was countered by rich fuel mixture (where executive fuel acts like a coolant because there's not enough air for burning it). While effective, this strategy isn't exactly fuel efficient so in the 2000s automakers started to use recirculated exhaust gasses for cooling purposes, because they practically don't react and don"t burn, they are mostly there to fill the volume (+ it's a good way to lower harmful emissions by more through burn). The latest adjuration of this tech employs a radiator system for active cooling of exhaust gasses which completely eliminates the need of enriching fuel mixture for cooling purposes and even allows for much leaner fuel mixture than it was possible before. I think that Mazda with their Sky-active was the first one to deploy this tech in mass production vehicles. Glory to Ukraine!

Is this really THAT much smaller than the Matrix? The Corolla Cross is way bigger than my 2007 Matrix. It does seem that the cargo area and rear seat space are smaller, but the over all packaging is in a similar footprint. What's your take on this? Edit: also, I feel like the Corolla hatch is definitely the direct successor to the Matrix. In the Matrix owners manual if my memory serves me correctly, was literally called the Corolla Matrix. The Corolla Cross is definitely also a 'successor' because just like the Corollas, Priuses, UX, among other models, it is designed upon the Toyota TNGA-C ("GA-C") platform. However, it's definitely a lifted CUV. And YES I know Toyota called the Matrix an SUV... but COME ON it's a freakin hatch. 😂
