Matt! I have had my SE man for 6mos. What sold me was your review (1430) . Yes, it's a blast to drive! Way way way... better handling and aerodynamics than the old model. 170hp in a Corolla = FUN. Cool feature no one told me about was the car holds itself in place until the tires turn. No roll backs when starting on a hill. As a skilled driver I felt a tad insulted at first, but now I love that feature. Especially street parking in the winter. Great review. Pete in Canada.

Newer Toyota's have auto headlights. Once set to auto, headlights come on automatically when it's dark or you're driving in inclement weather and the wiper blades are on. Great safety feature. I see idiots in Nissan Rogues do that because those DRLs can't be turned off. They don't realize that all lights aren't turned on.

I leave it automatic mode. Set and forget it so. So, the DRL go off and the headlights come on at night automatically. I've seen people either don't have lights or just have their DRL when its getting dark. For safety reasons, I think the government should require auto headlights on all cars so that those iditots don' t be driving without lights or just DRL when it's not quite dark.

Matt, This is a terrific review of an impressive car. The SE manual may be the best Corolla 'sports sedan' that we have ever seen. With so many fundamental improvements built into this generation, it is such a pity the interior dimensions of the new sedan/hatch won't fit taller drivers and passengers. Watching you gleefully shift through the gears makes me wonder again why Toyota won't build a manual Camry to further enhance the vastly improved dynamics of its TNGA platform. For the record, I will note that Canadians also get a base L with a #manual for thousands less than the SE. Lastly, you deserve credit for disclosing the fact you are the guest of Toyota at events like this. Disclaimers like that should be a mandatory part of every KZbin review.

The interior quality has really improved on the 2020 + and is a very welcome change. These commuter cars do not need to go fast or be sporty, but comfort has always been lacking and am so glad they finally did something about it. Is one of the reasons I just bought a new 22 and am really enjoying it so far, it's only got just a lil over 300mi and am in the process of breaking it in. It's what I love about buying new, I know what's been done to it and will break it in right. The armrests are padded and made of a nice n soft material, plus the dash isn't hard plastic any longer either and have really changed it all up a lot

This looks terrific. The 2020 Corolla is really making a strong case for itself. Consistent, reliable power (NA ftw), bulletproof engine, cozy ride with sharp handling and a plush interior. It’s hard to turn such a well rounded car down. On another note, manual! What a crazy world we live in where a Corolla gives a stellar manual when the new 2019 Mazda3 sedan doesn’t give one at all (and it’ll cost 3k more 🤣🤣🤣)

There’s a reason for this - they share a lot of parts except for the engine, which has an extremely high compression ratio, and even lower reliability than the Focus engine.

Just bought the 2020 corolla se 6mt, the iMT literally makes this car so easy to drive, you don't even have to touch the gas when down shifting. I keep that off but its nice to have for road trips or just those days. Infotainment is great, except there isnt ANDROID AUTO yet and they told me it had it. Licensing issues need to be addressed and I'm hoping it comes to my car :(. The 6speed does have long throws and second gear is a bit odd shifting into, but it's a solid transmission that's easy for beginners and easy to feel the gears. Very nice car, and I'm glad I bought it. Will be getting the cross bars and praying for android auto.

It's time they got this one issue resolved for all their vehicles.

Now, they just need to add it to their trucks... and bring back something like the old mid 90s Nissan hardbody compact trucks. Those were so awesome. Great video... manual cvt has nothing on the true driving pleasure of a REAL manual, with a clutch. You have to have a clutch to really FEEL the joy of driving.

I test drove an SE hatch and an XSE hatch both CVT because it's all they had, and I was very impressed with the driving dynamics and comfort. I was not impressed by the lack of sunroof availability on any trim level, no android auto, and no remote start available. I did like the look overall, 18" wheels are beauty, and the safety suite with everything standard, and wireless charging pad. The hatch is really small in the backseat, and something like the Honda fit has much more usable cargo capacity than the Corolla hatch, but if max MPG and comfort for 1 or 2 people are your game, this car is definitely worth a look. The CVT is really that good honestly.

IMO, if you want the most higher trim of Corolla (XSE) then go for Forte GT (Here in Canada it is fully loaded) and vice- versa. 2020 Corolla price jump from SE to XSE is too high, however less fun to drive compared to Forte GT (i.e hp 169 vs 201) which you can get it with almost same price (there is no manual option for GT in Canada tho and some time its a deal breaker). Because of the reliability of corolla, the resale value will potentially hold more value than any other brands and as resale value usually does not differ much from trim to trim (most of the old car buyers don’t bother about trims rather than the model and brand), lower trims to XSE will allow you more bang of your buck after couple of years! BTW, according to me, 2020 Forte GT (most higher trim of Forte) is way better (i.e interior and exterior styling, features, infotainment, warranty, road noise etc) in almost every sectors than 2020 Corolla XSE except the reliability that is well known for all the Toyota cars (I do respect Toyota, I believe no brands can beat Toyota in terms of reliability, I had Toyota in past) in which area Kia is coming forward as well (please see the reliability rating of last few years on small sedan cars). However, XSE and Forte GT both are very good cars. If you can afford, get any one from these two based on your preference! Taste varies person to person! BTW Enjoy mate!

I had planned on buying a Mazda6 manual this year but that is gone so I was then going to get another Mazda3 sedan with manual but it isn't offered either. I love the way my 06 drives, it is fun. Which Toyota drives better... the 6sp sedan or hatchback?

Great video Matt. I plan on buying a 6 speed manual corolla in the near future. What is your opinion of these dynamic force engines that Toyota is putting in these new corollas? Are they as reliable as corollas in the past or is it too soon to tell?

@@JDsHouseofHobbies Sucking on a lemon yeah, I can see that. Lol. If Toyota stayed with the hatchback front end it would pass as ok, but they bought the top edge of the guppy mouth forward. It looks strange and heavy looking. The rear end doesn't look quite right either. There seems to be a lot of design elements in vehicles that are just put there to be different.

Breck Greenwall it is a bit overdone, but the super clean rear makes up for it. And as “a bit much “ as the front end admittedly is, it is less “a bit much” than the rear of the current Civic.

I have a 2018 se, nice little car, 2600 miles and I have a rattle in the dash and my mpg isn’t as good as it’s supposed to be, lot of road noise. I like the cvt so far, the engine runs like a top, over all its a great little grocery getter and looks sporty.

I owned a 2005 Corolla XRS manual. So much fun to drive the only gripe I had is engine would stall at about 2k rpm on cold start and on stop and go traffic. The dealership said there was no recall for my model. Regardless, I would still buy another Corolla, maybe an automatic.

I just bought a new car for commuting. Got a 2019 Hyundai Sonata SE (11 miles on it) for $18,127. I know Hyundai isn’t up to Toyota’s reliability reputation or resale value, but I feel like there is very little value in the cars they sell these days. Last generation Camry was a “value”. Toyota is using their reputation to over charge in my opinion. The Corolla with very similar equipment is 5 grand more than a full sized sedan (Sonata) which is labeled “mid-size” to be in a more competitive market. I test drove the 2019 Camry. I greatly preferred the SE Camrys looks over my car, but I also preferred the Sonatas clean & function interior layout, the automatic in the Sonata is way smoother, has a quieter cabin, and the interior space/trunk/overall comfort (especially the back seats) is better in the Sonata. The last generation Camry SE you could’ve got the sticker price down to 20k ish. Now you’re lucky if you can get it below 25k. I’ll choose value over a prestigious logo any day, and this is coming from a guy who owned an Audi S-line too.

Well to be fair, the MSRP for your Sonata is over 23k. If we're comparing MSRP vs. MSRP, the base Camry is only about $500 more. You were able to knock 5k off your Sonata's price because it's at the end of its generation with a redesigned 2020 model being revealed in April. This Camry generation is only 2 years old. In time there will be discounts on these new Toyotas as well if someone wants to wait for them. I agree though that historically, Hyundai usually hands out bigger discounts which is great as long as you don't plan to sell it, since it hurts resale.

Hyundai/KIA cars drive like an appliance. I drove Elantra GT Sport 6MT, it is supposed to be their "hot-hatch" and it was terrible. First gear does not accelerate at all, just gets going. Acceleration starts when you switch to 2nd gear. Rear headroom is bad. Interior is dirt-cheap, but MSRP was actually comparable to Toyota/Honda. Koreans are still very bad with handling and engines, but they compensate by overloading features: standard LED headlights, cooled seats etc. But I would rather buy a car that is enjoyable to drive. It is sad, but 2018 Honda Fit 6MT with torsion beam is more fun to drive than 2018 Elantra GT Sport 6MT with multilink setup.

I sat in the back seat of a hatch version today and was really surprised how poor both the rear legroom was and how awkward ingress/egress was from the back seat. Curious if the shape of the sedan improves this a touch over the hatch. There is a lot to like about this car, but the one step backward is definitely interior space utilization.

syncro87 The Sedan will have more backseat legroom. How often do you have passengers in the backseat? The Hatch is workable for occasional passengers in the back on short trips but it is generally a single person or couples car... mine will have the backseat folded down 95% of the time. Now if they would just bring the New Corolla SportWagon to the US, that would be a great option!- more backseat room and the cargo hauling capacity of a true wagon/hatchback. #bringbackthewagon #wewantwagons #hopetheygiveusanAWDCorollaWagon!
