Toyota Corolla 2020 in-depth review | carwow Reviews

This is the new Toyota Corolla! It’s fair to say previous generations of the Corolla (or Auris, as it used to be called) were known for being good value for money, but relatively dull. However, it seems Toyota is looking to put that reputation to bed with the all-new Corolla! But does the interior and drivability match up to the exciting new exterior style, especially when you consider it costs slightly more than a VW Golf or Ford Focus?

[@Torresmeza9]

They’ve been killing it since 1937 wym??

[@gravemind6536]

Toyota have been killing it since the moment they started selling outside of Asia. Their reputation for reliablity isn't just fan boy talk. They have been causing problems for American and European car makers since the 70s along with Honda. Toyota got a lot of good press too from the invincible Hilux from Top Gear they even used it as a model name in their newer versions. Toyota also has Scotty Kilmer bigging them up you won't find a mechanic who doesn't say Toyota and Honda are reliable and they are loved by Taxi drivers in the UK. Its all for a reason and its because Toyota are the kings of reliability. Even the hot headed boy racers loved the Toyota Supra and MR2 not because it was superior stock because many cars matched and beat them stock but because they could handle remaps and tuning far better than other cars and would reliabiliy go far beyond what they were intended for. Toyota have been killing it since before half the world was even born.

[@theytwatcher950]

[@user-gl2gk9xc3x]

No, bullshit. Any other car is not worse, even better. For example, Honda Civic is much better than corolla and it is cheaper and has at least not worse reliability.

[@odeiraoloap]

But they really feel like years behind competitors (look at the external cameras; there are flip phones from a decade ago with better quality video!) in terms of material quality and technology (you CAN put in up-to-date technology and give it Toyota-grade reliability, shocking!) It's even worse with the Land Cruiser which hasn't been updated for the last two decades and is way more expensive than a modern G Class!

Absolutely true! I've been in doubt between those two for weeks, until I finally chose the driving comfort of the Corolla (Hybrid automatic) over the more beautiful looks and sporty driving of the Mazda 3. (Mazda 3 Automatic would've been best, but it was way more expensive because of it...)

Yes, both of them look great and are reliable, but I am a bit let down by the performance of those cars. 0-60 mph in just under 11 sec. is just not that great. For the same price you can get the new Honda Civic 1.5 with 182 hp and way more room in the trunk.

Nice Max As the owner of a 1998 Toyota Hilux with well over half a million miles, I can tell you that Toyota cars (in my opinion) are the most reliable cars. A new clutch was one of the only things that had to be replaced and it didn’t have an easy life either, working on a farm in Ireland. Many German “premium” cars have come and gone at our place but the hilux remains. They’ll start every morning in any weather with one turn of the key

[@nicemax9310]

@@jameshayden6631 Tesla is more reliable, it can go to 1,5 million km's, easily. Electric is the future. And just because your toyota has 1/3 of the parts that german premium cars have, doesnt mean its good. With more parts, you need to do good maintence.

@@theodorev666 Damn ugly in comparison and more expensive 🤣

[@theodorev666]

@@si4632 I disagree entirely. The ceed looks much more distinguished with better feeling materials on the inside. But that's not an argument because looks are subjective. In Greece, an Astra is more expensive to buy than a Ceed. Maybe it differs where you're from. But even if you get a good deal on one, and it turns out to be cheaper than a KIA, Opels are considered notoriously unrielable over here. So again, a Ceed would be much more economical in the long run. Especially if you consider the 7 year warranty. I had a KIA for 7+years and the warranty covered absolutely everything. I only had to pay for servicing the car (again, much cheaper than Opel) and for new tires.

Great review and on the strength of this I bought an Icon Tech Corolla two weeks ago (with the Carwow discount, thank you very much). Generally a very good car. However, there is a fault with the Nearside Front Sensor (it keeps activating even when there is nothing in front of the vehicle). This is irritating at best and dangerously distracting when driving at worst. The battle I'm in now is to get Toyota GB and the Dealership to stop blaming each other for the appalling level of customer service I am now subject to in trying to get this problem resolved on a brand new car. It's enough to make me want to give the car back and revert back to VW. Apparently I cannot do that now though (even though I've had the car for less than 14 days) as I have highlighted the issue and they are "doing their best" to resolve it.

Great video, as always. Thank you. I really like the new Corolla styling (look). I've first seen one on the motorway while passing it and I've literally slowed down for it to catch up with me and have a 2'nd look. I was genuinely surprised when I've seen the Corolla badge. My 1'st ever brand new car was a 2007 Corolla (US) that I really enjoyed for a while. The 2L version sounds tempting and the 50+ mpg economy... wow, really reminds me of a Prius I drove for a bit. As much as I like my 2L automatic diesel BMW for what it is as a package, the 35(ish) mpg isn't at all very pleasing in comparison. Kind regards.

With so many flavours of hybrid cars, two details I would love to hear in reviews: 1. The range in EV mode, if any With charging points at home and/or at work, a car with a useable EV only range; the IC engine can be standby for use only on long journeys out of town. 2. The EV only speeds.

[@MrEq0000]

Toyota's hybrid battery lasts about 2 km-s in the city before IC engine kicks in. It doesn't look like much but charging time is also quite quick (thanks to the size of battery) and soon enough EV mode kicks in again. This review is about hybrid which you can't charge yourself. Not at home, not at work. Only IC engine charges cars battery. This is most common hybrid system used by Toyota. And it works, I have Rav4, and average consumption is 6.8 l/100 km, 100% city driving. Before with CRV average was 11+ l/100 km. For me it's huge difference.

[@IzzyFX007]

Range is like he said 2 km or so. EV only speed is around 40 km/h if put on EV mode. If its on automatic, you can cruise control with 90 km/h on battery only. Fuel economy is around 4.5L/100km (1.8 hybrid)

[@rivorianest]

Now I'd request for a Golf Variant, Focus Estate and Corolla Touring Sports comparison!... Pretty please? :D

[@joseluislopes3956]

I'd like your review on a touring sports 2l hybrid

I was sure about your verdict because for me it's the best in class and it's looks the best in class Well done Toyota

[@fan2lexus]

Ahmad Abu Sneineh You forgot the new Mazda 3 ! But as a Toyota / Lexus fan, i agree with you too. And the new Honda Civic looks cool too !

[@f4tpie]

It's more expensive than a golf though and that's a far better car

[@aleksandaraleksic4067]

@@f4tpie Golf, better ??? Don't be silly.

[@JanM2]

Why is he silly? That's his opinion. You can't generalize a cars worth. One might see a golf as something extremely good-looking with a great brand image, another might find them boring and hate VW. It's up to you to decide how you view them, just like it's the case with everyone else.

[@dawn-moon]

That new RAV is soooo ugly compared to the previous RAV. The Corolla shines again, but they want to the dark side with the RAV, especially the back...

Nice review, mate. One question: the infotainment screen kind of looks collapsable or detachable. Is it?

[@EpicHotCheese]

I wish Toyota would make a performance TRD or GRMN version to rival the Golf GTi.

[@NathanCelica]

I've read on several articals that they are actually going to do it. (and it WON'T be a hybrid apparently!)

Instant thumbs up. Something that allot of us viewers can afford. Thank you.

[@sonalmalhotra07]

I owned three toyotas and found them reliable. However, I think Honda has an edge in design and ergonomics. Thanks Great review.

[@emgee44]

I saw this at a dealer and it looked rather nice, I was most surprised, I also liked the estate version too and would consider either one if I was I the market for one.

[@tkskater1]

5:50 "Now let's move on to the *Auris'* backseat"... Wow.

[@SeanyHardy]

Yes, I heard that as well lol.

[@Smithy1789]

Me too.

[@jdmguy44]

Very striking looking car. The interior design and quality looks impressive too. Think I might take a closer look at this.

[@greg4442]

Awesome video can you please make a video with the Corolla sedan hybrid

[@mssherlee]

Just bought a black ZR hybrid. And I love ur review ;)

[@menaseven9093]

The Toyota Corolla is a beautiful and well equipped middle class car. I like the two independent suspension in the car back wheels.

[@adnanalagic]

Wow, this hatchback looks really good! If you took off all Toyota-badges from it, you would think by just looking at it that it would be a 'posh' hatchback like and Audi A3. Really cool design!

[@SaberisloveSaberislife]

I like this style of review. Unique and funny from other reviews.

[@justicebroker2271]

In Australia the headlights and indicators are on the correct side for rhd(the right side) so the headlight controls match the dash like lhd versions. Does that take the confusion away now.

[@jackcrowther6756]

Iv been waiting for this video!!! My Corolla is on its way!!!

Can you do a review of the sedan model

I ‘test drove’ one of those and my favourite part of the interior is the seats and the electronic speed display.

Looking forward to winning mine in December this year! That's the only time we will be offering one of these 😉..looks a nice car...much better in the flesh...👍

[@divdo1]

Always amazes me that when comparing to other cars u never mention the newer megane. Bought mine when it was just below 3 years old and have had it two years now. Best car I’ve had. Even mid range u get so much kit. And it looks great. All I’ve had to do is replace the tyres so far. 1.5 diesel, in “sports” mode it has great torque to it.

[@betterbeavailable]

I have the GT and that doesn't get much love either. Blows that dead slow and generic Corolla easily away.
