The 2024 Toyota Corolla sets a new standard in the compact sedan segment, showcasing an enviable balance of performance, design, comfort, technology, safety, and efficiency. This year, Toyota has elevated the Corolla experience by upgrading the Toyota Multimedia system in the L, LE, and LE Upgrade models, enhancing connectivity and ensuring that more Canadians can stay connected while on the move.
Stylistically, the 2024 Corolla exudes dynamism and athleticism. Its design, characterized by perfectly proportioned curves and a grounded stance, reflects a low centre of gravity and readiness for action. The Corolla's honeycomb grille, J-shaped bi-beam LED headlamps, and wheels set at the corners convey a sense of power and performance. The L line models exhibit classic elegance, while the S line versions express a sportier demeanour with larger wheels, a wider grille, dual-tip exhaust, and a rear lip spoiler, emphasizing the Corolla's fun and energetic character.
Inside, the Corolla's cabin is a haven of comfort and convenience, designed with the driver in mind. It accommodates five adults comfortably, with an instrument panel that enhances the driver's field of vision. The use of soft-touch controls and premium materials throughout elevates the overall sense of sophistication and style.
Technologically, the Corolla is at the forefront, featuring the intuitive Toyota Multimedia system as standard across all models. This system, which integrates wirelessly with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, boasts Toyota's newest interface, enhancing interaction through sight, touch, and voice. The system's touchscreen functionality mirrors that of a mobile phone, offering a familiar and user-friendly experience.
Toyota Canada has further enhanced the Corolla's appeal for 2024 by expanding the range of connected services available in the L, LE, and LE Upgrade models. The L and LE grades now include Safety Connect and Service Connect, while the LE Upgrade, SE, and SE Upgrade trim levels add Remote Connect. The top-tier XSE grade also features Drive Connect, offering an even more comprehensive suite of connectivity options.
Under the hood, the Corolla offers two impressive powertrain options. The gas-powered models feature a 2.0L inline four-cylinder engine with a Direct Shift CVT and front-wheel drive, delivering 169 horsepower and up to 151 lb-ft of torque. On the other hand, the Corolla Hybrid models utilize Toyota's renowned hybrid technology, comprising a 1.8L Atkinson Cycle engine, an electronically-controlled CVT, and a high-torque electric motor-generator system. This setup produces 138 system horsepower while achieving exceptional fuel efficiency as low as 4.4L/100km city/highway combined. Uniquely, the Corolla Hybrid is the only compact hybrid passenger car available with all-wheel drive, featuring Toyota's electronic on-demand AWD system for added confidence in various driving conditions.
The new Corolla, built on the revolutionary Toyota New Global Architecture (TNGA) platform, benefits from sleek styling, a low centre of gravity, and enhanced stability with reduced noise and vibration. Toyota engineers have fine-tuned the body structure, suspensions, and active cornering assist technologies to deliver agility and stability without compromising comfort. The S line models feature specially-tuned suspensions, offering a more connected road feel while maintaining ride comfort. This is just the start of what sets the new Corolla apart.
