       Toyota Corolla 2019 US spec

 Reliability with affordability are two words that comes to mind while hearing the name Toyota; Toyota Corolla since its debut in 1966 till 2019 has gone 11 generations and even more facelifts during this long legacy of 53 years. Currently Toyota Corolla 2019 is in its 11th gen which was launched in 2014. The 11th gen followed a facelift in year 2017 after which it has been going so till 2019, although Toyota has plans for newer model of Corolla in 2020, but we’ll see about that.

Toyota Corolla 2019 falls under the subcompact sedan category being one of most affordable yet reliable car in the market. Since it is a ‘Toyota’ it pretty much sells for being tough, rigid and easy to be maintained which is what a normal buyer desires in a daily driver. Anyways apart from being a Corolla it has some goodies to offer in as well.

Toyota Corolla stands out overall rating of 8.5/10 from various critics and automotive journalists. It stands somewhere at #10 in subcompact vehicle category. This has to with the sluggish performance since the other competitors in the league offer more power from the wheels as compared to the Toyota Corolla 2019.  However in terms of overall ride quality, styling and comfort it gets the job done just fine enough like others, Although the Toyota Corolla 2019 is supposed to be a sedan, however in 2019 Toyota has also blessed the US market with European Spec Corolla in form of Hatchback. In other words the Toyota decided to give a touch of its European inventory in the States.

Good & Bad about Toyota Corolla 2019:

There is quite much the good and pros only when it comes to Toyota Corolla 2019, since you can’t complain much. The sedan model offers a room full of space for the passengers which are a great gesture in subcompact vehicle. The safety features standards in the Toyota Corolla 2019 are again remarkably good for a safe trip. In addition to these the Toyota Corolla offers super excellent mileage on the road as well. However the most key-worthy feature is the top-notch certified reliability that the name ‘Corolla’ under Toyota clearly indicates.

The downside of Toyota Corolla 2019 is a short list of features that are common in every such low-range affordable sedans. First one is the undersized cargo space in the trunk at the back of car. However with spacious room in the interior I think it’s fair enough to compromise. Next one on con list is lots of plastic embellishing the interior, making it a non-premium rather boring look. Last but not least is the sluggish throttle response with slow acceleration what makes the drive boring especially on the highways.

Engine & Performance:

As for the US market, the minimum engine offered is the 1.8L four-cylinder engine. This spins out 132 horses turning the wheels at 128 pound-feet of torque. Toyota Corolla 2019 comes with FWD (front-wheel-drive) drive train and a CVT transmission. Since the Hp numbers are low even for this league it makes the drive to snooze through it.

Verdict:

Toyota Corolla 2019 is a good choice if you are a normal person who needs a daily ride. However it is a bit slower and less premium from the inside as compared to its competitors Mazda 3, Honda Civic and KIA forte. However it’s reliable and cheaper to maintain.
