Always Reliable and Comfortable.

A brand I like to stay with because of safety features and looks. Also there are lots of time saving programs that keeps your eyes on the road. A smart car..

Toyota Corolla

I've had the car for about a month now and absolutely love it. There are so many really cool features. I especially like the Bluetooth feature that automatically syncs to my phone when I get into the car. Also, the USB port allows me to have all of my MP3s available at my fingertips. I am still learning all of the features! I would recommend this car to anyone looking to get great gas mileage and have many of the cool features of a high end car.

feels good to own it

Pros- It's really easy to drive. The steering wheel is a great slave and it feels very natural maneuvering the car with the steering. The mileage is pretty great. I filled $10 worth of gas and drove from clear lake to college station (130 miles) and the gas tank reading after the ride was right where it was before filling. It looks much better than the older corollas; pretty aggressive, more aristocratic and overall sportier, especially in slate color. Cons- The acceleration is slow when starting from rest, for example at a traffic light, and you have to press on the accelerator harder to match the traffic flow. But this could be because I drive in the economy mode. On the highway, at speeds over 70mph, if the roads are curvy, it tends to wobble and vibrate a bit.

Economical, reliable and comfortable car

Time and again, Toyota never failed us. This car is very economical, sturdy, and reliable. I love the easy steering, looks very compact from the outside, yet roomy from the inside. It's very easy to drive and practical on gas consumption. The very best of our overall experience was brought by our sales agent, Yvonne Dibenedetto. Best car experience so far.

Great car for the money

Can't go wrong. More car than the older corollas, drives like a more expensive or bigger car, yet has the advantages of a compact model.

Mostly good....

The '14 model has many, many features that come standard--almost too many. I had no desire to have a backup camera, climate control, bluetooth, etc. etc. but that's okay. There are, however, a few of things I have already found I do NOT like about this model: 1. The speedometer is difficult to read. Not every 10 miles are marked. Not sure why they skimped on that! 2. The bar to grasp to move the seat forward and back is too far recessed or something. I nearly throw my back out every time I reach under the seat for it to pull my seat forward. 3. The clock is at an odd angle or something, making it difficult for the driver (me) to read. 4. Climate control: Too fiddly! Seemed like it would be simple, but I'm constantly having to fiddle with it. Also, it appears that if I direct the airflow toward the windshield, it automatically switches over to heat mode. Sometimes I just want fresh air circulating that way, not necessarily heat. 5. No valet key. The trunk can be accessed from inside the car, and there is no way to prevent this. This means if I ever have valet parking I'd better be sure not to leave anything in my trunk. On the previous model the releases for the back seat were in the trunk, and there was a valet key that locked the trunk so the lid could not be released from inside the car.

First and last Toyota car :(

I bought a brand new 2014 Toyota Crolla a month ago. I had to take the car to service center 3 times in 7 days from buying the car. Due to the poor Quality checks in the factory, my car wheels were not aligned, the steering wheel was not centered, air conditioner was not functioning properly, the breaks were not functioning properly. I talked to the customer care center in Toronto and the only answer I got was "The car is warrantied, take it to the service center". Despite it's beautiful interior and exterior design, this car is not designed for roads. You can feel the car is not stable when you are tailgating a car. things get worse when you drive behind a bus or a truck. car starts to shake like you are driving on a street with lots of puddles. Even you feel the same when a car passes you. I can say the worst aerodynamic design goes to this car. Another frustrating thing about this car is that there is no sound proofing applied on the car. You hear hear anything happens to to tires and rear passengers can not hear what the driver is talking about. fuel consumption on highway is close to 6 litters/100KM and it is not as what is advertised unless you drive 80 km/hour on highways(do we have any kind of highway with 80km/h speed limit?) I can say if you need a car for city and short distance trips, buy this car. but if you want to travel a lot or your office is far away from your home, never buy this car.

Happy, happy, happy

After much research we decided to remain loyal to Toyota Corolla. We were driving a 1991, 175,000 miles Corolla. I so appreciated its reliability, I wanted to stay brand loyal, and reward good behavior. Have had our new 2014 Toyota Corolla since last Thurday, July 17 and couldn't be happier. Loving discovering all tne new features this one has over the 1991. Lots of bells and whistles the old one didn't have, just a tad bit more technology. LOL. Don't need all of them, but must say I am enjoying them all. Thank you for continuing to make such a reliable, luxurious common person's car. Driving is sooooo much fun. Sincerely, Connie Verbeck A Very Happy Camper.

Greatest economy car !

Smooth and composed ride, quiet (altough road noise still need some work since mechanical noises are very well muted). Confortable seats and loads of space. Very well equiped for the price (steering wheel controls, voice control, usb, bluethoot... and real knobs !). Real LED headlights - not just decorative strip band like so many others are white and crisps. Little "plasticy" on the inside but well put together, ergonomically designed and (arguably) elegant. And soooo economical at the pump (LE ECo always give or beat the 30/42 EPA estimate - how many manufacturers can say that ?). Competitors might be fancier or sportier but all cost more. Toyota did wonder with this package (LE Eco)

OH YEAH!

I just leased the 2014 Corolla S, and I LOVE IT!!! I like a car that has few blind spots, and doesn't make me feel cramped. It handles so well, and feels so nice to be in. Cannot wait to start turning heads in this car! Absolutely worth every penny! Seriously considering buying it at the end of the lease! If you are wavering, just go for a test drive. Even the lower classes are nice!
