2022 Toyota Corolla review: Our expert's take

What Is the 2022 Toyota Corolla?

The compact Toyota Corolla is offered in sedan and four-door hatchback form and seats five. It’s powered by a standard 139-horsepower, 1.8-liter four-cylinder engine that pairs with a continuously variable automatic transmission or a 169-hp, 2.0-liter four-cylinder that works with a CVT or a six-speed manual transmission. A hybrid drivetrain is also offered, and the Corolla Hybrid is EPA-rated 52 mpg combined. Front-wheel drive is standard.

Corolla competitors include the Honda Civic, Nissan Sentra and Mazda3. The Corolla sedan offers 19.1 cubic feet of truck space, according to Cars.com’s cargo measurements.

Should I Buy the 2022 Toyota Corolla?

Already a solid choice among compact sedans, a 2020 redesign of the sedan brought big improvements to the Corolla, including improved fuel economy, better ride and handling and a nicer interior. A long list of standard safety features and an easy-to-use multimedia system add to the Corolla’s appeal. The four-cylinder engines are noisy, however, and there’s not a lot of storage space in the cabin.

Auto Lock system is trash.

First of all, Toyota can eat dirt for having an unintelligent auto lock system. It locked itself when my keys were on the floor. I got out of the car, closed the door, realized I didn’t have my keys and instantly dreaded when I heard a beep. Secondly, the USB port is in a horrendous spot, it’s almost like they forgot to include one until they slapped the whole thing together.

Good car but some "features" I do not like

Leasing this car. Expected to wait a couple of months but received a notification that a car matching my specifications would be available the next week. The car met most of my requirements. The price of the lease was considerably more than I expected to pay but I agreed to the terms. Two months after taking possession of the vehicle, the brake actuator failed and I lost use of the vehicle for two weeks. Of course, the repair of the brake actuator was under warranty! The miles per gallon are what I have come to expect from a Toyota Corolla - better than 40 mpg on the freeway, a little less on surface streets. I replaced the standard interior rear view mirror with the one that has a built in Universal garage door opener because there was not a convenient place to mount the garage door opener that I had used with two previous Toyota Corolla leases. The thing I like about this 2022 Toyota Corolla: good gas mileage, bright headlights, good interior space. Things I do not like: cheap plastic rear trunk wing that broke in drive through car wash, black out lettering that standout on the greyish body color, unlit driver side lock/unlock buttons that are hard to locate in the dark when getting out of the car.

5.0

Good and safe car.

Good driving car with many safety features. This is not a car for big people. The lady who is driving it loved the car and is excited about owning it and having it forany years.
