thorandmoljnir I have one,Good car to practice techniques of driving on. Good in snow (just gotta be twitchy af), handles nicely on dry (trail brake it to get some fun) and a bit understeery in rain (tires fault mostly). I have the CVT and the bad part is the Trans. In D it is dead, tries to rip itself apart on WOT but put it in S mode and it will sing its baby 2ZR heart out 😂😂. Would trade it for a 2018 Civic Si tho. 😆😆
Everything she said is true but she left one thing off. The Corolla is a very low maintenance car and it is probably the reliable and dependable car on the road .
Corolla is the car that makes the statement. I will get you there. Not in style, not expensively. I will always be there for you. Take away the glamour, and you get the soul of why I always loved Toyotas. They just go, and go, and go. We had allot of Toyotas growing up. Only our crap box Corona back in 1969. Will I buy one of these? Heck no. A Civic, or Mazda 3, or others will thrill me more. But I will never bad mouth a Corolla. Ever.
I don't understand why people are saying it lacks power on the highway. I recently bought one and I have no problem picking up speed to merge on the freeway. It picks up speed pretty quickly and it handles turns very smoothly. I've already driven it through some treacherous California highways and I have no complaints. I mean, it obviously isn't a luxury sport car so I don't know why people expect it to be a top-of-the-line super car with 300+ horsepower (this car obviously wasn't made for racing or off-roading lol). What I do know is that it saves you a lot of money on gas and is very smooth, easy to drive, and nice to look at. The speakers on it are pretty great too! Overall, I recommend this car if you want something that will get you from A to B safely and economically.
I agree also I have a 17 Corolla xse and I’ve let my mom drive it and she thinks it feels faster than a Ford Focus 2.0L that she drives and it hugs the road better and it’s more comfortable more space and you can really tell the quality in the Corolla because when you start the focus and drive it you feel the vibration of the motor but you can’t in the Corolla
People always judge the Corolla for things it's not suppose to be. People need to look at Corolla for what it is really suppose to be, which is to be practical, reliable and economical. And it defiantly succeeds. Also, for all you civic fans, I've driven both the new Corolla and Civic Turbo. I actually preferred the Corolla considering the Civic is slow and unresponsive, has an awful infotainment system, is super low and cramped, and has horrible visibility. All of which are not problems in the Corolla.
If you are not in a hurry to get anywhere, the Corolla is a very solid buy. Roomy, low on price and has a lot of kit for the money. And you can't break it.
The CVT-based powertrain in the 2016/2017 Honda Civic doesn't make those drony/whiney sounds and there's more than enough juice in the midrange for those highway passes. Comparatively, Toyota's CVTs are primitive.
I own a 2016 Corolla S Premium with sunroof and navigation system. Car is worth the money. It's also far from boring, put it in "sport mode" and it kicks in. I'd rather have a reliable and safe car than anything else. I used to own a 2006 Corolla with over 150,000 miles while in college. It took me to school and back without any problems,highly recommend it.
ELPJM09 I had an 06 Corolla an I totaled it I cried so hard that has been my favorite body style Toyota ever made I just bought a 17 Corolla an love it not as much as my 06 I had 88,000 when I totaled it never had a single problem great first car
The only people hating on this car are the ones with no valid proof of why it’s a bad car, just haters. The Corolla will take you wherever life does for many years, without problems. It’s a sleek and stylish car that has cues from Lexus. It’s roomy and has tons of safety features.
I drive a 1998 Corolla. It was made in Canada in November 1997. It has 232,000 miles on it. It needed some suspension work, its on its 3rd battery, and i just replaced the alternator about 2 months ago. It runs and drives great. I commute about 50 miles a day. The car gets about 34mpg highway. Corolla is the best car. They last and last.
ErwinSchrodinger64 The LED headlights are very sleek and nice. Also very bright at night. They look like they came off a Lexus. The LED daytime running lights strips are nice too. I own a 2018 Corolla SE and love it.
I just got a 2017 Toyota Corolla for the first time on my own dime and I’m 21 years old. My old car (which was a gift from my dad) always gave me so much trouble like I’ve spent over 3k on a shitty Ford Fiesta. It got me places but it also put me in so much danger where at one point I was stranded in a middle of a highway!! I’m very grateful for this vehicle!!!
@@bankskwaku8931 oh man my Corolla really made me feel so safe it’s awesome. So I’m used to my old car where it was swaying side to side in the rain. What a crazy game changer that the car that I have now doesn’t do that.
tinleo333 to clarify, I can't stand Toyotas, I fall asleep driving them... but i respect them for what they are, and I recommend them to people who don't care about driving dynamics :)
tristananvilcaster I’ve been told the same thing with my 2018 Corolla SE. It looks and feels premium. Doesn’t feel or look cheap compared to other cars in its class.
I have had nothing but Toyota products because of my first used 1996 Toyota Corolla, that was sold to me with 135k miles and I went on to keep it for 6 more years and sold it with 287k miles. I commuted 2 hours a day the entire time and my car would not die. Hardly had any maintenance and I was convinced that this was the best car a person could have. After that i purchased a Scion TC that was excellent, then after that a brand new Lexus ES350h and 8 years after that a brand new 2020 Lexus RX 450h. Toyota's are one of the BEST cars regarding reliability on the roads today!
I’ve personally owned three corollas. A 2009, 2016 and a now a 2017. I decided with the market right now I get the Toyota Safety sense and the radar cruise control. I have absolutely zero problems on my 2016 Corolla and drove the hell out of it. It always starts, it’s great on gas, the back seat is a good size, the trunks pretty big for a compact car. I have the SE so my seats feel really high quality with the softex leather seats. There’s a ton of cup holders and bottle! Yeah it doesn’t have a ton of power, you just have to how to drive the car and it will scoot. It’s a good car!
I recently upgraded to a 2017 SE in white. I love it! I just wish the ride was more quiet. My 2001 Camry made WAYYYY less road noise at highway speeds.
I had one of these as a rental for about 11 days recently. For my daily commute, I drive a Lexus IS, so of course the Corolla's handling was not impressive. However, it rode and handled just as well as I expected, and honestly, the interior was better-looking than I might have guessed it would be. The infotainment was also pretty easy to use. Gas mileage was decent at about 30 MPG combined city and highway driving when I gave the car back to Hertz. The only real complaints for me were lack of power on the highway and some noticeable creaks when hitting rougher roads. Overall, it actually was pretty nice to drive, and I might recommend it for someone who just wants to commute and get decent gas mileage (if they don't care about driving fun or acceleration times).
Ramon Taveras they probably don't want to. they've been at it for years and still Corolla outsells the civic. there's gotta be a reason..a formula if you will that toyota has down right..they ain't touching that shit. 😆
Hello Jodi. Great review. I like how you put those 'haters' in check about the 2017 Corolla. I personally just purchased the SE trim about 6 weeks ago, and I couldn't be happier. With all the newest 'bells & whistles' Toyota has done a superb job with this vehicle. I live in Los Angeles (fortunate for me I don't have a long commute each day) so the drive to and from work is a breeze. This car has features that are very intuitive and very comfortable when on the highway. I would agree that the response of the engine could be a bit quicker, but what an affordable product. Thanks for your excellent review. Daniel
The Corolla and the Civic are very solid vehicles. I have had 1 Corolla and 4 Civics. I test drove the new Civic and was really impressed, specially the 1.5 turbo engine. I ended up getting a VW Golf Worlfsburg. For my taste, it looks nicer and more mature. I feel the body style of the Civic is geared more towards a younger generation and I was not sure how its style would look 10-15 years from now. It was a matter of preference for me. Not bashing the Civic. I had good experiences in them. The Corolla? very good car, but very uninspiring and completely gutless with no passing power on the highway, like Jodi said. Plus, and most importantly for me, no hatchback availability which was what I was looking for. The Golf might look small, but the versatility of the hatchback is great. Anyways, great review. Thank you AutoGuide and Jodi.
Put manual transmission in it and get rid of the center console divider to improve knee room, and it will be just fine, like the Corollas of yore (owned two).
The worst drivers are minivan drivers. Not only do they drive slow, they often clog up the left lane and also wander in and out of their lane cuz they're too busy yelling at their kids.
I have a 2015 Corolla S, Rear Disk Brakes are an option, and is a must have option. Also, In ECO mode, which is the standard mode, the transmission is rubber bandy, but if you put the sport mode button, what the car does is change the CVT ratios to match a traditional 6 speed auto and takes away that rubberband feeling. I get about 38MPG average, since most of my driving is highway.
Toyota's may be boring, but they are reliable and get good fuel economy. Yes, the underbody is old. But this car is the only one that has all those safety features standard. Other models like the Civic they are optional
Unfortunantly, most teenagers wreck their first car very quickly. This means asking your parents for a used car and excellent driving lessons may make more financial sense, especially if you fix the car yourself. Chrysler 200s. and jeep Cherokees loose value quickly enough while being easy enough to fix to make this work. Why buy a wonderful new car if statistically, you being a teenager, will most likely total it in 24 months anyways.
It's unresponsive on the highway because you're allowing the AI to drive the car for you ala automatic transmission. I'm sure a manual transmission could do a "little" better.
Yeah but many cars of the same category only have 105-120HP. So 132HP is not so bad, especially for driving in town. 2019 Nissan Vesta has 109HP, 2019 Ford Fiesta has 120HP... The Toyota Corolla is perfect for driving in town I think.
My Father Own a 2016 Corolla S and its a pretty good car for the money, its good depends on your needs, I personally Own a 2014 Mitsubishi Lancer GT, A lot of features & more power plus better Warranty! still both cars are Great!
Toyota more than any other automakers is the reason GM and Ford struggling so badly. They no who they are they pick categories and make just one car for that category, killing off cars that are not excelling and bringing in newer models for those same categories. While GM stupidly competes against itself, making several car in the same category.
If it was a 2016 model I would not even put the Corolla in the top 5 compact cars however 2017 with standard Toyota safety sense with emergency braking, lane departure warning and radar cruise control starting at 18,500 is the best package available. However if you want to go over 21,000 I would choose an Impreza, Civic, or 3 over the slow engine or and unimpressive infotainment
Corolla not like before .I have Toyota 2017 XLE transmission in 39k sound like grinding or a chain spinning inside and the car not responding quickly, 52k got replaced by Toyota.
Sounds like the current Corolla is not at the top of the class anymore. I've always had a problem with Toyota interior quality. Cheap looking plastics and horrid seats that make my lower back cramp up. There are much more pleasant and livable competitors out there.
the only thing i dont like about the car is that when you give it gas it sounds loud and terrible. i think its a combination of both the engine and transmission. i will say though that it feels quicker with the cvt than the last generation did with the 4 speed auto. its leeps and bounds better than the last corolla. sit in one and see how much rear legroom it has . it has 41.4 inches of legroom. a mazda 3 has 35.8, a ford focus has 33.2, elantra at 35.7, 37.4 for the sentra. a vw passat only has 39.1 inches legroom . even the big brother camry has 38.9 legroom.

I have a 2015 corolla and it is a solid car, reliable, fuel economy is great and it takes you to pount A to point B but I do have to agree that it is a boring car I just wish that it has the same power as a civic
I have a 2016 corolla. Only thing that really runs it... CVT. drives me nuts and cant wait to trade it in. I regret not getting it with the 6 speed manual. I think its goes decent on the highway. a lot better then in the city cause the CVT does terrible for acceleration. I have the S model so it does have all wheel disc brakes.
Most reliable car (toyota/lexus) on the road, great city car! Why drive your Mustang or whatever on crappy days,winter driving, parking lots? Everyone should have a puddle jumper
The 3, Elantra, (sport ), and Civic rule this class ....Corolla is not in the same league as these three. Maybe they will be if they drop a 2 litre turbo, or just drop a bigger engine in there. Also give styling similar to the new Camry coming out this year.
good video.....but the car sucks because of the over sensitive steering feel. making it horrible when talking about handling . electric steering is not properly calibrated
sylwia ryzak scion iA is a rebadged Mazda2 (Mazda engine and transmission and interior design). So it's much smaller than a corolla and more fun to drive. It all depends on what you'll be using the car for.
Ugh I used to not even care about Corollas till I moved to Central Florida, now I see them everywhere!!! On top of that, they are in fact horrible drivers, blocking turn lanes, cutting across 3 lanes of traffic because they missed their turns...you get the idea. I suddenly hate what basically is a decent car because of the people who buy them!
I have a 2010 that I have since new and I can't seem to buy the new corolla cause damn...just look at that grill. Wtf Toyota. Make something decent looking that won't scare the children when I am driving around my suburb.
Now Corollas have been a very reliable car over the years but drum brakes on a 17 model. ComeOnnnn Toyota get with the times and stop trying to squeeze our wallets.
Kia is ranked number 6 in reliability and Hyundai is just behind Kia according to Consumer Reports reliability survey which is far better than Honda and they'll have ten year warranties so I'm pretty sure they're not gonna break down in four years.
As someone who works on cars for a living, Kia-Hyundai are one of the most reliable brands out there in the market. That's why they offer a product confident 7 year warranty on their products - NO OTHER BRAND has the balls to stand behind their products like that for good reason.
Ben Stern my granny has a Civic ., I don't know why ppl think this would be a grandmother car my college friends have one the le and the s corolla nice
![อยู่คนเดียวกับเขา - ส้ม มารี (Zom Marie) [Official MV]](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/gq1cWAIQDLg/mqdefault.jpg)
I'm pretty sure people who buy these are just happy to know it will still be driving fine in about 25 years. Not a bad reason to buy one.

Corolla is the car that makes the statement. I will get you there. Not in style, not expensively. I will always be there for you. Take away the glamour, and you get the soul of why I always loved Toyotas. They just go, and go, and go. We had allot of Toyotas growing up. Only our crap box Corona back in 1969.

I don't understand why people are saying it lacks power on the highway. I recently bought one and I have no problem picking up speed to merge on the freeway.

Props to Toyota for still selling an AFFORDABLE compact! Cars have become so OVERPRICED
Agree
If you are not in a hurry to get anywhere, the Corolla is a very solid buy. Roomy, low on price and has a lot of kit for the money. And you can't break it.
Amen, brother! Definitely not an exciting car, but it doesn't need to be!
The 3 isn't half as reliable as the Corolla. Calling the Corolla garbage is pretty ignorant on your part. So thanks for the ignorance!
The CVT-based powertrain in the 2016/2017 Honda Civic doesn't make those drony/whiney sounds and there's more than enough juice in the midrange for those highway passes. Comparatively, Toyota's CVTs are primitive.

That jacket makes her look like a lion 🦁.
Who woulda thought with inflation that this car is worth more than it was in this video 😂
By the way, the SE and XSE corollas have disc brakes. L and LE has drum.
It would probably be a lot more fun to drive with a manual trans versus that CVT.
yes it is
Thank you for embracing you Canadians roots by putting the Canadian prices and fuel economy!

I'm not a Corolla hater, but how do you figure the interior of these are much better than the Cruze? The whole dash design of the Cruze is way better.
The materials in the Corolla are much better/less cheap looking than what's found in the Cruze.
Also, the corolla doesn't have a higher performance engine, such as Hondas turbo engine, as well as the Jettas.

This means asking your parents for a used car and excellent driving lessons may make more financial sense, especially if you fix the car yourself. Chrysler 200s. and jeep Cherokees loose value quickly enough while being easy enough to fix to make this work. Why buy a wonderful new car if statistically, you being a teenager, will most likely total it in 24 months anyways.
What's up with the front grill? It Looks like it could shovel snow.
Lmao
It's unresponsive on the highway because you're allowing the AI to drive the car for you ala automatic transmission. I'm sure a manual transmission could do a "little" better.
Yeah but many cars of the same category only have 105-120HP. So 132HP is not so bad, especially for driving in town. 2019 Nissan Vesta has 109HP, 2019 Ford Fiesta has 120HP... The Toyota Corolla is perfect for driving in town I think.
I love when people say the Corolla is just an appliance, like they never buy appliances for their house.
My Father Own a 2016 Corolla S and its a pretty good car for the money, its good depends on your needs, I personally Own a 2014 Mitsubishi Lancer GT, A lot of features & more power plus better Warranty! still both cars are Great!
Thank god it has those active safety features standard now. Maybe now there will be less Corolla driver accidents!
Toyota more than any other automakers is the reason GM and Ford struggling so badly. They no who they are they pick categories and make just one car for that category, killing off cars that are not excelling and bringing in newer models for those same categories. While GM stupidly competes against itself, making several car in the same category.
Same rear suspension axle beam, from Fred Flintstones? Elantra Sport with manual and multilink independent rear suspension.
its a great 1st car sounds like
What's the color name?
If it was a 2016 model I would not even put the Corolla in the top 5 compact cars however 2017 with standard Toyota safety sense with emergency braking, lane departure warning and radar cruise control starting at 18,500 is the best package available. However if you want to go over 21,000 I would choose an Impreza, Civic, or 3 over the slow engine or and unimpressive infotainment
Can you guys please do a review on the Nissan Sentra!!!!
Hey! Stop talking about my parents! But tbh my mom can barely park her big Range Rover! But the 360 camera helps
LED headlights have been standard for the LE trim and above for 11th gen.
Don't know about everyone else, but I don't want a boring drive to work everyday.
The 2017 Toyota Corolla and Honda Civic gets everything new but the only thing that won't change for a Japanese car is the CVT gearbox
I love this car man
Corolla not like before .I have Toyota 2017 XLE transmission in 39k sound like grinding or a chain spinning inside and the car not responding quickly, 52k got replaced by Toyota.
You can’t go wrong with Toyota ! Period !
I don't hate on the Toyota Corolla, but the dashboard sit up high reminds of cars in 70s or 80s
Is the version that you used in this the XSE?
Sounds like the current Corolla is not at the top of the class anymore. I've always had a problem with Toyota interior quality. Cheap looking plastics and horrid seats that make my lower back cramp up. There are much more pleasant and livable competitors out there.
I drove the Honda Civic there to low to the ground and have a lot of blind spots il take carolla all day
the only thing i dont like about the car is that when you give it gas it sounds loud and terrible. i think its a combination of both the engine and transmission. i will say though that it feels quicker with the cvt than the last generation did with the 4 speed auto. its leeps and bounds better than the last corolla. sit in one and see how much rear legroom it has . it has 41.4 inches of legroom. a mazda 3 has 35.8, a ford focus has 33.2, elantra at 35.7, 37.4 for the sentra. a vw passat only has 39.1 inches legroom . even the big brother camry has 38.9 legroom.

I just purchased used one but I feel it's steering wheel is hard while turning!!
I have absolutely no problem passing on the highway
I have a 2015 corolla and it is a solid car, reliable, fuel economy is great and it takes you to pount A to point B but I do have to agree that it is a boring car I just wish that it has the same power as a civic
I have a 2016 corolla. Only thing that really runs it... CVT. drives me nuts and cant wait to trade it in. I regret not getting it with the 6 speed manual. I think its goes decent on the highway. a lot better then in the city cause the CVT does terrible for acceleration. I have the S model so it does have all wheel disc brakes.
Most reliable car (toyota/lexus) on the road, great city car! Why drive your Mustang or whatever on crappy days,winter driving, parking lots? Everyone should have a puddle jumper
The 3, Elantra, (sport ), and Civic rule this class ....Corolla is not in the same league as these three. Maybe they will be if they drop a 2 litre turbo, or just drop a bigger engine in there. Also give styling similar to the new Camry coming out this year.
I’m sad because I’m a honda owner and I feel like switching now
Do you have a civic?
Interior looks nice but needs a complete redo asap!
Does she come with the car? ;)
good video.....but the car sucks because of the over sensitive steering feel. making it horrible when talking about handling .
electric steering is not properly calibrated
Is corolla better than scion IA?
sylwia ryzak scion iA is a rebadged Mazda2 (Mazda engine and transmission and interior design). So it's much smaller than a corolla and more fun to drive. It all depends on what you'll be using the car for.
thank you just for work.
Cool outro
Ugh I used to not even care about Corollas till I moved to Central Florida, now I see them everywhere!!! On top of that, they are in fact horrible drivers, blocking turn lanes, cutting across 3 lanes of traffic because they missed their turns...you get the idea. I suddenly hate what basically is a decent car because of the people who buy them!
you got the pricing backwards it more money in canada dollars
If it were my money in this segment, I'd get the Mazda3 or Elantra sport
NormileGuy yuck
Blue Post it notes 👍😏
I have a 2010 that I have since new and I can't seem to buy the new corolla cause damn...just look at that grill. Wtf Toyota. Make something decent looking that won't scare the children when I am driving around my suburb.
I think you guys switched the $USD amount with $CAD in the spec list
Looking to buy my third one. Don’t want anything else 😄
I've spent years making fun of this car and now i actually really really really want this new Corolla.
Now Corollas have been a very reliable car over the years but drum brakes on a 17 model. ComeOnnnn Toyota get with the times and stop trying to squeeze our wallets.
Would much rather get an Elantra or Forte....
azera55555 Good luck with it in 4 years when it breaks down on you
Blue Post it notes 10 year warranty 🙂
Kia is ranked number 6 in reliability and Hyundai is just behind Kia according to Consumer Reports reliability survey which is far better than Honda and they'll have ten year warranties so I'm pretty sure they're not gonna break down in four years.
Blue Post it notes I have a 2013 Hyundai sante fe sport and it hasn't given me issues at all
As someone who works on cars for a living, Kia-Hyundai are one of the most reliable brands out there in the market. That's why they offer a product confident 7 year warranty on their products - NO OTHER BRAND has the balls to stand behind their products like that for good reason.
We will be there for this great car
The Corolla is a reliable, comfortable car. Perfect for your mom Jodi. I see you as an MX-5 owner.
Ben Stern my granny has a Civic ., I don't know why ppl think this would be a grandmother car my college friends have one the le and the s corolla nice
