Nice review from a dealership from my hometown of San Jose, CA. This car is basic but fits the needs of anyone who does not need all the more expensive options of the more expensive Corolla models and does not want to buy the optional packages listed for this model. (One note about this car is that some people have complained online about the trunk not being able to close easily. One person also mentioned that it is best to close the trunk by grabbing it above the license plate and not from the top of the trunk which could cause some dings in time on the thin sheet metal of the trunk. Good advice but not sure why Toyota did not make the trunk close much easier like the trunk of my 1998 Camry that I still have after over 25 years and just 141K miles. Yah, these Toyotas DO last a long time with proper care and not driving recklessly.) ☺
@@ceoanimeeditz Thank you for the compliment and I try to take care of my cars. But to be honest, I retired almost 17 years ago at the age of 53 1/2 and no longer had to do long drives anymore for work. Thus, less miles on the car. My 1998 Camry LE does have an oil leak from somewhere in the engine but does not burn oil which is good. But to fix this issue would cost much more than what the car is worth. I am 70 and have had only FOUR cars: two used and two new. I bought this Camry new in October of 1997 and it is the BEST and most reliable car I have ever owned! But yes, the day is coming when I will have to get another car once new and used car prices go down a bit.
I'm a big fan of the Corolla LE. Considering how long they last it's a lot of bang for little buck. I drove one for 8 years before buying our new 2023 RAV4. We still have our Corolla LE as our 2nd family car.
@@ladye2818 its funny because how reliable that car is you never know wish i didnt live where my corolla is starting to fall apart from rust after 20 years
I'm picking up our 2023 LE this Friday evening. Same color and similarly equipped. Really looking forward to it. We waited months for it to come. We also worked out a deal of $805.66 under msrp and a 7.49% 72- month loan through Toyota with $2,000 down. A great deal imo in current financial market. Our old Corolla was bought new in 2007. It has 295k on it and runs fine. It is just rusting underneath in several areas, one by the frame. PA winters are bad with all types of chemicals on the road. I am getting the new car undercoatd and get clear front end bra tape to protect from road damage.
I wish they changed the rear-end a little bit. I’m sorry but that’s ugliest design. But I definitely appreciate how Toyota has kept the cost so relatively low, the new Civics are entirely too expensive for a compact car.
Just took delivery of the AWD hybrid version of this vehicle. Very similar to the gas version with some obvious dash control variations. Mine came with the package including the smart key and blind spot warning systems. Hybrid AWD doesn't have the spare tire, nor does it seem to have room for one. The FWD hybrid might take a compact spare in the truck.
Having a spare tire is a must for me for various reasons. I hope you are happy with your new car, Kenneth. I will probably buy a new Corolla LE since the used cars are so overpriced now with high mileage. I would rather pay several thousand more and get a new car.
@@DougCeleste Car tech is advancing so fast that used cars should be worth much less than they are selling for as many are now dinosaurs! It burns me up how much more than MSRP my new car cost, but much of the 'extra' was due to Toyota not including fees and 'standard' extras that you can't leave off today. The dealer prep and transportation fees should be part of the MSRP for example. However they have to make their cars look cheaper in the ad's.
@@KennethScharf You make many good points and thanks for sharing. When I go online to the Toyota website, I see the Corolla LE sedan price starting in the high $21K range. But as you stated, that does NOT Include all the extra fees added at the dealerships. At my local dealership, the selling price was around $2K more with those extra fees that you mentioned. And I have NEVER seen used cars so overpriced in my entire life and I am 69! Anyhow, I am hoping to buy around May-July when hopefully, sales people will want to work with buyers more to make room for the 2024 models coming.
@@DougCeleste Good points from both of you. I'm in the same boat and looking at buying a Corolla LE in Canada where we face identical issues to the USA. If you need a new car soon, bear in mind the wait time for a factory order of a new car might be 4-6 months.
Does the foam piece where a spare tire used to fit raise the middle part of the cargo floor about 2 inches like mine. Odd not to have a flat floor from side to side.
big fan of the corolla, I have always wanted one!! I hope to be able to do that some day, thanks for the detailed review, I enjoyed it very much Michael!!!
i have a corolla cross with 2.0 engine. i use extreme driving style to get 5.0L/100km, which is 47 MPG. i never go over 100km/h, seldom let the engine go over 2500rpm when accelerating and hyper mill when ever possible. so for a corolla, i believe i can get 55MPG if using the same technique.
I own the 2020 Corolla SE well and I'm happy, Toyota just made this easy comfortable driving and reliable. I was looking for the Camry but I got in love with this gorgeous Corolla.
So far less is not more! They removed the vanity driver side light and many other more removals! This is getting ridiculous how much they removed from last year's model.
It's disappointing that Toyota doesn't offer blind spot as standard. Other makes have been offering them for years. Have they fixed the CVT so it's not sluggish from the lights or it makes that dreadful sound when you have to apply the brake so you don't break the speed limit as you are going down a steep hill.
In terms compact cars, BSM and other features like Adaptive Cruise are not standard in all other brands. Elantra gets BSM but not Adaptive Cruise standard. Civic is like the Corolla in terms of BSM as well.
@@MattCC16Gaming What sbout Mazda, Kia, Subaru. I'm just saying Toyota is content in not offering tech because they know they are global brand and don't need to try to hard.
@@Alpha_7227 the Toyota Safety Sense 3.0 feature suite is one of, if not the most, advanced safety systems in the entire class. It’s standard and has a ton of features. The Mazda3 doesn’t have BSM standard, most do though. As for the Subaru Impreza, it’s optional. And the Forte doesn’t get BSM or adaptive cruise standard. You don’t even get LED headlights on Forte till you go to the top trim. So, it’s a trade off of features. Yes, other brands have had BSM for years, but it’s been by no means standard for years, and that notion goes for ALL brands. What you said isn’t totally true, they tend to be conservative in some areas, but their newest infotainment is very feature rich and their newest safety tech is a leader. Plus, their newest ‘advanced park’ self parking system is also very impressive.
@@MattCC16Gaming Just to let you know I am commenting on Toyota Australia which imports their cars from Japan. I visited a local Mazda dealership the other day and you can get all the tech in the base model not in the base model. What Toyota has going for it is that it offers hybrid in the base model If you wanted a hybrid Mazda then you will pay much the same price. Also I am not a big fan of Toyotas CVT
Got one for my wife 34k otd but I had a lot of add ons because she drives a lot basically her vehicle is covered for life on power train unlimited miles. like 7 years tire coverage if she gets a nail she gets a new tire no patching or plugging. Gap insurance and bumper to bumper warranty
Just curious when it’s says maintenance required when it’s close to the 10k mark or 25k whatever does it pop up with an oil change symbol and tell you how many miles you have until you are out of oil ?
Just what I'm looking for a basic car without a bunch of unnecessary gizmos like things that break and a price in the low $20,000 range what not to love? I see other car companies charging extra to delete the shiny trim. 😁
Bland but that’s the beauty of it…. Simplicity. Solid reliable car will easily last 200,000 miles, while the Korean cars are at the junkyard. The increase of 30 Horsepower with the new engine makes the base much more compelling. Only gripe is that ugly IPad style screen that is mounted on the dash.
Actually, the Hyundai Elantra is more reliable than the Toyota Corolla-and fun too! And that's not all! The Corolla isn't the only good car, here's a list of other compact sedans to take note of: 1: Honda Civic 2: Mazda3 3:Ford Focus 4:Nissan Sentra The list just keeps going on and on and on...Only buy a Corolla if you REALLY need okay transportation.
Not sure where you got that info about reliability, but the Corolla arguably has strongest reliability track record in the segment, Civic also high up there. Focus isn’t sold in the US anymore. Nevertheless, the Elantra is a good entry. If you want a more special Corolla, they offer the hatchback and other higher sport trims. This LE is the base model and keeps costs very affordable, whereas the civic has gone up in price quite a bit for 2023.
I prefer upright displays. Easier to see while driving and easier to reach. They don’t impede on visibility like you would think. I also think it’s more modern as a look, but the former things are what are important.
Good review. Just a tip, you don’t need to describe the black plastic pieces and panels that I can see but do show the DRLs and other lights. Also, adjust the driver seat to your comfort, tell us how tall you are and then sit behind that position. It’s easier to judge the second row space that way. Otherwise, keep up the good reviews.
Great looking car for a economic car. At times it feels like Your driving a more expensive car but at the same Time still looks like a just economic car
I've been driving Corollas since 1984. They're economical to buy, insure, repair, and to operate. I went to the dark side and drove three Ford products back in the 1990's. NEVER AGAIN! We just bought a "used" 2023 Corolla LE that had a whopping 208 miles on her at the time of sale. Not sure what the story is on that, but with one minor, but annoying exception, we couldn't be happier. Complaints: The plastic that covers the steering wheel is something I would expect to find in a Hyundai or a KIA....far below Toyota's reputation for quality. (one minor, but annoying exception) A steering wheel cover took care of that. IMO, the "steering wheel technology" (buttons) offers more cures than illnesses, but I'm a paper and pencil guy living in a high-tech world. I will say the backup camera is nice to have. I'm now in my mid 60's, and if it isn't a Toyota or Honda, I won't even test drive it.
Did you get your 208 mile car from a Toyota dealership? Some dealerships will have a designated demo car that they put the miles on and then pass along later at a discount.
I use wireless Android Auto and it’s a bit finicky. Half the time it doesn’t automatically connect and I have to go into the settings and tell it to connect. Three quick taps on the screen isn’t a huge deal and maybe Carplay is more reliable, but it is a little annoying.
yep it's the price. corolla xle price creeps on a camry and most people would rather take the larger car with more power over the extra features from the corolla xle
In terms of tech it’s pretty equal. The safety and driver assistance tech here is TSS 3.0 which is far more feature rich and advanced than the Civic, and the standard Corolla display is larger and also more feature rich with wireless CarPlay. Civic gets push button start and smart entry standard with a larger gauge cluster display. Then again the Civic is a few grand more base model wise. Tradeoffs.
How did you get it for only ~$22K...? In Bay Area; the LE starts at ~$24K... ...plus dealer markups/ taxes/destination/fees/3-4 year financing fees... ...a Base LE Costs atleast ~28K... Yes; $28K for an entry level car...!
$21,550 is before the destination fee. Destination fee is $1,095 for the corolla and most will come with just the floor mats. That should still put you under $23k for one of these and there are more and more dealers now that don't markup cars you just gotta reach out to a few of them. As far as tax, interest, and other expenses, those come along with any car purchase or loan.
@@Krowicki 1. I called 4 dealers in my area, they all have dealer markups..! 2. $22-24K is the Advertised “Finance” price Only...! ...unlike other things; if I want the “Pay in Full at once”... the Car is atleast ~$3K MORE than the advertised price...! The dealer in essence “forces” you to finance...! 3. Taxes/etc... is Still “Real” Money out of your/me bank account..!
So all these comments are right but there is a way around this. Ask for a base car without all the accessories. You can specifically ask for a vehicle from the manufacturer without it hitting the dealership. Once you have it hit the dealership they put all these fees and markups on it. It also depends if your sales person is nice enough to do that for you.
Sure I'm in the minority but I hate the new trend with manufacturers putting what looks like a giant Samsung tablet sitting up high in the middle like this Toyota. Not a fan but must be popular with folks since I see it everywhere
I'm 34. Not a boomer, but I hate all the modern tech in the cars. Not only do they look ugly to me, but I feel like I am being babied with all the safety features. Not to mention I am not good with tech anyway and find most of these controls complicated and unnecessary for my purposes.
I’m 22, and I love my Corrolla screen. I can accept Uber eats orders, type in the GPS, change my music on apple car play! I guess it’s for the young folk! 😊

Great review. Very informational. Thank you.
Hey, could you show more ab the new infotainment system? Thanks
Went to 3 different dealerships in LA area today. Minimum OTD they're asking for LE Gas Corolla was $32,500. Still insane mark-ups.
That seems to be area dependent. In Canada I have dealers offering MSRP although wait times are long (6-8 months+ on factory orders).
Just reserved Corolla le in pa with tax 25k car will be delivered in few weeks
Try Elk Grove CA, no dealer markups
Got one for my wife 34k otd but I had a lot of add ons because she drives a lot basically her vehicle is covered for life on power train unlimited miles. like 7 years tire coverage if she gets a nail she gets a new tire no patching or plugging. Gap insurance and bumper to bumper warranty
$32,500 for an LE sounds insane… I just got a 2024 SE for $25,500, which I believe was a fair price.
Any more than that and I’m looking at nicer cars.
Just curious when it’s says maintenance required when it’s close to the 10k mark or 25k whatever does it pop up with an oil change symbol and tell you how many miles you have until you are out of oil ?
I will buy a new sle 2025 : yup
5:58 Wow! That door chime sounded different!
Nice review. Somehow Toyota is not breaking through when it came to the new edition
SE hatchback next please 🙏!
as soon as i can get my hands on one i’ll post it

I honestly don't like the design of the 2023, great features though.

Can you share the video of passenger side leg room area and underneath of glove box area, looks like it has exposed wiring
Please do test drives. We want to know how it drives. No more multi link suspension on standard corollas I hear.
That new Toyota chime 😖😖😖
Toyota shouldn’t have updated the chime or Atleast thought of a different one
I’ve just noticed something. Does your car have black liner under the hood when opening up the hood engine? Thanks
Sequoia capstone in care to you
Great review I will get the 2023 by the end of the year. Red one
Highway MPG 46 on the Corolla Hybrid LE vs 53 on the Camry Hybrid LE? Does not make sense.
Do you guys know any Toyota dealerships in Southern California that don’t mark up?

Our new Corolla may arrive at the dealership as early as next month. Can't wait.
Is there an onboard navigation system? Doesn't seem so.
Does the 2023 LE still have the rear independent suspension ?
Yes
I’m pretty sure it doesn’t have an independent rear. I think you need to bump up to the SE for that.
Good review. Just a tip, you don’t need to describe the black plastic pieces and panels that I can see but do show the DRLs and other lights.

If its starting at 21,000 why do dealers charge 28,000 for same model?
I got mines use and it was 21 k but a new one was like 5 k more I got the 2020 1.8 l
Does the corral le 23 come with two modes.? Eco and drive?
Thanks for this excellent video!
I like this but I would have to get the less expensive convenience package
The centre screen looks like an after thought sticking up in the air and molded into the centre console.
The wireless CarPlay alone makes me wish I waited a bit longer. I have the 2021 model.

Does the LE have 1st launch gear???
I don't understand. What is it that makes the LE more compelling than the XLE? The price?
yep it's the price. corolla xle price creeps on a camry and most people would rather take the larger car with more power over the extra features from the corolla xle
No top glove box? No back seat pockets?
the previous version look better though.
Do you think this is a good car for a short girl?
I give it 10 more years and soon Corolla will hit 200 hp
my old 95 corolla had 105 hp. we'll get there one day lol
This car seems fairly low tech compared to the 2023 honda civic sport.

No more hand break 😢
No push to start woah 😮
It’s a NO for me…
Got the download at a Toyota and a Honda dealer recently. Corolla le 26260 out the door...civic lx 26700....im goin honda!
Why the Honda?
You did not show the trunk!
Excellent video
I like
2.0 Dynamic farce engine good luck getting 200,000 miles out of that engine.
Why do you say that
How did you get it for only ~$22K...?
In Bay Area; the LE starts at ~$24K...
...plus dealer markups/ taxes/destination/fees/3-4 year financing fees...
...a Base LE Costs atleast ~28K...
Yes; $28K for an entry level car...!
$21,550 is before the destination fee. Destination fee is $1,095 for the corolla and most will come with just the floor mats. That should still put you under $23k for one of these and there are more and more dealers now that don't markup cars you just gotta reach out to a few of them. As far as tax, interest, and other expenses, those come along with any car purchase or loan.

1. I called 4 dealers in my area, they all have dealer markups..!
2. $22-24K is the Advertised “Finance” price Only...!
...unlike other things; if I want the “Pay in Full at once”... the Car is atleast ~$3K MORE than the advertised price...!
The dealer in essence “forces” you to finance...!
3. Taxes/etc... is Still “Real” Money out of your/me bank account..!
@@oskarngo9138 I’d look at dealers in the valley. No point shopping around that metro
So all these comments are right but there is a way around this. Ask for a base car without all the accessories. You can specifically ask for a vehicle from the manufacturer without it hitting the dealership. Once you have it hit the dealership they put all these fees and markups on it. It also depends if your sales person is nice enough to do that for you.
First thing I'd do is remove that infotainment crap, cut out the dash and put a normal radio inside
Sure I'm in the minority but I hate the new trend with manufacturers putting what looks like a giant Samsung tablet sitting up high in the middle like this Toyota. Not a fan but must be popular with folks since I see it everywhere
I'm 34. Not a boomer, but I hate all the modern tech in the cars. Not only do they look ugly to me, but I feel like I am being babied with all the safety features. Not to mention I am not good with tech anyway and find most of these controls complicated and unnecessary for my purposes.
I’m 22, and I love my Corrolla screen. I can accept Uber eats orders, type in the GPS, change my music on apple car play! I guess it’s for the young folk! 😊

Rear end on this car is busted. So ugly. 2019 lights were way better. That stupid bar in the middle makes it look like a kia from 2002.
