Renting is not a loan, so there is no credit check to rent. Thinking about the 2021 Toyota Corolla Hybrid LE? Here are the numbers in plain words and what to check.

Recalls and complaints

Ask the seller for the service records of this exact car. A private seller in Ontario must give you a Used Vehicle Information Package. Have a mechanic inspect a used one before you buy it. Check whether every recall was done, by the VIN, before you pay.

Under the hood

The 1.8L 4-cylinder hybrid with front-wheel drive is the powertrain to look at. It is a hybrid: the battery charges itself as you drive and brake, so there is nothing to plug in. With front-wheel drive, the weight of the engine sits over the driven wheels, which helps in winter.

At 4.5 L/100 km combined, a 300 km drive takes roughly 14 litres of fuel. Expect about $6.98 per 100 km at our price setting. EPA puts its fuel cost at US$1,300 a year for 15,000 miles at US prices.

How big it is

A car body like this keeps the weight low, so it feels settled on the highway. The EPA measures its luggage space at 368 litres, roughly about two large suitcases and a few soft bags.

A good match for

Its low fuel use suits long commutes and high-kilometre weeks. It suits a stretch of weeks between selling one car and buying the next.

A longer test drive

Rent it, live with it for a week, and decide with real experience. Rent the Corolla for a week and see how it fits your life. Nothing is charged until we confirm the rental and you approve the offer.

The cost of driving it

The EPA estimates US$1,300 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles at US prices. Get an insurance quote for this exact model before you buy; rates differ a lot between models. Tires, brakes and batteries are the regular costs to budget for beyond fuel.

Picking a year and a trim

A newer year is not always better; check what changed before paying more for it. Compare the Hybrid LE with the other trims of the same year before you decide. If two trims share a powertrain, the difference is equipment, which you can check in person.
