What to check on the Corolla

In Ontario, a used car needs a Safety Standards Certificate to be registered. Look at the tires, brakes and battery; they are costly to replace. Have a mechanic inspect a used one before you buy it. NHTSA lists 1 recall campaigns for this model; ask the seller for proof each one was fixed.

Reading the spec sheet

Its 1.8L 4-cylinder drives through an automatic (CVT). It runs on regular gas. Front-wheel drive is the usual layout for cars this size, predictable in the rain and the snow.

It is rated at 7.3 L/100 km combined; 300 km takes about 22 litres. At our price setting, it costs about $11.32 to drive 100 km. EPA puts its fuel cost at US$2,100 a year for 15,000 miles at US prices.

Good uses for the Corolla

It suits anyone who needs a car for a few days, a week or a month without buying one. It suits people curious about the model who want to drive it before they buy.

Space and size

As a compact car, it is easy to drive and park in the city. At 368 litres, the trunk fits about two large suitcases and a few soft bags.

Drive it on your own roads

Rent first, buy later: a week with the Corolla answers the big questions. Rent the Corolla for a week and see how it fits your life. If it is in our fleet, rent it; if not, a similar car gives you a feel for the class.

Picking a year and a trim

Compare the XLE with the other trims of the same year before you decide. Set a budget that includes tax, licensing, insurance and the first set of tires. Write down the VIN of any car you consider; it unlocks the recall and service history.

Money matters

The EPA estimates US$2,100 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles at US prices. A 1,000 km month costs roughly $113.20 at our price setting. Get an insurance quote for this exact model before you buy; rates differ a lot between models.
