Even with a few changes for this model year, including the addition of a fuel-efficient LE Eco trim and a memorably designed 50th Anniversary Special Edition iteration, the 2017 Toyota Corolla, in these and base L, LE, XLE, sporty SE and luxurious XSE trims, nonetheless continues to evince the perennial Toyota commitment to vehicles that go more than the extra mile.
And the automaker goes beyond such excellent base offerings as Corolla's 132-horsepower, 1.8-liter 4-cylinder DOHC 16-valve engine, showcasing Dual Variable Valve Timing with intelligence (VVT-i), and the smooth operation of Continuously Variable Transmission with intelligence and Shift Mode (CVTi-S) and electric power-assisted rack-and-pinion steering. Corolla reaches toward the top of the segment on fuel economy, too, with specific trims offering up to 27-28 mpg city/35-36 mpg city/30-32 mpg combined.
Likewise, a suite of myriad Toyota safety and driver-assist tech now comes standard, in the form of Toyota's standard Star Safety System™ and Toyota Safety Sense™ P (TSS-P), which perform diverse functions from helping to control vehicle stability and traction, to detecting and helping deter collision with pedestrians and vehicles alike, to staving off unintentional lane drift, helping Corolla keep a safe traveling distance from other vehicles, and more. And an integrated backup camera with projected path makes it easy to envision vehicles and obstacles behind you during reverse and parking.
Looking to make the most of fuel efficiency while retaining the hands-on, fun-to-drive experience? Toyota Corolla LE Eco, carrying the ultra-efficient California LEV 3 characterization, features a zippy 1.8-liter 4-cylinder DOHC 16-valve engine with Valvematic technology that enables it to put out 140 horsepower and 126 pound-feet of torque for long-haul travels, and with up to 30 mpg city, 40 mpg highway and 34 mpg combined economy thanks to ECO driving mode. A 6-speed manual transmission provides that solid feel of control enthusiasts crave. A step up to the Toyota Corolla 50th Anniversary Special Edition not only lets you choose from an array of striking exclusive colors, replete with special badging, but also delivers unique eye-catching accents like 17-in. alloy wheels. But you can experience true luxury in the top-of-the-line Toyota Corolla XSE, whose heated SofTex®-trimmed front driver and passenger seats let you sit back and relax while enjoying Nature overhead thanks to a power-tilt-and-slide standard moonroof. Just take hold of Corolla XSE's comfortable leather-trimmed, tilting, telescoping 3-spoke steering wheel, slide its wheel-mounted paddle shifters into desired gear, activate the hard-charging Sport driving mode, and hit the road.
