2014 Toyota Corolla review

1. Updated exterior styling

Entering its eleventh generation (2014-2019) with a bang, the 2014 ground-up overhaul of the Toyota Corolla does not hold back. This compact sedan makes a striking first impression. Chiseled lines bisect longer and wider curves, while nine color options offer everything from monochrome to brights. Want more? The LE Eco mid-level trims add a rear deck spoiler, while available package options can add a power tilt and slide moonroof.

2. Smart package features

In addition to its standard four-trim offering, the 2014 Corolla has two further package options to consider on the LE, LE Eco, and S trim models. Look out for a 2014 Corolla with the Plus or Premium package to unlock style, tech, and performance features that can elevate your overall ride enjoyment. All Plus packages feature alloy wheel upgrades, while the Premium packages are ideal for cold-weather driving with heated SofTex^®-trimmed front seats.

3. Great gas mileage

If you're on the road every day, more miles between fill-ups is a welcome feature that adds freedom to your schedule. All 2014 Corolla models are powered by a 132-hp, 1.8L four-cylinder engine, with the option of a manual, automatic, or continuously variable transmission (CVT), depending on the trim you choose. Choose a 2014 Corolla with the CVT for an EPA-estimated 32 mpg combined.

4. Stunningly spacious

For growing families, college roommates that ride together, and adventurers that like to pack up and hit the trails, the 2014 Corolla has generous dimensions that make traveling with a full load easy and comfortable. The 2014 re-design adds 2.6 inches of overall length to the Corolla. This provides more space for passengers to stretch out, with the added benefit of smoother ride handling too. Rear-row passengers will enjoy a luxurious 41.4 inches of legroom, while the trunk capacity also gains an increase to 13 cu-ft.

5. Plenty of useful tech

For pleasant commutes and engaging road trips, the 2014 Corolla offers features that can elevate every drive. If you want to call ahead en route to check a reservation or catch up on family news while stuck in traffic, all 2014 Corolla models feature Bluetooth^® hands-free calling. Sharing driver duties with shorter or taller friends? This Corolla has a height-adjustable driver seat and a tilt-and-telescopic steering wheel. Once you've reached your destination and are ready to park up, the 2014 Corolla (LE trim and above) can help out with an integrated rearview camera.
