#Toyota #corolla #hybrid

The Corolla hybrid is an amazing #mpg machine. Smooth, quiet, comfy, and #efficient.
But now that the new #camry is out, should you just spend a little more for the base #camryhybrid ?

The Toyota Corolla Hybrid returns for 2024 with the same great performance and power with up to 50 MPG combined. Available in LE, LE AWD, SE, SE AWD and XSE, all grades come standard with Toyota Safety Sense 3.0 and the latest Toyota Audio Multimedia system with wireless Apple Car Play and Android Auto. The Nightshade Special Edition will also make its return bringing back the bold style with blacked-out badging and black accents.

I loved my last-gen silver Corolla, but this Celestite color is really a wonderful color. Hybrid Corollas are so cool!

The Corolla is the GOAT of the world. I’m glad it’s still affordable in 2024, and it’s also competitive too.

Corolla LE hybrid actually is in stock for 23868 near me. Unlike a lot of the vehicles profiled. Camry hybrid for now is mission impossible for a good price

“The Corolla is much louder at highway speeds” was my impression also when I rode in the same car for 50 min ride on the highway. It’s still a good solid car, but just feels dated inside compared to a Civic or Mazda 3. I would buy a Camry Hybrid also.

To those saying take the Camry instead, consider the ‘J’ at the beginning of the vin#. No knock against Kentucky, just think it’s worth something.

Great car, but at that price I’m taking a 2025 Camry LE hybrid.

Went from a GM guzzler to a Toyota Corolla in 1988, never looked back. Good times.

[stuartfisher]

Great car for people who cannot afford a Camry or a Prius

[MonkeyPunchZPoker]

Now that the Prius is going sporty I wish they would come out with a hatchback of the Hybrid Corolla.

Another choice is the gasoline version of Corolla LE with a more powerful motor with 169 hp, if you don't drive >12K and plan to keep it for a long long time. Great for retired or students.

Wow, I just received my 2024 Corolla LE Awd Hybrid in Canada . All the features that XLE has I have, except the soft tex seats, moon roof and JBL sound system. I do get a leather wrapped heated steering wheel, auto dimming headlights and push button start . Converted to US dollars it works out to just under $23, 000 !

I have a 23’ Corolla hybrid XLE and I love the softex seats. They’re so much easier to keep clean than cloth and they’re more durable than real leather. I wanted to upgrade to the new Camry but they don’t offer a trim with full softex seats. The SE trim sadly has cloth inserts.

[brandononbrand]

Corolla's trunk size is UNDERRATED!... more practical most of the time than hatchbacks/crossovers.

[jxmar_]

Finally an XLE! They’re so “rare” lol. For the price I’d rather have the Camry LE

[chrisfronzi]

It seriously sucks that there isn’t a XSE Corolla hybrid available in the US :(

[jonathanratliff]

Great review Kirk. When should we expect next gen Corolla? Last gen had so much rear leg room, much less in this one. Hybrid Corollas made in Japan and hope that remains. My 2009 Corolla with 320k miles starting to have too many issues, I need new car. Just that I don’t like getting a new gen car in it’s first year, even with Toyota and Lexus.

You don't need blind spot monitoring if you position your mirrors correctly. There are YouTube videos on how to do it the right way. Most people have them in the wrong position.

[Cjay]

I have a Corolla hybrid awd version. Absolutely love it. Highly recommended. Those who want a Camry go get it, but I didn’t need all that haha.

[trdrav]

Its hard to find a LE Hybrid optioned with the Premium Package (Worth it if you want the stuff of the XLE) at least on the West Coast; the Convenience Package is a pretty common build

[bjsimon]

I own a hybrid, they are money savers. Still have my toys. Corolla is amazing hybrid
