The all-new Corolla sedan features both a gas and the first-ever Corolla Hybrid for the U.S. market. The Corolla sedan's stylish new look -- paired with a more fun driving experience and standard advanced technology -- truly makes this car greater than ever. From every angle, the new Corolla sedan looks lower and leaner, tauter and tighter. Powerful fender flares and generously curved fender top surfaces accent its sculpted, athletic core. The bold front fascia details vary by model grade, with the SE and XSE putting on the sportiest face, including a body-color chin spoiler and aero stabilizing fins to emphasize the wide stance. The slim, J-shaped Bi-Beam LED headlamps wrap deeply into the front fenders and give the Corolla sedan a steely stare and a distinct nighttime signature.

The instrument panel lends an open, harmonious feeling thanks to its slimmer upper surface, with character lines that interlock with the door trim to convey an airy atmosphere. At the center of the instrument panel, within easy view for the driver and front passenger, sits a high-resolution 8-inch multimedia touchscreen for the standard Entune 3.0 multimedia system.

The new Corolla sedan engine is physically smaller and lighter, helping to lower the car's center of gravity and improve its overall balance. The 2020 Corolla sedan L, LE, and XLE grades use the 1.8-liter engine found in the previous generation, yet with more horsepower and better fuel efficiency. The XSE and SE grades are powered by a completely-new 2.0-liter Dynamic-Force direct-injection inline four-cylinder engine. This new engine delivers more performance while using less fuel.

The new Dynamic-Shift CVT combines the smooth, fuel-efficient performance of a CVT with a more direct driving feel of a traditional geared automatic.
