The wait was worth it, the summer of 2018 will have hatchback descending in droves, and we're here to tell you all about them! With fuel economy numbers reaching up to 32 city, 42 highway, and 36 combined, this is a vehicle you are going to want to know about!

Starting with, well the hatch, we can see the incredible amount of thought Toyota put into this vehicle. The lightened hatch is currently created from TSOP (Toyota Super Olefin Polymer) and ABS (Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styrene) and also is fashioned at a more sheer angle (14 degrees frontward) to attain an easily athletic look. This incarnation gets lower, wider, and shorter than the vehicle it was founded upon, the Corolla iM. Its hood gets 2" beneath where it was prior, which allows for expansive and functional forward visibility while at the same time, it also gains broader front/rear tracks as well as a lengthier wheelbase. The new frontal fashioning utilizes a curved nose and a trapezoidal-shaped lower grille. The XSE model gets in the game with dual-zone climate control, a chrome front grille surround, heated front seats, an 8-way power driver's seat, a standard high-res 8" multimedia touchscreen, 18" wheels, and LED fog lights. The SE trim has 2 front USB outlets one-zone automatic climate control, paddle shifters behind the steering wheel, a 3-door SmartKey system, automatic up/down windows, and a leather shift knob. Back to the SE, there is standard Entune 3.0 Audio with an 8" touchscreen, 6-speakers, Apple CarPlay compatibility, Amazon Alexa, Siri Eyes Free, voice recognition and music streaming via Bluetooth, and available Weather/Traffic! The Entune 3.0 Audio Plus system debuts as standard on the XSE trim (option for SE CVT), and gains HD Radio, Remote Connect, and SiriusXM with Cache Radio. Look into as well the Entune 3.0 Audio Premium election on XSE CVT. Which installs an 800-watt JBL 8-speaker system with Clari-Fi, Dynamic Navigation, Destination Assist Connect, and more!

There is a new TNGA 2.0L Dynamic-Force direct-injection inline 4-cylinder engine for the Corolla hatchback. Note in addition the 6-speed iMT manual transmission, and a Dynamic-Shift CVT with a ton of power and mpg management authority. The fresh TNGA Platform with Sport-Tuned Suspension also makes its way into this vehicle, and road experience and fuel efficiency is augmented via the use of aluminum, high- and ultra-high tensile steel within the lighter-weight body and framework. Drivers will be excited to know that torsional rigidity is enhanced 60 percent more than prior versions! Wheel sizes also can be from 16" to 18" in diameter.

On the on XSE CVT, there is an available innovative Adaptive Front Lighting System (AFS). Standard Toyota Safety Sense 2.0 includes features such as: Lane Departure Alert with Steering Assist, Lane Tracing Assist, Pre-Collision System with Pedestrian Detection, Blind Spot Monitor, Full-Speed Range Dynamic Radar Cruise Control, Dynamic Radar Cruise Control, Automatic High Beams, and Road Sign Assist. If you are not familiar with Road Sign Assist or Lane Tracing Assist, that's because they are new to the arena. RSA will sound or light up an alert on the Multi-Information Display when it "sees" certain traditional road signs, and LTA is system that the driver can switch on or off manually that "sees" the yellow or white road marking lines (or the vehicle in front) and then assists in keeping the 2019 Corolla Hatchback in the center of the correct lane. The 2019 Corolla Hatchback has seven standard airbags and a backup camera.
