We're here to introduce the brightest part of your future, the 2021 Toyota Corolla. The new Corolla features sporty, modern styling and is loaded with the latest technology to keep you connected to your fast-paced life. Special edition Corollas add unique touches that highlight your individuality. Here's a look at the exciting features on the 2021 Corolla's different trim levels.

Corolla L

On the outside, the Corolla L trim looks sharp thanks to its LED headlights, taillights, and daytime running lights. A stylish black front grille with a sport mesh insert, color-keyed power outside mirrors and door handles, and 15-inch styled steel wheels complete the sporty exterior.

Inside you'll find air conditioning, a fabric six-way power-adjustable driver's seat, a four-way adjustable passenger seat, and power windows and locks. A 7-inch touch screen with Alexa, Android Auto, and Apple CarPlay connectivity serves as your communications hub, along with two front USB ports. A six-speaker audio system provides premium sound quality for your music and more.

Under the hood, you'll find Toyota's 1.8-liter four-cylinder engine with dual overhead cams and 16 valves with Valvematic technology. With a continuously variable transmission, this powertrain gets 139 horsepower and 126 pound-feet of torque. The front-wheel-drive platform uses a MacPherson strut front suspension with a stabilizer bar and a multi-link rear suspension.

Toyota Safety Sense 2.0 comes standard and includes a pre-collision system with pedestrian detection, lane departure alert with steering assist, automatic high beams, road sign assist, lane tracing assist, and full-speed dynamic radar cruise control. 

Corolla LE

The next trim is the LE, which includes everything on the L trim plus additions such as color-keyed heated outside mirrors and 16-inch vent steel wheels. Getting in your Corolla is easy, thanks to the multi-function in-key keyless entry system. Once inside, you upgrade to an automatic climate control system, premium fabric, metallic trim, chrome door handles, a rear-seat center armrest with cup holders, an 8-inch touch screen, and a rear USB port.

Corolla Hybrid LE

In addition to the features on the gas-powered LE, the Hybrid LE gains high-grade LED headlights, 15-inch alloy wheels, a premium instrument cluster, and a Smart Key system with push-button start. Under the hood, the hybrid engine is a 1.8-liter aluminum four-cylinder with three drive modes and an electronically controlled continuously variable transmission that gives you 121 horsepower and 105 pound-feet of torque.

Corolla SE

Toyota's SE trim adds to the LE features with accent lighting on the LED daytime running lights and smoked sport trim on the LED taillights. A sport mesh dark gray metallic grille, turn signal indicators on the side mirrors, gray metallic sport side rocker panels, color-keyed rear spoiler, 18-inch alloy wheels with dark gray-painted accents, and a single exhaust with dual chrome tips round out the stylish exterior upgrades.

Inside you get premium sport seats and a leather-wrapped steering wheel with paddle shifters. Under the hood is Toyota's 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine with dual overhead cams and 16 valves with dual variable valve timing with intelligence. Paired with a dynamic-shift continuously variable transmission with a Sport driving mode, this powertrain gets 169 horsepower and 151 pound-feet of torque.

SE Nightshade Edition

The SE Nightshade special edition adds stylish dark accents such as a sport mesh black grille with a black bumper and surround, black heated outside mirrors with turn signal indicators, black door handles, black-painted sport side rocker panels, a black rear spoiler, black-painted 18-inch alloy wheels, and black badging.

SE Apex Edition

The SE Apex is another special edition with exterior upgrades such as a bronze and black front spoiler with C-shaped accents, color-keyed outside door handles, bronze and black side rocker panels, a color-keyed rear spoiler, 18-inch black flow-formed aluminum wheels, a sport-tuned exhaust with a conical-shaped tip, black badging, and a black roof.

Inside you lose the paddle shifters but gain bronze accent stitching. Under the hood, you get the same 2.0-liter engine but an option for a six-speed intelligent manual transmission for a more thrilling driving experience.

Corolla XLE

The XLE has all the features as the SE with a few modifications, including a black grille with a sport mesh insert, color-keyed heated outside mirrors with turn signal, and blind-spot indicators. You also get a power tilt/slide moonroof and 16-inch alloy wheels.

Inside you upgrade to heated front seats and premium SofTex seating material that's beautiful and easy to clean. The driver-assist system gains a blind spot monitor with rear cross-traffic alert. Under the hood, you go back to the 1.8-liter engine and CVT transmission.

Corolla XSE

The XSE trim comes with all the XLE features plus accent lighting on the daytime running lights, smoked sport trim on the taillights, a sport mesh dark gray metallic grille, gray metallic sport side rocker panels, a rear spoiler, and 18-inch machined alloy wheels with dark gray painted accents.

Inside you'll find eight-way power-adjustable front seats with SofTex material heated seats. You have access to luxury package options that include ambient lighting and premium audio systems. Under the hood, you return to the 2.0-liter engine.

XSE Apex Edition

This final special edition has all the features of the XSE but with the stylish bronze and black touches found on the SE Apex Edition. Under the hood, you'll find the same 2.0-liter engine and CVT transmission. The cabin features bronze stitching and stylish SofTex materials.
