Armed with a stiffer, sport-tuned suspension, the Corolla Hatchback will deliver a memorable ride at every turn.
Under the hood, the Corolla iM features a 138-horsepower 1.8-liter four-cylinder engine that will earn 28 mpg in the city and 36 mpg on the highway when paired with a Continuously Variable Transmission with Shift Mode that will mimic a seven-speed automatic transmission. Equipped with the six-speed manual gearbox, the Corolla iM will make 27 mpg in the city and 35 mpg on the highway.
Technology is another aspect of the 2019 Toyota Corolla Hatchback that sets the latest edition apart from its predecessor. A standard 8-inch Toyota Entune™ 3.0 touchscreen display provides one-touch access to Apple CarPlay and onboard Wi-Fi Connect with the addition of Bluetooth, Scout GPS Link technology, Qi wireless charging and more. To further upgrade your drive, the Corolla Hatchback will add Toyota Safety Sense™ collision-prevention systems, a 7-inch Multi-Information Display and much more.
