2026 Toyota Corolla Hybrid

Performance   

The Corolla Hybrid features the fifth-generation Toyota Hybrid System, available with either front- or all-wheel drive. The powertrain starts with a 1.8-liter DOHC inline-4, combined with a 70 kW (93-hp) electric motor at the front, with AWD models adding a 30 kW (40.2-hp) motor at the rear wheels. Total system power is 138 horsepower and 156 lb-ft of torque. The system is paired with a CVT, delivering power to the front or all four wheels. EPA mpg ratings may vary by trim but can reach as high as 53 / 46 / 50 for FWD models and 51 / 44 / 48 for AWD models. 

All Corolla Hybrids feature a MacPherson strut front suspension with a stabilizer bar, as well as an independent rear multilink arrangement with a stabilizer bar. 

Exterior   

The Corolla sedan features the bold front-end styling that has become the signature look for Toyota passenger cars, with headlights flowing into a low-profile upper grille and a larger intake below. Blacked-out pillars create a seamless shape across the side windows above a tall, lower body. Body-colored mirror caps and door handles add a sleek touch. All models come in the same eight exterior colors, including: 

• Blueprint 
• Wind chill Pearl 
• Ice Cap 
• Ruby Flare Pearl 
• Underground 
• Classic Silver Metallic 
• Celestite 
• Midnight Black Metallic 

Interior  

The dash features sweeping lines with soft-touch materials, and a sporty tri-spoke steering wheel greets the driver. All but the LE grade offers passive entry and push-button start. Ambient interior lighting, dual-zone climate control, and heated front seats are available. The rear seat provides more legroom than expected and can comfortably seat adults. The trunk offers 18 cubic feet of cargo space behind the back seat, which can be expanded by six cubic feet (to 23 total) if you replace the spare tire with a tire repair kit. 

Technology   

LE and SE models feature a new digital driver information display, which is upgraded to 12.3 inches on the XLE. Similarly, the LE features an 8-inch multimedia touchscreen, while the SE and XSW models come standard with a 10.5-inch display. All models feature standard wireless Apple CarPlay® & Android Auto™ compatibility.   

The Toyota Audio Multimedia system supports dual Bluetooth® phone connections. A 30-day/3GB Wi-Fi Connect trial provides 4G connectivity for up to five devices, turning the car into an AT&T Hotspot. It can also stream Apple Music® and Amazon Music subscriptions to the vehicle with the Integrated Streaming service (30-day trial included). This enhances the already robust audio features, which include HD Radio, USB data, and a 3-month SiriusXM trial subscription.   

Safety and Driver Assistance  

With standard Toyota Safety Sense (TSS) 3.0, all Corollas have an impressive suite of safety and driver assistance technologies that often require upgrades on competing models. TSS 3.0 includes:   

• Pre-Collision System with Pedestrian Detection   
• Lane Departure Alert with Steering Assist   
• Auto High Beams   
• Full-Speed Range Dynamic Radar Cruise Control
