Are you looking for a new vehicle that’s not only reliable but also stylish and entertaining? Well, look no further than the 2019 release of the Toyota Corolla. The Toyota name has always been recognized for its long-term reliability and efficiency. In addition to the incredible safety features, the exterior appearance and exciting entertainment options make the new Corolla an enticing option.
Stylish and Modern Exterior
If you like choices, you’ll love the six trim level option on the 2019 Corolla. The base model is represented by the L trim with the LE, LE Eco, XLE, and XSE making up the more feature-rich offerings. All trims have LED headlamps, which are more durable, brighter, and more efficient. The trims create a diverse set of options for bumpers, grilles, and accents. Higher trims add chrome-tipped exhaust and rear spoiler lips. Turn signal indicators in the side mirrors are also included with higher trims.
Most trims include the option to add other components to enhance the visual appearance as well. Features such as mud flaps, painted accents, and side moldings are available additions on several trims.
Engine and Performance Features
Only one engine is available across the six trim levels on the 2019 Corolla. While the selection is nice, sometimes it’s best to stick with what works. In this case, the four-cylinder engine provides plenty of power to accelerate to highways speeds and execute passing maneuvers with ease. It produces 132 horsepower and utilizes a variable valve timing system instead of a timing belt. When operating at an optimal 4,400 RPMs, the engine produces 128 pound-feet of torque.
When it comes to performance, there isn’t much variation either thanks to the single-engine configuration. All trims are equipped with front-wheel drive and there’s no all-wheel drive availability. A two-speed CVT transmission is the standard offering, however, some trims include the option to switch between automatic and manual transmissions. The SE trim also has a manual transmission option.
Luxurious and Feature-Rich Interior
The inside of the Corolla is just as impressive as what’s under the hood. Each trim adds a new layer of comfort and luxury. The L trim has a faux-metal console, ambient lighting, and cloth upholstery. The LE and Eco trims add a premium cloth upholstery and chrome accents. All trims except for the base trim have a leather-wrapped steering wheel.
In regards to technology and entertainment, you’ll find the 2019 Corolla exceeds your expectations. Even the base trim is loaded with tons of in-demand features. The Entune system allows you to connect your smartphone for media streaming and more. The voice-activated radio system keeps your hands on the wheel while driving. When you do need to interact with the touchscreen LCD display, you’ll love how simple and easy the interface is.
A Host of Great Safety Features
In addition to all the amazing features listed above, the 2019 Corolla has tons of excellent safety features. It’s equipped with Toyota Safety Sense, which is their exclusive suite of driver assistance features. Side curtain airbags throughout the cabin keep passengers safe during a collision.
If all the great features above seem enticing, you’ll want to see the new Corolla for yourself. Check out our online inventory or schedule a test drive at Smart Motors Toyota in Madison, WI today.
