Agreed. Others may laugh but if you research the most trustworthy and reliable vehicles, Toyota and Lexus are number 1 and that's the reason why a 1980's Toyota sells for the same price as a BMW or Merc from the late 2000's
Toyota lately has been killing it with their designs. It's like they realised what Kia, Hyundai and Mazda have been doing these last few years and now want their piece of the cake.
I agree, many improvements and steps in the right direction except one. The touch screen radio looks horrible and cheapens the look of the dash. Other than this everything looks great.

This is South Africa. Not the US. We don't see it the same. German cars are very reliable. We have people who actually know how to look after them and service them. It seems people in the US only know about simpleton cars so the German cars confuse them. VW has 5 of their cars in the top 10 best selling cars in South Africa every month. Why? Because they're bulletproof reliable and cheap to maintain. The C Class and 3 series is the best selling sedan. Toyota tried with their Lexus IS which doesn't even sell 1 model a month. Even from mainstream brands, the Mazda 6 was discontinued, the Honda Accord was discontinued etc because no one wanted those. The C Class and 3 series sell best in class because they are reliable and cheap to maintain.
I use to be a Merc technician and now deal with extended warranties. The French and Germans are constantly competing on who can build the most troublesome cars. People have to folk out thousands to repair engines, gearboxes and control units besides other items that wear out prematurely like suspension components (at 60 000km), interior switches, etc. Japanese cars go on forever. Be it Toyota, Honda, Mazda, Mitsubishi, Suzuki. My Toyota is 8 years old with 130 000km and I've only done scheduled services and a set of brake pads. Even the original globes are still working. 🙂
Toyota really is the greatest car brand, no wonder the Corolla is the best selling nameplate of all time.This car is the most premium Corolla yet and will sell well because with SUVs ruling the roost, the most sensible sedan will always be the Corolla with that unmatched reputation for reliability and quality.I predict in five years Lexus will be giving BMW and Mercedes a run for their money in the South African premium car segment as I am starting to see slot more on the roads and as South Africans show more brand awareness which will be great since Lexus dominates in most major markets...
In the U.S. market the model tested is the top model among Corolla sedans, perhaps this is the top model in South Africa? If so, that would explain why it is so expensive. The U.S. has/had several Corolla trim levels below this: starting with a 1.8 liter powered sedan in near " bare bones " / poverty spec " L " trim, then an LE, and 1 or 2 more trim levels until you get to XSE which is equivalent to this model.
@@SDav21 Drove the 2.0 with the manual at the coast and its pretty good - far from "wheezy" (have you driven it?) , also this new car has double wishbones at the rear so its not that bad
SDav21 this one is a good contender. The 2021’s are being shipped straight from Japan. Check local dealer websites. Vin numbers starting with J. I trust the CVT in the 2021 models
@@samueljames657 got 2016 corolla S with 66K miles on it and CVT no problem traded to a 2021 corolla SE made in Japan has 3500 miles on it and seems doing very good . .. love this car.
In the US, this would be the XLE trim, but it comes with 1.8l engine. The SE and XSE trim comes with the 2.0l engine and direct shift cvt that has a physical launch gear. Toyota safety sense 2.0 and Apple 🍏 car play is standard. The SE trim looks far better then this SA version. Toyota did a very good job with the suspension tuning. It is a quality car.
Thank you very much. Don't know much about the car, but the presentation was brilliant. Completely opposite of what I was suspecting (dreading?). All too often I click on a likely thing about cars, and get a car in the distance with a hooligan foreground in a back-to-front hat who shouts at me in the plural. So nice to find a chap who does the right thing, knows what he's doing and talks to me as a person with a brain. Right. Spleen vented. Thank you very much.
Honest review; I can give them that. I test drove the 1.8L CVT and the 2.0L manual, and I have to say, the manual variant is a much better option. Personally, I’d never buy a car that has a CVT gearbox because you are not going anywhere fast and that drone sound is just super annoying. My pick? Any of the offerings except the CVT.
even my old 93 sedan sentra has more boot space than most SUVs. But the car I loved most for being able to transport giant stuff was the Fiat Uno FIRE. How far have we come where those were like R23000 new.
I have owned several Honda/Acura cars in the past but might be interested in the Corolla (more likely the hatchback model tho) if only it wasn't getting to be nearly impossible to buy either a Corolla or any Honda with a manual transmission. It isn't just the sound and behavior of a CVT that puts me off, it's the " iffy " reliability that has me trying to stick with a manual transmission. If the only transmission choice was a proper automatic transmission I would find it easier to consider buying a Corolla.
Hi. On La't Wiel they also tested this very same spec Corolla. According to the tester this is thé best CVT transmission he ever tested. I personally love this Toyota. For once they broke away from the bland designs of yesteryear. Only if my wallet would allow me to buy a puppy like this 😉
CIRO is spot on if you want an almost sporty sedan then you should definitely get this car... you can go to the track and then not go around it..😅or you could. I think if you gonna make the boot pop up it should pop up all the way..
The Android Auto thing is very confusing on the new Corollas... It seems for different countries it might be different. As of early 2020 in Canada, only the hatchback has AA and not the sedan. The salespeople are even confused as they put AA and carplay stickers on the sedans when they didn't have AA. I pointed that out and they had to ask several people and check sources then removed it the next week I was in negotiating my lease pt2. I have been driving the 2020 hatchback, and gotta say. Huge jump in terms of performance and driving feel from my older 2017 Corolla, and I'm one of the regular folks that just drive a car to work and back. It's a bit less boring driving 60km every day to work and back, so I guess money well spent. The only complaint is the hatch is very easy to get dirty which is annoying as it's a manual door to open and close and get dirt all over your hand.
The infotainment screen looks like a kids iPad toy with small buttons. The bezels are way to thick on that radio. It really detracts from the rest of the cabin design.
LED lights should also be used for the rear lights. Otherwise it just looks cheap. Everyone is doing LED lights apart from Toyota. Those incandescent bulbs are so 90s.
Review I waited for so long before lockdown. Indeed it is a nice car step up from corolla quest and had all the safety features. I love it and considering it especially xr. Great review. Mazda 3 top spec have a Head up display and corolla doesn't have.
No panoramic sunroof, Vw will always win based on looks. Toyota in the 19ths. And for R400000 I could by a nice TSi Golf or a Polo Gti 2018. I will get more power and attention 🙂. Just saying. What do you guys say?
The latest Polo GTI will definitely be tempting (in RSA I'd be a bit scared to drive a Polo and park it somewhere), but you can also get the 2020 Mazda 3 hatch in top spec for around 440k, I'd rather just go for that if I want something like the Corolla
The trim level of this toyota is equivalent the the xle trim in america, the second highest trim. The highest is the xse in the u.s. the top trim here is 27-28,000 usd
Good review but I don't agree on the sedan boot. Having a large boot is of little use when you have to load large items. It's very well if you have suitcases to load but not for larger items or even a bike.
Basically, we got the original US corolla version 5 years after its US launch. The tail lights look like they came of a Fiesta sedan :(. Corolla 1.4 D4D economy is a win. I still want some presenters to make some noise about it.
Cirro did not just say “if you want to buy the fastest car in this segment, you have to buy a corolla” 😅. As all ways Toyota never fails to disappoint, they just switching it up 👍🏼
As usual, one will get all too excited for nothing with a Corolla , and to be really honest, the only thing that stands out for this Toyota is that its a naturally aspirated 2.0 engine which still give us hope that a normal combustion engine can still work in today's environmentally concerned community. So yes!, the Brand has stood the test of time but really in my opinion it a bit too little to late. I will reserve my real comments about other things, but its good to know that the Corolla has decided to join the party.
I had to sell my 2013 Corolla due to the dreadful CVT gearbox. Couldn't live with it. Shame because being a corolla it was 100% reliable to drive. Was too boring a car though. Ok for shopping, rental car etc
Nah it's well positioned. You pay for quality and reliability and ease of mind. Over the course of 5 years the car will pay for itself with lack of servicing needs, as well as retaining its value really well. It's a Toyota so you'll likely die before it does
Cvt not very good when driving up high hills at a sudden change in driving condition, up high hills. Sport auto probably better. My Corolla made in Thailand, minor internal faults here and there. Made in Japan probably better. But engine wise probably no difference, since ready assembled.
To be honest if you can afford this, you can easily afford the top spec Mazda 3, that would be my pick, it has the looks of a premium car(outside and inside) and it even feels like one.
You still learning about automobiles I see comparing a Mazda to a Toyota.its been done before, 30 years later you still see the Toyota running on the streets where no even remembers a Mazda 3.Its the best selling vehicle of all time...
Same here. The build quality, materials and interior/exterior aesthetics of the Mazda are far superior to the Toyota. Warranty is another story though.
Toyota is trying to do what Mazda is doing however they do not have the same quality in terms feel and drive and design. Why would a person spend R400k on a Corolla?
I think old people who have everything already are the target market for this - recent graduates or youngsters would rather get a Polo GTI or something at this price.

CVTs have a short lifespan so I doubt they'd be used as Ubers. Not in this country at least.

This car is pretty good. Some people have no idea how good it is.
We had a 1971...wagon...cost 1900 hundred dollars...brand new...
This car would be really nice if it was a little bit longer. But it's short like an Etios.
Just bring the station wagon version...
I have been telling people to buy a manual. This CVT is boring. The infotainment again is boring. But the car is hott🔥
Please review the Yaris GR
Whats the name of the track @ 2:15 ?, very mellow
Toyota is trying to do what Mazda is doing however they do not have the same quality in terms feel and drive and design. Why would a person spend R400k on a Corolla?
Does it have a panaramic roof option?
Who's the target market? At R400k you'll lose the Uber and entry level market that you've served on earlier models.
I think old people who have everything already are the target market for this - recent graduates or youngsters would rather get a Polo GTI or something at this price.
@Richard Favreau Doesn't look luxury at all. It literally has what is expected from a car in 2020.
Remember the uber guys use the Corolla Quest, still very available
There's the quest for the entry level market
