Thanks for the vid. I have a 2020 Corolla SE. Love this car. I wish the hatchback XSE had the exposed exhaust tips out the back like my SE. That would look so cool.
One major drawback of the Corolla Hatchback is its rear seat legroom is much shorter than the Corolla sedan version. Otherwise it's a great car, 100% made in Japan, but I'd go for the XSE model over the SE, as the XSE looks sportier and comes with wireless phone charger. After all, what's the point to have wireless Apple CarPlay or Android Auto if the car is not equipped with wireless phone charger?
I own a SE corolla hatchback with the nightshade package. the SE and the XSE are genuinely the same besides some tech differences. Everything overall in both cars that i tested were relatively the same thing. The XSE just has heated seats, powered seats, wireless charging, the digital cluster, speakers, etc. My SE only has the wireless charging but i still love it!
Check it for yourself but I think the HEADROOM in the front seats is better in Corolla than in Mazda 3 and Civic. I bought 2025 Corolla because i am 180cm tall.
I have a 2024 hatchback SE. Only complaint is the gas pedal and first direct gear does not feel well sync / match, a bit disconnected from what the trans behaves in CVT range
I got my 2011 Ford Fiesta hatchback as my first car. But now, she's really showing her age. As sad as it makes me, I think I have to get a new car. I really love this model, but I'm also going to be moving soon. I'm wondering if I should stick with what I know (small & zippy, because it helps me avoid accidents) or just be like everyone else and get a compact SUV
I'd love to have one, but impossible to find one. I'm moving on to another auto manufacturer...... I guess their bean counters don't want regular working people to have an affordable Toyota.
The vast MAJORITY of new cars are no longer for the regular working class stiffs like you and me. The exception may be Nissan and Mitsubishi (who both still have a very select few cars under $25K), but very few others. The rich grow RICHER, while the gap keeps widening between us. Sad, but true. 😢
@@LifeRx-b4z I'm with you on this one. Looks like no one knows about this option. Everybody just wants to march in the dealership, expects to find the perfectly specked car and buy it right then and there.
We got left behind in the US. I’m in Ireland for a trip and driving a Corolla hybrid hatch rental car. I wanted to buy one after the first day, so I went looking ,and no hatch hybrid. Boo!
I tried the sports mode both at the shifter and paddle shifters and I noticed something... whenever you hit the brake it downshift automatically is that normal?? Because on my 4Runner it won't do that you're in full control.
This is on my shortlist for my future graduate. Along with
1. CH-R
2. HRV
3. Mazda3
4. Soul
Thanks for the review

Great review & I would buy this car someday.
this guy should be an auctioneer ! speed lips a gogo
I wish they came with a sunroof.
No need
And I wish they'd come with a manual transmission. But wishing is like fishing without a hook. :)

The ambient lighting is an add on for the 2025 models.
0 to 60 in 7.5 seconds is pretty good for the class
Plenty quick
I'm now convinced ...... being cool actually stinks 😂😂😂😂
Can not catch up, it's like racing talk contest
Need tshirts that say…pretty stinkin cool
Haha they probably exist already but I'd rock one! 😆
Would be nice to be able to get it with a manual transmission.

I'm in dilemma whether to get the Hybrid Corolla sedan or this hatchback. The hybrid is nice for a daily commute but I kinda want the extra 30 hp

Please do a review of the 2025 Toyota Corolla sedan ZR please 🙏
My 2023 Corolla sedan was built in Japan, did they switch to US assembly in the newer years?
Still built in Japan and already released 2025 models. 25’ sedans haven’t been released yet but they’re built in the US
I'd love to have one, but impossible to find one. I'm moving on to another auto manufacturer...... I guess their bean counters don't want regular working people to have an affordable Toyota.

@@iBike2Live Why don't you try to figure out how to become rich instead of complaining about it?
impossible? really?

Yes
Why no hybrid version?
I want to know as well. I’d be buying one in a heartbeat if they bring it over.
There is
@@trevenirey2354not in the US in a hatchback sadly.
@@redcollins2 oh?? I thought there was, and I was seriously considering selling my Tacoma to get one
@@trevenirey2354 nope, you can get a sedan but not the hatch. Which is odd because I found out all the hatches are made in Japan. So why not us?
They already have the 2025 for sale?
Somewhat hard to find but yes the 2025 is out! 😁
Rear wheel Drive❔❓
Front wheel drive
@@Barry-26
