The new Toyota Corolla has already landed in Spain and can be yours for 21,350 euros or 200 euros a month

The compact segment has been given a boost by the arrival of a model that revives one of the most iconic and acclaimed names of all time, the Toyota Corolla. This model arrives as the ideal successor to the Auris and, although it was initially going to keep its name unchanged, the Japanese brand decided to give it a touch of nostalgia. Now, this nostalgia also reaches the Spanish market, where the new Toyota Corolla will establish itself, seeking to maintain the success of its predecessors thanks to a very competitive starting price, which is set at 21,350 euros.

With this premise, the Japanese brand will seek to offer an innovative yet accessible product, ensuring that technology and efficiency once again go hand in hand. At the same time, this generation of the Corolla is presented as one of the most versatile in its history, in which the Compact, Touring Sports and Saloon body styles will also be available in Spain.

Two engines and six trim levels

It is true that Toyota did not face an easy task when conceiving the successor to the Auris, but its efforts and innovations have been enough to unleash the new Corolla. This model not only arrives with important novelties in terms of design, but also in mechanics and personalisation, with the aim of meeting the needs and tastes of its potential customers.

There will be two powertrains available for our Corolla, and both will rely on self-charging hybrid technology as their main lifeblood. At first, we find the entry-level heart, a 1.8 capable of producing 122 CV; however, we can also opt for the 2.0 which delivers 180 CV of power, and which can be paired with the Corolla Hybrid and Corolla Hybrid Touring Sports versions, while the Saloon will be powered only by the more modest engine.

Business Plus, Active, Active Tech, Feel!, Advance and Advance Luxury are the six equipment levels with which the new Toyota Corolla can be configured. The first three trims can only be combined with the entry-level powertrain, while the last two come into play when we choose the 2.0-litre engine to power the Toyota Corolla. The Feel! equipment level can be paired with either of the two engines offered by the brand.

Toyota continues to make safety its flagship feature, among other essential components, and for this reason every single variant of the Corolla will include as standard the so-called Toyota Safety Sense 2.0. This system takes care of safety measures such as Pre-collision System with daytime cyclist and pedestrian detection and nighttime pedestrian detection, Adaptive Cruise Control with automatic stop and start function, Lane Departure Alert, Road Sign Recognition and Intelligent High Beam Control.

Technology is also another of the attractions of the new Corolla, and for this reason we can find certain features such as a 7″ TFT screen, wireless charging for latest-generation smartphones, a second 8″ screen with Multitouch functionality that houses the infotainment system, the S-IPA intelligent parking system and MultiLED headlights with dynamic adjustment, among others.

Available in Spain from 21,350 euros

The Japanese brand has announced a starting price for the new Corolla of 21,350 euros -with Saloon bodywork-, an outlay that will bring significant advantages such as the presence of the ECO label. That figure will rise to 21,850 euros if we opt for the Japanese brand’s compact variant and, in turn, will climb to 23,350 euros if our choice is the so-called Corolla Touring Sports.

If we decide to access the Toyota family through the Corolla and want to spread the payments, the brand offers us financing at 200 euros a month. This is how the new Japanese compact arrives in our market with more strength than ever, ready to revolutionise the segment and continue offering a hybrid alternative with a value for money that is hard to beat.
