It has always paid attention to blending affordability, great gas mileage, reliability, which is why critics and consumers alike have always been drawn to it. The 2019 model year is the second entry in its twelfth generation of production; as a result, it is virtually unchanged from the previous year. The latest Toyota Corolla is split into six trims, of which the L and the XLE form part of the lower tier.
