For six decades, the Toyota Corolla has been synonymous with long-term reliability, low cost of ownership, and easy daily driving. Celebrating its 60th milestone anniversary, the 2027 Toyota Corolla builds on that foundation with upgraded cabin displays, standard safety enhancements, and a milestone limited edition model.
Whether you need an efficient daily commuter, an all-wheel-drive hybrid for changing weather conditions, or a sporty hatchback, the 2027 Corolla lineup delivers a configuration for every lifestyle.
What’s New for 2027
Toyota keeps the core strengths of the Corolla intact while introducing several key upgrades across the family:
60th Anniversary Special Edition: Based on the Hybrid SE grade, this limited-run model (capped at 2,500 units in the U.S.) features exclusive 18-inch machined black alloy wheels, custom interior badging, sport fabric seat inserts, and an optional Supersonic Red exterior paint exclusive to the edition.
Upgraded Display Technology: An 8.0-inch Toyota Audio Multimedia touchscreen comes standard, with a larger 10.5-inch high-resolution display standard on top trims and available on SE grades.
New Exterior Shade: A deep black paint option named "Inked" replaces Midnight Black Metallic across sedan and hatchback options.
Two Proven Powertrain Options
The 2027 Corolla continues to offer two distinct driving setups depending on whether your priority is responsive gas power or maximum miles-per-gallon:
2.0L Dynamic Force 4-Cylinder (Gas Models): Standard on LE, SE, and XSE trims.
It generates 169 horsepower and 151 lb-ft of torque through a Dynamic-Shift CVT with a physical launch gear for quick off-the-line acceleration. Estimated Fuel Economy: Up to 32 City / 41 Highway MPG on LE gas models.
1.8L Hybrid with Fifth-Gen Toyota Hybrid System (Hybrid Models): Available on Hybrid LE, Hybrid SE, and Hybrid XLE.
Delivering 138 net combined horsepower, this system prioritizes extreme fuel efficiency. Estimated Fuel Economy: Up to 53 City / 46 Highway MPG on FWD hybrid models.
Available Electronic On-Demand AWD: Uses a dedicated electric motor on the rear axle to instantly send traction to the rear wheels in snow, rain, or loose gravel without requiring a heavy mechanical driveshaft.
Standard Technology and Cabin Comfort
Every 2027 Corolla is engineered around clean ergonomics, simple daily functionality, and seamless digital integration:
Seamless Smartphone Connectivity: Standard wireless Apple CarPlay® and wireless Android Auto™ across all grades, paired with dual Bluetooth® phone connectivity.
Digital Gauge Displays: Features a 7-inch digital gauge cluster on entry trims, moving up to an available 12.3-inch fully digital instrument cluster on higher trims.
Available Premium Upgrades: Premium options include SofTex®-trimmed heated front sport seats, a power tilt/slide moonroof, a Qi wireless charging pad, and a 9-speaker JBL® Premium Audio system.
Standard Safety Confidence: Toyota Safety Sense 3.0
Driver peace of mind remains central to the Corolla experience. The Toyota Safety Sense 3.0 (TSS 3.0) active safety suite is standard across all 2027 models, offering:
Pre-Collision System with Pedestrian & Cyclist Detection
Full-Speed Range Dynamic Radar Cruise Control
Lane Departure Alert with Steering Assist & Lane Tracing Assist
Road Sign Assist & Automatic High Beams
Proactive Driving Assist (gentle automated braking and steering support into curves)
Standard Blind Spot Monitor (BSM) with Rear Cross-Traffic Alert (RCTA)
