Toyota Corolla Hybrid Features

Remarkable Efficiency

Helping you make the most of every mile, the Toyota Corolla Hybrid offers an inspired combination of efficiency and responsiveness to take your adventures further than ever before. Featuring the latest innovations from the award-winning Hybrid Synergy Drive, the Corolla Hybrid comes equipped with a 1.8-liter four-cylinder gasoline engine with two motor/generators. The end result is an EPA-estimated 50 MPG combined fuel economy rating**, the highest for any Corolla model. Drivers will also have access to individual Normal, Power, and ECO driving modes for a more personalized experience behind the wheel. Equally as stylish as they are functional, 16-inch wheels with low-rolling resistance tires help to further enhance efficiency.

Inspiring Safety

Every Toyota Corolla Hybrid comes standard with the groundbreaking Toyota Safety Sense™ 3.0 system, a collection of integrated active safety features engineered to boost confidence. The Pre-Collision System is designed to respond to a potential collision by automatically applying the brakes to avoid or mitigate the impact from an accident. Great for stop-and-go traffic, Dynamic Radar Cruise Control is able to maintain a pre-set following distance relative to the vehicle in front of you and can even react if that vehicle comes to a stop. Your vehicle can even recognize Speed Limit, Stop, Yield, and Do Not Enter signs and project them directly onto the MID inside the Corolla Hybrid. In the event that your vehicle begins to drift outside of your intended lane, Lane Departure Alert with Steer Assist can provide an audible and visual alert along with gentle corrective steering inputs. Finally, the Toyota Star Safety System and 10 standard airbags help round out the impressive list of safety features found on the Toyota Corolla Hybrid.
