Let’s go over its price characteristics and features in further detail, and when you want a 2023 Toyota Corolla for less, remember to visit or shop online at Koons Tysons Toyota.
What's New for 2023?
The 2023 Toyota Corolla has had several tweaks without a total redesign. All-wheel drive is now available as an option for hybrid cars, as are four new hybrid trim levels. The hybrid system has been redesigned, and the LE trim's conventionally powered engine has been upgraded to 169 horsepower. There’s no manual transmission for 2023; instead, it relies on automatic transmissions.
Toyota's Connected Technologies team built and engineered a new Toyota Audio Multimedia system, which is now available across the lineup, and safety and driver-assist technology are upgraded through Toyota Safety Sense 3.0. Front and back styling have also been revised, as is customary with any new Toyota released.
Starting Price
According to current order pricing data, Toyota is raising the price range for its most affordable vehicles by up to $2,315. Unlike what some people predicted before the release, it’s not only the absence of the manual shifter to blame for the price increases. In the case of the Corolla, Toyota is pursuing a higher standard of luxury, so the 2023 model drops the old L and makes the LE trim into the base model.
With the updated safety features, touch screens, and an upgraded engine, the entry-level Corolla remains a fantastic value for money at the new starting price of $22,645, or $21,550 without the $1,075 destination charge. It's about $1,125 more than the price of the equivalent 2022 edition when it was released.
The rest of the Corolla sedan trim levels will see price increases of up to $1,075, but in some cases, as low as $375, and every single one benefits in some way. All in all, the 2023 Toyota Corolla's MSRP may be higher, but the value increase you get is well worth it.
Exterior Style and Trim Levels
The 2023 Corolla is available in six trim levels, the LE, SE, XSE, and Hybrid versions of each. Thanks to the new front and back fascias, all eyes will be on you during your commute. The sports mesh grille on the SE and XSE grades stands out for all the right reasons, and optional 18-inch alloy wheels with graphite-colored finishes contribute to an uncompromising appearance. The vehicle's distinctive headlights and LED daytime running lights add a spectacular finishing touch. For even more style, consider the optional dark gray metallic rear spoiler, diffuser, and side rocker panels.
Interior Comfort
If you're familiar with the 2022 Toyota Corolla, you'll notice the 2023 version's cabin changes as soon as you take a seat. Everything is a little more detail-heavy and elaborate, adding to a premium look. Simply sink into the Corolla's sports seats, which have simple controls within reach to keep you secure at any speed, and explore wherever you like. Furthermore, the optional SofTex-trimmed seats and leather-wrapped steering wheel are available for additional comfort.
Open the optional sunroof with the push of a button to let in some fresh air or gaze up at the stars. And available piano-black accents and soft-touch materials on the dash and doors provide you and your passengers with a level of premium comfort and polish not common for compact cars. Even with the standard model, you'll get a beautiful, functional cabin, including 13.1 cubic feet of trunk space.
Technology and Infotainment
From the minute you step inside, the Corolla's technology provides a straightforward, seamless driving experience. Its optional Smart Key System lets you unlock doors and start the car with the key fob securely in your pocket. Effortlessly access navigation and other systems via the sedan's 8-inch touch-screen display, allowing you to further personalize your drive.
Beyond the screen, the key technological equipment in the cabin includes the push-button start system, remote connect, and four USB-C ports. Wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto compatibility are also standard, as is a SiriusXM Platinum plan with a three-month trial.
Engine and Powertrain
The 2023 Corolla accelerates from zero to 60 mph in less than nine seconds, thanks to 169 horsepower and 151 lb-ft of torque. It has an efficient 2.0-liter Dynamic Force Engine with a Dynamic-Shift Continuously Variable Transmission (CVT), which combines the quick reaction of a traditional fixed first gear with the efficiency of a CVT.
Furthermore, the Corolla's paddle shifters allow you to change gears with the push of a button without taking your hands off the steering wheel. You have even more control with three separate accessible drive modes. Sport Mode gives you a more energetic acceleration experience, while Eco Mode modulates throttle input to help you maximize your efficiency, and Normal Mode balances the two.
Safety Features
A blind-spot monitor with rear cross-traffic alert, 10 airbags, a no-cost maintenance plan, and roadside assistance are all standard. Toyota Safety Sense 3.0 is a new standard collection of advanced driver assistance features. It has improved versions of automatic emergency braking, lane-keep assist, automatic high beams, adaptive cruise control, and traffic sign recognition. Blind-spot monitoring, rear cross-traffic monitoring, parking sensors, and adjustable headlights are all available through higher trims or packages.
