2003 Toyota Corolla Interior

If you are a big and tall person, you might find the inner space of the Corolla a little bit stuffy, but then it’s a small car. Nonetheless, you can always adjust the seats to fit your weight.

Looking inside the Toyota Corolla feeds your eyes with modest luxury, which makes you see the car is not so cheap after all. The beautifully finished soft pleated leather seats which most buyers love about the car can seat about 5 persons conveniently. The center console and portions of the armrest on the door panels have a wood-like veneer trim.

Inside the LE and S models, you find a leather-wrapped steering wheel as standard.
