2010 Toyota Corolla Review

Toyota cars have maintained their position as one of the best sedan cars. Even in 2022, they are still highly sought-after regardless of the model. That also applies to this 2010 Toyota Corolla.

The 2010 Toyota Corolla brings two main versions to the market: the base model (which is budget-friendly) and the sporty Corolla XRS (for those looking for something more advanced and stylish).

The five trim levels of the 2010 Toyota Corolla are Base, LE, S, XLE, and XRS. The XRS is the most outstanding trim of the 2010 Corolla.

The base trim of the 2010 Corolla in 2022 is a bit short in performance and style. However, the XRS does a better job, especially in power and handling, but it’s slightly expensive compared to the base trim.

The major drawback of the 2010 Toyota Corolla is that it’s less attractive than the more recent models. It lacks the sporty modern look of its recent models, but it’s a good car for those who just want a car with minimal design and good performance.

Features of the 2010 Toyota Corolla

The base trim of the 2010 Toyota Corolla comes with a standard 1.8-litre four-cylinder engine that produces 132 horsepower and 128-pound feet of torque. While this 2010 Corolla is slightly down on power, it compensates for it in fuel economy for either its five-speed manual or the optional four-speed automatic. It has an EPA rating of 27 mpg city and 35 mpg highway.

The XRS model gives a 2.4-litre engine with 158 horsepower and has an optional six-speed automatic. The fuel economy of the XRS is also impressive, with 22 mpg city and 30 mpg highway. 

Corolla is known for safety, the 2010 Corolla comes with impressive safety features like anti-lock brakes, tire-pressure monitors, active headrests, and front, side, and curtain airbags that are all standard. Other added features are electronic stability and traction control as standard.

The Corolla has well-equipped air conditioning, a tilt/telescoping steering wheel, and a CD player. Optional infotainment features are a navigation system and XM Satellite Radio. 

According to Edmunds, the 2010 Corolla cabin is pleasant but doesn’t stand out in any particular way. The sedan comes with 12.3 cubic feet of cargo space. 

Also, Edmunds refers to the interior space of the 2010 Toyota Corolla as “having plenty of space for children and just enough room for adults.”

However, the Toyota Corolla 2010 is the quietest car in its class, with less wind noise than many other sedans in its category.
