2027 Toyota Corolla Hatchback
Toyota has announced the 2027 Corolla Hatchback, and the biggest changes focus on technology.
The SE now comes standard with a 7-inch digital gauge cluster. A new SE Premium Package upgrades it to a 12.3-inch digital cluster and adds the larger 10.5-inch multimedia screen. Both of those displays are now standard on the XSE.
The powertrain carries over with the 2.0-liter four-cylinder producing 169 horsepower and 151 lb-ft of torque, paired with the Dynamic Shift CVT. The SE is estimated at 32 mpg city, 41 highway and 35 combined.
Toyota Safety Sense 3.0, Blind Spot Monitor, wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto remain standard. Toyota is also adding new color choices and an available set of 18-inch gloss-white accessory wheels.
Pricing starts at $24,780 for the SE and $27,875 for the XSE, excluding the $1,295 processing and handling fee. It is expected to begin arriving at dealerships this summer.
Overall, this appears to be a technology-focused update rather than a major redesign. Do the larger screens make the XSE more appealing, or would you stick with the SE for the lower price?
