What features does the Toyota Corolla Touring Sports have?

Like most Toyotas, standard kit on the Corolla Touring Sports is pretty generous. When it launched, even basic models had a reversing camera, LED headlights, dual-zone climate control and a touchscreen infotainment system with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto support.

Higher trim levels, and sometimes newer variants, come with all-around parking sensors, a head-up display and a powered boot lid.

Is the Toyota Corolla Touring Sports reliable?

Toyota was the first brand to bring hybrids to the masses with the Prius, and the Corolla benefits from more than two decades of constant improvement.

In fact, the Japanese automaker is so confident in its reliability that it started offering an industry-leading 10-year warranty in 2021. Be aware this is a standard three-year warranty that can be extended up to 10 with annual servicing at recognised garages.

How much does the Toyota Corolla Touring Sports cost to run?

Owing to its lack of popularity, the 1.2-litre turbocharged petrol unit was axed from the lineup, reducing it to just the 1.8-litre and 2.0-litre hybrids.

In the real world, you’re likely to get around 60mpg, or even higher. The Corolla Touring Sport sits in a pretty low insurance group, too.

Who is the Toyota Corolla Touring Sports suitable for?

A used Toyota Corolla Touring Sports has a lot of appeal because it’s just as adept at being a family motor as it is a commuter car.

It’s a great pick for anybody wanting to reduce their running costs without sacrificing style, and its sizeable boot lends it well to anybody looking for their next adventure.

Other similar models include the Vauxhall Astra Sports Tourer, Ford Focus Estate and Peugeot 308 SW, but none offer self-charging hybrid setups.
