Toyota Corolla
The Corolla is a compact sedan that has several decades under its belt already. The current generation debuted in 2009 and offers several trim levels, starting with the CE and moving up to the performance-oriented XRS, each of which is quite different from the other. The XRS has a 158-hp 2.4-litre four-cylinder under its hood, while the others are equipped with a 132-hp 1.8-litre 4-cylinder that is easy on gas. There will be a new model in 2011.
