Toyota Corolla
More affordable than its main competitor, the Honda Civic, the Corolla offers a wide array of models in addition to sedan and hatchback body styles. The four-door Corolla is available with a gas engine or hybrid powertrain, the latter with the option of all-wheel drive. Performance enthusiasts will love the GR Corolla hot hatch, which cranks out 300 hp. For 2025, an automatic transmission joins the standard manual gearbox, but it comes with a hefty price tag.
