Reviews SummaryArmed with a deserved reputation for reliability, equipped with modern infotainment and safety technologies, and engineered to be surreptitiously enjoyable to drive, there is a 2025 Corolla for almost anyone. You can choose between a sedan or a hatchback, a gas or a hybrid powertrain, and front-wheel drive (FWD) or all-wheel drive (AWD). The performance-tuned GR Corolla is a legitimate hot hatch, while the Corolla Cross, a small crossover SUV, adds extra utility, but this review focuses on the Corolla sedan. Verdict: The Toyota Corolla rightfully has a reputation for being boring. However, the current 12th-generation model is also more stylish, technologically advanced, and rewarding to drive than previous Corollas. The new-for-2025 Corolla FX sedan demonstrates that with exclusive design details and sport-tuned steering and suspension. | |
Reviews SummaryWith nearly 10,000 Versas sold in the U.S. every month for the past half-decade, you’ve likely seen a few on the road. More likely, you’ve passed them. In order to infuse some hatchback heat into the brand, Nissan took its very successful Note from Asian markets and added the Versa name for U.S. shores. For 2015 it offers two new trims, the SR and SL, which add some sport pretensions and tech chops to the compact crossover. | |
