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 SummaryThe 2015 Ford Fiesta is just a year into a styling nip and tuck that gave the compact hatchback and sedan a trapezoidal grille and revised rear fascia, plus the arrival of an EcoBoost model. The Fiesta came to the U.S. for 2010, plucked from the global Ford lineup. The swept-back headlamps and cleanly creased bodysides are finally starting to fit in with the rest of the U.S. Ford lineup as other models get restyled with a new worldwide focus. | |
