Every Angle of the 2020 Toyota Corolla Sedan

L, LE, and XLE versions of the new Corolla sedan use a carryover 1.8-liter four-cylinder that makes 139 horsepower and 126 lb-ft of torque. But the more interesting story under the hood is the optional 2.0-liter four-cylinder that ups output significantly to 169 hp and 151 lb-ft of torque.

A continuously variable automatic transmission (CVT) will be standard, with a six-speed manual transmission with rev-matching capability available on the SE with the 2.0-liter engine.

Its wheelbase is the same as before, but the track is wider and the suspension arrangement is new and significantly more sophisticated.

Blind-spot monitoring will be optional.

Inside, the Corolla sedan's cabin mostly mimics the Corolla hatchback's, which is a good thing given that car's uptick in material quality and design.

Expect pricing to mostly hold the line compared to today's Corolla, with the base L starting around $20,000 and better-equipped trim levels pushing past $25,000.

As with the outgoing Corolla, several active-safety features standard across the lineup, including adaptive cruise control, forward-collision warning, lane-keeping assist, and automated emergency braking.

The base L model has a 7.0-inch touchscreen display, but all other trims get an 8.0-inch touchscreen with Toyota's Entune infotainment system that includes Apple CarPlay (Android Auto is not on the menu, unfortunately).

Two-tone leather upholstery will be optional, as pictured here, with a few different color combinations.

The 2020 Corolla will start arriving at dealerships in spring 2019.
