History Highlights of the Toyota Corolla

An icon among compact cars, the Corolla debuted in North America in 1974. This humble car offered a 1.1L 4-cylinder engine with 60 horsepower. From there, the Corolla spent several years carving out a niche with its superb fuel efficiency and budget-friendliness, appealing to many car buyers who were seeking a reliable, economical, and relatively barebones vehicle for daily transportation.

The Corolla never stopped changing, though. The following years brought a host of updates and improvements, with more and better features, amenities, and performance boosters enhancing the Corolla and drawing more happy fans with each successive model year.

Today’s Corolla models are a far cry from their earliest ancestors, with sporty style and a wealth of tech features and comfort amenities. But one thing that has never changed is the Corolla’s overall quality, which keeps it firmly planted among the best compact cars on the road.
