2014 Toyota Corolla order guide leaked
Fri, 10 May 2013
The 2014 Toyota Corolla arrives in dealerships later this year, but some bits of information about the big seller have leaked through a Kansas dealer to Car and Driver.
The Corolla will stick with a 1.8-liter, four-cylinder engine, but will add Toyota's Valvematic variable valve timing, which may add a few ponies. A four-speed automatic will be standard on base models, while a six-speed manual will also be offered, replacing the old five-speed . Higher-priced trims will use a CVT.
Styling, according to C&D, will be a cross between the angular Furia concept we saw at the Detroit auto show and the mundane Camry. The dealer also says that the interior will receive a handful of welcome upgrades.
Four trim levels will be offered: base, LE, S and Eco. We assume some sort of hybrid model is in the cards, and fuel economy will probably grow.
The current Corolla makes 132 hp from a 1.8-liter and costs $17,025, including destination.
