Toyota Corolla MPG

MPG Quick Facts:

The Toyota Corolla has three different engine options across all of its trims. Two of them are gas-powered, and one of them is a hybrid gas engine. The first engine is a 1.8L 4-cylinder that puts out 139 horsepower and 126 lb-ft of torque. Check out the chart for a look at this engine’s MPG.

The second engine is a little more powerful than the first. The 2.0L 4-cylinder puts out 169 horsepower and 151 lb-ft of torque. While this engine is more powerful, you don’t have to worry about less fuel economy when you drive.

The third engine is a hybrid one and the most fuel-efficient of the three. The 1.8L 4-cylinder hybrid offers 121 horsepower and 105 lb-ft of torque.

Drivetrain and Transmission

Front-wheel drive is standard on all trims of the Toyota Corolla, including the hybrid engine option. The transmissions across the engine options differ slightly, though.

The 2.0L 4-cylinder engine is paired with a standard Dynamic-Shift Continuously Variable Transmission, which focuses on fuel economy and performance. However, if you love the feel and control of a manual transmission, this engine also has an available 6-speed manual.

If you opt for the 1.8L non-hybrid engine, it will be paired with a Continuously Variable Transmission. The hybrid engine is paired with a similar but electronic version called Electronically controlled Continuously Variable Transmission.

Toyota Corolla Fuel Economy Tips

In addition to having a vehicle with a fuel-efficient engine, there are a few things you can do to spend less time at the gas station. We have put together a few tips for driving more efficiently in your 2021 Corolla.

Some of these tips are…

• Follow the speed limit: The faster you drive, the more gas you use. By following the speed limit, you not only drive safer, but save a bit of fuel on long trips, as well.
• Take extra weight out of your vehicle: The more weight of random items in your car, the more gas it takes for your car to get up to speed. By taking out the extra things in your vehicle, you’ll save some gas.
• Avoid idling: When your car idles, the engine is still running and still using gas. Turn the engine off while you wait.
• Use cruise control: Cruise control helps your automobile maintain one steady speed. By staying at one speed, you’ll use less gas than if frequently accelerating.
