Fresh off of last year's redesign, the Toyota Corolla marches forward as one of the best-selling entry-level sedans around. The compact Corolla offers upgraded in-car technology, conservative styling, and excellent fuel efficiency, thanks to the availability of a continuously-variable automatic transmission that can be paired with its 140-hp 1.8-litre four-cylinder engine. A slightly less mighty version of this engine is also available with a six-speed manual or four-speed automatic gearbox.
