Toyota Corolla
Toyota has a few changes in store for the Corolla and Corolla Hatchback for 2022. The list includes some new body colours, a Nightshade Edition replacing the Special Edition, and a new JBL audio system with eight speakers in the Corolla Hatchback XSE. Everything else is pretty much the same as before including the 1.8-litre and 2.0-litre engines producing 139 and 169 horsepower, respectively. The Corolla Hybrid is a more fuel-efficient alternative.
