Hey everyone! As some of you have already pointed out, the trim text at the beginning of the video is incorrect. *This is the XSE* and not the SE as written. Sorry for any confusion! Hope you all are staying home, staying safe and enjoying the Easter holiday the best you can!

I am SO HAPPY happy TOYOTA FINALLY got my EMAIL= NO SUNROOF:) FINALLY, no leaks, no squeaks, and VERY strong bracing and improved handling! FINALLY!

This actually looks better than the civic. Interior looks way better too.

This is a great car, though I wish the rear seats were a little roomier like the sedan.

I've been driving my Corolla HB XSE since the beginning of February. I purchase this car because: 1) I wanted a HB, 2) I wanted a car smaller than my Honda Accord, 3) I wanted a car that would be easy to park, 4) I was looking for decent fuel economy, and 5) I wanted Blind Spot Monitoring and not Lane Watch (which was what the Civic HB offered). After a couple of months with very limited driving, because of the Covid 19 virus, I would have to say that this car has for the most part met my expectations. I got used to the Heads-Up display on my Accord and this car does not offer it. It took me a while, but I figured out how to change my speedometer display from an analog look to a digital read-out and that has been a good enough compromise for me. I'm sure other people will think that was a terrible decision. Even though it's a HB, I would have preferred a dedicated back door release on the key fob and also inside of the car. Opening the rear door on first try has been quite hit and miss for my husband and me. The car is also lacking a small storage nook in the arm rest where you can stash coins, cough drops, etc. The center console storage is too far back for me to be comfortable to use. Plus, it doesn't have a top sliding shelf, where you can put small items. I also got used to that feature in my Accord. The bottom line, though, is that the car is lovely for what it is. I have zero regrets about buying it.

They need to bring the wagon version over from Europe, this rear seat is way too small especially the door opening at the bottom for your feet and legs.

From what I saw on my Toyota dealers website, this appears to be a better value than the sedan. Sure, you lose rear legroom but if you dont carry rear passengers alot the Hatchback is the go to.

omg this hatchback is dope!

This and the Mazda 3 hatchback are the best looking in its class but I think this looks a little bit better. I am considering the xse hatchback for my first car. I also love that you get full LED's. It's one of the few cars in this class that offer it

First Corolla I've ever wanted to buy! I can't believe all the features you get for the price. Unfortunately my Golf was totaled and I was considering another Golf but kinda didn't want to deal with more issues (had issues with sudden loss of power on occasion, electrical gremlins, etc). I love the Golf but am wanting something reliable, and what is more reliable than a Corolla? I've known people that had 500K miles on their old Corollas without any expensive repairs needed. Problem was that they are (or were) just... boring. Toyota is changing the game though! I love hatchbacks and am seriously considering this! You can't even get a base model Golf for the price of this and the Corolla has WAY more features! Plus the turbo in my old Golf, while fun, was a $2500 ticking time bomb just waiting to go off.

Great little hatch but no sun roof availability is no deal for me. The sedan has a sun roof so why not the hatch?

A very nice color combo. The Corolla XSE is best looking hatch in this class.

I love the 2020 Corolla hatchback! It’s very sexy and nice and a great price

Nice review as always! I've had an XSE hatchback since August 2018 and it's a nice daily driver. It handles well and gets good gas mileage. I'd love to see a turbo charged GR or TRD hatchback that can compete with the VW Golf GTI.

I love the hatchback, but the rear seat leg room sucks. I'll be going for the sedan version SE instead. Hopefully Toyota does a software update for Android Auto.

I drove a 2021 XSE the other day and I absolutely love it. I'll probably get one in about 3 months 😊👍

The smiles on your faces shows me that the hatch moves out

Great review guys. Love the look of the Corolla hatchback. Sporty and a bit aggressive looking. The interior in lighter colours looks superb. We get the 1.8 litre or 2.0 litre petrol hybrid model now in the UK. The saloon version looks very classy too :-)

Car & Driver has a written comparison test for hatchbacks. The Honda Civic won, and the Mazda3 was second. The Corolla got last place, after an Elantra and Golf.

I just drove a loaner 2020 Corolla SE CVT sedan and I have to say I wasn’t completely disappointed with the CVT but I don’t know that I would buy one. I’m an old drag racer so I’m very familiar with GM’s old 2 speed powerglide trans and it reminded me a lot of that ( except for the fake simulated part). My concern is how long will that CVT last. The rest of the car was pretty darn good when you consider that it’s a Corolla and the price. I’d buy the manual transmission SE hatchback

you guys do great reviews."fun to drive mentioned in car vids a lot" yea i will take it but sure don't need it as a buyer point for a compact anyway. i walk 4-6 mi twice a week a and beat to sh.. after. when driving happy as can be in most any car as in not walking .

I drove this. If it was a big bigger in the back and had a sunroof I would’ve bought it

You guys do a great job of bringing in a very comprehensive review of a car indeed!.. All the best 👍

I just test drove one yesterday! Great car! Still slow, though.

Great review love your videos

I really see the European influence in the Corolla Hatchback, the lighting on the gauges is flawless. I wonder if a red interior is offered for this car. I'm thinking that the gauge lighting and red color seats would look phenom.

Such a good looking interior with that white leather.

Wait, i thought xse do come in Manuel transmisiion?

I love your video so mush you help me to review a car

Corolla = Reliable and the new style is great

Which car is better, this Corolla or the Forte EX?

It is a sharp looking car.

How much it's?

show rear seats folded down. i want to see weekend cargo room

The rear space is too small for a hatchback! If Toyota can give it a little more power and more room on the next version, then I might switch from Honda.

Great review. Thanks for doing it.

Excellent review 👍

QUESTION ANSWERED: ...for your Toyota engineer question, I am not an engineer but the XSE model has 3 mpg lower than SE due to the 18” vs 16” and wider tires. Also, this particular model car is manufactured in Japan; not sure what you mean by saying it was brought over from Europe.

Howdy, great review as always! I love this car! Random fact, today is actually my birthday!😸

The infotainment screen looks very hideous

Best color for the hatchback by far & I think they discontinued it for 2021.

I like that, looks slightly like a crossover vehicle.

The next video can u do 2020 Prius vs insight

I have this same color but with the black roof!

Super confused because the SE and the XSE have like no differences besides the fog lights and some interior things here where I live. I bought a SE and it has everything mentioned in this video minus the fog lights ??? Edit I would also like to mention I wanted the SE but they didn’t carry an XSE manual where I live would have taken 12-18 months to get

I’d still rather get a Golf or Civic Hatch smh. Great video though!!!!

Comparison to competitors? Mazda 3, Civic?

Can you please review Land Rover car please I love to see you review

I have a 1997 Toyota Corella

The car is good but just too small

I'd take the 2020 Civic hatchback

Are these actual DRL's ? Or are they the din DRLs on the sedan se edition where it's only visible at night ?

Please review the E Class Coupe!

Is this the top model of corolla?

What is the name of the exterior color

So no more CD player? :/

The tires and rims effect fuel economy

Review 2020 Nissan sentra

does it come with intelligent parking assist?

finally!!!

Hold Up You said this was the SE..

First comment.

Where is the wireless charging? XSE's come with it!

168 plus the electric engine wich have some 20hk i think

The more I see this car the more reminds me the old version Mazda3 from 2012 or 2013 who agrees with me? If this is true, its lame toyota made a 2020 bases on a 2012 platform

Nice NMDs

Finally! All those crappy drivers can now drive a nice looking corolla.

Love the fake duel exhaust, great for picking up chicks

weird 19:31

terrible car, as all asian cars.. I recommend a Renault instead, I drive a Renault now since two years and the the Renault clio is the most sold car here in europe. Wonderful cars, Renault. Also Volkswagen is top notch, the Golf is the secondmost popular car here in sweden, also a wonderful car!
