FAST FACTS
"If you haven't thought about Corollas in a while, you might be surprised by how sporty the current Corolla hatchback looks and feels. Unfortunately, its styling writes a check that its powertrain can't cash — sluggish acceleration is one of our primary reservations about this model. The other notable concern is interior space: even though hatchbacks tend to be more versatile than their sedan counterparts, the Corolla Hatchback actually has less rear legroom than its sedan counterpart, which is already challenged in that area. You might be willing to accept that downgrade in return for the Hatchback's liftback trunk and foldable rear seatbacks, but it's an unusual tradeoff. Overall, the Corolla Hatchback's strong fuel economy and robust resale value make it a sensible choice, but its limitations are clear."—Ranked #6 out of 6 Compact Hatchbacks
