Explore the 2020 Toyota Corolla Performance


A Fun, Powerful Vehicle

The 2020 Toyota Corolla is turning heads for its styling and tech features, but it is also a powerful performance car. Here our Toyota dealership in Atlanta, GA, we’re happy to say this vehicle has plenty to offer today’s driver who is looking for some fun on the road. It has more power than previous models but also packs a significant amount of features that make driving effortless. But let’s set aside the tech for a moment, and instead focus on what’s under the hood of the 2020 Toyota Corolla.

Engine Options

The 2020 Toyota Corolla has three engine types. The base model of the 2020 Toyota Corolla offers a 1.8L 4-Cylinder DOHC 160-valve engine. For even more power, check out the 2.0L Dynamic Force Engine that is available on the 2020 Toyota Corolla SE. It provides drivers with 169 horsepower at 6,600 rpm and 151 lb-t of torque at 4,400 rpm. Pair it with the available Dynamic-Shift CVT and when you step on the gas, you’ll get a near-immediate response from the vehicle when it pushes the traditional fixed first gear to move. It also has the same efficiency as a continuously variable transmission (CVT). The 2020 Toyota Corolla SE gets an EPA-estimated 31 mpg city and 40 mpg highway, even with a more powerful engine than other vehicles in its class.

Intelligent Manual Transmission

The 2020 Toyota Corolla also features available 6-speed Intelligent Manual Transmission (iMT). It features close-ratio gears down low. For those behind the wheel accelerating, the 2020 Corolla gets a nice bit of punch from this transmission compared to what they may get in a traditional model. There are also taller gears up top. These help to support the vehicle’s improved fuel efficiency when you are driving.

Another nice benefit to drivers of the 2020 Toyota Corolla with this transmission is that it has an intelligent rev-matching feature. When downshifting, this helps to reduce the amount of transmission shock that occurs, creating a smoother, easier process.

Mounted Paddle Shifters

The available mounted paddle shifters are another nice upgrade option for the 2020 Toyota Corolla. These help the driver shift gears without actually removing their hands from the wheel. As a result, you can keep both hands in place while making changes. It just takes a slight touch of the lever (one is located on each side) to change gears. It is very quick, too, giving the driver the get-up-and-go they desire.

Sport Mode

For those still looking for excitement, check out the 2020 Toyota Corolla Sport Mode. This is an available feature. A small sport button is placed on the console. When pressed, the engine control unit and simulated shift points change up the gameplay. As a result, there is more ability to maneuver and have some fun with the car.

All of these fun features are available at World Toyota in Atlanta. Take the time to schedule a test-drive with us today to check out how they really feel.
