TOYOTA COROLLA TOURING SPORTS 1.8

-

FOR Comfier than the hatch, impressive fuel economy AGAINST A complete fun sponge, unrefined CVT

The Corolla Touring Sports has good passenger space, a big boot, solid interior and a comfy ride. We even beat the claimed 57.6mpg, and the ‘Smart Connect’ touchscree­n is leagues better than the old ‘Touch 2’ system. But drive and handling are bland beyond belief, and there’s nothing like a noisy CVT to discourage you from being in a hurry. The lack of poke is annoying, so opt for the 2.0-litre instead. You’ll still be bored. But at least you won’t be fashionabl­y late.
