Exterior Design
Stylish & Athletic Design
The Corolla in 2021 delivers a stylish and sporty exterior, bred from its low centre of gravity and solidly planted stance. It’s led ahead by its honeycomb grille and flanked by bi-beam J-shaped headlights that further accentuate its bold status. Framing the entire athletic sedan are the wheels that cut a wide and powerful stance, ready to unleash power at any given moment.
Performance S Line
Want the ultimate in sport style out of your Corolla? The base L and LE trims of the Corolla may still be sporty and peppy all by themselves, but for those who want even more of a performance focus, the SE and XSE trims exist to satiate those with a racetrack hunger. These trims are further defined by their 18-inch aluminum-alloy wheels and broader honeycomb grille that further highlights the Corolla’s sport features and stance. Triple J-shaped headlights at the front and a rear lip spoiler and dual lip exhaust at the rear provide even more high-level sporty design elements.
Apex & Nightshade Edition
Bring your Corolla to its own unique level through either of these special editions. The 2021 Apex Edition upgrades the SE with a body kit, 18-inch black flow-formed aluminum wheels, black rear spoiler and badging. Another edition that highlights the dark side of the Corolla is the Nightshade Edition, with black features including 18-inch alloy wheels, mirror caps, front/rear spoilers, badging and much more.

What’s Changed From the 2020 Toyota Corolla?
Advancing from the 2019 model to the 2020 model last year saw a big redesign, so this year things are a bit more subtle on this still freshly new Corolla. It saw a whole new styled look, but still maintained all of the comfort, tech and safety you expect in a Toyota. 2021 sees the introduction of the limited Apex Edition, for one-of-a-kind unique Corolla styling and with an upgraded suspension. Inside, Android Auto is standard, while the airbag system has improved from 8 to 10. Still advancing after all these years, the Corolla continues to reinvent itself and double-down on its decades-long feature highlights.
