Performance Specs and Fuel Economy

Toyota of Decatur customers will be able to choose between two powertrain options, depending on which of the sedan’s five trim grades they decide to take home. The L, LE and XLE models employ a 1.8-liter, four-cylinder engine attached to a continuously variable transmission. It will make 139 horsepower and 126 pound-feet of torque. All three trims can record about 30 miles per gallon in the city and around 38 miles per gallon on the highway. SE and XSE trims use a 2.0-liter, four-cylinder engine making 169 horsepower and 151 pound-feet of torque. Buyers choosing either trim will post up to 31 mpg in the city and as much as 40 mpg on the highway. The difference comes down to choosing either the CVT or available six-speed manual transmission. Owners of the 2020 Honda Civic will also have a couple of engine options to choose from. Those powertrains also offer a choice of transmissions which will help them produce slightly more performance than what is available with the 2020 Corolla. However, the Toyota compact sedan is more than able to hold its own on the fuel economy front.
