How this compares

At 36 MPG combined, the 2019 Toyota Corolla Hatchback ranks 3rd of 20 compact cars EPA rated for 2019 — 6 MPG better than the 30 MPG median for that group.

That places it in the upper third of its class. Fuel cost is unlikely to be the deciding factor against its direct rivals.

EPA puts annual fuel spend at about $1,700, $375 less than the $2,075 typical for the class. Over five years at 15,000 miles a year that is roughly $8,500, a $1,875 difference against a class-median vehicle.

Tailpipe CO₂ is 249 grams per mile — about 3.7 metric tons over 15,000 miles of driving.

Consumer complaints

No owner complaints filed with NHTSA for this model year.

Nothing on file. Newer model years often have few complaints simply because fewer cars are on the road yet.
