How the 2013 Toyota Corolla Compares With Toyota’s Lineup

Pricing, power, efficiency, towing, drivetrain, and fuel type help separate the Corolla from other Toyota models in the same size class. The 2013 Toyota Corolla starts at $16,230; MSRP excludes tax, title, registration and dealer fees.

Both use front-wheel drive and regular unleaded fuel, making the Corolla a fit for shoppers focused on a lower entry price, while the Camry’s broader power range suits buyers seeking more available power.

The 2013 Toyota Camry Hybrid starts at $26,140 and produces 200 hp, compared with the Corolla’s $16,230 starting MSRP and 132 hp. Its EPA economy figures of 40–43 city / 38–39 hwy favor shoppers prioritizing hybrid efficiency, while the Corolla offers a conventional gasoline configuration with front-wheel drive.

The Avalon lists 21 city / 31 hwy EPA MPG and a 1,000-lb maximum towing capacity, so its figures suit buyers considering more power and towing capability, while the Corolla favors a lower-priced sedan choice.
