2009 Toyota Corolla SEL Sport Utility 4D

Our 2009 Corolla XLE sedan rightly appeals to buyers both young and old looking for a reliable compact sedan. It delivers dependability, a quality build, and top-notch fuel economy, all backed by Toyota’s solid reputation. Reviewers and owners mention the roomy interior of the ’09 Corolla, which adds 2.5 inches in width and a half-inch in length. Seating four, the compact sedan feels more open than the Civic and offers better visibility than previous years. Rear passengers get 36 inches of legroom, compared to 41 inches up front, and test drives praise the seat comfort in both rows. Those looking for power accessories will prefer the XLE trim. A strong safety record remains one of the primary reasons buyers gravitate toward Toyota in general and the Corolla in particular. In crash tests, the ’09 Corolla should only improve on its four- and five-star scores from previous years, thanks to the addition of standard ABS brake for all trims. Standard are dual front-side, side impact, and side curtain airbags for both rows, with active head restraints that feature improved whiplash protection. This car fills its role well as a solid and dependable economy compact that continues to appeal to a wide demographic. You need to take this one for a spin. Bet’s on that you will enjoy the ride.
