There are many good reasons why drivers have made the Canadian-built Toyota Corolla one of the country's best-selling passenger cars - not least of which is an impressive list of more than 100 improvements on the current, 10th generation model, which the Automobile Journalists Association of Canada named its 2009 Best New Small Car under $18,000, and one of three finalists for AJAC's Canadian Car of the Year.

"The Corolla brand is synonymous with Toyota's reputation for reliability and value, in a versatile and fuel efficient vehicle that's fun-to-drive. For the 2010 model year, Toyota includes additional safety features as standard equipment on more trim levels, and new options packages that add comfort, style and convenience to the Corolla's sterling reputation for quality, durability and reliability," said Warren Orton, Director of Toyota Canada Inc. "With suggested prices starting from $15,160, leasing and financing options from Toyota Financial Services and a proven record of high resale value, there's never been a better time to buy a Toyota Corolla."

Regardless of trim level and options, all 2010 Toyota Corolla models are built in Cambridge, Ontario and designed for Canadian driving, delivering performance, value and plenty of features and amenities that drivers typically expect only on larger, more expensive vehicles. New for the 2010 model year, the Corolla S and Corolla LE models join the Corolla XRS in featuring Toyota's Vehicle Stability Control (VSC) technology as standard equipment. VSC is also available on Corolla CE models equipped with the Enhanced Convenience Package. The Corolla S and Corolla XRS may also be ordered with a new Leather Package, while a new Moon Roof and Navigation Package is available for the Corolla LE.

The 2010 Toyota Corolla is now on sale across Canada. The Corolla CE carries a manufacturer's suggested retail price starting at $15,160. The Corolla S starts at a suggested price of $19,985, the Corolla LE starts at a suggested price of $20,865, and the Corolla XRS starts at a suggested price of $22,250.
