Slightly more expensive than the Corolla Sedan, the 2022 Toyota Corolla Hatchback is now available to configure from $20,915 for the SE trim with a six-speed manual transmission advertised by the automaker as the iMT.
Customers on a budget who prefer two pedals will have to settle for an electronically controlled continuously variable transmission that costs $900 more. XSE is the high-tier grade, which starts at $23,865 sans taxes for the row-your-own tranny and $24,965 for the CVT-equipped variant.

The SE Nightshade rounds off the list with a starting price of $22,915 and 18-inch wheels instead of the base 16s. Every trim comes with Toyota Safety Sense 2.0, a comprehensive suite of active safety and driver-assist systems. Highlights include Pre-Collision System with Pedestrian Detection, Dynamic Radar Cruise Control, Lane Departure Alert with Steering Assist, Lane Tracing Assist for CVT cars, and automatic high beams. In addition to the aforementioned, the XSE comes standard with blind-spot monitoring.

Finish Line Red is a brand-new premium color for 2022, joining seven other choices: White, Midnight Black Metallic, Classic Silver Metallic, Magnetic Gray Metallic, Wind Chill Pearl, Blue Flame, and Galactic Aqua Mica.

Backed up by a 36-month basic warranty plus additional 60-month warranties for the powertrain and corrosion, the Corolla Hatchback further boasts no-cost scheduled maintenance for two years or 25,000 miles (40,234 kilometers). In these two years, Toyota also sweetens the deal with roadside assistance. A one-year trial of Toyota Safety Connect with Automatic Collision Notification as well as Emergency Assistance is also included.

Based on the GA-C platform of the C-HR and Prius, the five-door hatch comes exclusively with the Dynamic-Force 2.0 engine. The naturally-aspirated mill combines direct injection with port injection, a high compression ratio, VVT-i on the exhaust side, and VVT-iE on the intake side for a thermal efficiency of 40 percent. In this application, the four-cylinder powerplant is estimated at 35 miles per gallon (6.7 l/100 km) combined for the SE CVT.
