2019 Toyota Camry vs. 2020 Toyota Corolla

If you’re on the hunt for a new sedan, both the 2019 Toyota Camry and the 2020 Toyota Corolla are exceptionally compelling options. However, since the former is a midsize car and the latter is a compact car, there’s a good chance that one or the other is better suited to your daily drives. Compare the Toyota Camry vs. Toyota Corolla with Westbrook Toyota to find the model that’s right for you. To help you get started, we’ve listed a few key similarities and differences between Camry and Corolla:

• The Camry configurations have higher starting prices.
• The Camry comes standard with a stronger engine, and it offers an even more powerful V6, too. However, the 2020 Corolla is even more efficient than it was in 2019.
• In terms of available cargo space, the Camry comes out well ahead.

The 2019 Camry includes Toyota Safety Sense™ P (TSS P), while the 2020 Corolla comes standard with Toyota Safety Sense™ 2.0 (TSS 2.0).

Performance and Efficiency

The 2019 Toyota Corolla is available with a four-cylinder or a six-cylinder engine, while the Corolla is offered with two different four-cylinder options. The Corolla is always the more efficient option for city driving, but the heavier Camry tends to do a little better on the highway. Compare their engine specs in detail, here:

• 2019 Toyota Camry
  • The 2.5L 4-Cylinder starting option provides 203 hp and 184 lb-ft of torque. In most configurations, this trim provides fuel economy of 29 mpg city, 41 mpg highway.
  • The larger 3.5L V6 is the most powerful option in this comparison. It generates 301 hp and 267 lb-ft of torque, while offering 22 mpg city and 32 mpg highway**.

• 2020 Toyota Corolla
  • With a 1.8L 4-Cylinder engine, the Corolla gets 139 hp and generates 126 lb-ft of torque. It offers fuel economy of 30 mpg city, 38 mpg highway.
  • With the new 2.0L 4-Cylinder engine, the Corolla delivers 169 hp and 151 lb-ft of torque. With a continuously variable transmission, the XSE trim gets 31 mpg city and 40 mpg highway**.

In the past, drivers who wanted to own a Hybrid would have had to choose the Camry over the Corolla. This all changes with the new year, which introduces the first Corolla Hybrid ever!

Choosing the Right Interior for Your Drives

If you’re looking for a difference between Camry and Corolla, size is one place to start. Although the Corolla is significantly smaller than the Camry, each of these sedans does something well with their interior. You’ll have to decide which one is better suited to your needs. Compare their dimensions in-depth:

• 2019 Toyota Camry L
  • Passenger Volume: 100.4 cubic feet
  • Cargo Room: 14.1 cubic feet in the base trim, 15.1 cubic feet in every other
  • Legroom (Front/Rear): 42.1 inches/38 inches
  • Shoulder Room (Front/Rear): 57.7 inches/55.7 inches
  • Hip Room (Front/Rear): 55.4 inches/54.7 inches

• 2020 Toyota Corolla L
  • Passenger Volume: 88.6 cubic feet
  • Cargo Room: 13 cubic feet
  • Legroom (Front/Rear): 42.3 inches/41.4 inches
  • Shoulder Room (Front/Rear): 54.8 inches/54.8 inches
  • Hip Room (Front/Rear): 53 inches/43.9 inches

A significantly larger cabin, along with a much more spacious trunk, make the Camry a smart choice for growing families. However, since the Corolla actually offers more rear legroom than the Camry, it still might be the better option for you!
