When will 2011 Corolla will show up?
-
Wow!
After considering the '11 Corolla "S" for purchase, and reading the latest posts here concerning Toyota's eliminating certain features once available, I'm afraid this machine is OFF my small list of new vehicles to check out. Wotta pity. Toyota sure has blown it, BIG time, with the 2011 Corolla. Peace!<-AladdinSane<- -

Re: 2011 Corolla Automatic ON/OFF Headlights? [radiozener]
So you bought this new car sight unseen ? ? ? I guess I would ask why the big rush ? Now your stuck with it! I gotta tell ya though, I'm a very big Toyota fan, (as everyone on this site would attest to), but if I were in the market for another car I would steer away from the new Corolla also as I, like you, would definitely miss ...

Re: 2011 Corolla Automatic ON/OFF Headlights? [radiozener]
Yes, I completely agree with you on everything you've mentioned! I too would be disappointed knowing I purchased a new car with "expected" features found in last year's model! I can't figure out why Toyota is making these poor decisions by cutting costs (eliminating once common, practical standard features as found in last model year) thinking customers aren't going to notice these obvious details. In my opinion, the 2011 Corolla is ... Read More
Toyota Corolla Electric-Assist Power Steering (EPS)
-
Re: The truth [bleschber]
The 2011 Toyota Corolla uses variable assist column mounted electric steering. It has not changed. Same lousy subpar handling. Wobbly loose steering at all speeds and the inability to maneuver the car adequately. Truly an unbelievable joke of a car.

Re: 2009 Toyota Corolla Steering Problem EPS [wishin_4a_ford]
To my prior post of why i walked away from 2011 Corolla because of unsafe steering. I did get a great buy on 2008 Corolla CE; The steering and handling is superb and safe. Strangely enough, the manager of the dealership did not admit there was an issue; his response was - I have never heard of any issue regarding steering. Not just 1 but 2 dealerships said the same; 1 ... Read More

Re: The truth [bleschber]
Whether or not I was wrong on the Hyundai doesnt really matter. As far as the 2011 Corolla is concerned I have yet to find out. I figured your company would eventually have to switch from the extremely poor performing column type EPS that a a great many people got stuck with. A lot of people got screwed with really lousy subpar handling cars. It remains to be seen whether the ... Read More

Re: The truth [biffpreston1]
biffpreston1, I'm not sure what grade your English professor gave you on your research project, but I hope it wasn't an "A". You have hurt the quality of this discussion forum by spreading inaccurate information about the 2010 & 2011 Toyota Corolla Electronic Power Steering systems. I'd like to set the record straight for everyone reading here, because better understanding the new EPS systems in the new cars is important. I ... Read More

I recommend 2011 Toyota Corolla S
I recommend 2011 Toyota Corolla S. It is an excellent choice of contemporary vehicle......and I am not Toyota employee :) I have had a chance to drive for some time new 2004 Toyota RAV4, 2005 Solara, 2009 Matrix, 2010 Prius and now 2011 Corolla in the past several years, and I can say that 2011 Toyota Corolla is a very good ride. In addition, I like the refreshed styling of the ... Read More

2011 Corolla - Worst ever (DO NOT BUY RECOMMENDATION)

I walked away from a great deal on the following reason. The steering is completely useless. It is unsafe and dangerous to drive. Yes at low speeds i am not concerned, At higher ... Read More

Re: 2012 Corolla [dchev]
It is expected that 2012 Corollas will begin production in November 2011. This is most likely due to the new Mississippi plant not being ready until later this year. This production timeline for Toyota is very accurate and a pretty good predicition of when we see models appearing: http://phharval.com/home/news-and-media/motor-news/929-toyota-updates-build-out-- dates-for-2011-models-and-start-up-dates-for-2012-models

Re: 2012 Corolla [dchev]
I test drove the 2011 Corolla and hated it so I just bought a 2011 Fiesta SES. For the same money I got leather, heated seats, Sync, satellite radio, push button start, Dual clutch automated 6 speed transmission and it is rated way better than the Corolla. I just traded my last Toyota in for it so hey Toyota are you listening? Take your 4 speed transmission Model T and re-design ... Read More

Re: 2012 Corolla [echo2001]
You might not be right about that! Toyota changes the design of its cars on the second year after refresh, so I believe they will have 2012 Toyota Corolla in August 2011, and later on introduce completely new design 2013 Toyota Corolla in January-April 2012. This is just a guess; however, they have to do it, if they want to be competitive to new Focus, Elantra, Civic....

Re: Quotes for 2010 LE [hottrax]
It seems the 2010 Corolla inventory ran out in some places more rapidly than others. In Columbus, OH area, Tansky has 71, Germain has 24, Toyota West have 18 and Toyota direct has 15: that is 128 even without counting the independent dealers! I guess anyone looking for 2010 models still should look into nearby city inventories, or may be even the state next door, since 2010 models have much bigger ... Read More

Re: Quotes for 2010 LE [jackizme]
The dealership where I bought my 2010 Corolla S ($14150 invoice) no longer has any 2010. I just checked their internet inventory. I bought mine more than two weeks ago and at that time they still have a few left. In fact, just last week, they still listed two S with tinted windows for $14588. They are listing now a manager's special for 2010 LE at $13,488. http://www.miltonruben.com/Toyota%20Specials.html They are listing ... Read More

2012 Corolla
Similar to the 2011 Corolla being produced much later than usual (Dec. 2010) it is expected that the 2012 Corolla will begin production in November 2011. I know it is quite early and the 2011s were recently released, but I am wondering what Toyota has in store for the 2012 Corolla and when the 11th generation will officially debut. There are rumors on sites as late as 2014. Will the current ... Read More

Re: 2011 Corolla Automatic ON/OFF Headlights? [dchev]
Thank you for your in depth reply about your new Corolla and congratulations with your purchase! Don't get me wrong, I really like the Corolla. I just contacted Toyota and chatted with a product specialist who confirmed the auto on/off headlights are completely discontinued across the Corolla lineup. In my 04 Corolla, I LOVED this feature. It too had DRL, but I just liked not having to ever tinker with lights ... Read More

Re: 2011 Corolla Automatic ON/OFF Headlights? [ntassistant]
I just purchased 2011 Corolla S and I love it so far! Yes, there is no auto on/off headlights; however, there are so many more things that Toyota has upgraded to 2011. For instance: -power steering is EPS rack and pinion, so it is pleasure to drive it. -cabin is very quiet. -ride is excellent. -auto transmission is smooth (it is still 4 speed; however, it is smooth and gas millage ...

Re: 2011 Corolla Automatic ON/OFF Headlights? [dchev]
Thank you for your reply. You're right, auto on/off headlights have been eliminated across the Corolla lineup. But yet the housing for the sensor is fitted on the dashboards. Toyota's marketing division must have decided last minute to save money and eliminate this feature to save them "big" money! I really don't know what Toyota is thinking these days. Just a continuous pattern of them cutting costs (eliminating once standard equipment) ... Read More

Re: 2011 Corolla Automatic ON/OFF Headlights? [ntassistant]
2011 Toyota Corolla S does not have auto on/off headlights. LE might have them....but I doubt it. I agree with you that they should have them not only on Corolla, but also on all other Toyotas.... If this makes you happy, the 2010-11 Prius does not have them either....

2011 Corolla Automatic ON/OFF Headlights?
Does anyone know if the automatic on/off headlights are still standard on the 2011 Corolla? I know they come with daytime running lights that turn on automatically regardless of whether it's light out or not. For 2010 Corollas and earlier years dating back to 2003, there used to be a small black light sensor located on the dashboard next to the vent for the defroster. I was looking at the 2011s ...

Re: 2007 Santa Fe vs. 2010 Corolla Steering [shouravv]

Re: 2010 Toyota Corolla LE [dinod]
I am a bit confused about the actual price that you paid before taxes and license. Did you pay $13,200 for the car plus 599 doc fee for a total of $13,800 or 13,800 plus 599 for a total of $14,400 before taxes and license? Which number, $13,800 or $14,400? Furthermore, $13,800 is less than $15,500 so why should you wait longer to pay $15,500 if you could pay $13,800 today? ... Read More

More 2011 Information

Re: Only 3 models? [samnoe]

Re: Only 3 models? [ntassistant]
"... In my honest opinion, I don't think Toyota is going to be doing any big improvements for the 2011 Corolla..." What makes you think so? How else can you explain the unusual delayed arrival of the 2011 models, which should've gone on sale on Feb. 2010 (like Toyota does with most other models)? Toyota is definitely doing a lot of things wrong lately. No question about it, and no matter ... Read More

Exciting
Most folks don't buy a Corolla for any kind of driving excitement...rather for the reliability and fuel numbers. Fun isn't a variable when describing this car.

Prefer the looks of my '06 Civic LX better but one ... Read More

2011 Corolla Information
I came across some information regarding the 2011 Corolla. It seems as though Toyota is going to discontinue production of the XLE and XRS models for 2011.

Sandy Beach replaces the Desert Sand and Nautical Blue replaces the Blue Streak. Supposedly no green color will ... Read More

Re: 2011 Corolla [samnoe]
You said a mouthful and are so correct! I could not agree any more with your speculations about the 2011 Corolla. Toyota definitely has some "house cleaning" to do with the current generation Corolla. Both mechanically and cosmetic for that matter. This explains the delay of the 2011 model year production. Production of 2011s are to begin this November and the cars should show up at dealerships in December or January. ... Read More

Re: 2011 Corolla [fredvh]
You have a 2006 and you are pleased - that's correct. Models prior to 2009 were much better than current models. Toyota does not reveal anything about the 2011's, but there will most probably be more than just "some minor cosmetic changes". We can be assured that they will improve the interior quality, improve steering feel, and some more issues that so many drivers are complaining about. As of now, the ... Read More

"Better keep your 2010 than, as the 2011 Camry has it as well as almost all other new cars." Toyota's website shows the 2011 Camry to have "Variable-assist power rack-and-pinion". No mention of EPS except for the hybrid. I know EPS is probably coming to most all new cars in the future. Hopefully it will be improved considerably by the time I need another new car.

Not that this information is 100% accurate, but it does look like Toyota is delaying the release of the 2011 Corolla until December.

Re: 2011 Corolla sold in Brazil [terceltom]
So far what I've researched, the only POSSIBLE changes for 2011 include a standard USB for iPod, and a new 5-speed automatic transmission (on all models other than the XRS) to increase fuel economy. Obviously there are no guarantees we'll see these changes for 2011, but it would be wise for Toyota to implement them at this time, especially to compete with other cars in this class.

Re: 2011 Corolla [terceltom]
You raise a very good point and I completely agree with you. I think Toyota is very concerned about the so called steering issues with the Corolla.

Obviously there isn't a recall for this issue that owners complain about with the "wandering" of the vehicle while driving. I still assume (if the 2011 Corolla comes out ... Read More

Re: 2011 Corolla [samnoe]
The 2010 Corolla is a new design. If there are any issues, Toyota will correct them. Recalls are very common and essential to maintain quality standards. Things go wrong with machines.

Re: EPS - why such a difference in opinions? [samnoe]
It's definitely a problem with the Corolla (and yes, the problem carried over to the 2010 models. (For some reason Toyota changes model years in February before). I believe Toyota will fix the steering on 2011. I don't believe it is a "problem" and I don't agree that it needs "fixing" I'm sure the steering is pleasurably responsive by design. Perhaps you just can't adjust to such responsive steering. I think ... Read More

Re: EPS - why such a difference in opinions?
Well, as I pointed out before, many cars are switching to EPS, for example the 2010 Ford Fusion, and the steering is rated as very good in most opinions (only here on Edmunds they say that the non-ESP models feel better).

I've seen all the other complaints that you listed above on Carspace and other forums, but the big one is the clock. I ... Read More

What Toyota could do is......
Have the new xD engine as the standard engine in the CE and S. Then make the new 2.0 optional in the S, and standard in the LE, adding another 20HP or so. Then make the 2.0 standard for all Corollas in 2011. That should bolster the lineup. Toyota wouldn't do that, doh. :( DrFill
