The 2020 Toyota Corolla Altis Hybrid is here to redefine the midsize sedan segment. With a hybrid engine that combines gasoline and electricity, the model promises to be the best Corolla ever. But is it really all that? We evaluated the car in detail to find out.
The highlight of the 2020 Toyota Corolla Altis Hybrid is, without a doubt, the hybrid system. It combines a 1.8 flex engine with 101 hp (ethanol) or 98 hp (gasoline) with two electric motors, which together deliver 122 hp. Although the performance is not sporty, the Corolla's consumption is a spectacle in itself: up to 19,5 km/l in the city and 15 km/l on the highway, using gasoline. This number surprises even more in urban stop-and-go driving, where the electric motor comes into action, saving fuel.
Toyota First Class Comfort
With a total focus on comfort, the 2020 Toyota Corolla Altis Hybrid shines in details such as acoustic insulation, refined finish with soft touch, sunroof, dual-zone digital air conditioning and extremely comfortable seats. Onboard technology includes adaptive cruise control, emergency braking and lane keeping alert. It is a sedan that prioritizes the well-being of its occupants, especially on long trips.
The hybrid Corolla's appearance is not intended to attract attention, but displays a discreet elegance. Details such as the blue outline on the emblem reveal the hybrid technology. The 470-liter trunk is practical, but suffers from intrusive hinges, a weak point in a car of this category.

equipment and technology
The 2020 Toyota Corolla Altis Hybrid comes well-equipped, with features such as a multimedia center compatible with Android Auto and Apple CarPlay, electric adjustment on the driver's seat and seven airbags. However, it lacks details such as air conditioning vents for the rear seat, which could further enhance the experience.
Worth it?
At R$125, the 2020 Toyota Corolla Altis Hybrid isn't cheap, but it delivers technology, fuel economy, and comfort that justify the price when compared to competitors like the Civic and Cruze. It's an ideal car for those looking for efficiency and peace of mind in their daily lives.
If sporty performance is your priority, the Civic may be more appealing. But if what you're looking for is comfort and economy, the Corolla hybrid is the right choice.
The Corolla's comfort and consumption make it a leader in the segment, but the price and the lack of some items make it far from perfect.
For those who like a car that is lame on the road, with the performance of a 1.0 8-valve gasoline engine, it is a great choice.
