Is the 2022 Toyota Corolla a good car?

Generally — 4.17/5 from owners and 7.17/10 from our experts. The standout strength is Safety at 9/10.

Owners consistently praise its dependable design, practicality, and value for money, and many also like the feature set. The Corolla’s broad use-case appeal comes from its sedan and hatchback body styles, manual and automatic transmissions, and multiple powertrain options, including a hybrid. The main trade-offs are outdated technology, a potentially polarizing design, and sluggish performance. Even so, it remains a sensible compact car for you if you want familiar strengths and broad choice. With 28.7% of listings marked as good or great deals, there’s still decent market flexibility.

Is the 2022 Toyota Corolla reliable?

Owners rate it 4.17/5, a solid signal of long-term satisfaction.

The owner feedback points to a dependable, practical car that many people feel good about keeping for the long haul. The expert assessment also describes it as a reliable and sensible compact car, and the cost-effectiveness notes reinforce that it’s a good all-rounder with low-stress ownership appeal. Toyota’s three-year, 60,000-kilometre basic warranty and five-year, 100,000-kilometre powertrain warranty add some reassurance, but used buyers should still watch for signs of wear on higher-mileage examples and confirm maintenance history.

What should I look for when buying a used 2022 Toyota Corolla?

Key things to evaluate:

• Trim level: The Corolla’s styling changes by trim, with the SE and XSE getting a more aggressive front fascia, the Nightshade Edition adding blacked-out trim, and the Apex Edition adding a subtle body kit with model-specific 18-inch wheels. Base trims are simpler inside and out, and cloth upholstery is standard, with SofTex leatherette available on some trim levels.
• Powertrain: You get a 1.8-litre four-cylinder in the L, LE, and XLE, while the SE, XSE, and Apex Edition use a 2.0-litre four-cylinder. The base L can be paired with a six-speed manual, and the 2.0-litre engine can also be had with a six-speed manual or CVT.
• Safety package: Toyota Safety Sense 2.0 includes forward collision warning, automatic emergency braking, lane-departure warning with steering assist, automatic high beams, Lane Tracing Assist, adaptive cruise control, and traffic-sign recognition. Blind-spot monitoring with rear cross-traffic alert is standard from the Corolla LE.
• Infotainment: The base L gets a 7-inch touchscreen, while other trims get an 8-inch unit. Apple CarPlay, Android Auto, Bluetooth, SiriusXM satellite radio, and a six-speaker audio system are standard, but wireless smartphone integration is not offered.
• Fuel efficiency: The 2.0-litre engine with CVT is rated at 7.9 L/100 km city, 5.9 highway, and 6.8 combined. The manual-transmission SE Apex Edition is rated at 8.2 L/100 km city, 6.5 highway, and 7.4 combined.

Which 2022 Toyota Corolla trim should I buy?

The 2022 Toyota Corolla is offered in 5 trim levels: L, LE, XLE, SE, and XSE.

Here's the short version:

• L: This is the value-focused entry point if you want the Corolla’s core strengths and are comfortable with the simplest equipment set. It’s also the only trim with the six-speed manual paired to the 1.8-litre engine.
• LE: This is the best-value trim for many shoppers because it adds more everyday convenience while staying close to the lower end of the range. It also brings blind-spot monitoring with rear cross-traffic alert.
• XLE: Choose this if you want a more upscale Corolla experience and are willing to pay for it. It keeps the 1.8-litre engine but adds more comfort-oriented equipment.
• SE: This is the trim to target if you want a more expressive look and the stronger 2.0-litre engine. It’s the better pick if you care about driving feel more than pure commuting simplicity.
• XSE: This is the most feature-rich mainstream Corolla sedan trim and is the one to consider if you want the fullest equipment list, including the upgraded audio system.

The safety package is strongest from the LE upward, where blind-spot monitoring with rear cross-traffic alert becomes standard.

Is now a good time to buy a used 2022 Toyota Corolla?

This looks like a moderate, selective buyer’s market, so you can shop carefully without expecting every listing to be a bargain.

• Deal availability: 28.7% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
• Inventory: There are 491 listings available.

If you find a listing below $22,255 CAD, that's toward the low end of the year-round range and worth acting on quickly.

What is the 2022 Toyota Corolla's resale value?

The current average of $22,269 CAD sits slightly below last year's $24,500 CAD.

That price movement suggests the Corolla has become a bit easier to buy than it was a year ago, which can help future resale if you purchase at the right price. For a seller, the softer market means you may need to be more realistic on asking price, especially if your car is a higher-volume trim. The Corolla’s broad appeal and strong owner satisfaction should still help support demand over time.

Vehicles with solid owner satisfaction ratings, like this model year's 4.17/5, tend to retain buyer demand, which supports resale value over time.

Is the 2022 Toyota Corolla safe?

The 2022 Toyota Corolla earns a Top Safety Pick+ award from the IIHS and a five-star overall safety rating from NHTSA, with five-star ratings in frontal and side crash tests and four-star ratings in rollover crash tests.

It earns a 9/10 safety score from our experts.

Toyota Safety Sense 2.0 brings forward collision warning, automatic emergency braking, lane-departure warning with steering assist, automatic high beams, Lane Tracing Assist, adaptive cruise control, and traffic-sign recognition. Blind-spot monitoring with rear cross-traffic alert is standard from the Corolla LE. One caveat is that the IIHS headlight ratings vary by trim, with some versions scoring lower than others.

Should I buy a 2022 Toyota Corolla or consider a different year?

If you're weighing the 2022 against nearby model years, here's how to think about it:

Choose the 2022 if:

• 28.7% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
• Price trend: Prices have softened 9.11% compared with last year.
• Owners rate it 4.17/5 — a solid satisfaction signal.
• The 2022 adds two new colours and keeps the Corolla’s broad mix of body styles, transmissions, and powertrains.

Consider the 2021 if:

• At $20,824 CAD, the 2021 costs less than the current year's $22,269 CAD average.
• It blends affordability, reliability, and efficiency with a livelier personality.

The bottom line: If you want the broader 2022 market and are shopping for the best mix of choice and value, the 2022 is the better default pick. If your priority is saving money upfront, the 2021 is the smarter alternative, especially if you find a clean example with the trim and equipment you want.
