First introduced in 1968 as a modest two-door subcompact, the Toyota Corolla has grown remarkably in stature and sales, with 30 million Corollas sold from inception through 2005. Not surprisingly, gas mileage has always been a big part of the Corolla’s appeal.
While the Corolla’s gas mileage peaked in the 1984 model year, a clean used Corolla of any vintage can be an excellent choice for folks on a tight budget. The most economical version of the 2008 Toyota Corolla delivers a high of 37 miles per gallon on the highway when equipped with a five-speed manual transmission.
We recently spent a week with the Corolla and walked away with a solid understanding of what continues to make this car so popular after all these years. Check out our Toyota Corolla review:

Note: the EPA tweaked their testing procedure, starting with the 2008 model year, with the end result being that the 2008 MPG estimates are now lower than previous years. As always, YMMV.

mmmm…mileage.my last 4 tanks squeezed tight each time gave me 34.8, 42.19, 42.87 and 40.68 mpg (US gallons). The low was mostly city before a trip, the last 3 down I-75 from north of Detroit to near Palm Beach, Florida. 90 minutes idling at customs and about 20 miles of stop and go, otherwise travelling at the limit or as much as 10 mph below the limit, never over. Cruise control on most of the time and temperatures in mid- 80s to mid-90s so a/c about half the time.
Can anyone explain to me why a
1984 Toyota Corolla 4 cylinder 1.8 liter (M4) Manual (can get 47 to 59MPG)
When a:
2010 Toyota Corolla 4 cylinder 1.8 liter R (M5) Manual (gets 26 to 35MPG)
Does this make any sense? Even taking into account extra weight for add safety options and creature comforts, you would think that there would be a steady incline in MPG throughout the years… So much for moving forward!
Honda I would assume is the same story I know the Civic VX got well over 50mpg for the 3 years they made it….
@Eric – Check the difference in curb weights between the two model years … I took a quick look. Seems like the current model might be as much as 35-40% heavier? Also, EPA estimates were a lot more optimistic back in those days …
My 1992 toyota corolla has 154,000 miles and been getting 16-17 mpg. What can I do to get more??
