4 Reasons You'll Love the 2017 Toyota Corolla

The Toyota Corolla has a solid reputation as a reliable, worry-free car—and for good reason. Since they first released it 50 years ago, Toyota has sold more than 43 million Corollas around the world, giving it the right to be called the best-selling vehicle worldwide. But Toyota isn't done yet; they've refreshed the Corolla for 2017, and you'll love what they've done to make their top seller even better. Photo: Toyota.com

#1: Outstanding Standard Features

While the Corolla has always had a solid set of standard features, Toyota has taken the 2017 Corolla to new heights. The list of new standard features includes many additions, like:
  • LED headlights with automatic high beams
  • Redesigned dashboard with a sleek, new instrument panel
  • Adaptive cruise control
  • Smart key entry and keyless engine start/stop
  • Easy access to the trunk with just a touch of a button
  • Upgraded seats
  • New circular air vents
  • Five extra inches of legroom in the rear seats
  • ECO function to improve gas mileage
These new standard features give the Corolla a best-in-class look and feel, and some superb and luxurious splashes of modernity to boot. If you haven't seen a 2017 Corolla yet, you'll want to check out its redesigned, stylish appearance and features at our Homosassa dealership. Photo: Toyota.com

#2: New Safety Features

The Corolla still has some of the best reliability and crash test ratings in its class, and Toyota has gone a step further by including additional standard safety features that competitors can’t (or don’t) typically match. In fact, most rivals don’t have any advanced safety technologies beyond a rearview camera! The 2017 Corolla comes with an advanced safety package that includes:
  • Radar cruise control: This system detects the speed and distance of the vehicle in front of you and adjusts your speed accordingly, much like Active Cruise Control.
  • Lane departure warning: If you inadvertently leave your lane, this system alerts you with an audible tone and a visual warning.
  • Lane keep assist: If you leave your lane and don't correct your steering, this will gently correct the steering to keep you in your lane.
  • Pre-collision detection: this system scans the road ahead for potential vehicle collisions.
  • Pedestrian detection: the Corolla scans for pedestrians who may come into your path.
  • Emergency braking: If either system detects a potential vehicle or pedestrian crash, they alert you and apply the brakes automatically if necessary.
The crash you have the best chance of surviving is the one that never happens. These advanced safety features make the 2017 Toyota Corolla stand out in its class and reflect Toyota's ongoing commitment to driver and passenger safety. Photo: Toyota.com

#3: Options Galore

If you're looking to go beyond the standard features, the 2017 Corolla has you covered. The Corolla trim levels offer a full list of extras, including:
  • Heated seats
  • Push-button start
  • Auto-dimming rearview mirror
  • Eight-way power driver’s seat
  • Sunroof
  • Automatic climate control
  • Upgraded navigation package with a 7-inch touchscreen
You can also choose the Entune Performance Audio Package, which equips the Corolla with Bluetooth, a USB port, SiriusXM radio, voice activation (after hooking up a smartphone), and navigation.

#4: City Driving Perfection

City driving is part of what made the Corolla so popular and long-lasting—and it still holds true in 2017. The Corolla is easy to drive and has great sightlines. The tight turning radius means navigating tight spaces, parking, and making U-turns are easy tasks. It stays calm over rough surfaces and can dampen any shock from the road. Combined with its great gas mileage and outstanding reliability, the Corolla makes driving in the city a pleasure. Millions of drivers choose Corolla for its solid reliability, great gas mileage, and thoughtful features. Why don’t you join the sedan’s audience as they applaud Toyota to the first-place podium? Come see for yourself why the 2017 Corolla is one of the world’s best cars. Visit Village Toyota at 2431 S Suncoast Blvd in Homosassa, or call our dealers at (352) 628-5100 to test drive, lease, or purchase the ’17 Corolla.

The long hood, short rear deck, striking headlights with integrated LED daytime running lights, chrome-tipped exhaust, and LED taillights contribute to a modern interpretation of a classic sports car. Additionally, unique vortex generators on the fenders help to enhance stability by controlling air turbulence. Equally sporty is the 2017 Toyota 86 sport coupe's GT-inspired cockpit. The cabin's driver-centric focus is evident in the large, leather-wrapped, three-spoked sport steering wheel with audio controls, as well as the race-inspired red and blue gauges. Soft suede GranLux material with silver contrast stitching covers the deeply bolstered sport seats for a premium feel. Exhilarating Performance & Handling Driving the rear-wheel-drive 86 through twists and turns is exhilarating, thanks to the sport-tuned suspension lets you carve through twists and turns with confidence and control. The precise and agile handling is the product of years of Toyota success on the track. And it's now in your hands. Toyota knows a great engine when they see it. That's why they partnered with Subaru, putting their powerful and fuel-efficient 2.0-liter, 205-hp BOXER® flat-four under the hood. The BOXER's horizontally opposed cylinders not only maximize performance but also allow the engine to be placed lower in the chassis to improve handling. With 156 lb.-ft. of torque and the choice of either a close ratio 6-speed automatic with paddle shifters or 6-speed manual, the new 2017 Toyota 86 Sport Coupe is nothing less than a total blast to drive. Ready to take the 86 out for a spin on the track? Push the Vehicle Stability Control (VSC) button to engage Track Mode to give you an extra boost of performance and handling. 2017 Toyota Corolla iM Hatchback The iM's exuberant and youthful styling features a muscular front fascia, low hood line, and a unique black honeycomb grille. Two wedge-shaped projector headlights with standard LED daytime running lights and an aggressive standard aero kit with sporty front fascia, side skirts, and rear bumper accentuate the iM's playful nature. Unique standard "vortex-inspired" 17-inch alloy wheels make a bold statement. With upscale piano black accents, an available leather-wrapped steering wheel with contrast stitching, sports instrumentation, and flowing dash, the interior of the new 2017 Toyota Corolla iM is yet another example of the automaker's superlative craftsmanship and design. The smooth lines of the dash, use of high-quality premium materials, a 4.2-inch Multi-Information Display, and standard dual-zone climate control are just some of the upscale features that set the iM's surprisingly spacious interior apart. You'll be amazed at just how much stuff you can carry in the new Corolla iM. A 60/40 split folding rear seat arrangement lets you carry both passengers and cargo with ease. Is the new Corolla iM hatchback fun to drive? You bet! Toyota incorporates MacPherson struts in the front and a double-wishbone suspension in the rear for remarkably nimble handling. Trigger the Sport Mode button to tweak throttle characteristics for additional power when you need it. Speaking of power, the new Corolla iM puts some serious street cred to the pavement, thanks to a 1.8-liter, 4-cylinder DOHC, 16-valve engine with Dual Variable Valve Timing with intelligence (VVT-i) that delivering 137 horsepower and 126 lb.-ft. of torque. Choose from either a 6-speed manual transmission or Toyota's continuously variable transmission with shift mode (CVTi-S). 2017 Prius Prime Plug-In Hybrid Toyota is making electrifying news in 2017 with the debut of the all-new Prius Prime. Clad in dramatic and head-turning new sheetmetal, the Prius Prime is the product of Toyota's industry-leading hybrid/electric engineering technology. Best of all, it could help you qualify for up to $4,500 in federal tax incentives. Futuristic Exterior Toyota made headlines in 2016 with the completely redesigned Prius lineup. The new 2017 Prius Prime for sale near Brooksville, FL at Village Toyota features Quad-LED projector headlights, distinctive side body fins and a shape sculpted in a wind tunnel to maximize aerodynamic efficiency. A unique active grill shutter closes at high speeds to further improve its exceptional fuel economy. Plus, an innovative carbon-fiber-reinforced polymer rear hatch helps to reduce weight. Remarkable Fuel Economy & Performance What sets this Prius apart from its stablemates is that, unlike them, it is a true plug-in electric/hybrid. In other words, you can charge the Prime's higher-capacity batteries directly using a standard household outlet. Or, if you're on the road, you can take advantage of one of the thousands of charging stations conveniently located across the country. If you know somebody who owns an all-electric vehicle, such as the Tesla, you may encounter what they call "range anxiety." Since these vehicles rely solely on battery power, owner's need to carefully plan to ensure that charging stations are along their route. However, Toyota's proven Hybrid Synergy Drive® eliminates this problem. You can choose to drive in all-electric mode for up to 25 miles, at which point the Prius Prime's peppy gasoline engine kicks in for an extraordinary EPA-estimated* 640-mile total driving range. This combination of Toyota's electric and hybrid dual motor system achieves a remarkable EPA-estimated 133 MPGe.* Modernistic & Spacious Interior On the inside, you'll find the Prius Prime's plush, modernistic, and incredibly quiet interior most accommodating. Premium materials give the Prime's interior a sophisticated and upscale feel. Ample head and legroom, split fold-down rear seats, available heated front seats, and a best-in-class 19.8 cubic feet of cargo space and available deluxe appointments including leather seats are prime reasons why you'll love the Prius Prime's interior. As you would expect, a vehicle as technologically advanced as the Prius features some incredibly innovative technology. For example, an available 11.6-inch HD multimedia display gives you the same type of functionality you're used to on your smartphone or tablet. Pinch, swipe or zoom. You have many ways to control the many features of Toyota's exclusive Entune® App Suite that puts a world of communication, entertainment, navigation, Internet, and social media capabilities at your fingertips. Plus, a color Heads Up Display (HUD) like the kind you'd find on a fighter jet instantly communicates vehicle information, including turn-by-turn navigational prompts, right at eye level on the inside of your windshield. Also, a Multi-Information Display lets you check your Prius Prime's real-time driving data with just a glance. The Future Is Now At Village Toyota The 2017 Toyota 86 Sport Coupe, 2017 Corolla iM Hatchback, and plug-in/hybrid 2017 Toyota Prius Prime are just three of the many exciting, innovative, and expertly engineered new Toyotas arriving at your hometown Toyota new car dealership near Inverness and Spring Hill, FL.

The Best Off-Roading Features on the New 2017 Toyota 4Runner

The 2017 Toyota 4Runner boasts the space, premium materials, and modern technology for family transportation both in the suburbs of Brooksville and the busy city streets of Spring Hill, FL. But it also easily muscles through off-road adventures around Citrus County with features like the following: Photo: Toyota.com more When starting from a steep incline, Hill Start Assist Control momentarily holds the 4Runner stationary as you move your foot from the brake pedal to accelerator. This means you won’t find yourself slowly rolling down the slope like some mossy boulder. To maximize your grip on rough terrain, two 4-Wheel Drive systems are available on the new 4Runner. The SR5 with 4WD and the TR Off-Road rely on part-time 4WD with Active Traction Control (A-TRAC). The 4Runner Limited model comes with 4WD, which gets full-time capability through A-TRAC and a Torsen® limited-slip center differential. The locking rear differential is electronically controlled to evenly distribute engine power to both rear wheels. Even if one is off the ground, they both move at the same speed, so you maintain a predictable pace over challenging obstacles on the road and off the beaten path. To adjust your Toyota 4Runner’s traction level and engine throttle, twist the Multi-Terrain Select module and choose from four modes that regulate wheel spin. Crawl Control is the 4Runner’s king when it comes to optimizing traction on uneven surfaces; it automatically adjusts the brakes and throttles through five low-speed settings, which keeps surprises to a minimum. The Kinetic Dynamic Suspension System also improves traction control thanks to enhanced modulation. Test Out the Impressive New Toyota 4Runner in Homosassa The best way to uncover the advantages of these amazing features for yourself is to take the all-new Toyota 4Runner for a test drive. Although we don’t recommend test driving the 4Runner on the rough trails in Citrus County, you can swing through Dunnellon or Inverness to see what this impeccable Toyota SUV is capable of. Contact our new Toyota dealership in Homosassa today to schedule a test drive! Call us at (352) 628-5100 or visit our new and used car dealership at 2431 S Suncoast Blvd to view any of our vehicles, 4Runner or otherwise.
