- [Announcer] The 2022 Toyota Corolla Hatchback
versus the 2022 Honda Civic Hatchback.
Let's learn more about these two hatchbacks.
The 2022 Corolla Hatchback excels in active safety
with standard features like Toyota Safety Sense 2.0,
as well as passive safety with its 10 airbags.
SE Nightshade Edition
offers a wide variety of stylish, blacked-out features.
Corolla Hatchback puts the important information front
and center with an available
7-inch Multi-Information Display.
Corolla Hatchback has two core grades,
three if you count the SE Nightshade Edition.
Both of these core grades can be equipped
with a 6-speed Intelligent Manual Transmission
or a continuously variable transmission.
On the other hand, the 2022 Honda Civic Hatchback
is the latest addition
to the all-new 11th-generation Civic lineup.
This redesign gives drivers four grades
and four configurations.
All of Civic Hatchback's grades
come with a continuously variable transmission,
while Sport and Sport Touring
also offer an available 6-speed manual.
Corolla Hatchback comes standard
with LED headlights and taillights,
an available two-tone paint scheme,
and alloy wheels up to 18 inches.
SE Nightshade Edition pours on the style
thanks to its blacked-out features
like 18-inch black alloy wheels,
a black rear spoiler, and black rear badges.
These style touchpoints are complemented
by black heated power outside mirrors
with turn signal indicators and black outside door handles.
While Civic Hatchback offers standard LED lighting
and alloy wheels as large as 18 inches,
it does not offer a two-tone paint scheme on any grade.
While Honda Civic Hatchback doesn't have an answer
to SE Nightshade Edition,
it does offer drivers stylish premium color options
like Boost Blue Pearl.
Inside, Corolla Hatchback features a variety
of convenience features designed around the driver.
The standard Smart Key System
with Push Button Start makes fumbling
for keys a thing of the past,
while available wireless smartphone charging
ditches the cord.
Other standout features for the interior
include 60/40 split fold-down rear seating,
and two USB charging ports.
Finally, the XSE comes
with an 8-way power-adjustable driver's seat
with sport bolsters and seatback pockets.
Civic Hatchback has a standard Push Button Start,
but its wireless smartphone charging
is only offered for an additional cost.
However, Civic Hatchback does include a driver's seat
with manual height adjustment
and 60/40 split fold-down rear seating as standard.
In terms of technology,
every Corolla Hatchback
has an 8-inch touchscreen
and a Toyota Audio Multimedia system
that includes standard compatibility
for Apple CarPlay,
which connects drivers to Apple Music, Maps, Messages,
and other favorite apps from your iPhone.
In addition, Android Auto compatibility makes it easy
to stay connected to Android devices,
while Amazon Alexa connectivity
keeps Amazon's voice service just a question away.
Plus, there's a standard 3-month
SiriusXM Platinum Plan trial subscription
that includes over 165 channels available in-cabin,
and even more on the SXM mobile app,
making it easier than ever to enjoy not just ad-free music,
but also sports, comedy, and more.
Corolla Hatchback also comes available
with trials to Toyota's line of Connected Services,
including a Wi-Fi Connect hotspot for up to five devices.
There's also a standard six-speaker
and an available eight-speaker JBL Premium Audio system.
Civic Hatchback has a standard 7-inch touchscreen
and an available 9-inch version.
Apple CarPlay integration and Android Auto integration
are both standard too.
However, Amazon Alexa and Wi-Fi hotspot functionality
are nowhere to be found.
Not only that, but SiriusXM compatibility is only offered
on the Sport Touring grade.
In terms of audio, Civic Hatchback offers three systems:
one with four speakers, an available eight speaker option,
and an available 12-speaker, 540-watt premium system.
With Corolla Hatchback,
peace of mind comes standard
with Toyota Safety Sense 2.0 equipped on all grades.
Plus, Corolla Hatchback helps you commute confidently
with its available Blind Spot Monitor
with Rear Cross-Traffic Alert.
Civic Hatchback offers helpful safety features
like a Traffic Sign Recognition System,
but while Honda gets these things right,
it only offers its Blind Spot Information System
on two of Civic Hatchback's grades.
Another limitation is that the Rear Cross-Traffic Alert
is only offered on the Sport Touring grade.
However, it's important to note that Honda Sensing,
which is a counterpart to Toyota Safety Sense,
comes standard on all Civic grades.
Corolla Hatchback's punchy 168-horsepower engine
makes for a fun ride,
especially with its 151 pound-feet of torque.
It also has impressive fuel efficiency,
with an EPA-estimated fuel economy rating
that tops out at 35 combined miles per gallon.
On the other hand, Corolla's manual transmission,
which is paired with the same engine as the CVT,
puts full control and added fun in the driver's hands,
while still having a respectable
31 EPA-estimated combined miles per gallon.
Civic Hatchback gives drivers a formidable 180 horsepower
and 177 pound-feet of torque
and also matches Corolla Hatchback's miles per gallon.
However, the turbo engine is only offered
on EX-L and Sport Touring,
the other two grades come with a two-liter,
four-cylinder engine with 158 horsepower
and 138 pound-feet of torque.
Finally, both the 2022 Civic Hatchback Sport
and Sport Touring grades
can be paired with a six-speed manual transmission.
Corolla Hatchback drivers can rest a little easier
thanks to the model's reputation for safety;
it's one that's been recognized
by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration.
Corolla Hatchback also comes standard with ToyotaCare,
which provides two years
or 25,000 miles of scheduled maintenance,
whichever comes first.
As well as two years and unlimited-mileage,
24-hour roadside assistance.
These added benefits make buying a Corolla Hatchback
a seriously smart long-term decision.
Civic is also known to provide great value,
on the strength of its solid roadside assistance
and HondaCare maintenance plans.
There's also the fact that Civic
is a Top Safety Pick Plus for 2022.
As one of the most fun and feature-packed compacts
on the market,
Corolla Hatchback offers a host
of convenience features and intuitive tech.
It's also backed by Toyota's undisputed reputation
for quality, durability, and reliability.
