2020 Toyota Corolla L vs LE
If you were a fan of the Toyota Corolla before, then you are really going to like what is in store for the 2020 model year. With a new TNGA platform and sporty style, this practical sedan just got a pretty big upgrade. Plus, all 2020 Toyota Corolla trims now come standard with Apple CarPlay for seamless connectivity and the Toyota Safety Sense 2.0 active safety bundle for added peace of mind.
Practical-minded shoppers have long been drawn to the Toyota Corolla lineup for its value, and the lineup’s base trim levels have always been popular. Today, we are comparing the 2020 Toyota Corolla’s two base trims, L and LE, to help shoppers understand the key differences between them. With a price difference of only a few hundred dollars, this choice will likely be more about personal preference and availability rather than budget concerns.

What are the differences between the L and LE trim on the new Corolla?
The differences between the 2020 Toyota Corolla L and LE trims are subtle, but noticeable if you are a driver who values on-road creature comforts. While both are generously equipped, the LE trim bumps up the comfort and convenience and adds in a few available features for drivers interested in a premium feature or two without going up to a higher-priced trim.
The L trim comes standard with all of the basic gear a new car shopper would expect plus Apple CarPlay compatibility and the value-packed Toyota Safety Sense 2.0 bundle. Toyota Safety Sense 2.0 provides a second set of eyes on the road and includes Pre-Collision with Pedestrian Detection, Lane Departure Alert with Steering Assist and Road Edge Detection, Automatic High Beams, Full-Speed Range Dynamic Radar Cruise Control, Lane Tracing Assist, and Road Sign Assist.
Moving up to the LE trim will give drivers access to a handful of extra features including heated side mirrors, larger wheels, upgraded windshield wipers, automatic climate control, extra cupholders, and a center console with an armrest and cupholders for the back seat. In addition, drivers will have the option of adding on available features like blind spot monitoring, a moonroof, or the Toyota Smart Key System.
