New Small Sedan in Palatine, IL


Comfortable Interior

While the 2020 Jetta has leatherette seats, the rest of the interior is full of hard, scratchy plastics. While we don’t expect a vehicle at this price point to have premium construction, the interior materials of the Jetta feel particularly cheap. The 2020 Corolla, on the other hand, has soft-touch plastics that are nice on the eyes and the fingers. Similarly, the Corolla has an excellent and ergonomic control scheme; buttons are logically grouped together, with enough of them that each serves a singular purpose, but not so many that cockpit is busy or confusing.

Better Fuel Economy

You might be looking at the above numbers and thinking that a difference of one mpg isn’t really enough to qualify as “better fuel economy.” You’d be right if it weren’t for one thing: the 2020 Corolla can be purchased as a hybrid. The hybrid has superior fuel economy is every way, with its mpg spread coming out to 53/52/52. The 2020 Jetta doesn’t have a hybrid option, so what you see is what you get.
