Toyota priced the 2027 Corolla LE at $23,325. That is the starting MSRP on Toyota’s official Corolla 60th Anniversary press kit. The Dealer Processing and Handling fee is $1,295 on the same sheet. Tax, title, license, and other dealer fees are extra. The factory book lists a Dynamic Shift continuously variable transmission on every gas Corolla sedan. No three-pedal row.
No clutch in the book
This is the clutch graf, and Toyota printed the opposite of a stick. Gas LE, SE, and XSE sedans use a standard Dynamic Shift CVT with a physical launch gear, then the pulley system. Hybrids use an electronically controlled CVT (ECVT). The official Product Information sheet does not list a manual gearbox on the 2027 Corolla sedan. If you want three pedals in a Corolla-shaped Toyota, that path is still the 2026 GR Corolla (iMT available) or the GRMN Corolla (iMT only).
The official number board
Toyota’s Aug. 18, 2026 kit puts MSRPs (excluding the $1,295 DPH fee) at:
- Corolla LE: $23,325
- Corolla SE: $25,765
- Corolla XSE: $29,040
- Corolla Hybrid LE: $25,175
- Corolla Hybrid SE: $27,615
- Corolla Hybrid XLE: $29,540
- Corolla Hybrid LE AWD: $26,575
- Corolla Hybrid SE AWD: $29,015
Gas cars use a 2.0-liter Dynamic Force four-cylinder rated at 169 horsepower and 151 lb-ft. Toyota estimates 32 city / 41 highway / 35 combined MPG for the LE. Hybrids pair a 1.8-liter with Toyota Hybrid System 5 for 138 horsepower net; Hybrid LE FWD and Hybrid XLE are estimated at 53/46/50 MPG. Electronic On-Demand AWD is available on Hybrid LE and Hybrid SE. The sedan lineup is expected at dealerships this fall.
2,500 cars for the 60th
The 2027 Corolla 60th Anniversary Special Edition is limited to 2,500 units in the U.S. It is based on the Hybrid SE grade, with exclusive 18-inch machined black-finished alloy wheels, 60th Anniversary badging, door sill plates, and floor mats. Paint choices called out in the kit: Ice Cap and Supersonic Red (a Corolla sedan first). Toyota says the Special Edition arrives early 2027, with pricing announced later. Until that sticker drops, the cheapest door into the sedan book remains the LE at $23,325.
Related Autogonzo: the 2027 Corolla Hatchback kit also listed only a Dynamic Shift CVT. The stick-shift Corollas live on the GR side of the garage.
