The 2016 Nissan Sentra S and Corolla LE share similar specs in terms of engine displacement, horsepower, wheel size, and suspension setup. However, Corolla LE is equipped with a long list of standard features that the Sentra S doesn’t even offer, such as LED DRL and low-beam headlights, 6.1-inch touch-screen display with integrated backup camera1, Siri® Eyes Free2, and available Connected Navigation3. Corolla LE represents a tremendous value when you factor in ToyotaCare no-cost normal factory scheduled maintenance plan4, IntelliChoice’s “Excellent” value rating, and a lower 5-year cost of ownership than the Sentra S5. In the highly competitive compact car segment, Corolla LE still stands as the standard by which competitors are measured.

A compatible Bluetooth enabled phone must first be paired. Phone performance depends on software, coverage & carrier. 8. All the airbag (AB) systems are Supplemental Restraint Systems. All ABs (if installed) are designed to inflate only under certain conditions and in certain types of severe collisions: frontal and knee ABs typically inflate in frontal collisions; side and side curtain ABs in side collisions; Roll-Sensing Curtain ABs at a severe tilt degree, roll or lateral G-force. In all other accidents, the ABs will not inflate. To decrease the risk of injury from an inflating AB, always wear seatbelts, sit upright in the middle of the seat as far back as possible and do not lean against the door. Do not put objects in front of an AB or around the seatback. Do not use a rearward-facing child seat in any front passenger seat. The force of an inflating AB may cause serious injury or death. See your Owner’s Manual for further information/warnings. 9. The Toyota Corolla received the lowest number of problems per 100 vehicles among compact cars in the proprietary J.D. Power 2015 Vehicle Dependability StudySM.

(Historically, vehicle manufacturers and distributors have charged a separate fee for processing handing and delivering vehicles to dealerships. Toyota’s charge for these services is called the “Delivery, Processing and Handling Fee” and is based on the value of the processing, handing and delivery services Toyota provides as well as Toyota’s overall pricing structure.
