How many cylinders are in a Toyota Corolla engine?

I’m looking for a Toyota that I can drive every day, but I also want something fun. So naturally, the type of engine and engine power in the car is high up on my list of priorities. How many cylinders does a Toyota Corolla engine have?

Most
Toyota Corolla
models feature a four-cylinder engine capable of 169-horsepower and 151 lb-ft of torque.
But depending on your Corolla’s trim level and model year, you may have the choice between a standard 1.8-liter or an upgraded 2.0-liter engine.
If you’re looking for a Toyota that generates more power, you may want to set your sights on slightly larger models, such as the
Toyota Camry
, which is available with a 3.5-liter 6-cylinder engine in the TRD, XLE, AND XSE trims.
Alternatively—if you’re not afraid of venturing into crossover and SUV territory—the
2022 Toyota 4Runner
and
2022 Toyota Highlander
both come equipped with more powerful engines. In the full-size Highlander, you’ll find a 3.5-liter V6 engine capable of up to 295 horsepower, and the mid-size 4Runner features a surprisingly larger 4.0-liter V6.
One thing to keep in mind: vehicles with a greater number of engine cylinders also tend to face higher

rates. That’s because bigger, faster engines increase your Toyota’s speed and insurance risk factors.
