You want to keep your precious passengers safe on the road, and the engineers at Toyota feel the same way. That’s why this automaker dedicated its ingenuity to developing a slew of driver assistance features designed to be an extra set of eyes and ears as you travel down this road called life. Here are the three most innovative ways Toyota keeps families safe in the 2020 Corolla.
- Toyota Safety Sense Package

The Corolla comes standard with the Toyota Safety Sense 2.0 suite of active safety and driver assistance features, which includes a rearview camera, forward collision warning, and adaptive cruise control. There’s also the added security of a pre-collision pedestrian detection system, automatic high beams, automatic emergency braking, and lane departure alerts. Would you like the added confidence of lane keep assist, traffic sign recognition, and lane tracing assist, all standard?
Take advantage of the integrated camera and radar system to help prevent collisions with a pedestrian or another car and the high-tech cruise control that utilizes radar to adjust your speed and maintain a safe distance between you and the car up ahead. A windshield-mounted camera may help you avoid an unintended lane change with audible alerts, while a forward-facing intelligent camera detects various traffic signs, and sends them to your Corolla’s multi-information display.
Get your new car outfitted with even more optional safety technologies. Blind-spot monitoring is an available option for all trim levels. This system uses a series of cameras to scan the perimeter of your car. It alerts you to any objects in your blind spots, such as another vehicle. Improve nighttime visibility with Corolla’s available adaptive headlights. Toyota curves the headlamps to automatically adjust the direction of the beam so that it illuminates more of the road ahead, even around corners.
- Surrounds You With Airbags
Get 360-degree protection with Toyota Corolla’s modern airbag system. You’ll appreciate a driver’s side, passenger, front- and rear-head, and front side airbag. According to the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS), when deployed in a collision, an airbag can save your life by providing a cushion designed to protect your and the other occupants from coming in contact with any of the vehicle’s hard, interior surfaces.
- Stellar Crash Test Performance
The 2020 Corolla’s Safety Sense package looks good on paper, but how does it perform? The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration gave it a perfect five out of five overall safety rating, including stellar performance on the side barrier driver, side pole, and front-seat analyses.
This Toyota received equally good marks from the IIHS. This organization gave both the Corolla sedan and hatchback variants its top rating of “Good” in all six of its trials, plus awarded these models with its coveted “Top Safety Pick” designation.
