## Which Toyota Corolla generation do you have?

Specifications change at generation boundaries, not every model year. Two cars four years apart often take the identical oil, filter, and battery.

| Generation | Model years | Body style | Engines | Oil |
| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
| E210 (12th generation) | [2020-2025](https://whichcarparts.com/cars/toyota/corolla/2020-2025) | Compact sedan (TNGA-C platform; the Corolla Hatchback, sold from 2019, shares this platform and most service parts) | 3 | 0W-20, 0W-16 |
| E170 (11th generation) | [2014-2019](https://whichcarparts.com/cars/toyota/corolla/2014-2019) | Compact sedan | 2 | 0W-20 |
| E140 (10th generation) | [2012-2013](https://whichcarparts.com/cars/toyota/corolla/2012-2013) | Compact sedan | 1 | 0W-20 |

## About the Toyota Corolla

The Toyota Corolla is the best-selling nameplate in automotive history, and the 2012-2025 US span covers three generations that get steadily more sophisticated while staying cheap to run. 8L 2ZR-FE, a dated but rugged 4-speed automatic, 0W-20 oil, and a Group 35 battery. Its paperwork trail is mostly Takata airbag-inflator and airbag-ECU recalls, all fixed free.

The E170 (2014-2019) kept the 2ZR engine family (adding the 140-hp Valvematic 2ZR-FAE in the LE Eco) but swapped in a CVT that Toyota had to recalibrate under service campaign JSD, made LED low beams standard on every trim, and quietly switched the oil filter from a cartridge to a spin-on in 2016, a detail that trips up DIYers. 8L hybrid rated over 50 mpg, with LN-format batteries replacing the old Group 35. Across all three generations the bolt pattern stays 5x100, lug torque stays 76 ft-lbs, and maintenance follows Toyota's standard rhythm: 10,000-mile synthetic oil changes, 30,000-mile filters, coolant at 100k then every 50k, and iridium plugs at 120k.

Owners look things up because the details shift constantly, filter style by year, oil grade by engine, battery size by powertrain.
