Blind spot monitoring is now standard, but otherwise the GLB is unchanged for 2021. Mercedes is launching a high-performance, AMG-branded GLB35 model (reviewed separately) this year.

Pros
Compelling base price,
cool infotainment setup,
roomy for first and second-row passengers.

Cons
Not much in the way of standard equipment,
sluggish throttle response,
tight passenger space in optional third row.

For 2021 A blind-spot monitor and household power outlet now standard on GLB 250.

Pros

Strong overall performance
Exceptional ride and seat comfort
Lots of the latest tech and convenience features

Cons
GLB 250 isn't particularly exciting to drive
Options can quickly run the cost up

Toyota has some excellent laurels on which to rest: a history of outstanding reliability and affordability are nothing to sneeze at, as are many of its past and current vehicles of high status. But that doesn't change the fact that it feels like Toyota is resting on its laurels with the 2019 Corolla.Corolla sedan carries over unchanged from last year

Pros
Comes with a long list of standard convenience and safety features
Plenty of room inside, especially in the back
Sport seats remain comfortable after hours of continuous driving

Cons
Acceleration is slow, even for this class
Most interior materials feel cheap
Fuel economy isn't great
Rivals achieve the same with more power
A snooze to drive

By: 
edmunds.com

Pros
Responsive CVT
Comfortable front seats
Roomy backseat

No Apple CarPlay, Android Auto connectivity

The 2019 Toyota Corolla is a fun choice as a hatchback, but we’d skip the sedan in favor of its competitors.

Pros

Spacious hatchback
Well-equipped hatchback
Good safety gear
The hatchback, period

Cons
Outdated sedan
CarPlay only on hatch
CVT can drone
Shop the competition
