Toyota’s best-selling Corolla is getting some small upgrades for 2013, including a slightly revised chrome-accented grille and a new premium package option available for LE and S trim levels.

Three trim lines are available for the Corolla: L, LE, and S. A 6.1-inch touch screen is now standard equipment on the LE and S trim lines, along with six-speaker stereo, USB port with iPod hookup, Bluetooth hands-free phone capability, and automatic sound leveling that adjusts for outside noise. The system also comes equipped with an auxiliary input jack.

The S and LE models are both now available with three different options configurations: the premium, premium interior or premium complete packages. The premium package offers 17-inch (16-inch on LE models) 5-spoke alloy wheels, and a power tilt/slide moonroof with sliding sunshade. The interior premium package includes automatic climate control, automatic halogen headlights with black sport trim, and a leather-wrapped steering wheel with audio controls.

All Corolla models are powered by a 1.8-liter four-cylinder engine, which produces 132 hp and 128 lb-ft of torque.
