Used Car Safety Report
The Toyota Corolla has been awarded a 2 star Driver Protection rating in the latest Used Car Safety Rating (UCSR) report. UCSR are reported annually by the Monash University Accident Research Centre (MUARC). Ratings are estimated from data on real crashes reported to police in Australia and New Zealand and provide a very high level of confidence. The UCSR report classifies cars according to where their rating lies in relation to a best performance benchmark. The Driver Protection rating measures the relative safety of cars in preventing serious injury to their own drivers in crashes.

Driver protection in the side impact test was good, but the driver-side rear door latch moved to the secondary latch position during the crash. One point was deducted from the test score.
The Corolla Hatch was eligible for a side pole test because it has side head-protecting airbags. There was good head protection for the driver in the side pole test.
