The feature that changes the character of this 2022 Toyota Corolla is sitting directly between the front seats: a six-speed manual transmission. In a market increasingly dominated by automatics and continuously variable transmissions, this Corolla gives the driver direct control over the 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine while preserving the efficiency, easy size, and everyday usefulness that have made the Corolla a familiar choice for decades. Finished in Black with a cloth interior and showing 75,673 miles, it is an unusually engaging take on a practical compact sedan.

Toyota’s 2.0-liter Dynamic Force four-cylinder is rated at 169 horsepower. In this vehicle it is paired with the available six-speed Intelligent Manual Transmission, which incorporates rev-matching technology to help smooth downshifts and reduce driveline shock. The close lower ratios provide responsive acceleration around town, while taller upper gearing supports relaxed highway travel. For someone commuting between Wesley Chapel and Tampa who still wants to participate in the driving experience, the manual gearbox is the defining reason to consider this car.

The Corolla’s low platform and compact footprint make it easy to maneuver in traffic, garages, and crowded parking areas. Front-wheel drive keeps the powertrain layout efficient, while the four-door body and trunk provide the passenger and cargo usefulness expected of a daily sedan.

Because the inventory report does not identify a specific trim designation, this description intentionally avoids assuming trim-exclusive appearance or package content. What is verified is the combination that matters most: the 2.0-liter four-cylinder, six-speed manual, front-wheel drive, cloth seating, Black exterior, and current mileage. That approach keeps the description accurate while still highlighting why this Corolla is different from the many automatic examples on the used-car market.

Toyota Safety Sense technology is part of the 2022 Corolla model line, supporting the driver with collision-awareness and lane-related functions according to configuration. Stability control, traction control, anti-lock braking, brake assist, tire-pressure monitoring, and multiple airbags provide the conventional safety foundation.

Inside, the Corolla’s straightforward proportions and accessible controls make it easy to settle into. Cloth seating is practical for daily use, and the compact exterior is especially convenient in Tampa and New Tampa where a full-size SUV or truck can feel unnecessary.

Its mechanical formula is refreshingly direct: a naturally aspirated 2.0-liter engine, driver-operated manual gearbox, and front-wheel drive. That simplicity will appeal to buyers who want a commuter that does not feel anonymous from behind the wheel.
