and cheapest corolla i can find (new, but 2025 model) is ~20350 gbp (~27300 usd), 2026 models start about 4300 gbp/5700 usd higher.
not sure what your taxes+fees are, but it suddenly doesn’t look as such big difference. not sure if what you listed is cheapest that is available on a market there, i am sure you americans generally like bigger cars, but what i chose are really the cheapest (and therefor smallest) available cars on the local market.
well 23k usd is ~17k gbp.
