Toyota Corolla Wiper Blades Size for Every Model Year from 1985 to 2026
Streaky wipers on a rainy drive? You just need the right size. The problem is, Toyota changed Corolla wiper sizes with almost every generation. The blades that fit a 1995 Corolla will not fit a 2005 model, and neither will fit a 2020.
This guide covers the exact Toyota Corolla wiper blades size for every model sold in Australia from 1985 to 2026. Find your year, match your body style, and order the right blades the first time. Just as knowing how to tune a car engine helps keep your vehicle performing at its best, choosing the correct wiper blade size ensures clear visibility and safer driving.

How the Sizes Changed, Generation by Generation
1985–1989 (E82). The classic eighties Corolla Liftback runs a matched pair of 18-inch blades up front with a 16-inch rear. So the 1986 Toyota Corolla wiper blade size is the same as a 1988’s: 18 inches on both sides.
1989–1994 (E90). The driver’s blade grew to 20 inches with an 18-inch passenger blade. That combo covers the 1990, 1991, 1992, and 1993 Toyota Corolla wiper blade sizes across sedan, hatch, liftback, and wagon. Only the rear differs: 16 inches on the hatch and wagon, 18 inches on the liftback.
1994–1999 (E100). Same 20″/18″ front pair as the E90. A 1995 or 1997 Toyota Corolla takes identical front blades to a 1992, which makes this one of the easiest eras to shop for them in. The E100 hatch adds an 18-inch rear wiper.
1998–2001 (E110). Here is a trap. The 1999 Toyota Corolla wiper blade size depends on body style. The sedan runs a shorter 17-inch passenger blade, while the hatch keeps the 18-inch one. The driver’s side stays 20 inches on both. Note the overlap too: a 1998 or 1999 Corolla could be an E100 or an E110, so check your model before ordering.
2001–2007 (E120). The driver’s blade jumped to 24 inches with an 18-inch passenger blade. That means the 2002, 2003, 2004, 2005, and 2006 Toyota Corolla wiper blade sizes are all identical: 24″/18″. The hatch and wagon both add a 14-inch rear.
2007–2012 (E150/E140). The windscreen grew again, and the driver’s blade stretched to 26 inches with a 16-inch passenger’s blade. So the 2008, 2009, 2010, and 2011 Toyota Corolla wiper blade sizes are all 26″/16″. The E150 hatch runs a 12-inch rear wiper.
2012–2017 (E170 sedan and E180 hatch). Toyota split the two bodies onto different platforms, and for once the wiper sizes split too. The 2013–2017 Corolla sedan takes 24″/16″. The 2013–2017 Corolla hatch takes 26″/14″ plus a compact 8-inch rear. If you drive a 2014, 2015, or 2016 Corolla, body style matters here more than any other year.
2018–2026 (E210). The current shape and the biggest windscreen yet. The 2019, 2020, 2021, and 2022 Toyota Corolla wiper blade sizes step up to a long 28-inch driver blade with a 14-inch passenger blade, and the hatch adds a 12-inch rear. The 2023–2025 GR GTS hot hatch (GZEA14R) runs the same 28″/14″ front pair with a 12-inch rear, but it is listed as its own fitment, so GR owners should match their exact model in the search tool.

Sedan, Hatch, Wagon or Liftback: Why Body Style Matters

Two rules to remember. First, the rear wiper. Sedans never have one. Hatches, wagons, and liftbacks always do, and the size ranges from 8 inches on the 2012–2017 hatch to 18 inches on the nineties models. All rear blades are available as a front-and-rear kit so you can replace everything in one order.
Second, the front pair is not always shared. From 1989 to 2012, the front sizes matched across body styles. From 2012 to 2017, they do not; the sedan and hatch take different blades on both sides. Match your body style, not just your year.
How Much Do Corolla Wiper Blades Cost in Australia?
Good news. The Corolla is one of the cheapest cars in Australia to re-blade.
| Option | Typical Cost (Pair) | Notes |
| Budget frame blades | $15 – $30 | Streak early, replace often |
| Quality beam blades | $35 – $60 | Best wipe, longest life |
| Toyota genuine blades | $60 – $90 | Same wipe, dealer price |
| Fitted at a workshop | $50 – $120 | Parts plus labour |
Paying a workshop to fit wipers makes little sense on a Corolla. The blades click on in two minutes with no tools. Buy a quality pair online, fit them in your driveway, and pocket the labour charge.
OEM vs Aftermarket Wiper Blades
Toyota genuine blades work well, but you pay a dealer margin for the brand. A quality aftermarket beam blade in the correct size wipes just as clean, often quieter, and usually costs half as much. If your Corolla has an ADAS windscreen, choosing the correct blade size and fit is even more important to help maintain clear visibility for driver-assistance systems.
The one rule: match the exact size and fitting for your year. A blade that is close enough is not good enough. One inch too long and the blades can clash mid-sweep. One inch too short and you get a blind strip right in your eyeline, which can also affect visibility through an ADAS windscreen.
Frame, Hybrid or Beam Wipers: Which Should You Buy?
Size is only half the choice. The blade style matters too.
Frame wipers. The old metal-skeleton style. Cheap, but they streak as the frame wears and they whistle at highway speed.
Hybrid wipers. A frame blade with an aero cover. Better looks, decent performance, mid-range price.
Beam wipers. One curved piece of spring steel with no exposed frame. Even pressure across the whole blade, a quieter wipe, and a longer life. This is what most late-model Corollas run from the factory and the best upgrade for older ones.
Every Corolla from 1985 to 2026 uses a standard hook arm, so swapping styles is a two-minute job. No tools needed.
How to Replace Corolla Wiper Blades in 2 Minutes
- Lift the wiper arm away from the windscreen until it locks upright.
- Press the release tab on the old blade and slide it down off the hook.
- Slide the new blade up into the hook until it clicks.
- Lower the arm gently back onto the glass. Never let it snap down.
- Test with washer fluid before you drive. One smooth pass means you are done.
Repeat for the passenger side. Hatch, wagon, and liftback owners, do the rear blade while you are at it. Most rear blades use a simple twist-and-pull fitting.
Signs Your Corolla Needs New Wipers
Do not wait for a downpour to find out. Replace your blades if you notice:
In Australian conditions, heat kills wipers faster than rain. UV bakes the rubber hard, so most blades need replacing every 6 to 12 months even if you rarely use them.

How to Make Your Wiper Blades Last Longer
A Note for Corolla Cross and Corolla Hybrid Owners
The Corolla Cross is a different vehicle with its own size. The 2022–2025 Corolla Cross (XG10) takes a 26-inch driver blade, a 16-inch passenger blade, and a 12-inch rear. Do not use the standard Corolla chart for it.
The Corolla Hybrid, on the other hand, shares its body with the standard sedan and hatch. Match the body style and year in the chart above, and the hybrid badge changes nothing.
Conclusion
Finding your Toyota Corolla wiper blade size takes ten seconds with the right chart. Whether you drive a 1991 E90 wagon, a 2005 E120 sedan, or a 2024 E210 hatch, match your year and body style, and pick a quality beam blade to get a clear, silent wipe in any weather.
While maintaining your Corolla, having the best adhesive remover on hand can also help remove old stickers or adhesive residue from the windscreen without damaging the glass.

Frequently Asked Questions
What size wiper blades does a 2020 Toyota Corolla take?
Both the 2020 sedan and hatch take a 28-inch driver blade and a 14-inch passenger blade. The hatch also has a 12-inch rear wiper.
Are Corolla sedan and hatch wiper sizes the same?
Usually, but not always. From 1989 to 2012, the front sizes match. From 2012 to 2017 they split: the sedan takes 24″/16″ while the hatch takes 26″/14″. From 2018, they matched again at 28″/14″.
What size wipers does a 2005 Toyota Corolla take?
The 2005 Corolla belongs to the E120 generation that ran from 2001 to 2007, so it takes a 24-inch driver blade and an 18-inch passenger blade, the same as a 2001, 2002, 2003, 2004, or 2006 model.
Does the Corolla hatch have a rear wiper?
Yes. Every Corolla hatch carries one, from the 16-inch rear on the 1989–1994 E90 to the 12-inch rear on the current E210. Sedans do not have a rear wiper.
How often should I replace my wiper blades?
Every 6 to 12 months in Australia. Sun damage hardens the rubber even when the wipers sit unused, so age matters as much as mileage.
Are Toyota genuine wiper blades worth the extra money?
Not really. A quality aftermarket beam blade in the correct size wipes just as well for around half the price. Fit and size matter far more than the badge on the packet.
