What is the 2013 Toyota Corolla oil type?

I just bought a cheap 2013 Toyota Corolla that I’m going to use specifically as a commuter car. To save more money on top of the low price tag, I’m also going to change the oil myself. What is the oil type for a 2013 Toyota Corolla?

A 2013
Toyota Corolla’s
oil type is 0W-20 oil according to the owner’s manual. However, you could also use 5W-20 in a pinch, as it’s similar in viscosity.
To successfully complete an oil change, you will need 4.4 quarts of motor oil for your Corolla. Full synthetic motor oil is preferred, but a blend or conventional motor oil can also work if you’re on a strict budget.
If you use a blend or conventional, expect to change the oil about every 5,000 miles, while full synthetic can take you about 7,000 to 8,000 miles without an oil change.
Regardless of which oil you choose in your 2013 Toyota Corolla, make sure that you use the
