The world’s Best seller “The Toyota Corolla” looks a disguise of the latest Camry in its 10th incarnation. Corolla represents the symbol of perfection which made Toyota manufacture over 30 million corolla’s in over 150 countries, making it the worlds highest selling car. Now its all set to launch in India on 5th of September 2008 with its new fresh look and a new name Altis. Toyota has taken the outer design looks from its Camry sedan and slapped them on to the Corolla. Mainly, the car front grill and headlamps are the first things you would notice about the New Corolla. Though the engine remains the same as the previous model it is fine tuned for better performance. When you drive this latest version of the corolla you’ll feel it handles much better than the Honda Civic.
The “New Toyota Corolla” exudes a much younger and sportier nature. The soft, distinct lines cut, define their way from front to rear as they flow over the headlamps, past the bonnet and running the length of the sides before gently dissolving at the trunk. Toyota calls this modeling process a “Sweep Cut” , which is basically one of their forms of car sculpting & the same has been used in the latest Camry. This Corolla has character in terms of styling & performance compared to its predecessor, but its no comparison to the Civic which is leaps forward in its futuristic design.
Interiors: Have been done nicely with an uncluttered dash, beige two tone color scheme.Keeping with the trend, the interiors have been ergonomically designed & the steering wheel comes with auto, multi-information system & Climate controls. The seating positions have been strategically handled by removing the hump on the rear floor which gives you comfortable support & can swallow 3 adults at the rear.There is ample amount of storage space with 475L boot & with the new split glove box it becomes quite a novel way to utilize the space.
Engine & Power: This 1.8L VVT-i power horse pumps in 132 BHP with ease.There is enough power at your disposal & an efficiently facilitated 15″ discs for effective braking. Dual airbags, brake-assist, anti-lock brakes, electronic brake-force distribution and an anti-theft System, all of it come as standard.
Toyota now offers something that will take the Honda Civic head on in the indian market. Lets hope it fares well and “The Toyota Corolla” legacy continues…
