FOTO Toyota Launches 12th Generation Sedan …

Toyota introduced the new generation of the 12th Corolla sedan, which complements the family after the launch of the hatchback, which replaced Auris, and the Touring Sports wagon.

The Toyota Corolla Sedan is one of the best-selling models in the world at present, and the best-selling model since its launch under the same name, being overtaken by 46 million units since its launch in 1966. Starting with the fourth generation, Corolla has diesel engines, and now is for the first time when this model does not have this type of engine anymore. At the same time, it is a first introduction of the 1.8 hybrid engine in Europe on this model.

The new Toyota Corolla is built on Toyota's common platform, called GA-C.

The design of the sedan uses the style and the elements found on the hatchback and Touring, but it has important differences, especially in the optical blocks, which suggests that the Japanese made a decision to replace the name Auris with the late Corolla at a time when the design of the two was already completed.

From the point of view of the proportions, we know for now that the new Corolla sedan uses the wheelbase of 2.7 meters, similar to the wagon, which suggests large spaces for passengers, but the rest of the dimensions have not been announced, for unknown reasons.
