Toyota conveyed the press today to present their 10th generation of Corolla, this car has been a best-seller ever since 1966 and sold more than 3 million units throughout the world.

The presentation was made at the MegaWeb show-room and Toyota’s President, Mr Watanabe, introduced the Corolla Sedan AXIO and the Wagon version, known as the FIELDER.

As the 10th generation of a huge success Toyota was expected to propose a car that would stay at the top through equipment and safety systems. On these new versions we have some elements of the Pre-Crash System (available on the Lexus LS-460) such as the Radar Cruise Control or the intelligent Parking Assist.
New car, new engines : a 1.5 litre producing 110HP and 140Nm and a 1.8 litre of 136HP and 175Nm. Both are CVT-i (Super Continuously Variable Transmission-Intelligent).

Design wise the appearance of the vehicle is sportier than before and elegant, this differs a lot from what we were used to with the previous versions. On the AXIO for example there is a “Sweep Cut Pillar” giving a nice and smooth look to the rear of the car.
