    Aggressive and sporty looks, I hope it has the powerplant to match it.

    From motor1.com:
    "Corolla SE and XSE models will benefit from the addition of a new 169-horsepower 2.0-liter inline-four-cylinder engine. The four-pot pairs with Toyota’s latest continuously variable transmission (CVT), which uses a fixed first gear for starting off and can simulate a 10-speed manual transmission in Sport mode. All other Corolla trims carry on with a revised version of the 1.8-liter inline-four that lives under the hood of the present-day Corolla LE Eco. Toyota promises an increase in both power and fuel efficiency from the engine, which currently belts out 140 horses and returns up to 34 miles per gallon, according to the EPA.
    Additionally, the Corolla SE will once again offer a six-speed manual gearbox. Opting for the stick shift, though, sacrifices the adaptive cruise control system and lane-centering system that come standard on CVT-equipped Corollas."

    Who knows which Ph will get.[emoji4]

    The same 1.6L NA engine of the current generation. Allergic mga Pinoy kapag lampas na 1.6L.

    Don't worry, the plate will cover part of that.

    I like the front, more aggresive and sporty. Yung side profile, not so much.

    For us who tend grind our cars to the ground, would've preferred old school reliability over a few added MPGs via CVT. Granting they're now better than early versions, they're still the same intricate system of pulleys and belts working in a more synchronized way than regular ATs. More repeated movements of parts. More wear and tear quicker. More frequent CVT fluid changes. Good for short term service, not for keeps.[emoji53]

    adding the 1st gear improves their direct shift cvts reliability imo.

    Should extend life expectancy, but the eventual end would still mean assembly swap, not rehab.

    50,000 km and counting with my CVT and all good so far. CVTF change same as regular ATF (every 40k) with the same volume (4L). And this car isn't baby'ed at all. [emoji108]

    Hoping for the same reliable performance for the next hundred thousand km. [emoji120]

    I wish the same, sir. Many keep their cars for less than a decade. CVTs maybe fine for that. We have a few running beyond 2...regular ATs.
