An exciting new era for Corolla


  • Corolla name adopted globally for the new generation Toyota’s C-segment Hatchback, Sedan and Wagon models to be launched in Europe early 2019, replacing the Auris nameplate.
  • The naming coincides with Corolla’s adoption of the #toyota New Global Architecture (TNGA), replacing the three current different platforms.
  • The three #corolla body types will benefit from the latest hybrid technology.
  • Corolla is the world’s best-selling model nameplate, with more than 45 million vehicles sold since its introduction in 1966

Toyota’s new generation C-segment Hatchbacks, Sedans and Wagons will carry the #corolla name globally, building on its worldwide credentials as the best-selling model in #automotive history. The Auris nameplate will be discontinued with the introduction of the New Generation #corolla early 2019.

The new naming coincides with #corolla adopting the common #toyota New Global Architecture (TNGA), replacing the current three different platforms.  

“The TNGA engineering and design philosophy brings a whole new dimension to our next generation C-segment models. Adding to Corolla’s renowned Quality, Durability and Reliability, it delivers the more emotional values that our customers aspire to, such as a distinctive design, interior refinement, rewarding driving dynamics and powerful yet efficient hybrid powertrains,” said Dr Johan van Zyl, President & CEO of #toyota Motor Europe. “There is no better moment than the launch of the upcoming new generation model to re-introduce the #corolla name to our C-segment hatchback and wagon models.”

The new #corolla Touring Sports will have its world premiere in Paris Motor Show alongside the Hatchback, both in their Hybrid version.
