Next Generation Corolla
#91
Ok, so ffwd 2 years..... what's the progress on the design on the next Corolla? When is it due? Seeing that the 10th gen's release was delayed in the US, is it going to have a shorter model cycle, or will other markets get the 11th gen before the US or a longer model cycle?

well, Corolla Sedan just got facelifted this year... so possibly 1.5-2 years until new model in many worldwide markets.
Auris (Corolla Hatch) got facelift 1 full year sooner and I expect brand new one early next year, possibly showing it at Tokyo this year.

This is what I wish Toyota USA should have instead of the US Corolla Matrix:
Auris (Corolla):
Or even this, Avensis Wagon:

Well, I finally saw the "finished" product last week. I'm sure there's still some tweaking to be done, as the vehicle isn't going to be released until roughly 2013, but for the most part, it's an improvement on the Corolla we have now! ^_^
I am not at liberty to share much, but..... in terms of overall body design, think recent Kia and Hyundai designs.
That's all I'll say

That doesn't sound very promising to me...
Two years away? Or next year as a 2013 model? Two years away is too long, IMO.
"...for the most part, it's an improvement on the Corolla we have now." That's really not saying much and you don't sound very sure that it's a notable improvement. The current Corolla is an embarassing joke and really has been since the beginning. I don't care how many they sell or have sold previously...this generation has been riding on the laurels of it's own name, and I think it's hard to deny that. The new Corolla needs to be undoubtedly, unequivocally better, more advanced, better looking and more capable than the current car. An improvement, "for the most part" is certainly setting it up to fail.
Similar to recent Kia and Hyundai designs? The new Elantra is ungodly ugly and while I like the Forte, it will be close to a redesign in two years. This is very concerning as well...
