Toyota Corolla refreshed edition

The Toyota Corolla is the best-selling car of all time with over 50 million units sold. It has been produced since 1966 in 12 generations, while the arrival of the new generation is announced for this year. However, before that happens, the Japanese manufacturer has presented a refreshed edition.

The refreshed edition brings 10 new body colors, of which Metal Oxide stands out. This color is offered exclusively with a black roof in the Hatchback and Touring Sport versions, while the sedan version is also available in Metal Oxide, and buyers can choose a roof in body color or in black. The side mirrors are in glossy black, and all models with Mid+ equipment come with 17-inch wheels with silver and black finishes and star-shaped center caps.

Inside, the steering wheel and gear lever are covered in synthetic leather. Hatchback and Touring Sports buyers with the Mid+ equipment package can choose upholstery made of recycled fabric.

Toyota did not say there were any changes under the bonnet, meaning the options are a 1.8-L hybrid engine with 140 hp and a 2.0-L hybrid engine with 196 hp. It should also be noted that all versions come with the new generation Toyota Safety Sense package as standard.

Sales of the refreshed Toyota Corolla will start this month, when the price will be announced.

Toyota is developing a new Celica

In November 2024, Toyota announced that it is working on the return of a car that was discontinued almost two decades ago, the Toyota Celica. Although there is not much information about the car, rumor has it that it will be produced under the name GR Celica.

Toyota Celica was produced from 1970 to 2006 in seven generations. During 36 years, over 4 million units left the production line in various four-cylinder engines, and body styles included convertibles, liftbacks, and notchback coupés.

“We are working on the Celica. There are many people in the company who are eagerly awaiting the Toyota Celica. I wonder if it is okay to say this in public, but we are building a new Toyota Celica,” said Toyota VP Yuki Nakajima.

There is currently a lot of speculation about the new Celica. Some rumors say that it could be powered by a new turbocharged 2.0-L 4-cylinder engine with 406 hp, and that it will have all-wheel drive. However, some have hinted that it could be all-electric. This is all unofficial, and Toyota will release more information soon.

The new Toyota electric SUV will be launched on March 12

Toyota will launch its new electric car on March 12. Although the name is not yet known, a teaser suggests that it could be the production version of the bZ Compact SUV.

Toyota has not released any details about this car, but some information suggests that the electric crossover will be 4.54 meters long and 1.56 meters high, which means that it will be smaller than the Toyota bZ4X. Toyota has promised that the new car will be spacious, comfortable and emotionally appealing.

When it comes to the powertrain, it is speculated that it will have similar specifications to the recently introduced Urban Cruiser EV. This means a front-wheel drive version with 144 or 174 hp (depending on the battery), and an all-wheel drive version with 184 hp. Speaking of batteries, there are two battery packs, 49 and 61 kWh.
