2007 Toyota Corolla – Leaked Brochure pictures

Just_me · 09-06-2006, 12:54 AM

Although its rumored that the 2007 - 2008 Model Year Toyota Corolla will be officially revealed in Japan in mid October (some even say that we might see a concept version at the Paris International Motor Show this month), we've been seeing quite a lot of scanned pics lately.

This time Nihoncarandbike site has posted a whole set of scanned pics from a Japanese car magazine called Driver. By the looks of it, these pictures are from a leaked brochure kit that fell in the hands of the magazine's reporters. Judging from the scanned images, the 10th Generation of the Corolla seems to be inspired from the latest Yaris and Avensis models (Toyota's European mid-sized sedan).

Not pretty.
Toyota has announced that this time it will not be called Corolla... apparently 'Auris' is what everyone is betting on.

I still can't see anything. I hope the new Corolla doesn't look like an egg like the new Yaris.

Darn that Corolla is hideous. Draws inspiration from the Yaris I see, which is like drawing inspiration from a tractor to design a car.

looks like a mixture between the current model and the Yaris, and it looks dead boring. The Honda Civic hatch kills it. The interior is a sea of grey. So this is what they have come up with after the order to reskin the new design. massively disappointed.

Now i see the photos. It looks cheap and boring just like it should. Toyota buyers don't care about design anyway so this is going to be a hit for sure.

Yeah, this is certainly a bit of a disappointment. It looks pretty featureless and egg-like, though admittedly the photo angles don't help one bit.

I'm still holding out some hope - but only the faintest glimmer. Plus, why would you throw away the Corolla nameplate? Nissan tried it here with replacing "Pulsar" with "Tiida" - and flopped, possibly because the name was unfamiliar, because it was not easy to pronounce for Westerners, and also probably because it's a crap car.

Well, the Civic isn't to my liking, Nissan's Tiida or Verso or whatever sux, and this Corolla isn't so crash hot either. Bring on the next Mazda 3, Impreza and Lancer.
