Toyota Corolla Altis

Corolla the best selling car in the world, will be going a Generation ahead in India with the launch of the 10thgeneration Corolla also known as the Altis on 5thof September this year. The new Altis is longer and wider than the current Corolla, the new Corolla’s frontal appearance has a distinct family resemblance and looks like a scaled down Camary, rear tail lamps have a distinctive 3D form but are similar to the current car, the new car is expected to come with a 1.8 liter petrol engine, with steering mounted controls and all other bells and whistles. The new Altis is much more comfortable than Corolla, rear seat comfort is outstanding, there are lots of storage space, door pockets are nice and deep, legroom is marginally better and wider than before and the boot is huge too. The ride is soft and the new suspension setup makes it much more comfortable, but the handling isn’t all that entertaining. The new Altis, expected to be priced at around 10-14 lakhs, is a huge improvement over the present car, but the question is ’Can it beat the Civic in terms of sales and customer satisfaction?’, only time will tell.
