• 2 variants, 1.8 E & 1.8 G
• Both share a 1.8-litre engine, CVT-type automatic
• 1.8 G gets full Toyota Safety Sense

Ahead of the all-new Toyota Corolla’s debut, UMW Toyota Motor has released the preliminary specifications of units bound for Malaysia.

In case you’re wondering, the all-new model will be known simply as Corolla, but the Altis badging will remain on the boot of the new sedan.

Unlike the predecessor model, the all-new Corolla will feature just one powertrain – a carried over 1.8-litre 2ZR-FE four-cylinder petrol engine with Dual VVT-i, paired to a CVT-type automatic that sends power to the front wheels. The engine is good for 139 PS at 6,400 rpm and 172 Nm of torque at 4,000 rpm.

The all-new Toyota Corolla is priced from:

• Corolla 1.8 E – RM 128,888
• Corolla 1.8 G – RM 136,888

UMW Toyota Motor is expected to introduce the all-new Corolla soon.
