Review: All-new 2019 Toyota Corolla Altis is here to battle the Civic

Toyota Corolla Altis | Gallery The Corolla is Toyota's most storied nameplate. So steeped is its heritage that by the late ‘90s, the Corolla name had become too successful for its own good. The name had become a drag because younger buyers associated the name too much with their father's car. Thus explains the introduction of the "Altis" suffix. Irrespective of what it's called, the Corolla (Altis) has always stood for quality, dependability, and reliability. Toyota folks like to call it QDR. Ra

Above a certain price point, car buying starts to become a game of desire versus rationale. At RM 140,000, you could easily get a used F30 BMW 3 Series or a W212 Mercedes-Benz E-Class. That's desire talking. The rationale in you would be screaming maintenance cost and reliability. For peace of mind then, you turn to new cars and for the longest time, the Toyota Corolla has been the embodiment of rationale. It will probably outlast cockroaches and sweep used car dealers' feet off. Those who want
