Toyota Corolla Live Pictures

Live shots from the Corolla reveal. The white car is the “Eco” model, while the grey car is the LE. The red “S” was featured prominently throughout the reveal. Anybody more interested in Junkyard Finds can click the jump.

Let’s hit the re-wind switch to a time before beige …

B&B, is ths a KE10 or one of the “Peanut/Mangro” TE27 Coupes?

This is most definitely a shooting brake. Unfortunately, the crappy lighting doesn’t do justice to how nice this car is.

The malaise era ‘Rolla

And, oddly enough, an FX16 instead of an AE86. I guess Toyota didn’t want to pay California asking prices ($4000 for a clapped out, primered SR5-GTS conversion)

Surprisingly, I like this update, but I would never choose a corolla over a comparable scion tc as the tc has a far superior drive-train and has a hatch, the downside being you are stuck with a 2 door.

This is a vast improvement over the outgoing one, though I agree there's no excuse for a 4-speed in 2014. Wish they'd dump those "sporty" wheels though, as they wouldn't look good on any car. I remember as a young kid seeing lots of those hatchback FX16s. So many go-faster details on the sides!

Rna65689660 For such a flat surface, why not get smoke tint, Rtint or Rvynil. Starts at $8. I used to use a company called Lamin-x, but I think they are gone. Has held up great.
Cprescott A cheaper golf cart will not make me more inclined to screw up my life. I can go 500 plus miles on a tank of gas with my 2016 ICE car that is paid off. I get two weeks out of a tank that takes from start to finish less than 10 minutes to refill. At no point with golf cart technology as we know it can they match what my ICE vehicle can do. Hell no. Absolutely never.

Jeff This is a step in the right direction with the Murano gaining a 9 speed automatic. Nissan could go a little further and offer a compact pickup and offer hybrids. VoGhost--Nissan has  laid out a new plan to electrify 16 of the 30 vehicles it produces by 2026, with the rest using internal combustion instead. For those of us in North America, the company says it plans to release seven new vehicles in the US and Canada, although it’s not clear how many of those will be some type of EV.Nissan says the US is getting “e-POWER and plug-in hybrid models” — each of those uses a mix of electricity and fuel for power. At the moment, the only all-electric EVs Nissan is producing are the  Ariya SUV and the  perhaps endangered (or  maybe not) Leaf.In 2021, Nissan said it would  make 23 electrified vehicles by 2030, and that 15 of those would be fully electric, rather than some form of hybrid vehicle. It’s hard to say if any of this is a step forward from that plan, because yes, 16 is bigger than 15, but Nissan doesn’t explicitly say how many of those 16 are all-battery, or indeed if any of them are.  https://www.theverge.com/2024/3/25/24111963/nissan-ev-plan-2026-solid-state-batteries
Jkross22 Sure, but it depends on the price. All EVs cost too much and I'm talking about all costs. Depreciation, lack of public/available/reliable charging, concerns about repairability (H/K). Look at the battering the Mercedes and Ford EV's are taking on depreciation. As another site mentioned in the last few days, cars aren't supposed to depreciate by 40-50% in a year or 2.
