2017 Toyota Corolla (Taiwan)
The facelifted 2017 Toyota Corolla has been spotted
undisguised in Taiwan, following its global launch in Russia in June. It is
reported to launch in Taiwan next month.
Changes to the exterior include redesigned front-end
with sleeker LED headlamps, radiator grille and bumper; new design 16- and
17-inch alloy wheels, thinner chrome boot applique and new LED-powered
taillamps. Three new exterior color choices have been introduced: Platinum
Bronze, Tokyo Red and Earth Bronze.
Changes are limited in the interior which features
new HVAC controls on the centre console and vents on the dashboard, improved
quality of materials and upholstery, and new standard Touch 2 infotainment
system with navigation.
In Taiwan, the facelifted Corolla is likely to
continue offering the 1.8L 2ZR-FE inline 4-cylinder petrol engine, which
produces 140 PS and 17.6 kgm of peak torque. The only transmission option is a
Super CVT-i that sends power to the front wheels.
