The 12th gen Corolla has been spotted testing on numerous occasions while there are plenty of speculative renderings based on the hatchback, to give us a pretty good idea of how it’s going to look like.
In China, Toyota operates two joint ventures FAW-Toyota and GAC-Toyota, both of which develops their own iterations of Corolla. And it’s quite likely for the 12th gen Corolla to have two different designs in China, available for sale in parallel.
Toyota has replaced the 11th gen Corolla in less than six years after it was introduced in 2013. In Pakistan the 11th gen Corolla reached in June 2014, so we might expect the new generation to reach our market by 2020, completing its 6-year lifespan.
