January 25, 2008 – Torrance, CA – Nearly 40 years after the Corolla was introduced to American drivers, an all-new Toyota Corolla, now in it’s 10th generation will continue to offer the quality and value for which the brand has long been known.

New Toyota Corolla better than ever

Originally launched in 1966, Corolla first arrived in America in 1968 to instant success. For nearly four decades, Corolla has been synonymous with Toyota quality, style and value, earning a distinction as one of the most trusted cars in America. Over that span more than 30 million Corollas have been sold worldwide, making it one of the best-selling cars of all time.

The new Toyota Corolla remains true to the brand’s role as a subcompact sedan, with dimensions similar to the model it replaces. But it offers an all-new body with a lean, muscular shape, and it delivers increased interior and luggage room, more power, more economical engines and an all-new chassis and suspension.
