An estimate, for the FX trim: fuel on its EPA figure and a dated national price, upkeep on a per-mile average for the kind of car it is.
Nobody has claimed one yet.
Since 1997 the Corolla has been the best-selling car nameplate in history, overtaking the VW Beetle -- Toyota passed 54 million sold by early 2026.
This is the last Corolla India ever got — Toyota never bothered re-engineering it for the country's 2020 emissions rules, so the model line simply ended there.
A humble Corolla Axio went racing in Japan's Super GT GT300 class with its engine moved to the middle of the car and a 3.5-litre V6 making over 300 PS in place of its usual four-cylinder.
The XRS version of this Corolla borrowed its high-revving 2ZZ-GE engine straight from the Celica GT-S and the Lotus Elise — a Yamaha co-developed, 8,200-rpm-redline motor hiding in an economy sedan.
A cost-cutting fix backfired: Toyota's attempt to curb oil burn on the non-VVT-i engines instead gave this Corolla generation a flawed piston ring design across the board.
The E100 Corolla was built with fewer body panels than its predecessor -- stronger, cheaper, and with tighter panel gaps for a cleaner shape.
The AE92 Corolla Levin and Trueno could be had with a Roots-type supercharger bolted to the usual 4A-GE engine — good for 50% more torque than the naturally aspirated version.
The Corolla FX hatchback almost never happened — it was just a sketch by chief designer Fumio Agetsuma until Toyota Australia’s marketing director saw it and demanded it be built.
The one millionth Corolla ever built was one of these, rolling off the line in February 1983.
Australia kept building this Corolla for years after Toyota replaced it everywhere else in August 1979.
Twin-cam Levin coupes of this generation skipped brake servos entirely, just to make the pedal feel sportier.
Toyota enlarged the first Corolla's engine late in development to 1,077cc purely to beat the Datsun 1000 by 100cc.
Same body, same money, other badges — tap any card to flip.
Even the 276-hp Elantra N skips the stick in China: this is the first Elantra generation built there since 2003 without a manual option at all.
After three straight generations riding on a torsion-beam rear axle, the B18 Sentra finally switched to independent rear suspension.
The 11th-generation Civic is the first since the late-1970s second generation not to offer any two-door body style.
One of the world's best-selling mid-size sedans skipped a market entirely for this generation: the 11th-gen Accord was never sold in Malaysia, after sales of the previous generation there kept declining.
After nine generations sold at home, Toyota finally built a Camry that Japan itself can't buy — the XV80 is assembled there purely for export.
The VA-generation WRX STI kept the previous generation's 2.5-liter EJ257 engine rather than adopting the new FA20 used in the standard WRX.
Dodge's wildest factory option: the 2022 'Jailbreak Edition' let buyers customize an 807-hp Hellcat Redeye Charger straight from the factory, as if breaking it free of a standard build sheet.
BMW tried charging G20 owners an annual subscription just to use Apple CarPlay — hardware already built into the car that cost BMW nothing to keep running. The backlash killed the fee within months.
