The platform should be an evolution of the current TNGA-C. The proportions should remain close to those of the current model (4,63m long, 2,70m wheelbase). There may be a slight gain in the wheelbase to improve interior space.
Powertrain: new hybrid, turbo engine and flex options
Significant changes are expected under the hood. The current 2.0 naturally aspirated engine should give way to a turbo, possibly the 1.5 Turbo already used in other markets. This should bring more efficiency and performance. The hybrid system will also undergo a major update. A new generation of hybrid system from Toyota.
It will probably combine a 1.8 or 2.0 engine with more powerful electric motors. More modern lithium-ion batteries are expected to be adopted. The possibility of a plug-in hybrid exists, but there are still no confirmed details about autonomy. For Brazil, Toyota will certainly maintain the versions Flex (gasoline/ethanol). The technology Hybrid Flex, already used in the Corolla Cross, is a strong candidate for the sedan.
Enhanced security and technology
In safety, the new generation of Toyota Corolla 2026 should bring advances. The latest version of the package is expected Toyota Safety Sense. This includes assistance such as adaptive cruise control, lane keeping assist and automatic emergency braking. The mandatory airbags and stability and traction controls will continue to be present.

The arrival of new generation of Toyota Corolla 2026 is eagerly awaited. The global debut is expected to take place at the end of 2025, as a 2026 model. The launch in the Brazilian market could happen soon after, possibly in early 2026. Toyota will continue to rely on the strength of the Corolla name and its reputation to attract consumers.
If you bring more of the same, the Chinese will eat it with flour.
That's not the biggest problem.
The problem is the absurd price that this automaker has become accustomed to charging Brazilian consumers.
You shouldn't talk nonsense, take the taxes out of the final price of the car and you'll see if it's the automaker that's taking a bite out of the consumer's pocket. You live in Brazil, one of the countries with the highest taxes in the world.
That's it. Gonveno takes a lot.
Apart from the IPVA + Mandatory Insurance (it will definitely come back) + Insurance with a private company + expensive tolls on roads built with public money!
Having a car is becoming unfeasible!
I agree with you. And you still haven't mentioned the fines. Which always appear.
The price of cars in Brazil is extortionate, not just Toyota, all car manufacturers. Cars cost what they are not worth. But the people pay, so take it
**** are those who buy if sales reduce they move here to Japan for the price of a Corolla Sport there in Brazil it would be possible to buy one here in Japan with a higher level of quality pay for shipping to Brazil and still have money left over
Yes, you bet!! 🤣🤣🤣🤣
BYD the Corolla killer, hahahaha, doesn't even sell 10% of the amount of Corollas.
Perfect! It would only improve the curvature of the rear light, which is now a single bar that connects to the side ones.
What about the engines?
Insurance has to cover everything, imagine the price of this taillight, it's ****
The Price???
If this one is 170 the new one from 200 at least
You can be sure it won't be less than 200 thousand, easy peasy
It's not for your beak!
