New Derivative Model of the Corolla Will Innovate with Plug-in Hybrid Powertrain and Bold Design, Offering an Efficient and Modern Experience for Brazilian Consumers

The Brazilian automotive market is about to witness the arrival of a true revolution: Toyota, known for its innovation and reliability, will launch a pickup version of its popular Toyota Corolla. Expected for 2027, the model brings technological innovations that promise to attract an audience looking for more energy efficiency and performance in the mid-size pickup segment, according to the website IstoÉ.

A Hybrid Pickup for Brazil

This pickup version of the Corolla will offer a plug-in hybrid powertrain, a significant differentiator for those seeking greater energy efficiency and lower environmental impact. The combination of the electric motor and the combustion engine provides the best of both worlds, allowing for efficient driving in various scenarios. The Corolla Pickup promises to compete directly with established models such as the Fiat Toro and the Ford Maverick, bringing a new option to the market.

Power and Efficiency in Performance

With a robust and efficient platform, the Corolla Pickup will be built on the TNGA-C platform, the same used by the Corolla sedan. This choice reflects Toyota’s strategy to optimize resources and offer more affordable and technological products. The hybrid powertrain will be the major highlight, featuring a 2.0 flex aspirated engine combined with an electric motor, resulting in up to 223 hp of combined power.

Modern Design Focused on Lifestyle

The Corolla Pickup will showcase a modern and bold design, inspired by the Toyota EPU concept, displayed at the Tokyo Motor Show. This design is aimed at attracting a young and modern audience, with an emphasis on lifestyle and the needs of today’s consumer. The proposal is to create a versatile model capable of transitioning between work demands and leisure moments.

Furthermore, the Corolla Pickup will be equipped with an innovative transmission system: while the combustion versions will feature a traditional CVT, the hybrid versions will use an e-CVT. This combination of technologies will offer a smoother and more efficient driving experience, perfectly adapting to the preferences of Brazilian drivers.
