Toyota Corolla LWB for China
Last Updated:
It looks like Toyota will offer two versions of the Corolla in China.
I have seen luxury cars being sold with longer wheelbase versions. From Audi, BMW, Mercedes, etc… But I had no idea a car like the Corolla would make that list.
That illustration above also looks quite off. It only mentions a difference of about 3 inches, but the lower car seems to have a much longer wheelbase.
Who knows…
That illustration sucks. The Chinese "LWB" Corolla is just going to be America's Corolla Sedan which comes with the 106" wheelbase. The international Corolla sedan comes with a 103" wheelbase.
Bad photochop.. I doubt they'll even change the rear door glass, probably just increase the thickness of the B-pillar.
The Corolla hatchback and all the Corollas for the Japanese market has a wheelbase of 2,640 mm (103.9 in).
The Corolla sedan and wagon sold in the US and internationally has a wheelbase of 2,700 mm (106.3 in).
The image says 2,800 mm which is 110.2 inches, so almost 4 inches longer than the normal version.
