Toyota unveils 2014 Corolla sedan

Published On Jun 07, 2013 10:59 AM By Amit for Toyota Corolla

Few days back, the world's largest car manufacturer, Toyota Motor Corporation teased some of the pictures of the next generation Corolla sedan, and now on 6th June, the company has officially unveiled the vehicle. The all new 2014 Corolla comes equipped with dramatically amplified elements of style, design, quality and craftsmanship, while building upon the stellar Corolla reputation for reliability, efficiency and function, making Toyota’s newest compact the most surprising and capable Corolla yet.

The all-new Toyota Corolla has a more expressive and dynamic exterior design that elaborates on the "Iconic Dynamism" theme first seen on the Corolla Furia Concept that debuted at the North American International Auto Show. The new vehicle comes with a longer wheelbase, and is 3.90 inches longer overall then the outgoing model, and yet gives an impression of a more compact vehicle than the current version, thanks to the basic shape that tapers at the front and rear of the vehicle to help emphasize the wheel arches and wheels-to-the-corner stance.

The new Corolla features an expressive front fascia with sharper, more pronounced details above a large trapezoidal grill that rests beneath a thin intake inlet below the hood. The front view of the new Corolla reveals a continuation of the design themes seen in recent Toyota sedans such as Camry and Avalon, and it creates a sleeker, more assertive impression of a Toyota compact sedan with its more precisely sculpted surfaces. It is the first compact sedan to offer standard equipped LED headlamps.

The interiors of the new Corolla complements the exteriors, as it continues the "Iconic Dynamism" theme to develop a stylish, highly functional and inviting interior space. A horizontally oriented dash structure helps enhance the interior’s sense of spaciousness while providing a more wide-open, intuitively functional space for interface with vehicle controls. Depending on interior color theme, blue, black or amber pinstriped accents are used in conjunction with the dash and door panel ornamentation to enhance the premium appeal of the interior. An available decorative boot with ornamental stitching surrounding the shift lever adds a sporty, premium look.

The increase on wheelbase by 3.93 inch, certainly help the company to improve the Corolla's interiors in  terms of passenger comfort, gaining considerable legroom for the rear seat occupants. Rear seat comfort is also enhanced with the use of denser urethane pads and foam inserts within the seats. To offer pleasant and noise free environment to passengers the new Corolla comes equipped with an acoustic glass windscreen, improved floor carpet insulation, an instrument panel seal between the cowl and the windshield, a fender sound insulator, and an inner dash silencer pad.

Corolla’s standard gauge cluster offers three dials with sharp image detail and clear blue illumination, surrounded by chrome trimmed rings. Within the speedometer dial is a multi-information display that shows odometer, trip odometer, current fuel consumption, average fuel consumption, cruising distance and average vehicle speed. The S-grade meter cluster offers a high technology feel with a 3.5-inch black and white TFT display that rests between two large dials.

The next generation Corolla offers two efficient 1.8-litre, an all-aluminum four-cylinder engines. The base 1.8-liter unit with VVT-i is available on the L, LE, and S grades and is rated at 132 horsepower. The Corolla’s new LE Eco trim level is equipped with a 1.8-liter engine with Valvematic , a valve train technology which appears for the first time in North America with Corolla. Valvematic offers a broader range of continuously variable valve timing (lift and phasing) to provide optimal intake valve (not on exhaust side) operation relative to engine demands. Valvematic offers more than a five-percent improvement in fuel economy and engine output (140 horsepower).

The 2014 Corolla also offers improved fuel economy thanks to its advanced Continuously Variable Transmission. This CVTi-S (i for intelligent, S for shift), which will be available on the LE, S, and LE Eco Corolla models, features several enhancements to improve its efficiency and driving performance with discrete shift points that help create a sensation more similar to a traditional hydraulic automatic transmission.
