Apart From A Few Styling Updates, It Is Likely To Get An Updated Feature List Too

Have you been searching for a car that costs between Rs 15-20 lakh, doesn’t break down all the time, and is surprisingly elegant? The Toyota Corolla Altis facelift might just be the car you are hoping for! The Japanese carmaker will most likely launch the revamped Corolla Altis in India tomorrow. Here’s what we know about it so far.

This being a midlife update, the Corolla Altis will surely raise its standards, both inside and outside the cabin. In terms of exterior styling, the updated Altis will feature a more aggressive front end, thanks to a sporty new bumper, sharper grille design and modified front headlamps. At the rear, the car will get a restyled bumper and tail lamps. Inside, the refreshed D-segment sedan is expected to receive a more exhaustive list of features.

Under the hood, the car will, in all probability, carry the same choice of engines and transmissions from the current model. That means, customers opting for a diesel powerplant will have to settle for the 1.4-litre engine which churns out 88PS of power and 205Nm of torque. For others, the 1.8-litre petrol-powered mill, which produces 140PS of power and 173Nm of torque, will do the job. While the petrol engine is paired to a six-speed manual box or a seven-speed CVT, the diesel mill will be offered with a six-speed manual transmission only.

Bookings for the updated Toyota Corolla Altis began a while back. Once launched, it will fight harder for the throne of the D-segment sedan category in India. Its direct rivals include the feature-rich Hyundai Elantra and the powerful Skoda Octavia, which recently got a facelift and will make its way to India this year.
