Toyota Motor Thailand has just introduced the all-new twelfth-generation Corolla Altis in the Kingdom, available in 6 variants.

The variants include:

• Limo – THB 829,000

• Hybrid Entry – THB 939,000

For the first-time ever, Toyota is offering a hybrid variant of the all-new Corolla Altis, powered by the same 1.8-litre hybrid powertrain as the C-HR Hybrid. The hybrid powertrain in the Corolla Altis is good for a combined system output of 122 PS.

Toyota Motor Thailand is also offering the all-new Corolla Altis with the choice of a 1.6- or a 1.8-litre naturally-aspirated four-cylinder petrol engine. The smaller 1.6-litre engine is good for 125 PS and 156 Nm, while the larger 1.8-litre unit does 140 PS and 177 Nm. Both petrol engines receive a CVT-type automatic transmission with 7 virtual ratios.

As speculated earlier, our ASEAN market Corolla Altis looks similar to the FAW Toyota version of the Corolla sedan that is currently on sale in China. The FAW Toyota version is one of the three global front faces of the new Corolla sedan.
