Oleh hal yang demikian, tidak mengejutkan apabila kadang kala sebuah model JDM yang jarang dijumpai muncul di Malaysia. Malaysia juga tidak kurang dengan lambakan peminat permotoran akibat kerana mempunyai jenama tempatan. Kali ini, kami menemui sebuah Toyota AE101

Since 1966, the Toyota Corolla nameplate has been one of the most enduring models in the brands' line-up. It is the best-selling model in the world, the most famous Corolla being the AE86 Sprinter Trueno, made famous by the manga Initial D. But did you know, it wasn't Toyota's first Corolla Sprinter Trueno model? That's right, the car you see right here is the AE86's predecessor, the TE27, and this is the first Corolla model to get the Trueno and Levin (Thunder and Lightning respectively in Span

There seems to be nothing stopping the Japanese giant and the world’s largest automotive company. According to Indonesia’s Autonetmagz, Toyota has filed a trademark for a brand-new model name called the BZ. The trademark has been filed through the US Patent Office on 22 May 2020.

To recap, many manufacturers in China have multiple joint ventures,

First things first. There is no such thing as a Proton S50. The name exists not on any Proton car but merely on a list of nameplates trademarked by Proton, along with the Proton V70 and Proton C50. Still, Malaysians have a very high level of interest in Proton and for whatever reason, S50 is fast becoming a trending topic. Where there’s smoke, there’s fire. Local Internet users have somehow collectively concluded that the Proton S50 is a natural successor to the Proton Preve/Proton Waja, nevermi

Mula-mula sekali, kami nak anda tahu yang Proton S50 tak wujud. Ia hanyalah salah satu nama dalam senarai plat nama/’nameplates’ yang ditanda-dagang oleh Proton, bersama-sama dengan Proton V70 dan Proton C50. Tapi, kami tahu rakyat Malaysia ada minat yang tinggi terhadap perkara-perkara berkaitan Proton dan kini S50 pantas menjadi topik popular yang baru untuk dijadikan ‘makanan’ peminat-peminat jenama P1 ini. Netizen di Malaysia seperti sudah membuat konklusi sendiri yang Proton S50 akan menjad

Ahead of it’s official reveal early tomorrow morning, a picture depicting what may very well be the 2020 Toyota Corolla Cross has surfaced online. Although it’s still unclear whether the image is a photo or a render, our initial impressions seem to show that this leaked design may not stray very far from the production model. The wheels look identical to the teaser we covered last week. Details such as the black plastic cladding around the sides and the styling on the rear third-quarter panel lo

Toyota C-HR Toyota Malaysia dalam diam sudah pun menggugurkan model Toyota C-HR dari laman web rasmi mereka. SUV dengan pesaing terdekat seperti Honda HR-V dan Subaru XV itu dijangka akan digantikan dengan model baharu, Toyota Corolla Cross.

Toyota Corolla Altis | Gallery The Corolla is Toyota's most storied nameplate. So steeped is its heritage that by the late ‘90s, the Corolla name had become too successful for its own good. The name had become a drag because younger buyers associated the name too much with their father's car. Thus explains the introduction of the "Altis" suffix. Irrespective of what it's called, the Corolla (Altis) has always stood for quality, dependability, and reliability. Toyota folks like to call it QDR. Ra

The Toyota Corolla nameplate is one of the most famous, longest-running, and best-selling nameplate in Toyota’s history, spanning a history of over 50 years. Currently on the 12th generation model, the Corolla name has its humble beginning in 1966 as a small, low-cost, and reliable family sedan, bearing the chassis code KE10. Two years later, the KE10 Toyota Corolla made its way to Malaysia, where it was assembled by Champion Motor Berhad located in Shah Alam, which subsequently renamed as Assem

Toyota Corolla Altis dahulu pernah mengecap kemuncak masa kegemilangannya. Jumlah jualan bukan saja terjejas di Malaysia, tapi juga di Thailand dimana Toyota sepatutnya jadi salah satu raja di pasaran negara itu. Malah, walaupun setelah mengambil kira jualan barisan Corolla Altis kepada syarikat-syarikat teksi Bangkok yang terkenal, lebih separuh daripada pasaran sedan segmen C di Thailand masih didominasi oleh Honda Civic. Ini merupakan satu perubahan besar dari 20 tahun yang lalu, pada ketika

Toyota Corolla Cross即将登陆我国,这就是目前我们知道的所有消息了。但是,价格呢?产地呢?它到底是属于哪个级别的呢?透过基于自身知识的推理,我们将为大家一一解答这些问题。 Q:哪些车是Toyota Corolla Cross的竞争对手? A:Toyota Corolla Cross将与Honda HR-V、Subaru XV、Proton X50以及Proton X70进行竞争,这些车型的价格范围都较为接近。 Q:说到价格,Toyota Corolla Cross会卖多少钱呢? A:目前官方尚未公布售价,因此我们仅仅只能猜测。而为了做出更准确的估计,我们首先要确定Toyota Corolla Cross会在哪里进行生产。据有关消息称,位于Bukit Raja的汽车工厂正为一款新SUV的生产进行预备工作——我们认为它很可能就是Toyota Corolla Cross。 作为一款本地组装车型,我们预计其标价将会低于整车进口的Toyota C-HR,后者最新的成交价格为RM 144,336。作为参考,从泰国进口的Toyota Corolla Altis标价在RM 123,9

We’ve previously reported a spy shot of the upcoming Toyota Corolla Cross and determined that the SUV will be coming with a big spoiler on its back. Now we have our first look of the front-end. It looks like Toyota is pulling all the stops to prevent us from even predicting the general shape of the car. As the front-end was heavily camouflaged and came complete with cut-out shapes created to deliberately confuse us. But from what little we can see it looks like the Corolla Cross will have a LED

Tonight at 8.30 pm, UMW Toyota Motor will be live streaming (in 8D audio, a first for a local car launch) the launch of its Toyota Corolla Cross, the company’s most important new model for 2021. To be priced not too far away from a Corolla Altis, the Corolla Cross will fill the void left behind by the now-discontinued (in Malaysia) Toyota C-HR. UPDATE: Toyota Corolla Cross has been launched, priced from RM 124k, details here. Curiously, the Corolla Cross’s mechanicals are almost identical to the

Sebuah SUV yang disamarkan ditemui dipandu di Malaysia dan berdasarkan pemerhatian kami pada rupa parasnya, ia tak lain tak bukan Toyota Corolla Cross 2020! Apabila Corolla Cross membuat debutnya pada awal bulan Julai, kami juga menjangkakan yang SUV ini akan sampai di Malaysia sebagai unit dipasang tempatan (CKD) hujung tahun ini atau awal 2021. Nampaknya jangkaan kami tepat kerana kereta ini telahpun dipandu-uji di jalanraya kita. Menurut rakan kami di Careta, lokasi penampakan SUV ini kurang

A heavily camouflaged SUV has been spotted on the roads and based on what we can make of the SUV’s outline, it can’t be anything else but the 2020 Toyota Corolla Cross! When the Corolla Cross made its debut earlier in July, we also estimated that the SUV will be coming to Malaysia as a locally-assembled (CKD) unit by the end of this year or early next 2021. Looks like our predictions are spot-on now that the car has been spotted on our roads. According to our friends in Careta, the location the

Back in March, we reported that that Toyota will be introducing the Toyota Corolla Cross, a new model that is positioned below the Toyota C-HR. A teaser from Toyota Thailand has indicated that the new crossover will make its global debut on 9-July, which is next Thursday. To recap, although the Toyota Corolla Cross uses the Corolla name, it is not a jacked-up version of the Corolla hatchback (sold in the USA, Europe, Australia, and Japan). Yes, it will be built on the TNGA-C platform (like the C

The 2020 Toyota Corolla Cross made its global debut in early July and it could prove to be the much-needed catalyst for UMW Toyota Motor to compete in the hotly-contested B-segment SUV market when it arrives here later this year. Here’s a little bit of background to as why the UMWT needs the Corolla Cross in its line-up. Recall back in 2015 when Honda Malaysia introduced the Honda HR-V. UMWT had to watch on the sidelines as they did not have a model to compete against the HR-V. Further rubbing s

According to a document sighted by WapCar.my, UMW Toyota Motor (UMWT) will begin sales training for the 2021 Toyota Corolla Cross sometime in May. This points toward the SUV making its Malaysian launch sometime in the second half of this year. However, the date is still subject to change - it all still depends on how the Covid-19 situation progresses. What do we know of the Malaysian-spec Corolla Cross? The document also mentions that the Malaysian-spec Corolla Cross will come in two variants, t

Toyota Corolla Altis Toyota Corolla Altis antara sebuah nama yang dikenali di Malaysia, tapi tanggapannya bergantung kepada generasi mana yang anda kenali. Pada para pembaca kita yang lebih berumur, pasti anda ingat model generasi AE101 dan KE70. Mereka akan memberitahu anda kenapa Toyota Corolla jauh lebih baik dari Honda Civic.

Toyota Corolla Altis Tahukah anda, tanda nama Corolla merupakan tanda nama terlaris di dunia dengan angka jualan sebanyak 44 juta unit (masih bertambah) sepanjang 12 generasi?
