Εγώ να σας ξενερώσω όλους αλλά να σας χαροποιήσω κιόλας...... διαβάστε :

Automotive News reported yesterday that Toyota has decided to leave the current Corolla on the market for an extra year and delay its replacement until 2008. This will be the current generation's sixth year on the market, which is a record and breaks the company's long-standing tradition of redesigning vehicles after their fifth model year.

Toyota cites the redistribution of engineering resources to ensure a smooth launch for the redesigned Camry as the main reason for the delay. Other automotive news outlets are speculating that the real reason is because Honda's new Civic has forced Toyota to go back to the drawing board.

For our part, we believe Toyota. The Honda Civic is currently enjoying a 17.1% increase in sales through the first six months of 2006 and has moved 165,056 units. Despite the Honda's critical success, the Corolla continues to steam roll its competition, including the new Civic, with a 38.7% increase in sales during the first half of the year, selling nearly 200,000 units. Clearly the Corolla can hold its own for one more year, which gives Toyota 365 more days to build a better Civic slayer.


Το σίγουρο λοιπόν κια ευχάριστο είναι ότι θα έχουμε νέο μοντέλο Corolla παρά τα διάφορα ράδιο-αρβύλα που κυκλοφορούσανε. Το κακό είναι ότι πάμε για πιο πίσω ακόμα. (Βέβαια αυτό το κείμενο αφορά την αμρικάνικη αγορά, αλλά νομίζω ότι όλους μας παίρνει η μπάλα!)

Επίσης, πολύ ενδιαφέρον ότι το νέο Civic (το οποίο πραγματικά είναι πολύ ωραίο), δεν καταφέρνει -στις πωλήσεις- να απειλήσει ενα "γερασμένο" μοντέλο!

Και οι δηλώσεις της Toyota U.S.

Toyota Motor Corp.'s Corolla, the world's best-selling small , will keep its current design for a record sixth year, until 2008, as the automaker focuses on rolling out other new models.

"There was a decision to be made regarding engineering resources," John Hanson, a spokesman for Toyota's U.S. unit, said in an interview. "We decided to let Corolla go a little longer, mainly because Corolla has been such a huge sales success compared with where we thought it would be at this stage of its life cycle."

U.S. sales of Corolla sedans and the Matrix hatchback climbed 13 percent in the first half of 2006 as gasoline -- at almost $3 a gallon -- helped propel demand for compacts such as Corolla and its key competitor, Honda Motor Co.'s Civic.

Toyota has sold more than 30 million Corollas since the model debuted in Japan in 1966. None of its previous designs has been on the market for more than five years, according to Toyota's Web site. The current version was released in March 2002.

Ensuring a smooth release of the new midsize Camry sedan, Toyota's top-selling U.S. model, was a primary reason for slowing the Corolla schedule, Hanson said.

"We were using essentially all engineering resources to make sure Camry launched on time," Hanson said. "We are very comfortable that the current generation Corolla would be just fine for an additional year."

Corolla sales in the U.S. this year totaled 197,303 through June, compared with 174,054 a year earlier.

Οπως εύκολα καταλαβαίνει κανείς, όλα τα σχέδια πάνε στον βρόντο μάλλον, καθώς το design του Civic του ταρακούνησε αρκετά! Πλέον -προσωπικά- θα περιμένω κάτι αρκετά διαφορετικό σε σχέση με το τωρινό μοντέλο!

....και για να τελειώσω αυτό το αρκετά μεγάλο πόστ...... ορίστε το κερασάκι στην τούρτα :

- will arrive in late 2007 as a 2008 model

- slightly larger

- more power and safety

- will ride on new MC platform (variable length and width ajustments)

- will ride on longer wheelbase with overall length, width, and height up slightly with improved stance

- applications of high strenth steel are expected to boost the platforms stiffness and rigidity, while improving safety performance (should add to an improved ride and handling over the current model)

- the next corollas exterior design is expected to be more adventursome

- styling is likely to share some of the camrys front end design

- a new [acronym:89cdca1550="ΔΙΑΦΟΡΑ"]COROLLA[/acronym:89cdca1550] COUPE will offer a sportier design statement, will use unique parts to differentiate it from the 4 door sedan. Is intended to be a spiritual sucessor to the Celica.

- both the sedan and coupe are expected to share the instrament panel and most features and content. the shift lever will be moved higher up like on the matrix. the interior design will reveal improved materials. expect side and curtain airbags, abs, stability control on the car, allthough toyota tends to make some of them optional.

- the engine will be up to 2.0 liter, 150 horsepower at 6250 RPM, 146 torque at 4500 RPM (the coupe will have 200 HP at 6250 RPM and 135 torque at 4000 RPM) the coupe will have the same 2.0 liter engine.

- a new continuously variable transmission is planned for the base 2.0 liter engine and will likely be a version of Toyotas "super CVT" tuned tuned to allow up/down shifts at six or seven pre selected steps. A 5 speed manual will also be offered and a 6 speed offered on the sportier models. Suspenson will use struts in front with new multi link rear suspension likely to replace the current cars torsion- beam set up.

- rack and pinion steering

- disc brakes front, disc brakes rear, abs

- front wheel drive (no rear wheel drive offered)

.......σας τσάκωσα.. όλοι την λέξη Coupe γλυκοκοιτάξατε, ε?
Μακάρι να έρθει ελλάδα

(Ούφ τελείωσα!!!!)

στο ραδιο ακουσα για υβριδικο civic
like prius........

[Ayrton]

και καταλήγω με αυτό που βρήκα μόλις ψάχνωντας, το οποίο επιβεβαιώνει απόλυτα τον αιφνιδιασμό της Honda :

Toyota U.S. sales arm was chosen to receive its version of the redesigned Corolla after the Japanese and European markets, Danzer said.

But one analyst says Toyota was caught off guard by the stylish 2006 Honda Civic.

"Some people within Toyota want to make their cars more edgy," says Jim Hall, an AutoPacific analyst in Southfield, Mich. "The delay gives these people the opportunity to counter the more conservative Toyota contingent and do a car more in tune with the U.S. market.

Βέβαια εδώ δίνεται η ελπίδα ότι η Ευρώπη θα δεί πριν την αμερική την νέα Corolla! Και αυτό επειδή στην αμερική δεν συντρέχει λόγος να διακόψεις ένα μοντέλο που ακόμα πουλάει σαν τρελλό (το Camry).
