by New Toyota Corolla Concept
Toyota has announced numerous premieres at Japan Mobility Show 2025, among which a concept showcasing the future of the legendary Corolla model stands out particularly.
Key features of the concept
Styling and design
The concept was presented in the “To You Toyota” video campaign before the official premiere in Tokyo. It differs radically from the current twelfth generation Corolla, having sharp lines and proportions characteristic of electric vehicles.
The front features a new version of Toyota’s “hammerhead” face with full-size LED headlights that combine horizontal and vertical lines. The concept lacks a radiator grille, but has a small air intake in the lower part of the bumper and a discreet opening on the hood near the windshield.
Side view and rear
From the side, the model resembles a four-door sedan that could continue the Corolla legacy. The front fenders likely have a charging port located next to a new vertical element under the mirror. Other interesting details include a descending window line, sculpted doors, and conventional door handles.
The rear is characterized by an integrated spoiler in the shape of a ducktail at the end of the sloping roof. Sharp lines transition into full-size rear lights with pixel graphics. On the flat trunk lid, the Corolla inscription can be seen, and the license plate is positioned on the sculpted rear bumper.
Technical details and future
Toyota has not disclosed information about the type of powertrain of the concept. It is unknown whether it will become the basis for the next generation Corolla, expected in the coming years, or will remain only a design study.
Other Toyota concepts
The company also showed teasers of other interesting concepts, including futuristic and bright vehicles for children, a mobility device that allows people with disabilities to play tennis, spider-like vehicles for cargo transportation, and a simple cabin pickup for developing markets.
Details about them will be presented at the Toyota stand at Japan Mobility Show on October 30. The company also announced important news for Toyota GR, Lexus, Century, and Daihatsu sub-brands, which will be covered separately.
This presentation highlights Toyota’s strategy of expanding the range of vehicles adapted to different societal needs. The growing interest in electric models and universal solutions for urban environments could significantly influence the future development of the automotive industry, especially in the context of increasing competition among manufacturers.
