Heartbreakid 6th Gear September 19, 2019 Share September 19, 2019 This time round, some other Asean countries, have received the new Corolla Altis much faster than us. Seems like ours still clearing the current stock of Altis. No news on the launch of the new model yet. ↡ Advertisement 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unless BM has cleared all the current gen altis. No wonder recently there is always promotion on altis. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

JDM, North America and Europe Corollas uses way more advanced engines as compared to our SE Asia markets ones. SE Asia is a good place for big companies to dump their valueless hardware here and market them like they are prized collectibles. This is where easy profits came in. How else do u explain POS eg Avanza, Innova etc still able to sell in this part of the world despite there atrocious crude and rough platform? https://www.toyota.co.th/altis/ https://paultan.org/2019/09/12/2019-toyota-corolla-now-open-for-booking-in-malaysia/?utm_source=featuredpostsdesktop-2019-toyota-corolla-now-open-for-booking-in-malaysia&utm_medium=internallinks&utm_campaign=internallinks JDM still use ZR & NR. Where got advance? Maybe 8NR more advance. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whats the point of all these body kits if our G12 Corolla remains the same antique underpowered 1.6L like today? We cannot even get a proper 1.8L model like we used to do back in the G9 Altis days Anyway that bodykit looked so tired these days. Toyota still believes bodykits can make their cars go faster. The kit just doesn't have the kind of subtle elegance modern cars are designed around. This kit made the G12 looked like the crude and brash bodykits as found in the G9 Hipporolla That factory HU tiny buttons looked so cheap and difficult to read and use.

That large 2DIN hole with a locally fitted HU sure made the car looked so late 1990s LOL. Although Bolehland doesn't have SMLJ OMV thingy, they are very sensitive to prices too for this new G12 Corolla prices has risen significantly while still running on the old 1.8L engine. And I can bet anyone to the moon and back that our G12 Altis will be equipped exactly like this so that BM can save some money on OMV. Perhaps we may even loose Toyota Sense since Altis buyers can't recognize nor need such high tech stuff Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
