Corolla 09, goes official in Pakistan

Wait is over for corolla lovers. enthusiast will soon be seeing new corolla on roads in pakistan. though, it has already been sighted being transported on national highways. specifications are not yet public, car freaks are of the view that it will replace ALTIS. Toyota Indus has managed to loyalize eroding customers as far as newer European alternatives like VW are not available in the local market. seems to me that they have changed the old policy of continuing with the old shape at least which is a trademark of Toyota in Pakistan.

D4d is not successful in pakistan as diesel quality is very poor, there is a lot of contamination in it. You may ask any VIGO owner for fuel pump and injector problems.
Diesel noise has really gone down in this new model . Plus EPS has made the drive very light.(this is official version)
