The 2008 corolla Altis will be 10mm longer, 60mm wider and 20mm lower than the current model. The wheelbase will be unchanged at 2,600mm, but with the wider track and lower center of gravity the handling should be noticeably improved. The extra width should also improve cabin space, and although slightly lower, the Altis is still 50mm taller than the Civic. The new corolla Altis will be powered by a 1.8L engine developing around 140bhp. This engine is a carryover from the existing corolla but will be tweaked for better performance. A four speed auto box will be offered as optional. However the new corolla Altis won’t come with diesel engine at least initially.
The bookings for the new corolla Altis has started and you can book the car by paying Rs 200,000 in Chennai. The new corolla Altis will be available for display in showrooms from third week of August and the official launch would happen sometime in September. The new corolla Altis will be priced around Rs 1,300,000.
