Not surprising since the car really looks stunning compared to the previous gen. Even interiors looks decent for this class of vehicles. If they price this car right in India it may be a hit.

As expected! Love this generation Corolla and I am sure the Indian market will respond well as they did for the previous generations.

Looks wise it is appealing well with the right design bits inside and out. Waiting for the prices for the car. If they seem with them will start coaxing dad to buy it!
