look, i think most of us can agree that it's most likely coming. but so far these are the only teasers from Toyota. everything else, even though it may or not seem plausible or likely is just hearsay until we get a press release.

Just rehashing the same old stuff. Nothing substantial about it.

Yeah that was me. Funny enough, I’ve been sending pictures of Corolla hatches to my wife for her to consider a GR Corolla next year. (She hates hatches)

And I ended up spotting the thing lmao.

I know Toyota loves to tease us. But I'm just gonna lower my expectations and assume that little camo spec is some new performance CUV since that's the trend.

Zero shot it is a troll. They would have taken it down. What is is funny is that it took this long for anyone to notice. I mean, who the F clicks an insta post of a corolla interior?

But yea, given the caption is "Keep Them Guessing," with #corollahatchback, I'll assume the content of the picture is about as much confirmation as you can have, short of a press release.

When I say trolling, I mean they really thought it through and kept it under the radar. Even though I found it not long ago it was posted on the 28th of October without anyone saying much.

It’s great though, glad to contribute to the car community in a good way. It’s a car I’m really thinking about getting.

Tried to zoom in as much as I could and the only real details found that Kirk agreed on was the grill is definitely shaped like the Corolla’s. To me the body looks kind of short like the Yaris but it’s too blurry to say “yeah it’s a 3 door.” Hopefully we see real leaks or a reveal soon.

Yeah that’s true. Nothings official yet so it’s all opinion. I just give ballpark answers like 36-40k and possibly 2900-3000lbs. Toyota needs to just release the thing. Give us all the throwbacks to the Corolla rally racing and the AE86 driving around.
