This is the first time Toyota has used a matte paint color on a mass-produced car in Europe. In addition, the company has also added a Storm Grey metallic color option, suitable for both sedan and hatchback body styles.

The Mid+ Sedan will have a separate Samara seat design.

In addition, the company also added some ADAS features such as blind spot warning, safe exit assistance, parking brake assistance... In terms of operation, the 2026 Corolla still uses two hybrid powertrain options: 1.8L (138 horsepower) and 2.0L (178 horsepower). Notably, the capacity of the 2.0L version has been adjusted down compared to the 2025 version (193 horsepower), but Toyota has not yet given a specific reason for this change. All new Corolla versions are equipped with the Toyota Safety Sense safety package and an entertainment system that supports over-the-air (OTA) software updates. A 12.3-inch digital display continues to be standard equipment, similar to the high-end GR Corolla model.
