2014 Toyota Corolla S Teased Before June 6 Debut
Toyota has already teased the upcoming Corolla with the Furia Concept, but now the brand has released the first official photo.
The styling of the new Corolla is expected to take a major departure from the current car, borrowing cues that were introduced by the Furia Concept. From a technical perspective, the new Corolla is expected to stay close to the same.
According to a leaked order guide, the 2014 Corolla will get its power from a 1.8-liter four-cylinder engine that includes the automaker’s Valvematic continuously variable valve timing and lift system. The current Corolla also uses a 1.8-liter four cylinder, though that engine only has variable valve timing.

For transmissions, the base four-speed automatic is expected to stay, though a new CVT will be introduced to higher trim levels. A six-speed manual transmission will also be available.
On the sidelines of the Detroit Auto Show, a Toyota said that the new Corolla will top 40 mpg, as well as offer a sporty driving experience.
