The Corolla Nurburgring Edition Proves Toyota Is Exaggerating

Well, you may not believe this, but the automaker from Japan, Toyota, has actually built a Nurburgring Edition of its Corolla model. As a matter of fact, the car in question has even gone on sale in the country of the white elephants, Thailand.

Well, to be totally honest with you, it is a very rare occasion that Toyota uses the Corolla moniker with the infamous Nurburgring name. Nevertheless, the Thai division of Toyota has actually done just that. The company has taken the liberty of actually building a Nurburgring Edition for the Toyota Corolla. Reports mention that this particular edition of the Toyota Corolla is intended for the celebration of the Toyota Corolla Altis finishing at the seventh place during the 24-hour race at the Nurburgring track last year.

The Toyota Corolla Nurburgring Edition is a limited production vehicle model. The car is built by taking advantage of the chassis used on the Esport variant. Yet, the Japanese automotive marquee has also added some elements, such as, a piano black front grille, a prominently looking front bumper, a rear faux diffuser, a rear spoiler and also 17-inch alloy wheels. Also, when buyers of the vehicle step into the cabin of this very edition of the Corolla from Toyota, they will find black seats wrapped in fine leather material. In addition, they will also find red inserts on the dashboard as well as the door trims of the vehicle.

As for performance, the car receives its power from a 1.8L 4-cylinder engine that resides under its hood. Using a continuously variable transmission (CVT) system, the engine sends power to the front wheels of the car. This engine is also said to spit out a total power output and torque of 141 HP and 177 Nm. The car will reportedly have retuned suspension as well which will give it a superior handling level. Customers will be able to choose from two color choices for the car, the White Pearl or the Black Mica color.
