The Japanese automaker has been deeply preoccupied with its mid-size crossovers and SUVs over the past few months – the 2024 Toyota Grand Highlander and Lexus TX three-row family CUVs, the N400 Tacoma pickup truck, the returning 2024 Land Cruiser, the 2025 Crown Signia, or the 2025 4Runner all-rounder SUV. Now it's about high time for some passenger car love, right?
In the real world, the company is preparing to unleash the 2025 Camry, now exclusively a hybrid, as well as the subtly enhanced 2025 Crown, which has joined the Nightshade Edition family. Across the imaginative realm of digital car content creators, though, everyone and their mother only have eyes for the RAV4 best-selling compact CUV or for the equally popular Corolla compact passenger car series.
Toyota hasn't even started teasing them, but already, a lot of pixel masters and CGI outlets are trying to uncover all the juicy secrets behind the 2025 or 2026 RAV4 and Corolla families. As far as they are concerned, the Halo oto channel on YouTube provides fresh automotive info corroborated with their virtual designs; now, there are new CGI ideas about the upcoming Corolla as the next RAV4 isn't on their digital radar just yet.
The channel's resident pixel master was hard at work envisioning the upcoming 2025 model year iteration, but the Corolla doesn't get massive changes compared to the outgoing model – just like the 2025 Camry, it feels more like a refresh than an all-new thirteenth-generation. This safe approach is also used on the inside, where the main point of attraction – just like with the interior – is the changing CGI colors. What we see here is the sedan, by the way, but there's only a front POV together with the hypothetical look at the cockpit – the rear wasn't envisioned just yet.
By the way, the Toyota Corolla is one of the few automobiles out there that resides in vastly different segments – you can have it as a family sedan, it can be bought as one of the few remaining hot hatches out there, it can also be a sustainable hybrid model, and there's even the Corolla Cross version if you want a high-riding practical variant instead of the classic five-door station wagon model.
Naturally, with so many options, the Toyota Corolla is one of the best-selling models in the United States – it's currently number two in the compact car classification behind the Honda Civic, and its sales have gone up 39% during the first quarter of the year. Not bad for a model that appeared in 2019, right? So, it may be only natural if Toyota doesn't make any radical changes to the next iteration – it could easily just align it to the styling promoted by the Prius, Camry, and Crown, right?
