Toyota Corolla Furia Concept


Toyota has revealed its Toyota Corolla Furia concept car at the Detroit motor show, the firm's first clues as to the future direction of its best-selling saloon.

The Furia is the latest in a string of recent concepts from Toyota with bolder and more distinctive designs, following a personal plea from company chief Akio Toyoda for the firm to become more daring and break free of its conservative image and appeal to younger buyers.
The concept is 4620mm long, 1805mm wide and 1425mm high, with a wheelbase of 2700mm giving it relatively short overhangs. The concept is boldest at its front, with the design a much more striking interpretation of the look found on the new European-market Auris.
A sharply raked windscreen and low roofline ensure a lower, sleeker profile than that of Toyot's current Corolla. A usual array of more outlandish concept features make it onto the Furia, including 19in alloys, lashings of carbonfibre trim and a large rear diffuser with integrated exhausts.
The Corolla Furia Concept is an early indicator of where our compact car design may lead in the future, said Toyota vice president Bill Fay at the concept's unveiling in Detroit. He hoped the design would surprise a lot of people".
