Toyota Furia Corolla Concept

As it turns out there is other news from the Detroit Autoshow this week. Who would have thunk it? Toyota has released what they call the Furia Corolla Concept which is a tease of some of the design cues that could be on the next Corolla. At this point you might be asking yourself why I’m bothering covering this? Well small cars are important.
