1      VERSATILITY AND CONVENIENCE
       Ample cargo capacity and 60/40-split folding rear
       seats give you lots of options to flex your space.
       A power liftgate is also available. And, it’s packed
with thoughtful comfort features, even for rear seat
passengers: they’ll love the rear seat vents, USB ports,
                                                                2         IT PACKS A PUNCH

3       TAKE YOUR PICK: FWD OR AWD
         The drivetrain will be available in both front-wheel
         drive and all-wheel drive configurations — a first
         for Corolla. The AWD version employs Toyota’s
clever Dynamic Torque Control system. It can direct up to

Toyota has never been one to rest
on its laurels.
    Yet the current transformation of the brand’s product
line — with 13 new models coming in the next year — kind
of takes your breath away.
    Recently, the company invited members of the
automotive media to its headquarters in Texas for a
multi-day, multi-vehicle reveal event.
    Here’s a roundup of some of what they saw and learned —
and what will soon be on display in your dealership’s
showroom.

2022 TOYOTA GR SUPRA A91-CF EDITION
To sports car enthusiasts the world over, the Supra
nameplate is synonymous with Toyota performance. This
latest generation keeps finding ways to blend speed, power,
and style with the introduction of the GR Supra A91-CF
(Carbon Fiber) Edition. Limited to just 600 vehicles, this
2022 special edition is the most exclusive Mark V Supra to
date. It offers all the style, performance and technology
that drivers expect, with an obsessive attention to detail
that fits a racing legend. With the bold, sleek look of carbon
fiber accents and a duckbill spoiler, this eye-grabbing new
limited-run special edition is sure to sell fast.

               2022 TOYOTA GR 86
               The car that marked the revival of Toyota’s sportscar
               lineage will now give drivers even more of the agility,
               style, and responsiveness they desire. For this round, the
               detail-obsessed Toyota Gazoo Racing team brings enhanced
               handling and exterior aerodynamics, increased power, and
               an upgraded interior. These changes earn it a Gazoo Racing
               badge, joining Toyota’s ever-growing, global sportscar line
               as the all-new 2022 GR 86. Learn more here.

2022 TOYOTA TACOMA TRD PRO
When it comes to true off-road performance, taking the trail
less traveled isn’t suited for amateurs. That’s where TRD Pro
comes in. From the beginning, TRD Pro vehicles were
designed to take off-road performance to the next level
using parts designed and tested by the Toyota Racing
Development team. The Tacoma TRD Pro is taking the next
step in its evolution. For the 2022 Tacoma TRD Pro, off-road
performance goes up a notch — literally! The next-generation
Tacoma TRD Pro will employ TRD-tuned Fox internal bypass
shocks designed to deliver exceptional on- and off-road
performance, but the crucial suspension change will be a
taller suspension lift — 1.5 inches up front and 0.5 inches
at the rear. Learn more here.

               2022 TOYOTA TACOMA TRAIL EDITION
               Modern times require modern vehicles and, arguably, one
               theme rises above the rest for vehicle attributes: versatility.
               One of the greatest multi-purpose vehicles on the market is
               the mid-size pickup truck leader, 16 years and running: the
               Toyota Tacoma. First introduced last year, the Tacoma Trail
               Edition returns with an emphasis on storage, styling, value,
               and a focus on off-road performance built around the Tacoma
               4×4 Double Cab. Learn more here.
