Commenting on the month’s performance, Mr. Sandeep Singh, Deputy Managing Director-Marketing TKM, said, "The Corolla Altis Diesel that was launched at the end of July has lived up to our expectations with around 2000 bookings since its launch. August also marked the first anniversary of the Fortuner in India, as well as reaching the milestone of 10,000 units sold which we celebrated by introducing the Fortuner Anniversary Edition."
We test drove the Corolla Altis Diesel recently. Check out what we thought about the car. With the Etios in the pipeline, Toyota is looking forward to a year where it might just rule the Hatchback segment.
