I usually see the Corolla as the Japanese replacement for the VW Beetle, as it's known as a reliable and relatively simple car. And just like the Beetle retained some different versions of its engine according to market requirements such as a higher displacement-biased taxation, nowadays the Corolla is still available in some parts of Asia, Africa and Latin America with simpler engines which have already been phased out in Brazil, Europe and United States.
