The Vios is actually not a Corolla (that is a larger vehicle called the Altis in Asia). The Vios is really more a sedan derivative of the Echo/Vitz hatch. They are visually very similar now, but are in fact different cars.

Yes, here in Malaysia it is called the Toyota Corolla Altis and sold for USD 33,221 (2.0) and USD 29548 which is higher, thanks to the government for heavy duty and tax. Actually, the Vios is similar to the Vitz Sedan. What can I say? Although it is reliable, you do not want to drive this car if you have another option. Yes, the Corolla Altis is better, but given any circumstance I would love to choose Civic 2018, which is sleeker, better performance and nice to drive too. Sigh...
