I wouldn't call it attractive, but it's an improvement. But the competition still beats it hands down.

Yes, I know we don't get some of these cars, or they are more expensive. But still, why doesn't Toyota get it?

The doors look really cheap and easy to produce. Compare with http://car-buyers.ooyyo.com/data/carimages/dacialogan.jpg (very, very affordable car), http://images.paultan.org/images/Proton_Sa...oton_Saga_1.jpg and http://dayerses.com/data_images/posts/tata...ta-nano-07.jpg). Seems like curves and folds etc. are only for more expensive cars, because it makes manufacturing harder.

Korean cars designed by Europeans anyway (at least KIAs new design chef is the guy who was head of design for the whole VW group (including Lamborghini, Bugatti etc.)).

I mostly posted C segment hatchbacks though, they are better looking than their sedan version (always an afterthought).

Btw. http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-qjTcsG5jTMo/Ts5N...ota-Auris-1.jpg is what Toyota offers as their C segment hatchback in Europe. I think it's an improvement, although the Corolla posted here looks classier... more appropriate for Malaysia. http://www.toyota.de/cars/new_cars/auris/index.tmex More pics here.
