Here’s the Toyota Corolla Rumion, which Japanese customers will be able to buy starting today. The car, which has Toyota’s simple ‘relax in style’ design is the Japanese version of the scion xB and has two engine choices. The first one is a 1.5-liter VVT-i engine (143 g/km CO emissions) and the second one is a 1.8-liter Dual VVT-I (Dual Variable Valve Timing-intelligent) engine, which produces 151g/km of CO2 (10% less than Japanese regulations).
The Corolla Rumion will feature Toyota’s safety technologies, like SRS airbags, WIL (Whiplash Injury Lessening) front seats, an advanced GOA (Global Outstanding Assessment) collision-safety body, Eco Driving Indicator lights, Super CVT-i (Continuously Variable Transmission-intelligent) and Smart Entry & Start System among others.

Toyota 1/X Concept
As we said before, with the Tokyo Show close, we’re gonna be invaded with Asian concepts. After yesterday we’ve presented the Honda Puyo and the Honda Cr-Z Concept, today we’re gonna have a whole bunch of them. Here’s the first one, the Toyota 1/X Concept. The car, which looks a lot like the current Prius, is a concept vehicle that “maintains an interior space on par with that of the Prius.” Using carbon fiber reinforced plastic, Toyota engineers managed to reduce the weight of the Toyota 1/X concept to about one-third that of the Prius.
The 1/X uses fossil fuel (FFV) technology and a plug-in hybrid powertrain and is powered by a 500cc motor that allows charging from an external power source. Toyota says that the 1/X has a long electric-motor cruising range and while have low CO2 emissions. More photos after the jump.

Toyota Prius Facelift
Because developing the new battery technology will take Toyota a little more than they expected, the next generation Toyota Prius was delayed and Toyota is preparing a facelift for the current model, to spice it up a little. As we can see from these spy photos, the facelifted Prius features a new front part with new headlamps and grille and a new cut line in the hood. View more photos after the jump.
