The most popular car in the world.
When the first Corolla rolled out of Toyota’s Takaoka factory in Japan in 1966, the company
announced that they planned to produce 30,000 of them a month – a greater number as any
model of car ever. The company wanted it to be best family vehicle in the world – and the
succeeded, eventually. Or at least the Corolla is the world’s more popular car, with sales now
much high than any car in history: 40 million units. For many years, the Corolla sold similar
numbers to the Volkswagen Type 1 Beetle, which was as popular and pracJcal as the Corolla.
In fact, the Beetle was the first car ever to sell two million units, which happened in 1981. But
then the Beetle had an advantage, because its producJon began nearly thirty years early than
the Corolla, in 1938. But then type 1 Beetle producJon ended in 2003, the Corolla conJnued
to become more popular every year, and finally took its place as the world’s most favorite car.
