By Charles Pennefather26 May 2014

Reliability. It’s what we seek in life: a stable job, a stable set of relationships, and most definitely a car that will not break. Failing that, one that repairs easily. Gone are the days when cold-start problems were forgiven in vehicles. In fact, just being reliable isn’t enough – the product needs to be exciting.48 years and 40 million units later, the Corolla doesn’t need to prove its reliability. However, it certainly needs to inject some excitement into itself, and that’s exactly what the 2014 year model aims to add to what was already the best-selling diesel sedan in its segment in the Indian marketplace.
