I'm in Sao Paulo on a short business trip and Brazil is small car heaven, where the 9th Gen Corolla is popular and considered a medium/big car.
The differences are mostly small, coloured door handles, black bumper strip on the rear bumper, and other small cosmetic changes.
One difference I noticed, I think is actually big: The wheels are a 4-lug and not a 5-lug. Doesn't that afect more than the wheels, parts like brakes. So Toyota would have to make brakes for the 4-lug and the 5-lug. Would this affect other mechanical parts? What about the Corollas in the rest of the world?
