Official: Toyota dropping the Matrix after 2013 (from U.S.)

[Kal-El]

Sales have been dwindling in recent years so we will not see a next generation model alongside the new Corolla sedan. Too bad.

It seems like Toyota keeps dropping key models. No sub-compact sedan. No compact wagon. Of course, the rest of the world gets all kinds of choices in these segments.

I see tons of Matrix's on the road with combined sales over 10 years but I guess Toyota doesn't feel it's worth it to bring a fresh new model over. I think a new one would really revitalize sales but oh well.
