I'm eyeing a 2020 Corolla HB base 6MT ;)

also, 3 doors are better performance vehicles, two less doors means a stiffer chassis. everyone just wants 4 doors because we live in america and everyones busy and has a family.

also the new corolla hatch is ugly, like fat whale blob ugly.

Also to the insurance companies, 4 door means you're responsible. 2 door means you have a death wish.... judging by their premiums on 2 door economy cars

Seriously!
If your above "leaked" photo is to be realized, then that iteration marks the first ever Vitz 3 door. The 3 door Echo and Yaris we have are in fact a North American phenomenon. Count the doors made available to the rest of the world. It is not 3. 4 doors is global, not "American".

As for the insurance statement, that is so untrue. An insurance company cannot make a willy nilly decision to surcharge a 2 door variant of a 4 door.

So you're saying a 2 door Honda civic is the same on insurance as a 4 door? I don't believe. Lol

Makes me wanna find a 2008 4 door, get the vin and call the ins. To find out

Not what I'm saying. If it is more then it is because the historical accident frequency and repair costs have proven to be higher than a 4 door. Your statement implied the belief that premiums are higher just because of the number of doors.

While you are right about this, I did pay more for my 05 Echo 3 doors than I would have on a 05 Echo RS 5 doors. I was told by the agent the 2 doors was categorized as sports, so it'd cost more.. and it was my first new car at the time.

Honestly, I should have bought a Celica or something back in the days.

4 door anything is more popular in american 3 door modern yarises did not sell because there is no market for them, everyone it isnt the 90s and early 2000s anymore, people uber and whatnot making 4doors very popular, nobody races anymore and barely anyone buys the yaris 2018 sold 1,000 something.

if 3 doors were popular toyota wise then they would sell, using old models and old figures is just clutching at your pearls.
