Toyota has announced that the Corolla name will return to the UK, attached to the new small family car that will replace the Auris in early 2019.
The new Corolla will be made in hatchback, saloon and estate form, based on the Toyota New Global Architecture (TNGA) platform.
More than 45 million Corollas have been sold worldwide since 1966, but the name has not been seen here since 2007 when the first Auris was introduced.
Details of the new model are scarce at this early stage, but Toyota says all body styles will come with hybrid powertrains.
The new Corolla will make its debut in the hatchback and Touring Sports estate shapes at the Paris Motor Show on 2 October.
Toyota Europe CEO Dr Johan van Zyl said: "The TNGA engineering and design philosophy brings a whole new dimension to our next generation C-segment models.
"Adding to Corolla's renowned quality, desirability and reliability, it delivers the more emotional values that our customers aspire to: such as a distinctive design, interior refinement, rewarding driving dynamics and powerful yet efficient hybrid electric powertrains."
