During 1997 the Corolla passed the Volkswagen Beetle, so that by the close of the model year no nameplate in history had sold more. Japan saw a nose, tail and interior update in April, and the North American cars of 1998 were built at NUMMI in California or in Ontario. It was model year 3 of 5 in the Toyota Corolla (eighth generation, E110), 1995 to 1999, coming after the 1996 model year and before the 1998 model year. Model year pages for the Toyota Corolla run from 1966 to 2026.
