Corolla Sprinter is back!

The new Sprinter range builds is not only packed with extra features but also marks the return of the Sprinter name to the Corolla range for the first time in 10 years.

Externally the Corolla Sprinter is differentiated from the Corolla GLS by the addition of a body colour boot lid spoiler; 16-inch alloy wheels - as used on the RunX RSi models; body colour side protection mouldings and door handles, and "Sprinter" badges.
