Toyota is once again surprising car enthusiasts with the introduction of a new version of its iconic hatchback—the 2026 Corolla Hatchback FX Edition. This special model is limited to just 1,600 units for the U.S. and is set to be a true gem for fans of retro designs and modern technology.

Inspired by the spirit of the '80s and the legendary FX16 model, the new FX Edition not only brings back stylish elements of the past but blends them seamlessly with current automotive trends. What makes this version so special? First off, the glossy white 18-inch alloy wheels—a nod to the past with a modern edge. The black sport wing and FX16 badges on the rear evoke the brand’s rich history.

But the exterior is not all that’s special! Under the hood, you’ll find a 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine delivering 169 horsepower and 151 lb-ft of torque. This powerful engine ensures excellent performance with an estimated 33 MPG combined rating (around 7.1 l/100 km).

Inside, it’s all about comfort and a sporty vibe: black sport seats with suede inserts and orange contrast stitching, along with contrasting accents on the doors, steering wheel, and shift boot. A 7-inch digital gauge cluster and a wireless charging pad come as standard features.

Toyota hasn’t forgotten about high-tech features either. The 8-inch multimedia system supports Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, as well as voice commands via "Hey Toyota." Connectivity and safety are enhanced with Wi-Fi Connect, Remote Connect, Safety Connect, and Service Connect.

The FX Edition is available in three vibrant colors: Ice Cap, Inferno, and Blue Crush Metallic. Pricing has not been announced yet, but there’s no doubt this model will be a valuable addition to Toyota’s lineup.

The Toyota Corolla Hatchback FX Edition is more than just a car. It’s a powerful blend of nostalgia and modern technology, sporty driving, and refined design. If you want to stand out on the road and become part of automotive history, don’t miss your chance to grab one of the 1,600 units. The official debut is this fall!
