If it is well-maintained and passes quality inspections, it can continue to be driven indefinitely; there is no specific number of years it can still be driven. Related information: 1. Introduction: The Corolla is the tenth-generation straight-line upgrade of the Toyota COROLLA. This globally best-selling car, now produced by FAW Toyota, allows Chinese consumers to once again experience Toyota's latest technology and driving experience. 2. Expansion: The Corolla's body dimensions have significantly increased compared to the previous generation Corolla, presenting an unprecedented 'wide and low' stance while creating a more spacious interior. The newly developed 1.6L and 1.8L engines with dual VVT-i technology will deliver a more powerful driving experience.

I had a 2005 Corolla that lasted 18 years before being scrapped. Your 2008 model could probably hold on for another 5 to 8 years as long as it's well maintained. For example, changing the oil regularly every year and checking the brake system should keep it running smoothly if the mileage is under 150,000 km. My old Corolla started having minor engine issues after hitting 200,000 km, but replacing spark plugs or belts could keep it going. The key is not to ignore rust on the chassis or aging suspension, as these can affect handling if left unrepaired. I recommend finding a reliable repair shop for a full inspection every year—spending a little money upfront can prevent major repairs later. I’ve even seen 2000 Corollas still running on the road; Toyota’s durability is impressive, but each car is different—don’t push it until frequent breakdowns force your hand.
