As a car enthusiast who often helps friends choose vehicles, I know very well that the Corolla is produced by FAW Toyota in China. GAC Toyota mainly manufactures the Levin, which can be considered a sibling model to the Corolla, but with different names and designs. The Corolla, being a globally best-selling model, has been domestically produced by FAW Toyota since its older generations, with mature production facilities in northern cities like Changchun. When buying a car, I prioritize brand reliability, and FAW Toyota's service and warranty are commendable. Don't get confused—GAC's Levin is more commonly seen in the south, but essentially, they share the same platform. If you're looking to buy a Corolla, just head to a FAW Toyota dealership. Some marketing campaigns can be misleading, but official data clearly states that the Corolla is FAW's product. I recommend checking Toyota China's official website to confirm and avoid any mistakes that might affect after-sales service.
I've been driving for over a decade. When I first bought the Corolla, I did my research—it's definitely a FAW Toyota product. GAC Toyota produces the Levin, which I remember launched around 2014 and is often confused with the Corolla. As an experienced owner, I can vouch for the Corolla's stable quality, FAW's reliable manufacturing processes, and their extensive after-sales service network. If you're buying a car, just ask the dealer to show you the identification plate—FAW Toyota's logo is clearly printed on the vehicle. GAC's Levin is more of a southern market product with slightly different configurations. Overall, the Corolla has higher sales volume and is unquestionably manufactured by FAW—don't fall for sales pitches. Here's a story: my neighbor almost bought the wrong model and only realized after comparing the rear badges, so it's best to test drive before purchasing. Safety-wise, both models are perfectly fine.
