Gaps in this history
- Wikipedia counts twelve Corolla generations; the eleventh is shown as two entries because Toyota sold the Japanese E160 and the larger international E170/E180 at the same time.
- Entries E30, E120 and E140 each cover a code pair that Wikipedia treats as one generation (E30/E50, E120/E130, E140/E150); the Sprinter-only codes E40 and E60 are not separate entries.
- Production dates are those given in each article for Japan or the first listed market; other markets started and ended at different times.
