There's a change of production plans for Toyota's next generation of C-segment hatchback and sedan models in Europe.

According to an announcement made today, the Japanese automaker will invest €265 million (US$355 million) to produce the replacements of the Auris 3-door and 5-door hatchbacks at its UK assembly plant and add C-segment sedan production in Turkey.

With the Corolla having received a mild refresh only a year ago, Toyota focused its attention on simply improving the feature content for the new model year.

The 2012 Corolla L grade model gains color-keyed power side mirrors, along with power windows with driver’s auto-down, power door locks and remote key-less entry, while the better equipped LE trim adds standard 16-inch wheels and steering wheel audio controls. The higher-end S model gains a double-stitch accent to its seats for 2012.
