The tenth-generation Corolla sedan that was launched in October 2006 acquired the subname Axio. Its body design, while retaining the general image of the previous model, won the 2007 Good Design Award.

All models of the Corolla Axio came standard-equipped with a rearview monitor, allowing the driver to see what was behind the car to facilitate reverse parking. The engine was either a 1.5-liter VVT-i (1NZ-FE) producing 110 PS (105 PS with 4-wheel-drive [4WD] model) or a 1.8-liter Dual VVT-i (2ZR-FE) developing 136 PS (125 PS with 4WD model). A Super CVT-i type transmission was adopted for both engines, with a difference that the 1.8-liter model came with a 7-speed sequential gearbox. In April 2010, the 1.8-liter engine was upgraded to the 2ZR-FAE with valvematic mechanism that offered better fuel economy.
