The 1927 Toyota Corolla recreated by artificial intelligence features a design that transports us to a time before its official debut in 1966. Although it is a digital recreation, this version allows us to visualize a hypothetical scenario where the Corolla was already driving on the streets nearly 40 years earlier.
Its interior, despite its simplicity, includes elements such as a three-spoke steering wheel with the Toyota logo and fabric-upholstered seats. The technical specifications include an inline 4-cylinder engine with approximately 2.0 liters of displacement, generating an estimated power of 40 hp. The transmission is a 3-speed manual with rear-wheel drive, mechanical drum brakes on all four wheels, and leaf spring suspension. The body is a 2-door coupe, with an estimated top speed of 100 km/h and whitewall tires.
Based on algorithms that combine historical data and design trends from the time, AI has managed to recreate this model with a vintage aesthetic inspired by vehicles like the Ford A. The compact 2-door body features rounded lines and chrome details that evoke the 1920s.
Artificial intelligence not only shows us what the Corolla might have looked like in 1927, but also invites us to imagine other models such as an Argentine Peugeot 504 in 2025. These recreations allow us to visualize alternative versions of iconic vehicles adapted to different eras.
