There are many controversies on the Internet for this appearance, and public opinion almost complained one by one, "the ugliest crown in history", "This appearance is hard to describe", "the momentum of the previous crown"... Toyota seems to be unable to step on the aesthetic points of the Chinese people.
Some netizens also said that this is not the crown, it is simply the next generation of Corolla PLUS.
