I think you overestimate the Corolla's drawing power and Toyota's competitive abilities. I'm not referring to sales figures, but whether a hybrid system in a Corolla can attract buyers. All the same, if and when Toyota makes hybrids out of the Yaris and Corolla, they will have to be stripped down systems, like "mild" hybrids or nothing more than auto stop. Just enough for them to say that they did it.
