Toyota Celica 2.0 GT-i Liftback - striking turnaround

September 19, 2019 — Bruno von Rotz 63

The year 1985 was a shock for fans of the traditionally designed Toyota Celica, as the fourth generation came with front-wheel drive instead of rear-wheel drive, a transversely mounted four-cylinder engine and aerodynamically rounded bodywork. But even traditionalists had to admit that the new coupé was much better than its predecessors. But the model had not become cheaper. This driving report tells the story of the fourth generation of the Toyota Celica, describes driving impressions and shows an original example with an almost unique history in pictures.
