2000 Deluxe (5R)

S80 · 1974–1979RWD

The 2000 Deluxe was the base grade of the S80 range, with the 2.0 litre 5R four-cylinder, a manual gearbox and rear drive. Trim levels ran Standard, Deluxe, Super Saloon and Royal Saloon, so this sat second from the bottom. It was the last Crown generation with a one-piece front bench seat. Shorter than the 2.6 cars, it kept road-tax costs down.

STORY

The Toyopet Crown entered the Japanese market in January 1955. In 1964 the Crown Eight arrived with a 2.6-litre V8, and the Century, which went into production in 1967, was built on that V8 lineage. In July 2022 Toyota unveiled a new Crown family in four body styles, Crossover, Sport, Sedan and Estate, with the Crossover going on sale first, on 1 September 2022. The catalog files the Crown Eight, the S-series cars and the Sport under this one name, although they are very different machines.
