2000 Super Saloon (M)

S80 · 1974–1979RWD

The 2000 Super Saloon paired the 2.0 litre M inline-six with an automatic gearbox and rear drive. Fuel injection arrived on the M and the 2.6 litre 4M during this generation, along with Toyota's TTC-C catalytic converter system, whose badge showed a car qualified for lower emissions tax. It stayed in the shorter, narrower body that suited the 2.0 litre class.

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.
