Blit iR-V 2.5 1JZ-GTE turbo RWD automatic Wagon

X110 · 2002–2006RWD

The Blit iR-V was the turbocharged top grade, with the 1JZ-GTE inline-six, rear-wheel drive and an automatic gearbox. Toyota dropped the engine in May 2006 under the 2005 emission rules, so the iR-V was built from 2002 only until then, while the wagon itself ran to June 2007.

STORY

The Mark II Blit appeared in Japan in January 2002 as the wagon version of the ninth-generation Mark II and replaced the front-drive Mark II Qualis. It returned the wagon to a rear-wheel-drive layout, with optional all-wheel drive. The 2.0-liter 1G-FE, the 2.5-liter 1JZ-FSE with direct injection and the turbocharged 1JZ-GTE were offered, in iR, iR-S and iR-V grades. The 1JZ-GTE was dropped in May 2006 because of the 2005 emission rules. The Mark II sedan ended in 2004, but the Blit stayed in production until June 2007, with 38,733 built. The front-drive Mark X ZiO minivan followed in September 2007.
