Toyota Corsa

The Toyota Corsa is the twin of the Toyota Tercel that was sold at Toyopet Store locations in Japan. While the Tercel was marketed through the Corolla Store and Diesel Store locations, a version badged Toyota Corsa was marketed in parallel through the separate Toyopet distribution network. In August 1980 the Tercel and Corsa underwent a facelift with considerable changes to the front and minor ones to the interior and rear. The Tercel and the Corsa were both offered exclusively with five-door or four-door sedan body styles, unlike the Corolla II, which was at first only available as a three- or five-door hatchback. The second generation Tercel was moved to the Vista sales network, while the Corsa stayed available through Toyopet stores. When Japanese production of the Tercel, Corsa and Corolla II came to an end in 1999, 4,968,935 examples had been built.
