Toyota Cressida

Automobiles

The Toyota Cressida is the name under which Toyota marketed the Mark II in most export markets between 1976 and 1992, across four generations. For export markets the Corona Mark II was renamed the Cressida, a nameplate not used in Japan, and the name derives from the lead character of William Shakespeare's play Troilus and Cressida. Toyota replaced the rear-wheel-drive Cressida in North America with the front-wheel-drive Avalon, and the introduction of the Avalon in the American market in 1995 filled some of the gap left by the cancellation of the Cressida after the 1992 model year. Every Mark II and Cressida was manufactured at the Motomachi plant at Toyota, Aichi, Japan, from September 1968 to October 1993. Cressidas sold in California had the TTC-C technology to comply with emissions regulations.
