1994-1999 Toyota Celica: Overview

Vehicle Highlights

Curvaceously redesigned for 1994, Toyota's front-drive sports coupe came as a 2-door notchback or hatchback, in base (ST) or more costly GT guise. Dimensions grew slightly, including a 2-inch increase in overall width. The fresh front end sported four round headlights. Dual airbags were standard, and antilock braking optional. The previous-generation All-Trac and convertible models did not return. A new 1.8-liter, dual-overhead-cam 4-cylinder engine went into the ST, while the sportier GT got a carryover 2.2-liter four. Celicas employed a standard 5-speed manual gearbox, but a 4-speed automatic transmission could be installed in any model.
