Year to Year Changes
1996 Toyota Tercel:
Cloth seat trim was a new option for the price-leader 2-door model (vinyl was standard).
1997 Toyota Tercel:
Tercel dropped to a single series, called CE, for '97. The CE blended features of the prior Standard series and the better- equipped DX. Four-speed manual shift was gone, and larger (175/65R14) tires replaced the original 155/80SR13 rubber.
1998 Toyota Tercel:
Initially, the 4-door body style was dropped, leaving only the 2-door CE. Grille, front fascia, taillamps, rear bumper, and bodyside moldings are new, and the rear seats gain headrests. Later, Toyota would drop the entire line in preparation for the introduction of the new Echo subcompact.
