The 1970 Toyota Celica Model TA22 is a two-door, rear-wheel drive sports car that was introduced by Toyota in 1970. It was the first generation of Celica and was produced from 1970 to 1977.
The model was powered by a 1.6-liter 2T-B inline-four engine that produced an output of 115 horsepower. It had a top speed of 104 miles per hour and could accelerate from 0 to 60 miles per hour in 10.3 seconds.
The TA22 featured a sleek and sporty design with a long hood, short trunk, and sloping roofline. It had two small seats in the back that could fit smaller passengers. The interior had a simple and clean design with a three-spoke steering wheel, bucket seats, and a center console.
The TA22 was equipped with a four-speed manual transmission and independent suspension in the front and rear. It had disc brakes on the front wheels and drum brakes on the rear wheels.
The first-generation Celica was a popular car in its time and has since become a classic. The TA22 model is particularly sought after by enthusiasts due to its classic design, fun driving experience, and rarity. Today, well-preserved TA22s can command high prices at auction.
