Toyota Cressida Specs, Engines & Dimensions (1977–1981) — First Generation
The first-generation Toyota Cressida offers Sedan and Estate 5-door body styles. The Sedan suits everyday passenger use, while the Estate’s rear access makes it a practical choice if you regularly carry bulky luggage.
Toyota Cressida powertrain examples include the gasoline 2.0 AT Sedan and 2.0 MT in both body styles, all with rear-wheel drive. The automatic reduces your workload in stop-start traffic, while the manual gives you direct control over gear selection and requires you to operate the clutch.
