Toyota Model Codes Explained.	Sun, 01 August 2004 10:51

Thought you all might be interested in this. I knew the meaning of some of the letters in the model code but not all of them. Note: I tried to modify this information so it was relevant to all toyotas. As an example, the Aus Spec ST185 GT-Four Group A model code is explained below: Model: ST185R-B L M Q Z Q Key: 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 Legend: 1. Basic model code (I'm sure you all know this bit) e.g. AT180= 4A-FE engine ST182= 3S-FE or 3S-GE engine ST183= 3S-FE or 3S-GE engine with 4WS ST184= 5S-FE engine ST185= 3S-GTE engine with 4WD 2. Steering wheel position / body shape H= Wide body (seen in Japan only) G= Wagon / Van L= Left hand drive R= Right hand drive 3. Model name in the same platform e.g. A= Corona B= Celica C= Carina D= Caldina 4. Body style C= Coupe E= Sedan G= 3 door Hatchback H= 5 door Hatchback L= Liftback K= Convertible T= Hardtop W= Passenger Wagon X= Cargo Wagon 5. Transmission A= 5 speed auto F= 6 speed manual H= 3 speed auto K= 4 speed manual M= 5 speed manual P= 4 speed auto 6. Grade B= Base R= Standard D= Deluxe N= Mid-level (General) M= Mid-level (Upgrade) Y= Luxury (small car) E= Luxury (non-luxury car) S= Sports, normal performance G= Higher grade (general) V= Luxury sports Z= High performance (not top of the line) Q= The highest grade (ultimate in luxury or performance) e.g. for the ST185 S= ST, SR G= ZR, GT, 2.0 GTi-16 V= GT-R, GT-S, GT-Four A Q= GT-Four RC / Group A / WRC Z= GT-R Active Sports 7. Engine (anyone know any more of these?) K= Twincam EFI Z= Twincam EFI Turbo F= Twincam EFI (high performance) S= Single cam, carburettor E= Single cam, EFI B= Hybrid X= SOHC, Diesel, Turbo Y= Twincam, EFI, Turbo 8. Destination A= USA K= Canada Q= Australia W= Europe G= General & some Europe _= General [edited to include crappy diesel wagon details ] [note: Original table is believed to be from Allwheelmotion http://www.allwheelmotion.com/arvinfaq.htm] [Updated on: Mon, 31 October 2005 08:25] [Report message to a moderator]
