GT5 Transcripts/Toyota SERA '92

Toyota unveiled a futuristic-styled concept car, characterized by its upswing doors and round capsule-like body. It drew such rave reviews from the media and press alike that the car made it to production as the Sera in March 1990, with its futuristic design left completely intact.
The car's most notable aspect was its door that swing up gullwing style. In addition, the cabin was wrapped in curved glass all the way around. This canopy design was reminiscent of a light airplane, and the car's form was achieved through the use of a new hydraulic pressure-forming technology. The floor was based on the Starlet, a compact car made by Toyota at the time. The Sera measured 151.9 inches long, 64.9 inches wide, and 49.8 inches high. The interior adapted the same futuristic form as the exterior with a radical dashboard design that was highlighted by an attractive instrument cluster. The interior was also spacious, complete with a small rear seat that made the Sera a true 4-seater.
The engine was a 1.5-liter DOHC inline-4 that produced 108 HP. It was mated to a 5-speed manual gearbox or a 4-speed automatic transmission. The suspension utilized struts up front and a torsion beam at the rear. Although production of the Sera ended in 1995, because of its innovative and radical styling, it has become a cult classic.
