Recent reports from Japan hint at the possible return of the Toyota Celica, retaining its traditional internal combustion engine and introducing an all-wheel-drive system.
The Celica’s development has reportedly been underway for several years, albeit under the radar. The new model is expected to feature a 2.0-liter turbocharged engine with AWD, reminiscent of the GR Yaris and GR Corolla systems, pointing towards a successor to the Celica GT-Four.
A beloved two-door coupe is rumbling back onto the scene! The legendary Toyota Celica, discontinued in 2006, might be getting a modern makeover. Rumors of its revival have been swirling for years, and it seems they could finally materialize.
Expected to debut as a concept at the 2025 Tokyo Auto Salon, the new Celica is poised to recapture its past glory. With a design echoing its heritage, a luxurious interior, and cutting-edge technology, this comeback could be a strategic win for Toyota, capitalizing on both nostalgia and the current market appetite for sporty coupes.
