Forza Horizon 4: Two Toyotas from the 70s

After a silent first half of the Series 23 update of Forza Horizon 4, the second half shows that they're back in business with four returning Toyotas in store for this Series. Right now, there are two returning Toyotas that can be obtained from this Series' Winter Horizon Playlist and these Toyotas came from the 70s; the first-generation Celica and the two-door second-generation Toyota Corolla.



First up, the first-generation Celica. Launched at the end of 1970, the Celica was meant to be the spiritual and affordable successor to the legendary 2000GT although the styling can be utterly mistaken for a Ford Mustang. Offered in a choice of a two-door coupe and a three-door liftback, the Celica is powered by a choice of a 1.4L, a 1.6L, and this; a 2.0L four-cylinder engine that produces 90hp of power.



Lastly, the coupe version of the second-generation Toyota Corolla. Launched in May 1970, the second-generation Corolla marked the evolution of what was known to be one of Toyota's longest-running nameplates in history, only behind the Crown. Throughout this generation, they've launched a two-door coupe version known as the Corolla Levin, the one seen here. The Levin is powered by a 1.6L four-cylinder engine mated to a 5-speed manual gearbox. Early models get about 100PS of power while the one with the 2T-G engine produces about 115PS of power.



Now that we get to know these two Toyotas, let's give 'em the old "twist 'n shout" approach just to see how capable these icons are.

Job well done. There's nothing else I can say.

Enjoy your new rides!
