The Toyota Mark II is largely unheard of in the United States, as it was never officially sold here. The name first appeared as the Corona Mark II in 1968. Nine generations were made, each one appearing every four years. By the time the second generation came in 1972, the Corona was a separate model. The second generation would be the only one in the line-up to adopt the famous “coke-bottle” styling that was becoming desirable in Japan, too. It was the first time that an in-line six would be offered for the Mark II.
Logically, 1976 coming around meant the third generation’s appearance was due, and it duly came. The third generation was more luxurious, using rear suspension from the larger Crown, plus a better-equipped interior. More powerful engines were offered, as was a diesel engine choice. This is also where two spin-offs emerged, namely the Chaser and Cressida.
The fourth generation came in 1980. It featured all-new, squarer styling, plus a turbocharged engine option, plus the 1G 2.0-liter in-line six that would continue until the end of the Mark II’s run. Then, the fifth generation’s arrival in 1984 also brought around a station wagon option, a turbodiesel engine choice, and more luxury features.
1988’s sixth generation is where the famous 1JZ-GE and 1JZ-GTE were fitted into the Mark II. Meanwhile, the 1G engine was now available with a supercharger, and called the 1G-GZE. Six-cylinder variants could also be equipped with Toyota’s adjustable TEMS suspension.
The seventh generation of 1992 brought updated styling, and a proper performance variant. The Tourer V trim came with a 280-horsepower 1JZ-GTE, a manual gearbox, and a limited-slip differential. This made it popular with the drift community. At the other end of the spectrum, the Groire and Grande trims added plenty of standard luxury features.
The eighth generation was introduced in 1996, and marked the end of a four-cylinder gasoline powertrain option. Only in-line sixes were offered, and the Tourer V performance trim continued. All-wheel drive became available from this generation too. There was also a Tourer S, which had a naturally aspirated 1JZ-GE, plus an automatic gearbox.
The ninth generation of 2000 was the final one, before the Mark II became the Mark X. It featured curvy styling, and a wagon variant, called the Blit was also offered. A minor facelift was performed in 2002, mainly at the front end of the car.
