The 2002 version of Toyota Celica is the last edition of this popular model which was first manufactured by the Japanese company in 1970.
The new model had a couple of improvements from the previous versions, no matter if we’re talking about engines, safety features or other upgrades. For example, since 2000, the seat-mounded side airbags are options for all Celica models while dual SRS airbags have been used since 1994. In 2005, Toyota announced that Celica will no longer be available in North America and Australia, the domestic market being the only one which would get upgrades in the future.
