Engine Performance

The restyled MR2 Turbo is equipped with a Toyota 2.0-liter 4-cylinder engine that utilizes a total of 16 valves. The engine is paired with a Toyota 5-speed transaxle. This configuration has proven to be a successful design for Toyota.

Steering control is handled through a manual-steering rack-style configuration. The MR2 has power-assisted brakes, with Non-ABS support. The front brakes are disc while the rear brakes are disc. The car uses coil front springs and coil in the rear.

The MR2 is 164.20 inches long, 66.90 inches wide, and 48.60 inches high. It has a wheelbase of 94.50 inches. It is able to seat 2 comfortably.

The listed retail price in 1992 (MSRP) was $17,658, with an invoice cost of an industry-high price. This price is slightly higher than the industry average price for a two-door Coupe.

Fuel Efficiency

The fuel system for the 1992 MR2 is a traditional MPI, running on gasoline fuel. The fuel is controlled by an electronic system and is a fuel-injected MFI design. The capacity of the fuel tank is 14.30 gallons.

The MR2 Turbo received a miles-per-gallon rating of twenty one in-city driving and twenty eight when it came to long-distance. Being a gas-powered non-green car, this was subpar.
