Author: The MR2 Base is equipped with a Toyota 2.2 liter four-cylinder engine that utilizes 16 valves. The engine is mated to a Toyota 4-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 comes equipped with 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.
Vehicle Statistics
The dimensions of the MR2 Base are 66.90 inches wide by 164.20 inches long. It sits 48.60 inches off the ground. It seats a standard two passengers, with 2 doors. The wheelbase of 94.50 allows for extra leg room for the rear passengers.
A powertrain guarantee is provided (50,000* miles/36* months), and a 50,000* mile, 60* month guarantee also comes with the Toyota MR2. This is standard for the price range.
The listed retail price in 1992 (MSRP) was $17,658, with a dealer invoice cost of an industry-high price. This price is on target the industry average price for a two-door Coupe.
Fuel Efficiency
The 1992 MR2’s exceptional fuel system runs on gas. The fuel is regulated electronically, with a fuel-injected multi-port fuel injection style of design. The fuel capacity of the car is 14.30 gallons.
The 1992 MR2 gets 28 miles/gallon on the highway and only 21 in the city. This is subpar for a coupe car.
We Think…
There are several reasons why the Toyota MR2 Base sold well in 1992. Mainly the increase in availability and a marked improvement in quality meant the buying public was more apt to choose a Toyota, specifically a MR2.
