History

Based on the results of the Tercel / Corsa, the drive system was changed to the horizontal front-wheel drive the P7 was a newly designed model with transverse engine and front-wheel drive as a car and van in some markets (EP76V) also existed, but unlike its predecessor, it had the same body as the 3-door hatchback passenger model.

The front suspension is a common MacPherson strut, but the lower arm has been redesigned from the previous I-shaped lower arm to the same L-shaped lower arm as the E8# Corolla/Sprinter to match the FF layout, and the rear suspension. is a simpler cheaper to make trailing twist beam (axle beam) with a configuration that minimizes the number of moving parts and parts.

There is a 1.0L displacement 1E type for European specifications. The deluxe was made-to-order and was equipped with a lean-burn engine low fuel consumption special "partial lean system specification” (model code EP70, engine code 1E, 40 kW) or with 1.3 l (model code EP71, engine code 2E, 55 kW) and is equipped with a 2E type in-line 4-cylinder SOHC 12-valve that uses a cross-flow bathtub combustion chamber (2E - ELU type is installed on the 3-door Ri and 3-door/5-door Si)

In Europe he was the last model with carburettor preparation (2-stage carburettor 1.0 litre, constant pressure carburettor at 1.3-liter engine). As of 1986, starlets now offered in Switzerland had a catalyst because of the stricter emission standards. In the last model year, the EP71 was also offered in other European countries with a combination of constant pressure carburettor and regulated catalyst.

The Starlet P7 was also available as Diesel (model code NP70, 40 kW) with 1.5 l prechamber diesel engine, engine code 1N the 1N type of 1.5L diesel engine was added for the first time through Publica and Starlet, and the model’s name was changed to NP70

In addition to the European versions such as the DX (replaced by the XL) and the S as a sporty variant, there was a turbo-S version (engine code 2E-TELU) especially for the Japanese market. This was equipped with a turbocharged 1.3-liter engine with gasoline injection. There was a grade for motor sports called Ri (naturally aspirated) Turbo R. Compared to the original sports grade Si Turbo S, comfort equipment such as unpainted bumpers and commercial grade interiors were removed, making it easier to modify to a competition vehicle. It was a popular model that succeeded the KP models and entered a wide range of competitions.

The 3-speed full automatic transmission was also available in many grades in line with the times, but the Ri-Si Limited, the cheapest passenger grade STD, and the van CD-L were not initially available. The 4-speed manual is set to the 2E's newly developed "new V-type carburettor" car. In 1987 

Unlike the other series, the P7 offered in Europe was not revised during the entire production period. Only towards the end of production were some special models offered. Options in some markets such as air conditioner and coloured bumpers was often sold on a limited basis.
