In the United States, most body styles were available, although the 1.4-litre and twincam engines were never offered. An optional engine with an SAE gross output of was added in September 1970. Either a four-speed manual or a two- or three-speed automatic were offered, until sporty five-speed coupés called the
S-5 and
SR-5 were introduced in 1972. In 1974, an SR-5 was entered by
Car & Driver magazine's team in SCCA competition. The E20 Corolla was also assembled in
Sydney, Nova Scotia by Canadian Motor Industries (CMI). CMI only ever assembled small numbers of Toyotas, as the finished cars cost ten percent more than a fully built up import and their quality was inferior; in 1974 Atlantic Canadian dealerships refused delivery of Canadian-assembled Corollas as a result. CMI ended operations in November 1975, after nearly 8,000 cars had been built there. The production tools were transferred to Ireland, where local assembly of the E20 Corolla had begun in February 1973. • 2T-C – 1.6 L (1,588 cc) I4, 8-valve OHV, carb, gross / net at 6,000 rpm US-market chassis: • KE20 - 2-door Sedan (Std.) • TE21 – 2-door/4-door Sedan • TE26 – Wagon • TE27 – Coupé (S-5, SR-5) ==Gallery==
