Toyota presented the latest results of its technological R&D. In its passenger car booth, the company displayed the F110 luxury sedan at the center. The vehicle featured a unique 2-box silhouette with an ultra-short nose, a long cabin, and asymmetric doors, including sliding doors. These novel mechanisms and the unusual body-color drew visitors' attention.
The bizarre 1977 Toyota F110 was unveiled at that year's Tokyo Motor Show, depicting what a luxury sedan would look like in the coming decade. The idea was to maximize cabin space given dimensions defined by Japanese vehicle tax codes. As you may have noticed, the F110 is asymmetrical, with one long sliding door on the driver's side and a conventional door plus a sliding rear door on the passenger side (with no B-pillar).
