Depending of the market, the wagon was named in various ways, including “Sprinter Carib”. toyota_tercel_4wd_wagon_9 The US version was called the All-Trac, while the European version just went with Corolla 4WD Wagon. toyota_sprinter_carib_8 toyota_sprinter_carib_14 Some of the Japanese market models clearly resembled Subaru Legacy wagons in their detailing. toyota_sprinter_carib_10_2 And of course, the interior shots showed a fully loaded dashboard and an automatic shifter. toyota_sprinter_carib_7 (1) Dazzle!
