Default 75 Years of TOYOTA = They made that?

Stumbled upon this crazy interactive tree - never heard of some of them.

A few things I learned.


1. Toyopet as a "brand" ?

2. There once was a Celica Camry! Was looking really hard to find a Supra Tercel but no luck.

3. Outside N.A., Toyota was as guilty as the big three regarding "Badge Engineering" back in the 80s and 90s.

4. I had forgotten about the rebadge of the Chevy Cavalier to Toyota Cavalier for the Japan market. Didn't last long it seems.

5. And over 100 different model names!!!

Nice find!
