Toyota Sera is an interesting car that was put into production in 1990. Most of the roof, from the windshield to the trunk lid, is made of glass. Coupled with the innovative butterfly door design, the tiny body of the Sera looks like a spaceship or a deep-sea sightseeing submarine. The design work of Toyota Sera began as early as the mid-1980s, when Toyota launched a plan called Young Project, hoping to launch a range of new cars suitable for young people's tastes. Sera’s design concept car AXV-II was exhibited at the Tokyo Motor Show in 1987. In fact, it is not a concept car with only an outer shell, but a car that can be driven, with an actual engine and gearbox. It shows that Toyota seems to be eager to actually build this kind of bold car. When the Sera (number EXY10) was launched in 1990, the market responded enthusiastically. Toyota originally estimated that they could sell 3,000 units a year, and finally sold 9,000 units in the first 12 months. It is a pity that Japan's subsequent economic problems, for Toyota Sera and other toys with strong characters, people's enthusiasm instantly collapsed, until the production was discontinued in 1995, Sera sold less than 16,000 units in total. Toyota Sera has not been officially imported to Hong Kong, and most of them were parallel imports back then as early Japanese JDM, Toyota JDM. In this episode, Lung Sir and Edmond Lau tested the Sera under the hot weather warning. Even with the strong air conditioner, the cabin temperature is like a greenhouse. To see what the duo thought of what was arguably the strangest Toyota car of the '90s, watch the video.
