Why can't the ae86 be driven on the road?
1 Answers
Although the ae86 is very famous, it was never officially imported into China. If there are any, they were brought into the country through various channels, so the number of ae86s in China is very small. Even if there are any, very few meet the requirements for road use. As a car from the 1980s, production ceased early, and more than 30 years have passed since then. Most of these cars do not meet China's emission policies, and safety is also a serious issue. Additionally, considering the scarcity of repair parts, getting one on the road is extremely difficult. More details are as follows: 1. The ae86 is the fifth-generation model of the COROLLA first produced in 1983. The ae86 is just the chassis code for this model, and the official name of the car is "Corolla" or the fourth-generation Corolla. 2. In China, most people learned about the ae86 through the Japanese manga "Initial D" or the later adapted domestic movie of the same name. The code "ae86" already contains the basic information about this car: "A" represents the Toyota 4A series engine, "E" under Toyota represents the Corolla (the later Corolla), "8" represents the E80 series, which is the fifth-generation Corolla, and the final "6" represents the model version.
