Toyota is expanding its classic-car rental offering with a 1990s coupe known for its gullwing doors and unusually large glass canopy. The model stands apart from the marque's more familiar heritage vehicles through a design that prioritised visibility and theatrical entry.

According to Motor1, the coupe joins an expanding selection of older Toyota vehicles available for rental. The move gives enthusiasts a route to experience a car that has long occupied a niche place in the company's history.

The expansive glazed roof structure remains the vehicle's defining feature, creating an airy cabin appearance while making the gullwing arrangement central to its identity. Its unconventional proportions and canopy design also reflect the experimental character of Japanese car design during the 1990s.

Adding the coupe to a rental fleet places greater emphasis on access rather than ownership. For collectors and fans, the programme offers a chance to drive a rare design without requiring the long-term commitment and specialist upkeep associated with an ageing classic.
